My Morning Routine
Now that I have a full time job, scheduling all the things I want to do has been tricky. I miss having more time during the week, however, now that I have to schedule things like work and my hobbies it’s making me a better planner and less lazy.
Before, I’d put things off and think, I’ll eventually get to it. But now, I’m trying to make sure I get to it sooner rather than later. There are a few excuses that I use when I can’t though. Filming requires good lighting, and I use the sun still, I don’t have lighting equipment. But that’s something I’m considering more and more lately.
Blogging however, does not require much. It just requires me to sit at my computer and type of entires that I’d like to discuss. For this entry, I’d like to discuss my now typical morning routine.
I filmed a little vlog for it too. I had fun filming it but I couldn’t film certain parts, like walking into work. I’m sure I could have but I’m not yet comfortable with filming in public quite yet. Plus, the job is still new so I should still be on egg shells. But next time, I might do like a weekly-Life blog. Film a bit every day and then combine it into one video at the end of the week. We shall see. It’s just an idea, I just like working on new videos and improving on my editing.
Other than that, work has been going well. I already have deadlines and projects to work on. I’m also working on Mind-Speak projects as well. It’s all about planning and making time for everything. Wish me luck. 🙂
How are you with planning out work and hobbies? Do you have any secrets?
Thanks for reading and watching

I loved watching your vlog! It was very well done!
I’m a student so I can’t really work full time right now. But I’m looking forward to after graduation and routine that comes with a full-time job.
Enjoy!

@Cassidy,
Thank you!!!
I’m still learning how to edit, but so far so good. 🙂
And you’re gonna love it! I was super excited to finally graduate. And I’m so happy that I was able to find a job. But there’s nothinges wrong with enjoying the time you have left as a student. Less responsibilities and Spring break off. XD Good luck with school!

Wishing you the best of luck with your job, and keeping up with your hobbies. As for the answers to your questions, I’m much better at keeping other people organized and on task. I tend to exist in a state of organized chaos. 🙂

@Jessica, Thank you so much, I hope to keep myself organized. So far it’s been ok, so I’m hoping to keep it up.
And I like that, a chaos you can organize. XD
Thanks for reading!

Woot! Glad you have a routine because the closest thing I have is taking care of my dog Marley either by letting her use the bathroom and feeding her. This is all done early in the morning at 5 am and 11 am. Good luck with your job!

@Michelle, Thanks!! And wow, I can’t imagine having to take care of someone else’s needs, such as a pet. I have my own needs that get in the way sometimes. XD
Thanks for reading!

I enjoyed the video, thank you for taking the time to make it 😀 I know how hard it is to put videos together (I’m currently editing my video from my holiday!)
I know how you feel about work and having less time 🙁 It has made me a better planner too!

@Pauline, Editing is time consuming. Making time to film is also time consuming. XD But I really enjoy it, thanks for watching.
I’m excited to see your holiday video. I wish I could travel so I could make travel logs. But that also requires time. And work is gonna be my life for a little while until I get settled. But I do like that it is making me plan things out more. And I’m enjoying it.
Thanks for reading and watching!

Such a great video! 😀 It would be difficult to film in a workplace anyway, because they can be pretty strict about things like that. 😀

@Kya, Thanks so much for watching!
Yeah, I thought filming might not be appropriate work behavior. At least not right now.
XD Plus, I’m still too awkward to film in public.

Your typical morning video is cute! I think it’s a cool idea to film parts of your life and stitch the clips together :). Good luck with your deadlines! I haven’t really planned out my hobbies lately. If I have time at the moment and remember about it, I’ll do it.

@Nancy, Thanks so much! I also like videos like this. I’m already planning another I just have to make time to film it. It will be called, In Another Life. I’m pretty excited about it and hopefully I’ll be able to share it soon.
Thanks again!

Aww what a cute video. I liked watching it, and I liked that you sped it up. I will be honest, it can be pretty boring watching someone go through their morning in real-time.
I usually pick my outfit first-up as well. I eat breakfast at work so there’s not much in terms of getting ready, except for getting a drink and brushing my teeth.
You braid your hair the same way I love to do mine! I love starting on the left and braiding it towards the right. I figured out how to do it properly about three years ago, and it’s pretty fun. I don’t always braid my hair, but I do like doing it that way. 🙂
It might just be me but it seems like it took you a while to walk to your car from your home! xD

@Georgie, Thanks! I’m still learning the most eye pleasing speed up time. XD
I eat breakfast at work too, and I just excluded the brushing of teeth and whatnot, focusing more on the outfit, hair and then leaving part. I should have shorten the walk to my car a bit more. haha It does take me a bit to get to it though.
I love braiding my hair! It’s the easiest thing to do and it makes it seem like you spent a ton of time on it. My go-to when fixing my hair.
Thanks for reading!! 🙂

Congrats on the new job, girl!
Your lunchbox is so cute! Your morning routine seems very simple and quick. I feel like I always take forever to get ready in the morning, haha. Do you eat breakfast? I feel like it always takes me the longest time just to figure out what to eat. For the same reasons, I pack my lunch the night before (unless I forget) to save some time.
Great job editing the video!

@Becca, I usually eat breakfast at work, so it’s just picking out an outfit and fixing my hair that takes a while.
I never learned how to apply makeup so I don’t wear any.
Thanks so much!!!
