We need to have a productive day today.
I have a lot of things to do.
Some of them involve work, but some of them are just random things that i need to get done.
And school is approaching i'm actually really excited for it.
Like i don't know why i keep making that face.
I'm like trying to be all oh my god, i hate school, like i don't want to go back, but like i really do want to go back.
So i don't know why i'm doing that.
But today i have a ton of stuff that i have to get done.
But this hair it's boyfriend air i.
That's like the only way that I can justify this.
Like, why is it so greasy?
This is literally evan's fault, even though it's completely not.
I'm just gonna blame it on that.
I need to shower today.
I actually never take morning showers.
I feel like a lot of people take showers in the morning, but i guess i don't just because it takes so long for my hair to dry or i have to like dry it myself.
It takes a lot of effort.
I usually end up sweating when i'm like trying to dry my hair.
But it needs to be done today because i'm going to be going to the mall to try on some new glasses and i'm going to take you along, but i do have to Shower.
Cheers.
The cheers didn't quite go as planned.
Oh, there's a bug.
Open your door.
Push him.
Okay, so we are at the mall right now and I'm looking to get basically reading glasses.
These are glasses that are going to go on top of my contacts because my prescription is a little crazy.
But they just didn't have the color, the exact color that I wanted.
So I'm gonna try on that color here.
Ew, is that a wig?
Oops guys, I forgot my wig wig on the floor.
But we're going for like what are we going for?
This style?
I think round looks really good with my coloring.
Not too wide at the bottom yeah, like oversized in a way that suits your face.
Yeah, whenever i tried on glasses that were like kind of square or like circle, it just made my jaw look bigger because i have a pretty round face.
But i think i have a round slash, oval face, kind of fine.
It's where your face is wide.
Yeah, and it's like here.
Successfully just went into like five different stores because we're getting distracted.
She's like, but you should try on some Levi's jeans.
501 90s.
But you need a 25.
Are they all the same length?
Oh, 25-30.
Oh, yeah.
Okay, so I don't fit into Levi's jeans, but now we're close to the glasses place.
So what we actually came here for, oh yay.
So this is the brown color.
They're darker than i thought they would be like, i thought they would be lighter brown, but there's not much of the light color.
Yeah violet, i love the shade, though like that's too colorful.
Yeah okay, i prefer these ones, but i like them, but i wouldn't like them for every day.
But the gold is nice and it's a green key, which is yeah, I need to wash my bedding.
I haven't washed it in a while, and the feeling of having clean sheets is one of the best feelings in the entire world.
So I'm going to wash my duvet cover and my sheets and all of my pillowcases here.
Tonight's gonna be the best sleep ever.
I actually didn't know exactly what settings to do and how to get stains out and like what to use to clean my bedding, so i just wrote it down.
So that's a little tip to do before you go back to school.
If you're going to university or living on your own is just to write down, like how to wash certain things.
I also learned how to wash my white clothes so they don't get kind of gray or yellow over time, like to keep them bright white, and i cannot do laundry or any chores without music in the background, so We're going to play some music right now.
There's usually around like one day a week that I spend just catching up on everything.
I have to plan out a TikTok.
Oh wait, that's a reel. that's not a TikTok I have to answer a ton of emails I have to activate my credit card because you guys know that one that got hacked I did get a new one I actually did get a new one but it expires soon so I got a new new one everything that is attached to my credit card I have to add in new credit card I have to reply to some people on actualizer that's like all the computer work I have to do today that's actually not a lot that'll probably take me like an hour-ish it's actually funny because i feel like i literally can't go anywhere without one big piece of technology i bring my phone everywhere obviously i went to evans cottage this past weekend and i was like do i need to bring my laptop or my ipad and i was really trying not to like i was trying i was like i don't need it i'm just going to be you know chilling not working i needed it like i needed it a lot so i'm just gonna have to accept that i'm gonna have to bring my ipad or my laptop or both everywhere with me that's just like my new that's my new reality that's just like what i have to accept i'm gonna get to work now and play some music and just get this stuff done oh i just got the move-in instructions for my apartment move-in starts at 10 a.m on september 3rd in my building i am so excited oh my guys this is so exciting i feel like i haven't really talked about this on my youtube channel but i'm actually going to be on cb24 breakfast television talking about like my tips for back to school i think i'm going to be interviewed live like i think it's going to be live i know it's going to be aired in toronto but that's next week that's just insane like that coming out of my mouth is insane these types of things are like things that I dream about and then I didn't even think were going to be possible for me when I started my channel absolutely not like this is crazy so I have to kind of start preparing for that and I have a call like a rehearsal call on Thursday I also got email from divine.ca to do an article on me and my back to school tips and just answer all the questions on like becoming a content creator how to manage my time tricks for students how to be productive and focus amid all the distractions that there are and i'm just so excited this is just crazy to me like i don't know i can have that done like by the end of this week so i'm gonna put that in my weekly planner i also just got a really exciting email to get some earrings gifting and we all know that i'm obsessed with earrings so i think i'm definitely going to do this i'm so excited and i'll show you guys on tick tock which ones i end up getting but honestly these ones that are from amazon i really like them for if you just got a piercing and you're trying to heal them the post of it is really long so if your ear gets inflamed after which usually it does like it kind of just gets swollen because it's literal hole in your ear you're putting in but it does get kind of inflamed so that long post gives it so much space to heal but now that a lot of mine are healed these are like way too long and sometimes sometimes i'll take photos and they'll be like sticking out like this which i'm not really into that a lot so I think I'm going to get some more flat back earrings earring shopping is the best just because you don't have to be a certain size like jewelry shopping is so fun you don't really have to try anything on and it's just like really cute and pretty and I just love it so the Sun is still up so like if I'm still doing computer work and the Sun is up that is actually a win me every time I need to vlog usually on reset days i tend to have just a couple of random errands to do there's so much construction at the end of my road and it literally sends my car flying into the air because there's a bump and i actually fly like i catch air time i just usually end up meeting a couple of random things like i need to refill my conditioner and i need to get setting spray i'm just gonna go to shopper is my literal favorite place on earth I go to Shoppers once every YouTube video, which has kind of been accurate, honestly, in these last few videos.
Let me know if you guys noticed that little trend, but I just love Shoppers so much.
It has everything you could ever possibly need.
And I was actually just thinking while I was doing some work.
I am so grateful for how many skills my social media job has randomly given me.
Like I wasn't expecting to gain this many skills that are so useful in my life and especially in my career and any job that I want to do.
I know a ton of people always dumb down this job and say that it's useless, that it's not anything to be proud of, it's not that serious.
You don't really do anything that is of value.
I would definitely say that whatever content you post, whatever type of influencer or creator that you are, I'm now so comfortable talking in front of a camera, which is insane, because I didn't even really think I was gaining that skill.
I'm so confident talking in front of cameras.
Being photographed like that is so special for someone who's looking to hire someone, just to have that extra little skill of that confidence on camera and being able to articulate your points.
Like I noticed that talking to a camera camera, my whole teenage and adult life so far has basically trained me on how to put my thoughts into words and really articulate what I'm trying to say and not in a really lengthy wordy thing, because that honestly makes it harder for me to edit it, which is also a really good communication skill.
Negotiating with brands and being able to write just professional and concise emails is another skill.
Also, time management.
Like I have no choice, I have no choice but to be organized.
I have no choice but to plan my time, be able to manage not only my time but my energy, and just knowing how much energy each task is going to take me and being able to guess how long a task is going to take me.
And I feel like that skill is strengthened because of brand deals.
Like you do not want to disappoint a big company that's paying you to promote their product and a lot of creators, especially young creators, like when you're 14 15, working with these big brands, you're kind of a little intimidated because you don't want to disappoint them.
So you have to have things on time.
You have to have everything done filmed, edited.
You have to do the revisions and the time that they want you to.
They have specific timelines where they want this campaign to go live and they're not going to work with you again if you don't do it on their timeline.
Guess it's not only brand deals, but it's also like interviews and articles, briefing calls with different brands, as well as conceptual skills learning and just being able to know who your audience is, what they want, how you relate to your audience and the main mission and goal of whatever you're posting.
This also is kind of the same thing as having a business.
So many skills.
That I am so grateful that I realized that I have that I probably wouldn't have had if I didn't have this job.
You don't have to have numbers in order to benefit from a content creator job.
Even if you don't have a ton of followers, you can still gain so many skills from being a content creator.
You make your own schedule and you can decide how much you want to work.
You can also decide how much you want to grow this into a business like.
You can be the one to reach out to brands, to reach out to maybe, management.
I currently don't have a management and that is basically like my choice.
I love being on my own manager right now.
That might change in the future, but there are so many different ways that you can be a content creator, and just because you don't have hundreds of thousands of followers doesn't mean that this isn't meant for you, because i know some people have so many followers but they barely make any money.
Or a lot of people have not a lot of followers and they make so much money.
It's just basically what you want out of this job, and that can literally be fulfillment and being a creative outlet, and that is going to be my little spiel today.
Oh, and there's the police watching me talk to my camera.
Why do I feel like I'm doing something illegal?
I don't even think it's illegal.
That felt really scary.
It was illegal.
Someone look this up because we would be the same as having like a phone stand, right?
I'm going to go into shoppers, do my errands.
And I'm actually almost done my to-do list for today.
There is literally a teenage boy in the car next to me watching film right now.
And I'm pretty sure he was just filming me.
I hate that.
I literally hate that.
I hate that.
The haul actually must go on.
I got my favorite conditioner.
This is the Native Moisturizing.
That's a shampoo.
That's a shampoo.
Have the receipt.
Do I go return it?
And then I also got my favorite setting spray, which is the NYX Dewy Finish Setting Spray.
Best setting spray I've ever gotten, but now bye because I need to go return this.
Okay, I went back in and I actually got the correct one.
This is, they didn't have the same scent.
I didn't say flavor this time.
Oh, oh, they were literally making fun of me.
There's a car of like grown men that drove by twice and just pointed at me and were laughing.
What is wrong with this shoppers plaza like?
Is a girl not allowed to film a haul because i don't feel very welcome.
Anyways, i got this scent.
This is the almond and shea butter scent.
I'm gonna go home because i literally don't feel welcome at all, so Right now I'm going to be doing some Pilates.
I actually, okay, I have a little bit of a story time.
So I have a little bit of an update on my knee.
As I told you guys, I kind of injured it and I went to the physiotherapist and this guy was actually amazing.
He just felt my muscle and felt how inflamed it was.
He was like, do you have lower back issues, especially on the right side?
I was like, yes.
How do you know that?
So then he gave me a ton of exercises to strengthen my glute and my lower abs, which affects my posture, which affects how I could have injured my knee.
So I'm going to do these every day and kind of include them in my daily workout practice which honestly, I kind of love this because now I have even more motivation to move my body every day because I have to do these.
I think there's like six or seven workouts.
I'm going to see if this sunroom is open upstairs so I can just do it there.
If my mom is in there that's going to be really awkward, but my dad's working in the basement so might have to go do it on my patio.
Little health hack with sadie time, something that i've been using every single night recently and that i've added into my little nightly routine.
Please don't mind the container that it's in or the tissue, because i keep spilling it anyways.
I put castor oil on and i put castor oil on any scars that i have on my body, Including this burn.
Still hasn't healed.
I swear it was like a second degree burn and I do have a scar from it.
So I've been putting castor oil on.
I feel like this has actually been helping in the I think week that I've been using this like consistently.
It helps in inflammation too.
So I've been putting it on my knees.
It's the oil that sinks, like deepest into the skin and can break up stuff that's inflamed, so it's anti-inflammatory.
You can even put it on your skin.
It moisturizes and cleans your skin.
At the same time.
It improves your immune system, improves blood flow.
Also, i have so many scars along my heels from dance so i literally just like put it on my heels or my pointe shoes and, like my dance shoes, would dig into my heels to remember all the things that i have to do in my night routine.
I made a little reminder template on my phone and basically it has castor oil, eye drops, bloom and supplements.
Also, I will link down below the castor oil that I get because it's a specific one.
It's like an organic, pure castor oil.
Good morning guys.
It is the next day and it's actually not morning, because I've been on my laptop for the past two and a half hours just doing some computer work and I actually came to the conclusion that today is going to be a fully computer work day.
I might give myself a little break to go tan outside, which by might, I mean I 100 will.
And what is on my to-do list?
Or today, let me tell you, I think, edit a YouTube video, do this article, interview questions, film a TikTok, do my knee exercises, post on TikTok and Instagram, answer emails and answer my graphic designer.
And tan.
Thank you guys so, so much for watching this video.
And if you want more videos like this.
I can definitely film a lot when I'm in university, because my days will look a little bit different.
I love you guys so much and I will see you in my next video.
Bye.
