It is a little past 5 a.m right now and I'm gonna head down to get some work done.
I've gotten into the habit of waking up really early on Saturdays.
In the past two weeks, I was up like at 4.
Today was a little later but let's head down and I'm gonna do a practice exam
and then I'm gonna work out, take a shower, get myself awoke and we'll go on with the rest of the day.
But I have two midterms on the same day this Tuesday, so we need to study for it together.
So let's go!
Yogurt with Nila wafers.
Hello!
I just finished eating my breakfast so now let's get ready.
It's a little past 9.30 now and the plan for today is I'm gonna go do a little more studying.
Normally, I spend my entire Saturdays studying and getting work done so I can have my Sundays free.
But the plan is a little shifted today because I have to do
deliberations for interviews that we did for a club that I'm in
and that's gonna be like four hours, three, four hours which is not fun.
But that's something that I'm doing today and at 11, I'm first getting brunch with my friend
which I'm very excited for.
We're going to Tate which is one of my favorite brunch spots but I haven't been in such a long time.
So that's gonna be at 11 and then I have deliberations until 3 p.m.
And then after that, I really need to lock in and get work done
because I have two finals on the same day on Tuesday which is not gonna be fun at all.
Especially because they're for two of my hardest classes and I have literally no idea what's going on.
I've been trying to do practice tests and it's just been so hard.
I cannot be bothered.
That's okay because at least I do have some good news that happened this past week
which has made my life a lot better.
So I believe that everything will work out and honestly, grades are not that deep.
I really need to let go of my obsession with keeping my 4.0.
I feel like I've just been trying not to care as much anymore
because it's just so much more freeing and you live a much happier life.
Let things be and let life unfold because I believe that the best things are gonna happen
and they always do.
So that's how life works out for me.
Anyways, I'm rambling.
I need to get ready and then I'm gonna head down to our dining hall
and then I have about a little over an hour to get work done.
And today I'm gonna put on this gorgeous Gucci lipstick.
I have not like used it a lot since I got it.
I think it's so pretty.
It's so moisturizing and I really like the color.
Adding some gloss with this YSL gloss.
Let's head out.
Let's go and get work done.
And of course, I can't forget my crystal bracelets.
I genuinely-
Okay, like there's definitely a science behind crystals
because it's something about like the vibration and the energy
and the ability to vibrate at the same thing,
like some sort of scientific backing to it.
But I swear that it's actually been helping me so much.
I'm sure it has also something to do with like manifestation
and like your subconscious overall.
But I'm wearing this obsidian one and also this purple quartz.
I'm not sure what the exact name is.
These are supposed to help you with like your career and money
and school and stuff like that.
And I feel like that's just been doing wonders for me.
And this is to clean out any negative energy.
So I also love to wear my clear quartz
just for my emotional health and getting rid of any emotional burden.
Okay, I'm all ready to go.
So let's head out and go get more work done.
Picking my perfume of the day.
I literally got so obsessed with this Miu Miu perfume.
I swear this perfume smells so good.
I'm literally just like smelling myself all day,
which sounds so weird, but it actually smells so cozy.
And I just love it.
Let's head to brunch.
Yay!
Devoured.
It is 5 p.m. and I'm finally back.
And I got a little sweet treat
because I was feeling like very stressed
and just like not in the right headspace.
Like whenever it gets to midterm season
and it's just a lot going on.
I got Dubai chocolate froyo
and it's like Greek froyo.
So it tastes so good.
It's like a frozen Greek yogurt.
They add this pistachio sauce and kataifi on the top.
Beautiful.
I'm so excited.
So I'm going to enjoy this little cup
and then I have some frozen fruits.
It'll be my little sweet treat
and then I'm going to rest for the rest of the night.
I normally don't rest on like Saturdays,
but because tomorrow I am going to be locking in.
I'm going to be getting more work done with a friend.
We're going to a cafe and I'll take you guys along with me
because I feel like this vlog is going to be a little short
if I just end it here.
We're going to go and study some more
at a very good cafe with the best matcha,
but I'm going to rest after this.
Let's do a quick taste test before I leave.
I'll see you in a bit.
Bye.
Hello.
Good morning.
It is a little past 10am
and I'm up a bit later today
just because first of all,
like I always get up on Sundays very late.
Like usually I'm up at like 11.
So this is quite early,
but it's also daylight savings today.
So we're losing an hour of sleep.
So it's technically like only 9am,
but I'm going out to a cafe with a friend
to get studying done for like the next 7 hours.
They have a really good matcha
and I haven't been out to Boston in like a long time.
So I'm very excited for that.
I don't like to do makeup on Sundays,
but since I'm going out,
let's just do some light concealer and blush.
Some brow gel.
Bracelets come on.
This is pink quartz
and it's supposed to help with relationships
and just overall energy and vibe.
Here's the jewelry for today.
Okay, let's get going and I don't want to be late.
So I'll see you guys in a few minutes.
We have a cozy fit today.
The top is from Skins
and these sweatpants are from,
I think they're from Aerie maybe?
But let's get going.
No.
A lot of strawberry.
Finished our matcha.
It's 1.37 now.
And we got this truffle sandwich that looks so delicious.
Sunday, Sunday.
I'm so excited.
Let's get some ice cream.
Thank you.
Hello, it's 7pm and I'm back in my dorm.
After studying with my friend,
I went to get some dinner in my house
and it's Sunday, Sunday.
So I got some ice cream
and I also got some work done.
I met up with a friend who's also in the class that I'm in.
So we studied a little for our exam.
But now I'm back in my room.
I picked up a few packages
and I'm so excited.
So let's open them together.
OMG.
This is from Blank Street.
They recently released a new sleeve
and if you know me,
you'll know how much I love my Blank Street matcha.
Like it's genuinely my favorite study drink ever.
This is so cute.
The packaging is also so pretty.
Wow, look at this insane packaging.
Next is from L'Oreal,
which is another one of my favorite brands.
Wow, look at this.
OMG.
Okay, it's new lip products, I think.
Oh my god, this is so pretty.
I'm so excited to try all of this.
Thank you so much, L'Oreal.
I bought a few things from Sephora.
This is what I bought.
I got the topicals eye patches.
I've been into using eye patches recently.
So I got these to try and they're pink.
So I'm going to try this when I study tomorrow morning.
I'm so excited.
Amazing.
I think I'm going to end the vlog here
because for the rest of the night,
I just want to rest, sleep early
and then tomorrow,
I'm going to have an early morning
and get up and get some studying done.
I've been loving to study
before the sun even rises recently
because it's just so quiet
and I feel like I can focus better.
But thank you for spending the weekend with me.
It was so productive
and best of luck to everyone,
including myself on midterms
and I'll see you guys after that.
Bye!
