  12. 0:52>> Summer has been so fun, you guys, but
  13. 0:54I'm at the point where I'm like, "Okay,
  14. 0:56I am so ready to lock my ass back in for
  15. 0:59fall." I feel like fall is like that
  16. 1:01second New Year, that second chance of
  17. 1:03actually like locking in and honing in
  18. 1:05on your goals, rebuilding your routines.
  19. 1:08Obviously, it's been like 8 months since
  20. 1:10the New Year, but like I said, it is
  21. 1:11that second chance to become that
  22. 1:13version of yourself that you set out to
  23. 1:15be at the beginning of the year. So,
  24. 1:16don't feel guilty if you have set all
  25. 1:18these goals at the beginning of the year
  26. 1:20and you didn't accomplish any, you
  27. 1:21haven't done them because this is your
  28. 1:23second chance. Fall is like a New Year
  29. 1:25energy, it's like back to school energy,
  30. 1:28and there's actually no better time but
  31. 1:30you actually start now because then you
  32. 1:32can go into the next New Year and into
  33. 1:35the end of the year feeling so good, and
  34. 1:37that is what I want to do. Today, I'm
  35. 1:39making it a point, we are officially
  36. 1:40entering our fall lock-in era. I'm going
  37. 1:42to make us I'm going to make myself a
  38. 1:44whole game plan. I'm going to walk you
  39. 1:45through like the steps that I'm going to
  40. 1:46take to lock in this fall. I just want
  41. 1:48to take you through everything that I'm
  42. 1:50going to do to make these months really
  43. 1:52count. I just feel like we always put
  44. 1:53this pressure on ourselves at the
  45. 1:54beginning of the New Year, and a lot of
  46. 1:56the times when we make those goals, we
  47. 1:57never end up completing them because
  48. 1:59it's just too overwhelming. It's a lot
  49. 2:01of pressure in January, more so, and I
  50. 2:03feel like fall is like the low-key time
  51. 2:06when you can actually like build up your
  52. 2:08routine, implement your habits that you
  53. 2:10want to implement, but do it in more of
  54. 2:11a low-key way where you're going to go
  55. 2:13into the next new year not having to
  56. 2:16like reinvent yourself because you
  57. 2:18already started earlier on. Especially
  58. 2:20at this time of year when the weather's
  59. 2:21getting worse, the days are getting
  60. 2:23darker, we need something to motivate
  61. 2:25us. We need new goals, we need stuff to
  62. 2:27focus on. And instead of letting go at
  63. 2:29this time of year, we got to lock in.
  64. 2:31So, I'm going to take you guys along for
  65. 2:33my day today. I'm just about to go to
  66. 2:34the gym right now. I have some errands
  67. 2:36to run, I have some cleaning to do, and
  68. 2:37then I want to sit down and I want to go
  69. 2:39through my whole plan for what I'm going
  70. 2:42to do. As fun as fall is with all of the
  71. 2:45pumpkin spice, Halloween, and all of the
  72. 2:47festivities to look forward to, just the
  73. 2:49coziness vibes, I only appreciate all of
  74. 2:51that if I am locked in and I'm in my
  75. 2:54routine and I'm still doing the things
  76. 2:56that make me feel good every day and not
  77. 2:57just like lazing around because the
  78. 2:59weather's bad. So, anyways, I think you
  79. 3:00guys get the point. Let's go to the gym
  80. 3:02together. Let's get motivated together,
  81. 3:03spend the day with me, and we'll go over
  82. 3:05our game plan in a bit. Let's go. I
  83. 3:07don't know what workout to do when
  84. 3:08[music] I go to the gym. I always do 12
  85. 3:103 30. It's 12 incline, three speed for
  86. 3:1330 minutes, and [music] it's just such a
  87. 3:14great workout. And then I'll do like
  88. 3:16half an hour of lifting weights
  89. 3:17afterwards. If I go to the gym and I'm
  90. 3:19not sure what to do, it's just such an
  91. 3:21[music] easy thing to get myself to move
  92. 3:22my body. But one of my goals is just
  93. 3:24getting myself to the gym no matter what
  94. 3:26I do there, at least I got myself there
  95. 3:28and [music] I'm going to do some sort of
  96. 3:30workout. I find going to the gym a lot
  97. 3:31harder than like workout classes, of
  98. 3:33course, [music] but I've been trying to
  99. 3:34make an effort of working out four times
  100. 3:36a week to get myself back into a good
  101. 3:37routine. [music]
  102. 3:42I feel like after summer my entire
  103. 3:44routine always needs a bit of a reset,
  104. 3:46especially when it comes to cooking.
  105. 3:48Between traveling so much this summer
  106. 3:50and just being so busy, I've been eating
  107. 3:52out so much more. And now, since it's
  108. 3:54September, I'm genuinely craving
  109. 3:56home-cooked meals again. But, I also
  110. 3:58don't want to spend forever planning
  111. 4:00what we're going to eat every night. So,
  112. 4:01I've been getting HelloFresh again, and
  113. 4:03it honestly makes getting [music] back
  114. 4:04into that routine so much easier. They
  115. 4:07actually have an entire quick [music]
  116. 4:08and easy category now, which is perfect
  117. 4:10for those days where I'm working late,
  118. 4:12but still want to make a proper dinner
  119. 4:14at home. Tonight, I made their super
  120. 4:16quick ginger beef and rice noodle salad,
  121. 4:18and this was so [music]
  122. 4:20good. It's one of those meals I probably
  123. 4:22wouldn't think to make myself, which is
  124. 4:23honestly [music] one of my favorite
  125. 4:24things about HelloFresh. They have
  126. 4:26recipes inspired by 50-plus countries,
  127. 4:29so it gets me out of the cycle of making
  128. 4:30the exact same dinners [music] every
  129. 4:32week, and everything comes out
  130. 4:33pre-portioned and ready to go. You can
  131. 4:35also customize your meals, [music] swap
  132. 4:37proteins, double portions, skip a week,
  133. 4:40or order ahead depending on your
  134. 4:41schedule, which makes it really easy to
  135. 4:44fit into my routine. You guys have
  136. 4:45genuinely been loving HelloFresh,
  137. 4:47especially [music] when I'm trying to
  138. 4:48get back on track with cooking at home,
  139. 4:50and I definitely recommend trying it.

  153. 5:20for like food we love to eat. Let's give
  154. 5:22it a try. Let's see.
  155. 5:25Mhm.
  156. 5:26Mhm. That's so good. 10 out of 10. That
  157. 5:28is literally so good. It's very light,
  158. 5:31fresh, lots of protein.
  159. 5:33Mhm. Hey guys, I finished my workout.
  160. 5:36Feels so good to be done. It is chilly
  161. 5:39outside. It is feeling like fall. The
  162. 5:41weather has been so freezing, like
  163. 5:43actually so cold. I'm like, what is
  164. 5:46going on? I'm just to the grocery store
  165. 5:48now because I just need to get some
  166. 5:50ingredients for dinner. It is Friday
  167. 5:51night. However, I really am trying to
  168. 5:54make an effort of walking in, getting in
  169. 5:57a good groove of like cooking, making
  170. 5:58dinners. And I got HelloFresh, so that
  171. 6:01really got me in the groove of cooking
  172. 6:03and stuff. So, I'm going to make a soup
  173. 6:04tonight though, and I'm just going to go
  174. 6:06to the grocery store to get some
  175. 6:07groceries for that cuz I already went
  176. 6:09through all my HelloFresh stuff. I
  177. 6:10actually loved it so much. Need to get
  178. 6:12some groceries for dinner tonight, but I
  179. 6:14feel so good now that I have worked out,
  180. 6:16and I realized that I have a lot less
  181. 6:18anxiety in a day when I work out. I just
  182. 6:21feel like my anxiety has been spiking a
  183. 6:23lot recently. Feel like it is because I
  184. 6:26haven't been in a good workout routine,
  185. 6:27and it's not a coincidence that like my
  186. 6:30anxiety has gone up through the roof.
  187. 6:32Clearly that energy has nowhere to go
  188. 6:34but circulate into anxiety. Anyways, I
  189. 6:36just feel so much clear-headed after
  190. 6:38that workout. Fall vibes are falling.
  191. 6:40They are really falling. I don't think
  192. 6:42September has ever been this chilly.
  193. 6:45Like usually we get a good 30Β°
  194. 6:48end of August and beginning of
  195. 6:50September. I'm in biker shorts right
  196. 6:51now, and I'm like, "Ooh, I could have
  197. 6:53put on pants." Good thing I brought the
  198. 6:55sweater because it's actually freezing.
  199. 6:58But at least it's not raining. I'll take
  200. 7:00the cloudiness over the rain any day. At
  201. 7:03least we got that. At least it's not
  202. 7:05raining. Fingers crossed.
  203. 7:11>> [music]
  204. 7:16[music]
  205. 7:26>> Honestly, having 4 months left of the
  206. 7:27year, it is a lot of time, a lot more
  207. 7:29time than we think. I know it's going to
  208. 7:30go by really, really fast, but if you
  209. 7:32really think about every single day,
  210. 7:34like that is a lot of days left of the
  211. 7:35year. That is a lot of time. I really do
  212. 7:37want to try to make the best of it. So,
  213. 7:39let's get into this game plan together.
  214. 7:41The first thing that we're going to do
  215. 7:42is pick your top three priorities for
  216. 7:45your fall lock-in era. If we write down
  217. 7:4725 million goals, we are never going to
  218. 7:50do them. As we know, that's very
  219. 7:51daunting. Those goals never end up
  220. 7:53getting done. So, we're going to narrow
  221. 7:54that list down and pick top three
  222. 7:56categories as priorities. This could be
  223. 7:58something like your health, your work.
  224. 8:00For me personally, one of these goals is
  225. 8:01going to be my social life. I feel like
  226. 8:03at this time of year, people tend to get
  227. 8:05busier, school's starting again.
  228. 8:07Therefore, sometimes at this year, I
  229. 8:08feel like I hibernate and I abandon my
  230. 8:10social life. But, I really want to make
  231. 8:12it a priority this year to actually like
  232. 8:14put plans in the calendar whenever my
  233. 8:16friends are free, even if that's
  234. 8:17planning something like a month in
  235. 8:19advance. I always want to make sure that
  236. 8:20I have a plan in the calendar to look
  237. 8:23forward to, and I feel like that will
  238. 8:24bring me out of hibernation. I just want
  239. 8:26to be booking more dinner resos. I did a
  240. 8:28lot of that in the summer, so I
  241. 8:29definitely want to carry this energy
  242. 8:30into the winter. Just because it's
  243. 8:32winter doesn't mean it has to be boring,
  244. 8:34and doesn't mean you have to be
  245. 8:35hibernating. So, that's what I'm trying
  246. 8:36to do. As you guys know, I started a
  247. 8:38book club. So, that's something that
  248. 8:39we're going to have a plan every single
  249. 8:41month, a book club meeting date. That's
  250. 8:43going to be so fun to talk about in a
  251. 8:44group chat. So, like it really just
  252. 8:46gives me something to look forward to
  253. 8:47every single day getting to talk about
  254. 8:49the book in the group chat. And then
  255. 8:50having that planned kind of soirΓ©e
  256. 8:53[music] every single month with the
  257. 8:54girls, it's going to be so much fun. So,
  258. 8:56really when you're making your top
  259. 8:58[music] three categories that you want
  260. 8:59to focus on in your life for the coming
  261. 9:01fall and winter season, think about what
  262. 9:02makes you happy every day, what brings
  263. 9:04you joy, and try to also implement that
  264. 9:06in [music] things you want to work on.
  265. 9:07So, for me, my top three categories are
  266. 9:09going to be my personal life, health
  267. 9:11because I really just want to get back
  268. 9:12on to my routine as I've said a million
  269. 9:14times. My third category is going to be
  270. 9:16my work because I just want to lock back
  271. 9:17in with that. I want to be on top of
  272. 9:19everything. Yeah, so those are my three
  273. 9:21things that I'm going to be focusing on
  274. 9:22for the season. The next thing that
  275. 9:23we're going to do is we're going to pick
  276. 9:25our daily non-negotiables. At this time
  277. 9:28of year, fall and winter, you know, the
  278. 9:29weather's going to start getting gloomy,
  279. 9:30the days are going to start melting
  280. 9:32together, the days are going to be
  281. 9:33darker. You need things that you do
  282. 9:35every single day that keep you sane,
  283. 9:36that keep you in a good mood, that you
  284. 9:38know work for you, and that make you
  285. 9:41happy, that make you feel satisfied.
  286. 9:42Success does not happen overnight. It is
  287. 9:45something that starts to compound
  288. 9:46through your daily habits, especially
  289. 9:47for me, that's what I realized. Nothing
  290. 9:49ends up happening just overnight. Ask
  291. 9:51yourself, what is your dream routine?
  292. 9:53Going to fall, I'm definitely going to
  293. 9:55write down some things that I need to
  294. 9:57fix about my routine that I have not
  295. 9:59been doing during the summer. So, for
  296. 10:00example, things like not scrolling on my
  297. 10:02phone first thing in the morning, not
  298. 10:04allowing any social media like once I
  299. 10:05get in bed, then it'll motivate me to
  300. 10:08pick up a book instead. Just like little
  301. 10:09habits like that every single day that I
  302. 10:11notice over time make me feel so much
  303. 10:14better and actually directly correlate
  304. 10:16to my happiness, my motivation, and just
  305. 10:19make my life essentially so much better.
  306. 10:21I really want to be cooking more
  307. 10:23home-cooked meals again because we've
  308. 10:25been ordering a lot of takeout, going
  309. 10:26out for dinner so much, which is not a
  310. 10:27bad thing. Like going out, I love going
  311. 10:29out for dinner and stuff, but like just
  312. 10:30getting back into a [music] routine of
  313. 10:32cooking again, which over the past
  314. 10:33couple weeks I feel like I've been
  315. 10:34really good and it just makes us feel
  316. 10:36[music] so much better from the inside
  317. 10:37out. I also just really need to lock in
  318. 10:39and get back on a better workout
  319. 10:40routine, so that's also a non-negotiable
  320. 10:42of mine, especially this time of year. I
  321. 10:44need to keep consistent with that cuz I
  322. 10:45know it makes me feel so much better.
  323. 10:47The next thing we're going to do is stop
  324. 10:49relying on motivation, you guys.
  325. 10:50Motivation can get you excited at the
  326. 10:51start, and it will get you excited at
  327. 10:53the start, but motivation is not what
  328. 10:55lasts. It's the determination, it's your
  329. 10:57discipline. Motivation does always
  330. 10:59dwindle out. It is your environment and
  331. 11:02a disciplined routine that will keep you
  332. 11:03going. Emphasis on your environment,
  333. 11:05like if I keep my house clean, if I keep
  334. 11:07my groceries restocked in my fridge, if
  335. 11:09I lay my workout set out for the night
  336. 11:11before, that all leads in to me staying
  337. 11:14disciplined and actually like pursuing
  338. 11:16my goals. Doing a closing shift on the
  339. 11:18house every day so that I can wake up to
  340. 11:20a clean house and then feel more
  341. 11:21inclined to Oh, then I'm going to cook a
  342. 11:23dinner, then I'm going to cook a healthy
  343. 11:24breakfast, then I'm going to go workout.
  344. 11:26You know what I mean? One thing always
  345. 11:27leads to another. So, make sure you set
  346. 11:29up your environment for success because
  347. 11:31that's what's going to really pull you
  348. 11:33through. Obviously, I love getting
  349. 11:34motivated like watching other people's
  350. 11:36YouTube videos and listening to
  351. 11:37podcasts, but that just dwindles out
  352. 11:39after a day like I said. It's like that
  353. 11:40meme where it's like me rebranding
  354. 11:42myself at 3:00 a.m. in the morning
  355. 11:43setting my alarm for 6:00 a.m. to go to
  356. 11:45a workout class and then like shutting
  357. 11:46that alarm off because the motivation
  358. 11:48was literally just that one night. That
  359. 11:50is that meme literally that you we
  360. 11:51cannot be doing. We have to stay
  361. 11:53consistent and disciplined. The next
  362. 11:55thing I really want to be doing is
  363. 11:57fixing my dopamine. I have been
  364. 12:00scrolling way too much and getting too
  365. 12:01much of my dopamine from social media
  366. 12:03scrolling and it's such a bad habit. I
  367. 12:05really want to order it's called like
  368. 12:06the brick. It's basically like a phone
  369. 12:09blocker where you like scan it like
  370. 12:11Apple Pay and then it like locks you out
  371. 12:12of the certain apps that you choose. I
  372. 12:14need to get one. I was going to order it
  373. 12:15on Amazon and I'm pretty sure you can
  374. 12:17only order it from their website at
  375. 12:18least here in Canada. So, I really want
  376. 12:20to order one and that will actually feel
  377. 12:22like create very strong boundaries with
  378. 12:24me and my phone [music] because it is
  379. 12:26just so difficult if you don't have
  380. 12:27anything physical like blocking you out
  381. 12:30and I don't want to delete the apps cuz
  382. 12:31I need to post like for my job. So, it's
  383. 12:33just a very very difficult relationship
  384. 12:35and especially now that I'm starting
  385. 12:36book club. I really want to read again
  386. 12:38going into the fall a lot. I need to
  387. 12:39block myself out of my phone. I feel
  388. 12:41like sometimes that's the only way
  389. 12:42[music] that I will be able to put it
  390. 12:43down. And I also just want to start
  391. 12:45creating more than consuming. I feel
  392. 12:47like I've been consuming more than I've
  393. 12:48been creating and it just leads into
  394. 12:51such bad habits and everything. So,
  395. 12:53yeah, instead of saving those million
  396. 12:54videos on Tik Tok and never doing them.
  397. 12:56I actually want to start like doing and
  398. 12:57creating not worrying about what other
  399. 12:59people are posting what trends are going
  400. 13:00on. Just doing my own thing, making my
  401. 13:02own content regardless of the millions
  402. 13:04of things other people are putting out
  403. 13:05on there. YouTube has always been
  404. 13:06different for me personally. Like when I
  405. 13:07say I want to stop scrolling, I
  406. 13:09specifically mean Instagram [music] and
  407. 13:10Tik Tok cuz those are like the more
  408. 13:12addictive dopamine forefront apps for me
  409. 13:15personally. YouTube video I'll put on
  410. 13:17like when I'm getting ready for bed.
  411. 13:18Doesn't give me that hit of dopamine
  412. 13:20like those apps do where I can just sit
  413. 13:21and scroll for hours or just like a
  414. 13:23quick hit of dopamine. It's so
  415. 13:24different. The next thing that we are
  416. 13:26going to do is become obsessed with
  417. 13:28keeping promises that we make to
  418. 13:30ourselves. I always put myself in this
  419. 13:31position. If I promise my friend
  420. 13:33something, I'm always going to show up
  421. 13:34for them and always going to keep my
  422. 13:36promise. I find myself sometimes saying,
  423. 13:38"Oh, I'm going to do this and I'm going
  424. 13:39to do this and I promise I'm going to do
  425. 13:40this." But I never actually follow
  426. 13:41through with my own promises. And one
  427. 13:43thing I really want to make an effort of
  428. 13:44is actually following through with
  429. 13:46myself as I would with a friend, a
  430. 13:48family member because I always keep my
  431. 13:50promises to other people. And that's
  432. 13:51rude. Why are we not keeping our
  433. 13:53promises to ourselves? So if you say you
  434. 13:54want to read more or you want to work
  435. 13:55out more or you want to eat healthy, why
  436. 13:57are we not keeping those promises to
  437. 13:58ourselves? Becoming somebody that you
  438. 14:00can trust will instill so much
  439. 14:02confidence in you. It's insane what it
  440. 14:05can actually do over time. There's like
  441. 14:07science behind it that it makes you more
  442. 14:10of a confident person because small
  443. 14:11promises that you keep lead to literal
  444. 14:14evidence and then that leads to
  445. 14:15confidence that you're going to [music]
  446. 14:16have within yourself. So we are taking
  447. 14:18these promises and these goals very
  448. 14:20seriously, locking it. And my last thing
  449. 14:23that I'm doing is giving myself
  450. 14:25something to work towards. I feel like
  451. 14:26these past couple years I've been very
  452. 14:28much like lost in the sauce with like
  453. 14:29just my daily life and I haven't had
  454. 14:31like an overarching thing to work
  455. 14:34towards, like a goal to look forward to.
  456. 14:35And this could be anything from this end
  457. 14:37of the spectrum to this end of the
  458. 14:38spectrum. Like you can give yourself a
  459. 14:40goal of saving up for a specific
  460. 14:41vacation that you've always dreamt of
  461. 14:43going on. That's a great goal to have.
  462. 14:45This can absolutely be anything. This is
  463. 14:47going to be totally tailored towards
  464. 14:48you. And I actually have to do some
  465. 14:49reflection on this of what I want my
  466. 14:51bigger overarching goal to be this fall
  467. 14:53and this winter going into the end of
  468. 14:54the year cuz like I said, we only have 4
  469. 14:56months left. But that's still a lot of
  470. 14:58time. What and who do you want to be
  471. 14:59walking into January 1st? Ask yourself
  472. 15:02that. Build the person that you want to
  473. 15:04enter 2027 as. So even if that is your
  474. 15:06goal, creating like your dream person
  475. 15:08that you want to become by the end of
  476. 15:09the year, that's a great goal to work
  477. 15:11towards. Whenever I have something that
  478. 15:12I'm working towards on the daily, it
  479. 15:14gives you something. Like even if you
  480. 15:15signed up for a marathon, for example,
  481. 15:17that gives you something to work towards
  482. 15:20every single day. Therefore, like your
  483. 15:22habits are going to be better. I feel
  484. 15:23like you always need something in your
  485. 15:25life that you're working towards.
  486. 15:26Whether it's like this small or this
  487. 15:28big, you need something there why you
  488. 15:30wake up every single morning. Especially
  489. 15:31at this time of year when it gets
  490. 15:32gloomier, you need that thing. Anyways,
  491. 15:35those are my tips and tricks for how I
  492. 15:37personally locking in this fall and I
  493. 15:39hope this could like motivate you guys a
  494. 15:40little bit to create kind of your own
  495. 15:42structured plan for going into the fall
  496. 15:44and winter season this year. We got
  497. 15:46this. We're going to be in this
  498. 15:47together. When you look back at your
  499. 15:49life, it is our day-to-day life that is
  500. 15:50most important. Which is funny cuz a lot
  501. 15:52of the times we think about, you know,
  502. 15:54all these big moments and these
  503. 15:55vacations, but realistically what makes
  504. 15:57up 90% of our life is just the mundane
  505. 16:00daily days, daily life. And so, try to
  506. 16:03make those the best that you can. Try to
  507. 16:05make them fun. And as much as I want to
  508. 16:07lock in and, you know, stick to a good
  509. 16:08routine, I want to be able to do that
  510. 16:10alongside with making my daily life
  511. 16:12romanticized and making it the best it
  512. 16:14could be essentially. So, anyways, this
  513. 16:16is our sign to lock in this year and
  514. 16:19make it the best 4 months and the year
  515. 16:21off strong. We got this and we can hold
  516. 16:23each other accountable. So, make sure
  517. 16:25you're subscribed so you could follow
  518. 16:26along with the vlogs that I post for the
  519. 16:28end of the year. I am very excited.
  520. 16:30Those are my little tips and tricks. Let
  521. 16:31me know down below what you guys are
  522. 16:33doing to lock in this fall. [music]
  523. 16:39>> [music]
  524. 16:46[music]
  525. 16:51[music]
  526. 16:59[music]
  527. 17:38[music]
  528. 17:39>> This is one of those things that I have
  529. 17:41been wanting to start for a while now. I
  530. 17:43feel like I've been yapping about this
  531. 17:44in my vlogs. I never have and I just
  532. 17:47pulled the plug and I ordered a
  533. 17:49bedazzling kit, you guys. I have been
  534. 17:50bedazzling. I've already bedazzled like
  535. 17:52three or four of my products. Now I'm on
  536. 17:54to a new victim. I'm going to start
  537. 17:56bedazzling my Lemmy Sleep Gummies. I
  538. 17:58literally love these. They actually work
  539. 18:00so good, low key. So if you have ever or
  540. 18:02were interested in getting them, highly,
  541. 18:03highly would actually recommend. They
  542. 18:05make me pass out. So I'm going to put on
  543. 18:08I actually just started Earl Meets World
  544. 18:11Netflix, Alex Earl's new reality TV show
  545. 18:13that literally just came out. I also
  546. 18:15cannot believe that Dancing with the
  547. 18:16Stars is coming out on the 15th like
  548. 18:19What is that? Next week? In two weeks?
  549. 18:21There's so many good shows out right
  550. 18:22now. I feel like I have like a lineup of
  551. 18:24things that I want to watch. I still
  552. 18:25haven't watched the new Spider-Man movie
  553. 18:26and I know that's in theaters, so I
  554. 18:28definitely want to go watch that maybe
  555. 18:29like this week or something with Joel,
  556. 18:31but still got to watch that one. Yeah,
  557. 18:32like I said, I just want to be in my era
  558. 18:33of actually doing things. You know, when
  559. 18:35I'm watching TV, why am I scrolling on
  560. 18:37my phone? I don't know. Like it's so
  561. 18:39unnecessary. So I need to keep my hands
  562. 18:41busy somehow. So I'm going to be
  563. 18:43bedazzling from now on. That's going to
  564. 18:45be my new little hobby and I've been
  565. 18:46loving it so far. So let's sit down,
  566. 18:49watch some Netflix, and do some
  567. 18:52bedazzling. That's like my favorite
  568. 18:53thing. It's so calming. And then we're
  569. 18:55going to snuggle in bed and get in bed
  570. 18:56nice and early and read a book tonight.
  571. 18:58So So that's what my evening looks like.
  572. 19:00Uh the soup that I made for dinner is so
  573. 19:02good. And yeah, anyways, let's get
  574. 19:03bedazzling and have a fun, relaxing, no
  575. 19:06screen, no phone time, I should say, no
  576. 19:08social media time evening.
  577. 19:10>> [music]
  578. 19:17[music]
  579. 19:31[music]
  580. 19:36[music]
  581. 19:44>> Oh,
  582. 19:45look at my babies. Whenever I'm on the
  583. 19:47couch at night, they always love to
  584. 19:48join. It's the cutest thing ever. Aw,
  585. 19:52my actual beans. I love when they enjoy
  586. 19:55couch time with me.
  587. 19:56>> [laughter and gasps]
  588. 19:57>> I literally get odds. So, this is as far
  589. 20:00as we got for tonight. I'm going to head
  590. 20:01to bed now, but you can just imagine how
  591. 20:03cute this is going to turn out. Like,
  592. 20:05look at how basic this looks from the
  593. 20:07front, and look at it now from the back.
  594. 20:09So, I'm going to make my way around. It
  595. 20:10honestly doesn't take as much time as
  596. 20:12you would think to bedazzle. It's a
  597. 20:13pretty quick process, especially while
  598. 20:15watching TV. It goes by so fast, and
  599. 20:18it's so much fun. Would highly recommend
  600. 20:20ordering a bedazzling kit. I'll link the
  601. 20:21one that I ordered. It's really good.
  602. 20:23And yeah, super cute. I cannot wait to
  603. 20:25finish this one. Accidentally lost two
  604. 20:27bedazzling beads on here already because
  605. 20:29I forgot that I had to let the glue dry
  606. 20:30down, and I like touched it too much. I
  607. 20:32don't know if you could tell. I'm going
  608. 20:33to like redo this a little bit because
  609. 20:35it looks ugly when they start to fall.
  610. 20:37Well, I haven't had them fall yet, but
  611. 20:38like you got to make sure to let the
  612. 20:39glue dry. So, I'm going to redo that
  613. 20:41part if you could see it right now.
  614. 20:42Oopsies.
  615. 20:47I am officially [music]
  616. 20:48heading to bed. I have a Hatch alarm
  617. 20:50clock, and I feel like I have not made
  618. 20:52the most of it. So, if you guys have any
  619. 20:53like tips and tricks on like what's your
  620. 20:55favorite thing to do with a Hatch alarm
  621. 20:57clock in terms of like setting routines
  622. 20:59and stuff cuz I'll put on like rain
  623. 21:00sounds every night, and obviously like
  624. 21:02set my morning alarm. But like I paid
  625. 21:04for the user subscription. What do you
  626. 21:05guys do with your Hatch to like maximize
  627. 21:07it? I guess I can go watch some videos
  628. 21:09on it, but if you have any tips or
  629. 21:10tricks on the hatch alarm clock
  630. 21:12specifically, please let me know because
  631. 21:15I want to like bio hack it so that I'm
  632. 21:16making the most of it and that it can
  633. 21:18actually like help me with my morning
  634. 21:19and night routine cuz I know you can
  635. 21:21like set routines with it and
  636. 21:22everything. So, let me know how you use
  637. 21:24your hatch and like what it does for
  638. 21:25you. But anyways, we picked our monthly
  639. 21:27book club and we're going to be reading
  640. 21:29The Tenant by Freida McFadden. That was
  641. 21:31like the book that was chosen cuz we all
  642. 21:33chose books to go into like a random
  643. 21:35generator, and then The Tenant is the
  644. 21:38book of [clears throat] the month. So,
  645. 21:39I'm going to download that now on my
  646. 21:41Kindle. I'm going to get cozy, and I'm
  647. 21:42going to start reading this month's book
  648. 21:44club book, which I'm really excited
  649. 21:45about. But yeah, I feel like it is 9:38
  650. 21:48right now, and I really just want to try
  651. 21:49to make an effort of getting into bed by
  652. 21:5110:00 latest and then falling asleep
  653. 21:54ideally like 10:30, latest 11:00, and
  654. 21:56then that way I can get up at around
  655. 21:57like 7:00 to 8:00 every day, and I feel
  656. 22:00like that's a really good schedule, and
  657. 22:02I feel like it's not too early,
  658. 22:03especially now that the sun is starting
  659. 22:05to set later. I just feel like in the
  660. 22:07summer my routine was shifted so much
  661. 22:09later because the sun didn't set until
  662. 22:1110:00 p.m. So, like I wouldn't get in
  663. 22:13bed until like an hour after that at
  664. 22:15least. I just shifted my routine a lot,
  665. 22:16so that's why in the fall it's already
  666. 22:17the sun is already setting at like 8:00
  667. 22:19p.m. It set at 8:00 today, so it's
  668. 22:21setting a lot earlier. So, trying to get
  669. 22:23to bed earlier and like make my routine
  670. 22:25coincide like with the season, with the
  671. 22:27sun. So, yeah, and I feel like as long
  672. 22:29as I limit my screen time in bed, it's
  673. 22:30just so much easier to fall asleep. Like
  674. 22:32I get so tired reading. I saw you guys'
  675. 22:34recommendations to read A Court of
  676. 22:35Thorns and Roses on my last video that I
  677. 22:36posted on my last video that I posted.
  678. 22:38You guys were like, "You have to read
  679. 22:40it." So, I just might right now go on my
  680. 22:43Kindle and buy it. I'm going to go see
  681. 22:45like if I should buy the whole series at
  682. 22:46once or book by book, what makes the
  683. 22:48most sense, but I did see you guys'
  684. 22:50comments. So, one book club book, like
  685. 22:53it's going to be pretty small book every
  686. 22:54month, so I feel like I'm going to need
  687. 22:55more to read in between the book club
  688. 22:57anyways, so having that as like my end
  689. 23:00of year reads probably going to be so
  690. 23:01good. So, yeah. Once I'm into a book,
  691. 23:04like I will pick that up over social
  692. 23:06media. Like I will choose to pick that
  693. 23:07up over social media. So, I just need to
  694. 23:09get into something that I really like
  695. 23:11excited about reading. I think I'm going
  696. 23:12to give it a whirl. I think I'm going to
  697. 23:13give it a try cuz I have been just
  698. 23:15talking about it for so long now and I
  699. 23:17need to just shut up and read it. So, I
  700. 23:18think I might do that. But, anyways, I'm
  701. 23:20going to go to bed now. I just wanted to
  702. 23:21thank you guys so much for watching
  703. 23:23today's video. I know it was kind of
  704. 23:24like a different style that I did cuz I
  705. 23:25sat down and kind of just like talked.
  706. 23:27Made it kind of like half sit-down
  707. 23:28video. So, let me know what you think of
  708. 23:30this style video. If this is something
  709. 23:31you're interested in seeing more of or
  710. 23:33if you just prefer like my normal vlogs

  717. 23:47to lock in with me. So, anyways, thank
