im actually happy about how she takes care of herself. How she never eats any junk food and is so health conscious and always trys to stay productive even during the lazy lockdown days, honestly ! encouraging others to do the same
I notice a lot in this video!!!!!! 1. I think that the productive videos are most interesting 2. Amanda's voice is relaxing 3. I love her so much 4. It's true that her voice is like she's gonna cry just 2 seconds more😂😂 I love her
Thank you for showing how you style your hair, that is something I have been wondering about. XD Also, Life Goes On is amazing I also love to listen to it!
the hair sprout is so cute omg🌱 brings me back to my childhood where i used to wear my hair like that BAHAHA~ kinda reminds me of the 'among us' character Amanda often plays as with the cute lil' sprout on its head ahaha 💜 also who else agrees Amanda made cooking a "simple" meal of pasta and veg look so aesthetic and effortless ahhh ✨😌😍
congrats on 2M Amanda!!!! who else noticed she went from 2M to 2.01M in like a day🤔~ thanks for all the self care videos I was neglecting self care last yr and hope to get better this yrr- hope y'all are enjoying ur 2021 and pls stay safe lil doodles!
My way to keep me sane while being alone: Listening to new music, adding flavourful spices to my dish, exercising, cutting and pasting random pieces of paper and making a collage
OMG!! I love all your videos and yes, it's TRUE! Your vlogs are NOT boring at all. I started bullet journaling last September. Its helping me so much.....now my schedules are no more messed up . All thanks to u. U were my only inspiration. And yeah.....I love your workspace too.🦋🦋
I heard her say, "You can never go wrong with pasta!" I enjoy cooking although I'm not that amazing, but it gave me flashbacks to when I once actually burned spaghetti while it was in the water! LOL! Just don't even ask how that happened cause I don't know!
I love and know that you are worth everything in my life and you make me pass those study tests everytime and you were the person that inspired me to do bullet journaling like 2 years ago and thank you for that!!-Paola
Hi Amanda I’m new and just started bulletin journaling and I LOVE watching your vlogs, there so inspirational! Thank you for being yourself I love you!❤️
I love your productive day vlog videos!! I feel like with anyone else they might get a bit boring, but your videos always have such a warm, cozy, welcoming feel to it that makes me love them. And your voice sounds cozy haha not sick ;D
When I was feeling really lonely I did a 10,000 steps a day challenge. This means I was outside walking for roughly 2 hours a day and honestly this hugely helped my mental health. I know this much time walking isn’t possible for everyone but even setting a goal of 3,000 steps a day would probably help. I read a mantra somewhere that people are a lot like plants we need sunshine, care, water, and room to grow.
I live alone and what has helped so much is creating separate spaces within my 600 square foot apartment. My desk has become my dining table, my dining table has become my desk, I strategically sit facing the opposite direction from my dining table while watching tv and sit on the other end of the couch when reading. Thankfully my bedroom is a separate space so my sleeping hasn’t been affected too much. But subtly separating my space has helped me not feel trapped in a small space. And walks every day help too!!
during quarantine, ive been trying new things. one thing I now love doing is walking on trails on days with good weather. I've also been watching shows and working out at home. I also try to pick up new hobbies like embroidery or painting covers of sketchbooks :)
I can totally relate with you about the part where living alone during a pandemic is tough... it really is and that feeling finally sink in a few days ago to the point that I broke down.. however I was lucky that I had my friends who gave me many phone calls and we chatted about everything.. it’s nothing like physical interactions ofc but at least you get to talk to someone verbally via a phone call. Also, you can first acknowledge the feelings and then tell that feeling, “I ‘see’ you, I can feel you, I know your existence but I don’t need you anymore” after that you can probably meditate then journal your feelings and focus on your actual breathing.. yeah nothing much but those are the tips I’ve just learned recently.. hope that helps ❤️❤️❤️
Tbh this video really spoke to me in the beginning.. I've been feeling really down and depressed staying inside so much and usually don't get dressed or do my hair or make up at all... You've inspired me to start taking better care of myself in those small ways even if I don't leave the house, thank you 🥺💕
Productive day with me videos are my favorites and it never gets boring for me! It's just interesting and motivating to see how someone's day went. I also watch these kinds of vids whenever I procrastinate as it keeps me going. Love this, Amanda! ✨✨✨
Thank you for mentioning the struggle of living alone during lockdown ♥️ all my friends live with family and of course times are hard for them as well. But I haven’t hugged anyone since end of September... no physical contact at all. It’s just me and me... thank you for sharing, it means a lot 🌟 the one thing that has kept me sane are mornings by the ocean with a winter swim. It helps tremendously.
I have the same guilt over rest / relaxation and I'm also working on it this year so it's really interesting to see you talking about that in this video! It's strangely hard to "unwire" oneself from that mindset and to re-learn how to take rest and not be worried about being productive or working even when you're not.
I also live alone in quarantine and something that has really helped me is setting up scheduled weekly phonecalls/skypes/zoomcalls with friends and family. It helps me to have something consistent to look forward to and also helps to not feel (socially) isolated and lonely. Another was getting more involved in online communities and forums about things I do anyways. Lots of discord channels and reddit threads full of people to share ideas with and talk to about related stuff.
Things I’m doing to stay sane: Scheduling my entire day/week Exercising (almost) daily Keeping my area clean/decluttered Working on my hobbies (reading and learning a language for me personally) Calling friends/family periodically as needed Hope this helps someone 💕
I'm an introvert too and most of the time, i'm okay with the actual situation here in switzerland. i cut out news. just check it, when there are new restrictions in da house. but having a news-free-time is helping me a lot. then i try to make plans, who are realistic so i have a thing to cheer, when i'm back in writing mood aka work :) We have a 5 person rule, so we can meet ppl on spare time. the most thing i look foreward are the monthly meetings with my family! (parents, brother). Love your channel!
I was with my parents for most of lockdown but they’re doctors and not at home most of the time. I completely get being alone at home, for me bullet journaling and RU-vid was a huge help.
The gov't of Ontario does recognize that it's harder for single-person households so you are able to join/close contact with one specific household to help avoid the negative consequences of social isolation ❤️
I've also been living alone during quarantine and so i FEEL you. One way I've been trying to cope with it is by just diving in to new or random hobbies -- or just like doing things to mentally and creatively stimulate me. Obviously it is not ideal, but it helps me kind of forget that i'm alone lol
I'm 52,. living in Greece. I've had my RU-vid account for maybe 15 years, but I've never subscribed to any RU-vidr's channel. I find them all (or at least the ones I've watched) super boring or annoying. Yet, here I am, watching all of your videos, even your vlogs enjoying every minute. Yes, I found you through my newfound love for art and bullet journaling (my very first journal is yours, yay!) but I'm sticking around for everything you upload, which says a lot. Don't doubt your ability to reach out and inspire. You're doing great. Greetings from Greece!
I love vlogs like this. They are so calming. And it's a nice reminder that you are a normal person just like the rest of us. Also even though you say your cooking skills are not very good I always love to watch people cook. I love getting new inspiration and I really appreciate it if the meals are just easy made things you don't need thousands of fancy ingredients for. :)
OMGGGGGGGGG Amanda's hair is flippin gorgeous.Amanda's house also has the aesthetics.The intro was so cohesive (I do not know the correct spelling)And Amanda has such a productive day....Hats off to you Amanda for being so brave and living alone.
I love these kind of vlogs. I also have been putting off things from last two weeks but seeing this gives a sense of comfort that i am not alone. Thank you very much for this❤ i feel good and will get all my stuff donee now!
I still can understand how some people call cake/bread and coffee "breakfast" Y'all girl needs the full thing (eggs, bacon, pancakes etc) To me cake and coffee is snack time lol But that's just me, no hate.
I've started going for a walk every morning and having a phone call with a family member at the same time, so we both get outside and start the day with a bit of light socializing :)
As far as lockdown goes, I’m an introvert too and I’m still fine with being all alone 😊 But I feel you. Being productive on your own is harder than anything I’ve ever done in my life
