Calm & Productive Days in The Life of a PhD Student | Lots of Cooking, Gym, Thesis Writing

- This week was all about getting back to a decent enough routine. In all honesty, I am still struggling to feel at home after the latest move, which makes focusing on my PhD thesis not the easiest. Nevertheless, I am getting it done, gently, bit by bit. Keeping up with my favourite hobbies has been key to staying motivated and afloat during this stressful period. Cooking, working out, photography and vlogging - they fill me with joy.
Walking and journaling have been somewhat left behind after moving, but I'm doing my best to get back to them. After all, it's about building your days with tiny bits of joyful activities 🤍

I get (most of) my music from Epidemic Sound: share.epidemic...
when i feel unmotivated, i just open youtube and watch ur vids. totally a lifesaver 😫❤
Super happy to hear that, work can be hard to get done at times. Just make sure you use the motivation and get back to it quick 😉🤍
I recently moved back home from fieldwork and forced myself to find a routine quickly there but finding a routine again here has been so hard since there's more writing to do and research to finish. this is very reassuring and motivating
How I understand you... It's almost like there isn't a true break. There's always research to do and life stuff to care of as well. But it gets better with time, it's all about planning and balancing 🤍
Your video was a great way to start my day❤ Looking forward to watching you cross the finish line of this phd🎉
Believe me - me too 🤞 thank you for your support, as always 🤍🤍
just found your channel, very cool and aesthetic, I'm gonna stay for a while. loved the content ✨🖤
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy your stay here 🤍
I'm back again😎 Your videos truly provide a lot of motivation and bring a sense of calm. I deeply admire your hard work and dedication 💪🏾.
Welcome back, again 👀 I am happy my videos help you getting work done but they are still relaxing, that's really the vibe I am trying to aim for! Believe me these weeks have been tough, but we gotta do it. Thank you for the support!
the way you cut the banana is so satisfying😂
ahahah I actually think so too, that's why I include it in every video 😂
you gotta give me tips on how you place your camera and how you make everything look so aesthetic XD
It's a lot of trial and error really! The amount of clips I have that look awful is far greater than the ones I end up putting in the videos. Don't be afraid to try out new angles and distances, think about the framing and the lighting :)
Brazilian Portuguese music playing
I love Brazilian Portuguese ahahah 🤍
Another day and a new beginning
Your channel is one of the best channels I have ever watched
Your life is simple, full of life and truly ongoing. When I watch you, I feel motivated. Thanks for sharing everything with us
I have two questions and a suggestion if you don't mind
Can you write your recipes in description please
How to organize your day ?
The suggestion is that if you want to broadcast live on Instagram, it will be a good broadcast for your followers. Thank you
good luck
5:18, us moment, it felt too relatable.
11:45, all of what you said is so true, there are just so many things going through my head all time, even though I am just a new grad and started my career as an NLP researcher 2 months back. Moving and all other responsibilities make the process harder than it already is.
Overall I love your videos and wait for them, they inspire me a lot to make my life a little better every day :) thanks
Maybe it’s because I eat too much but it’s a struggle after lunch 💀😂
I’m with you. Work and research is hard enough, but when you put everything else you have to do to, you know, being a functional human, it’s gets hard. I find it really important to not neglect other aspects of your life in search of career, I think they should coexist. I hope your research is going well, and keep taking care of yourself!
Thank you for the support, it means a lot 🤍 I’ve been loving making these little snippets of my life and it makes me happy it helps you and others :)
@@BrunoArcanjo I am loving these small conversations, after your every video. Bruno, I wish you with all the success and happiness you desire in life
@@kunalkumar4725 Half the reason for this channel to exist is to connect with people, I too enjoy these small talks :) Thank you and likewise, wishing you the best!

what's is that water bottle?
It’s a Chilly version 2, 1L :)
great vid! how many times a week do you workout?
Thank you 🤍 6 times a week, one rest day
I’m not sure if I’m the only one. But I’m all your videos I’ve never seen you use your phone. Any tips on how you do it ?
I do use my phone more than I’d like, don’t get the wrong idea. It’s something I’m working on. You don’t see it often because I use it as a screen monitor for my camera when I’m filming to check if I’m in focus and well framed.
Stuff I found that has helped is just keeping the phone away. Stuff it into a drawer, under the pillows, wherever. Just keep it away. Everytime you get the urge to check it, stop for a second and think if it’s really all that important. Maybe write down what you were going to check and why.
I don’t think phones are the devil and should be completely avoided. They’re useful tools. It’s when they stop you from doing what you want to do that they become a problem.
just out of curiosty, what is the difference between postdoc, phd and other graduate degrees in academia?
PhD is an actual degree, still considered education. You do research in a certain area with the goal of learning the research process and come out with a diploma at the end. A post doctoral is not a student position, it’s an actual research job, my oficial position is “senior research fellow”. You can also have masters by research - instead of having classes, you do research in a given topic. It’s similar to a PhD but fewer years and different diploma
What field is ur phd?❤
Visual Place Recognition for resource constrained robotics 🤍
how much u weight with this kind of physique cuz I want to attain it any how ...!!!
Hey! I weigh 70kg and I am 169cm tall, so not that heavy and not that tall. Workout hard, eat right, sleep well and I am sure you can get to it!
@@BrunoArcanjo ohh that’s alright I weigh 64kg and 175 cm so can call me skinny b!tch and yup working out but trying to keep up with diet lol can’t find any recipe for having chicken in good amount do u have any idea
You can get lower with that squat buddy 😂, the gym looks like it has a lot more than Colchester’s. Smashing it like always but what did u do to those wraps ur Latin heritage is shaking there heads at u l😂
I am getting old, my knees can’t take it anymore 😂 the Colchester one is much better imo. The layout of this one is not as functional, it’s smaller, and not enough mirrors and light 👀 not a bad gym, but I do miss the Colchester one!
Well, I did come to England, I’m just saying goodbye to my heritage in every way 🌝
@@BrunoArcanjo if ur old im ancient cheeky git 😜 I taught my 7 year old how to wrap tortillas and she now does her own do I have to drive down n teach u 😂. Mate still looks like u have more stuff in it who cares bout the layout aslong as u get them gainz son 😂
@@MrLinnane It's a long drive, you sure it's worth it to try and fail to teach me how to make wraps? ahahahah
I care about the mirrors and lighting, how else am I to check if I am making said gains?? 👀
I'm here again bro. Your video is very calm. But still im waiting for the study live stream. 🫰🙂😍
Hey again brother! I am looking into how I can use my camera as a webcam for the livestream, bare with me while I figure something out 🤞
