- Hello, dear friends!
Welcome to a new type of video for me-- a week in my life! I'm grateful to have been given a lot of freelance work recently. It's kept me very busy this week and I feel accomplished going into the weekend! It also gave me the opportunity to take you behind the scenes to see the kind of freelance work I've been doing (once the ad content I was working on in this video is public, I'll share it in the description!).
I do hope you enjoy these happy highlights of my week. Thank you for giving me a reason to share them and for helping me to see the magic in my life đ I know these videos will be precious to me later (even more so than they already are).
EXTRA BIG thank you to those of you who sent me letters and gifts to my PO Box this week-- I felt absolutely over the moon when I checked and actually had mail! I'm going to always check my PO Box on Mondays now to give me something special to brighten up those days âš

You're so genuine, and down to earth. Watching your videos is such a delight. Keep on Morgan, and huge luck !!!
Things I loved in this video:
1) all the background freelance clips - I was so invested in the struggle with the glasses haha
2) hearing the buzzing of the bee and the pitter pattering of the rain
3) Seeing how much your channel is growing! I'm so happy for you
Ahh, I loved reading this comment!! Thank you so very much friend
I have absolutely fallen in love with your videos lately. I think it's the same for a lot of people, but it's been tough times lately and your videos never fail to cheer me up and not just momentarily! I always come out of watching your videos with a fresh mindset, your positivity is so inspiring! Watching your videos constantly reminds me to appreciate the little things
This is the absolute best comment!! Thank you so much, Olivia đ Iâm really glad my videos are a comfort to you- this whole thing (the videos, my channel, this community, YOU) brings so much light âš
Hi Morgan,
I discovered your channel a week or two ago and watched every single video since then. I love your aesthetic and your character so very much. Iâm currently writing my master thesis (I study literature) and its very stressful especially with the pandemic going on. Your videos give me a lot of joy and excitement for the future. My boyfriend and I will move across the country too the end of summer (itâs not that far because we live in Germany :D)! lots of love, Corinna
Hi, sweet Corinna!
Oh man, I hope soon you will be finished with your thesis and feel lighter than air! You will get it done believe it or not! Day by day
Whenever I am having a rough day, I come and watch your videos. You are so uplifting and refreshing. Thank you for being you!
Oh Morgan this is absolutely amazing! All the little details, the calming music, gorgeous shots, I love it ALL. You always make me smile, I love seeing you happy. Also, you and Landon are way too cute

I'm so glad my vlogs make you happy! đ
Oh the aesthetic! Your videos always make me feel so calm and cozy, no matter what's going on around me. Seeing the behind the scenes was very interesting. I'm glad things are going well for you, I pray you continue to succeed. You deserve all the best.

I love your videos! â€ïž
Thank you so much! â€ïž
What you said about growing your channel gave me a lot of heart đ It's tough to spend so much time making videos to get no interaction sometimes but I'm just going to keep on making things I love and hopefully one day I will be part of a little community that loves those things too đ
Keep going!!! Maybe do a Readathon video? I don't know why that was the one that took off for me, but it was! Your content is beautiful đ
Congrats on the increase in subscribers! Anytime someone on my Twitter or Instagram asks for new channel recs, I ALWAYS mention you âșïž
Thank you SO much!! You've been so supportive for a while now and I really appreciate it đ€

Behind the scenes was really interesting - I had no idea it could be so painstaking doing shots!
You deserve every one of your new subscribers. I can't wait to check out your Patreon x
This was the first video i saw on your channel and when i checked your channel it sorta gave me that push that i needed to work on my channel even if i post videos for my creativity. But your videos inspired me to do it. Even if i have a small audience.
Lost of love a new subscriber
Thank you so much, Aizy! I hope your channel grows-- your cover art is lovely! âïž
loved the music recomendation! â€
Iâm so glad!!
I miss thunderstorms too. I'm from Western Australia but moved to Ireland 5 years ago and we just don't get hard rain or thunderstorms here, at least not like the ones in W.A.
Love your vlogs, they're my favourite ones to watch :)
It's actually thunder storming right now and I'm so so soooo happy!! I hope you've had a good week

Thank you so so so much, Leonie!! đ
Hi Morgan. Congratulations on any upcoming sponsorship opportunities. đ That's amazing and you rightly deserve it. đ I really admire your stance on keeping any sponsored content in line with your current content.
Thank you so much Kelli!! I love the community this channel has brought me and I want us all to always feel good here đ
Thank you so much for your beautiful video! I so appreciate how much thought and creativity you put into each and every one of them. I hope you're staying safe and happy :)
Thank you so much Maya (spelling?)!! I always appreciate it when someone recognizes the amount of time, thought, and creativity that go into these videos. I love every second of it! And it certainly is a lot of seconds :) Your BookTube is wonderful!!
@@MorganLong You are so welcome! Your spelling is perfect :) And thank you for your kind words on my channel, you've just made my day!
Watching you work made me want to get back into photography again! đ€© Love how you make the simplest things beautiful. (Tea cup drawing) You are very welcome! Hope you enjoyed it.
I bet youâre really good at photography! Already so well-written and thoughtful, you must be a creative!
I love my tea sooo much! Itâs especially good with a touch of lemon juice đ I felt like I was getting a cold this week and after 2 nights of drinking that tea, I felt totally healthy đ
Cheers! âïž
@@MorganLong oh wow! The timing could not be better then! So glad you feel the benefits of the tea. đ€âšThanks for the compliments also! Cheers to your channel's growth! It can only get better from here. â
Hey Morgan, this is Amrita from India. I really like your videos. Everything about them. But there's one thing that I absolutely adore more than anything else, there are these little moments where you just sip on your beverage (I am guessing tea :P) and look around with a content and peaceful smile on your face and just be in the moment. It doesn't matter if you are indoors or outside, the smile is always the same and is a reflection of how deeply you love Life. I find that so beautiful. Please keep creating such lovely content. Much love and good wishes your way :)
Thank you so so so much for this sweet message Amrita
Hi Morgan, I saw you wearing clogs in some of your clips in this video and I absolutely love clogs they are so comfortable and I got inspired to wear clogs from my favourite musician Brian May from Queen and I'm so happy to see some other people wearing clogs because most people don't like them. I love your clogs and your videos has such nice music and I love it. I'm so happy you are still making videos in this stressful time and this is exactly what I neede right now. Thank you Morgan.
Hi, Adiah!! I absolutely love clogs! I only have my one pair and they're red and are simply my favorite! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment on my videos during this stressful time-- I click my clog heals in your honor! Hahaha đ
I'm so honoured that you are clicking your blog's heels in my honour !!đ
Lovely! I started following since the quarantine. Your video is so peaceful and bright! Btw, can you please share the link of the portable wood table at 18:00? The one you were using by the sofa. Thanks!
Just discovered you... A big warm hello from south west London x
Hi Morgan đ you donât have just brazilian subscribers but portuguese subscribers as well. Youâre such an inspiration đ thank you so much for your amazing videos âïžâïž

We are tea kettle twins :) I have the light blue one too! Thanks for making my day a little brighter with this lovely video!
Also, I was wondering where you get your music? I adore it!
Woohoo, cheers to blue tea kettles!! Thank you, Sofia :)
I get my music from a licensing site called Artlist! I also make video content for companies so Iâve paid for the subscription as part of my business đœ
Loved this new type of video wowww xx you've got such a good attitude to work x loved the puddle clip too đđ You really deserve all you're getting with your channel growing â„ïž

@@MorganLong Here to stay đđ€
Coucou contente de vous revoir jâadore vos vidĂ©os bonheur merci đ
Merci beaucoup, Marylin
Hi! Lovely video! How did that pancake flew over there? đ€đ€Ł That's me everytime I try to cook something that you have to flip over. Side note, your channel showed up in my recommendations and the video was a bookstore vlog at Powell's City of Books. I remember I was watching random bookstore vlogs because I wanted to see other bookstores and people's finds at that timeđđ
I'm so glad you found your way here!! Thank goodness to CZcams for recommending that video!
Hahaha I've yet to master the art of pancake flipping đ
Lots of love from INDIA â€ïž. it's mesmerising
i am new here and i just love it so so much
btw can you tell me where did you bought your glasses
I love Mr Roo easter eggs!
Hahaha, he's quite the master at cameo appearances!!
Hi love the vlog , I am wondering where did you get the worktable with your couch ? I hope I write it well I am Dutch xD
Where is your tea cup from it's do cute I need one , pkease and thank you
Iâm so happy and proud of you! I feel you already like one of my friends đ„° and thanks to you I started Emma yesterday!
Te deseo puras cosas buenas y hermosas! đ crecerĂĄs muy rĂĄpido en subscriptores a partir de ahora đ€© ya lo vi!
P.D.: Pronunciaste bien el nombre de MartĂn âșïž
MuchĂsimas gracias mi amable amiga đ€
where did you get your glasses?? so cute!
How have I just found you!? đ What an absolutely lovely, cozy channel! Love your little Roo â€ïž
Where are your red clogs from? I must find them! Thank you for making videos for all of us to enjoy!
xx laura P.S. Iâm getting a cozy âyouâve got mailâ vibe!
Hello, friend!! Aaahhh, Kathleen Kelly is a kindred spirit and I'm honored to provide the same cozy feelings I find in "You've Got Mail" đŒ
I found my red clogs in a small second-hand shop in Claremont California. They have no markings other than "Made in Denmark." I wish you luck in your red clog endeavor nonetheless!
Thank you for being here â€ïž
Morgan Long aww thank you for your reply!
Her home is so cozy
Thank you so much!
Your home is really nice!
Thank you, friend!! đŒ
I love all your videos! Have you ever thought about doing a âWhatâs on my IPadâ video? I know itâs different but itâs just an idea, I think that would be fun to watch from you đ
Thank you so much!! I love the idea of doing a "What's on my iPad" video! I've never seen one myself, but I'd definitely be intrigued âš
Do you think maybe someday you could make a playlist to share? I just love the music in your videos âĄÌ
Hi, Rachael!! I've wanted to make a playlist for a while and it's something I've really looked into. I get all of my music from a licensing website called Artlist and unfortunately, the majority of the songs available there (and that I use) aren't available on Spotify or iTunes. I tried to make up for that in doing my 1hr Readathon. I'm planning another one too as I find more songs âš
Hugs!
I just love your energy and editing skills! I could watch your vlogs on repeat đ€Ł
Also LOVE your rainy day outfit! I regularly wear rainbows. Just be happy in what you wear girl. â€ïž
You said it best! Here's to rainbows and being unapologetically ourselves đš
Your bed is amazing. It looks like it's housing the king and the queen in it. ;)
I think everyone understands that ads and partnerships are part of CZcams, I think it's just about how it's done and how often. I think people react most when the advertised product has nothing to do with the video or when it's just happening often. Like a lot of CZcamsrs have a partnership with Audible and for me it would make sense to make a video about recommended audiobooks for that, but I haven't seen that yet.
Oh, it would be amazing if you had some drawing tutorials for your patreon. I want to learn to draw like you!
Now I am stopping CZcams for today and continue reading Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix.
I so hope you enjoyed your day of reading!! Thank you always for your suggestions-- I appreciate what you have to say about ads and partnerships and love the idea of doing a drawing tutorial on patreon!!
Hugs đ€
What is the name of the music playing towards the end? Itâs so peaceful and would love to listen to it all day long:)
The song is "Ballerina" by Yehezkel Raz âš
â€ïžđ
đ€
Hi Morgan, what is the music at the beginning of the video.
Tankyou so muchđ
Nathalie from đšđŠ
Hi, Nathalie! The song is called "The Music Box" and it's by Origami IV âš
Hello from France ^^ I was wondering what was the recipe you used for wednesday ? Is it a kind of pancakes recipe ? :)
Your video was really cozy and peaceful âȘ Thanks so much, I hope you're doing well â„
Bonjour, Roxane!!
I made these same pancakes in my Hygge Vlog and listed the recipe! Itâs a pre-made mix but I think they would be easy to make from scratch đ
Thank you so much for watching â€ïž
đđđ
đ€đ€đ€
You are the best!!
Jå que a Morgan falou que tem mais gente do brasil por aqui, eu vos pergunto: alguém sabe qual é a nossa versão do peppermint tea que ela vive tomando? Porque eu tenho procurado mas não sei qual é o chå equivalente, ou se ele existe.
(Hi morgan! I am here.)
I hope you are able to find the tea!! Cheers, amiga âïž
