how has ur summer been? :0
Solid 7/10
kinda stressful honestly :/ i start college in august
A bit lonely 4/10 so far
Boring and sad as the same time 2/10
It’s winter :( and I have exams :((
4 hours screen time is a good day for me😭😭😭
Sameeee
I got average 8 hours this week 🧌
I started learning Spanish and Korean again this summer! I've also been spending time to learn how to shape my nails with a file (they get really long naturally), it's really hard. I'm basically just studying, but it's way more fun and fulfilling than school.
I'm learning Spanish too :D if you ever get tired of studying, watching CZcams videos helps a lot to improve listening and it's more fun for me at least! Some Spanish CZcamsrs I watch are Thelma Clatza and Bola de arroz, and Korean vlogs are a whole genre, so Buena suerte :3
4 hrs of screentime for me is one of my productive days😭
My summer has been pretty good! We’re both going to be freshman this year so I’m also super excited for college! I am in kind of the same situation as you where I am trying to exercise more. I have always liked the idea of being a runner, and I’m pretty proud to say I’ve been running consistently for about the past month and a half! I can actually run for a whole mile which I never would have been able to do before. I don’t have much going on, but it has been nice to be able to focus on my own health and happiness, especially because I want to keep these habits when I go to college! I hope you are doing really well 💕
yayyy I'm glad ur summer has been good :D and I am so proud of u for running consistently, I also wanna get into running cuz I can barely run for a minute lolol... u have inspired me!! I hope u have a lovely freshman year
Omg i hate running and i die whenever I try to run a mile
That’s a huge accomplishment great job!
I’m in the same boat as you! Been trying to run and workout consistently, and I’m gonna be a college freshman this autumn
for the book cover, you should sew a piece of fabric on the inside of the covers to keep the crochet in place! like a little flap pocket thingy along the sides or corners would do the trick ❤
ooo I didn't think of this thank u so much for letting me know!! imma see if I have any scrap fabric I can use :D
Im so happy you posting makes me a happy gorl :'3
(And your screentime is so relatable i spend my whole life on the internet 💀)
I love these vlogs sm! I’m having a great summer so far and I hope all of you are too!
MY SUMMER HAS BEEN GREAT!! HOW WAS URS?? :D
YAYYY I'M GLAD!! mine has been pretty good I've been going outside more lolol
i would love a crochet video ! double crochet is always so hard for me, but if i skip a stitch in the next beginning row it can create more of a straight edge! 💌
PRODUCTIVE GIRL SUMMER IS THE NEW HOT GIRL SUMMER 💗
yay rui!!! i'm so excited for you to finally go to college!!!! imo the first semester/year doesn't have the best classes (booooo gen eds lol) but its where you first meet people and get used to the school!!! it's a lot of fun and i'm so happy that you're almost there! :D
I love your vlogs 'cause they're so relaxing and motivating for me. I also feel the same and spend way too much time online mindlessly scrolling or watching youtube. I've been working on my drawings and am finally getting to a point where I'm satisfied with my art style!!
okayy soo i will share you a few tips from me uncle!! if you don’t like counting stitches or you want them to be the same through the whole project use stitch markers for every 10 stitches or at the beginning and end of the row so you don’t skip at the end! also for a straighter edge it could be helpful to stack 2 single crochets on a double crochet project!! this helped me sooooo much!! happy crocheting peeps🫶🏽 hope this was helpful 🥰
wishing u good luck in being productive for the rest of ur summer c: i’ve also been working out a lot more and i think it’s really helping me not wanna die as much loll but i’ll definitely try to make the most of my time before school starts (eew). also. your hair looks really good in braids aaaaa
absolutely adored this vlog! really motivated me to start getting more productive this summer (well, winter for me hehe) really liked that you used some bossa nova for the soundtrack - love from brazil 🤎🤎
My summer is going great, :D I made a lot of new friends, I still have a lot of plans ahead and everything has been great so far. I was at the beach, I went to a festival where there were a bunch of concerts and honestly this has been my best summer yet. I love your videos and your personality by the way, your awesome, girl
ur videos r saving my summer fr 😞💕
omg, the brasilian music out of nowhere, aaaaah
hello from brazil btw, love your hole vibe and personallity
Every summer I have this suuuper long period of time were I’m not at home, I have little to no friends here and nothing exiting to do, these days I have been pretty much vegetating so this video is actually really helpful thank you ❤️
the way u talk is so satisfying, i love ur cripsy r’s
i love your videos 😭💕
PLEASE make a crochet video (I crochet too!) I'd love to see what you make!
OMG YAYAY OK I think imma make a crochet diaries type of a vid hehe
PERIODDDDDDDD this is so nicely produced.
Your makeup in the end of the video LOOOOVE IT OMG
How I love this channel♡♡ It super inspires me. your style is my dream!!!
i started crocheting 2 summers ago and honestly, just crochet, thats how to improve. u gotta practice the stitches n stuff. make a bunch of projects and each one will b better than the last. also clothes r much easier than u think :)
ur so pretty 😭💗
My summer has been great so far! But I have the same problems with screen time 😭 luv ur videos!!
i’ve been crocheting a lot too! i made a pillow and i’m making another for my dad’s birthday, and my friend and i have been going on picnics and embroidering together ☺️ been trying to go into the mountains more too
The quality 🔥🔥
my summer has been going well!! also started crocheting too but i am still very much a beginner lol 😅 also preparing for my first semester of college which i am very excited for!
My summer is not going great, but after your video i will try to make the most of it :D i am planning to crochet tiny, thin cardigan with triangle-shaped sleeves and headphones cover. I am slowly learning new songs on guitar.
But now i will binge-watch your videos haha
You have such a bubbly personality:D i hope you will have an amazing summer :D
man i love your videos, ive been binge watching again ur entire channel since the beginning of summer! ahaha
AWW THANK U SO MUCH!! I hope the earlier vids aren't too cringe lolol
@@funkyfitz nooo lmaoo
BABE WAKE UP FUNKYFITZ POSTEDD
im about to go into my senior year so the end of summer has been a bit stressful, but i spent two months in vietnam to visit family and that was wonderful!!
Loved the video!
with crochet, getting stitch markers can be helpful for the unevenness and if you’re struggling to count stitches
Yay! New video!
CROCHET TIPS!
1) You should try and get and ergonomic hook as its better for your hand muscles!
2) Stitch markers are good for recognising the end of rows, which could help yout rows stay even (they are also really useful for other things, a very worthy purchase, a crochet staple☺)!
3) And finally if you want a straighter edge you could do a few rows of single crochets along the sides, top and bottom of your projects!
hoped this helped! xx
love your vids
❤
NO WAY ITS TGCF OHMAAGAAAAAD
i immediately recognized the book 😭😭❤️❤️
it's only been two weeks but my brain has already gone numb ^^; thanks for the inspo!
Pls do a makeup tut, UR SO PRETTY ❤️❤️❤️❤️
10:36 the ruffles are so cute i really like this piece :D
I actually just started watching ur channel and can i just say i adore your room😇🤭and that videos like urs aspire me to get my life together(im 18 btw)
bro im at 8:51 hrs 😭
4 hrs??? Thats my goal cus mine rn is literally 14 hrs avg 😭😭😭
I've been mowing and doing odd jobs to save for an ipad so i can do art! it's been tiring but i'm rlly excited for the end result :) thx for the video!
you don’t understand how badly i needed this right now! i’ve been on my phone so much (*_*)
my screen time is like 14 hours and im home alone all day
I honestly just can't believe my winter break (I live in Brazil) is about to end already... as a senior year student I was supposed to be studying for ENEM (kinda like sat) to go to an university and all those stuff and I've barely studied anything. But at the same time it's so wierd to think I feel bad for not studying at a moment that literally exists for resting lol. Hopefully I'll be able to study more once the classes are back, but overall my winter have been pretty good (it feels so wrong to say this while everyone is on summer), hope y'all had nice summer/winter too :)
i started going to the gym around may and i've been taking learning spanish more seriously! i'm doing a summer course for college right now and i'm also trying to find a second job cuz i want to save the monies.
My daily screen time is like 6 or 7hrs😭😭
OH MY GOD YOU READ MXTX? When I saw you crocheting I thought of also doing a crochet for TGCF volume 5 because that’s the book I’ll be starting, and then I suddenly saw you where doing it for MDZS volume 4 ( if I’m not wrong) And I screamed. I’m obsessed with her novels and have been for almost 3 years. Also love your videos and your aesthetic! I’m a new suscriber
Also hmmm my summer has been lowkey shitty cuz I’ve been working so I can have money for University. I haven’t gone out with friends sadly…. But it’s fine. I hope next summer is more enjoyable.
Please make that crochet-related video. I am also learning how to crochet. You're so talented already. wish you and me on our crocheting journey. I really like the book cover. I enjoy the video too. My summer is meh planing to go ton the beach and movies with my friends.
My summer has been good!! I relearned how to roller skate yippeee and I went to a gay techno rave!?!? It was so fun honestly. HAVE FUN AT UNIVERSITY you’ll have a great time don’t even worry about it
My summer has honestly
Been kinda boring i just wish my friends would wanna hang out with me, its been hard seeing other ppl my age doing fun productive things i need inspo ideas and friends to hang out with!
PLS make a crochet-related video I WOULD LOVE to watch. I also started learning how to crochet about 5 months ago and I've only finished 1 project.😃 I really want to start making clothes too and learn to crochet better as well. I love your videos so much and I love the designs and effort you put into making your videos esthetically pleasing ALL the time.♥
10:36 mxtx novel(tgcf???)
i am looking respectfully
YES HOW DID U KNOW OMG I literally finished all the books that are out in the span of 2 months I can't wait for book 7 & 8!!
I’m so inspired by you and your outfits, you are such a beautiful amazing person
this summer i’ve been practicing driving even more bc i am so bad at driving 😭
Aaahh hi I’m finally early :7
NOBODY GONNA TLAK ABT THE BOOK THAT WAS REAL MO XIANG TONG XIU
can you do a makeup tutorial for the darker makeup at the end of the video when you were showing your crochet its so cute 😭😭
crochet tip: if u are js starting maybe try doing woobles stuffed animals! They are suprr cute and easy to make and once u get more advanced you can go onto the intermiediate level x
my summer's been p fun! ofcourse with my phone being in hand it's quite inevitable that my mind goes idle every now and then lol but at the start i made it a goal of mine to read a new book every week and to write short novels, ideas and other works as a hobby! i picked up reading and writing consistently until my mind got bored nd wanted to move onto smn new:/ i mostly draw art now and have a sketchbook where i draw traditionally but the funner process for me is to draw digitally w/ a new tablet my mom bought me. ^_^ i do that but side by side i picked up playing the electric guitar as a hobby BECAUSEE i got really reallyy into and addicted with electric guitar covers. it's going well so far and i even have a eguitar journal where i record songs i'm learning/have learned nd new techniques nd stuff that i've learned! i totes understand why people say learn an instrument now ^o^
CZcams putting this on my recommended is definitely a sign that I need to get off my phone
u have inspired me to touch grass😼😼🥳YIPPIE
i have been..... very unrelaxed lol. also doomscrolling, getting ready for freshman year of college, panicking over how many crochet/knit projects i want to finish before i move, and generally feeling not good :). maybe organizing my life will help a little lmao
This was so productive i love the video!
But please can you tell us the name of the song that you played in the 6 minute? (When you were cooking)
We never go out and I go every day working with my mom and helping her we never get a day off but I just wish we could go out but I am just waiting for school to start I miss school
It makes me feel like I'm missing out on so much if I don't check my phone or messages every second, and on every single app there's many notifications😭 its so tiring to talk to every friend with energy while you have 9 people talking to you at the same time and then each of them you have to pay attention to
Link to the beginner gym program?🔥
I GOTCHU!! czcams.com/video/cPOJHiatD2w/video.html
crochet tip , i hate to say it . but like . practicing will make your stitches more even as you get more + more comfortable and the stitches becoming muscle memory or whatever . I've only been crocheting for a few months and have improved a ton just as i do more projects !! also !! if your hands get sore when crocheting i've heard you can get compression gloves to help . they look dumb but like . ya !!
also take breaks and do wrist stretches every so often
can u give me some tips on studying?? I always highlight everything
wow, this is brazilian songg!!!
3:06 now I understand why superhero’s simply wear glasses to hide their entities, you look so like an entirely different person! :0
My screen time is already 8 hours and it’s only 18:30 :’)
omg i want to be a ux designer too!! im thinking about doing a on coursera like you, but do you have to pay once your free trial ends😭😭 please lmk what youre doing!!
First sweeties
IM EARLY WOOO
What program are you using to cut your videos? :3
if you make a few granny squares everyday than you will get a lot of granny squares in a year or a month and you can make a patchwork cardigan^^
your screen time is so short mines like 14 hours lmaoo the rest of the day im sleeping
👍
i'm hella bored ngl, but at least the weather is nice so i can be bored outside
Love this vlog oml!
(gym rat tip to another- when using weight machines, videos on form is incredibly helpful, it reduces the risk of being injured and targets the muscle you want to work. Hope this helps !!
tytyyy!!! and u are so right I will def watch more videos abt form cuz 2 weeks ago I hurt my arms lol ;_;
@funkyfitz aw man that sucks!!! Don't worry, as long as you eat a lot of protein and stretch the muscles that hurt, they should heal up fast! :)
nerd emoji taking notes outside school tee hee
Aaa you crochet too?!?
I know summer is technically over but I'm still in my doom scroll bed rot CZcams binge not summer. My screen time has an average of 9 hours and no I do not like my phone that much I kinda wish I had a life
were the same fr
I need to be more productive. 😭
4 hours is not even that much time 😭
i absolutely love your videos! i’ve been watching for a while and it recently inspired me to make my own channel! I just posted my first video yesterday and it already has 70 views! I learned a lot from your videos and other peoples channels like yours! thank you so much for putting a smile on people’s face’s! keep the content up! (could you maybe pin my comment?) thanks!❤❤❤
helpp my screen time is over 8 hours average on school days 😭😭i dont want to know what it is rn
girl 4 hrs isnt alot os screen time, my screen time at some point it was 19 hrs 💀💀💀💀💀😭
Hello Hello Rui!! I just wanna say i really appreciate your videos
AWWW THANK U SO MUCH FOR WATCHIN EM!! also I love ur pfp hehe
@@funkyfitz thx hehe i am a certified lesbian hastune miku fan XD
funkyfitz, can you make a lookbook again, but muslim friendly. I mean, that i am a muslim and show some outfits or examples how to style. I would be very happy, that you make a video of it. I am not angry, but when you have time for this video but i don't force you to do this video, i just wanted to say a idea for you. Btw, you have a good style and aesthetic, you so calm, kind and a cool person really. ✨️💖💗❤️🌸
id say my summer has been pretty good so far, well except covid basically came back from the dead and found me. ngl i thought it was gone. 👀
and i do also have a couple crochet tips. when I started out it was mess, uneven stitches and random loose ends which resulted in some of the goofiest lookin things. i also really had no concept or understanding of what I was doing when i followed the patterns or why i was doing it. years later, I can say im much more confident in crochet. ok so basically just practice makes progress. as you crochet more, you will learn more. reading and following the patterns really helps aswell as watching tutorials. for the actual crochet part keeping a loose but firm grip on the hook is ideal. and yes, you should count your stitches. ;) moral of the story, the more you crochet the more consistent your stitches will be, the more you will learn, and the more beautiful your crochet pieces will become overtime.
phew that was mouthful 😮💨😮💨
hope that was somewhat helpful and not too confusing. and I hope you have a wonderful rest of your summer ❤❤
