Hey guys, this is Rafi welcome to a lazy vlog today

Today is Sunday, and I'm basically the whole day here in my room

Past simple

My host family went somewhere in the city

My room is a complete mess today, I have to clean this up and...

You know, this is where I put all my clothes and then here and this is my desk where I usually study

well, I think I don't have to comment that xd

But yeah, this is the view from my window. It's nothing special...

It's basically... I live in a... "community" here in Beijing

Basically how Beijing works in a lot of places is that there are some... well, kind of communities of flats, you know

I live in a flat and then there are these other flats...

I'm just watching the second season of Boku no Hero Academia

Because I want to study Japanese in about 20 minutes

But every time before I study Japanese I watch one episode of an anime

To kind of get me motivated because when I hear the language, I instantly want to study it

It's like a trigger for me, when I hear the language I'm like.. amazed how it works and then I want to study

So yeah, I always watch like one episode and then I study for like 30 minutes also earlier

Also earlier I was editing Rafi's vlog #11, but... this is Rafi's vlog #11. This is gonna be number 12

I'm just kind of stuck. I don't really know how to address this

Maybe I can try to explain this on my way to the supermarket, which is actually that way

I'm just shooting this way so you can see me, because here's a window and like this you wouldn't be able to see anything xd

There is kind of a strong wind in Beijing today. So I hope the audio won't be completely shit

this is the community that I was talking about, basically a big place full of flats

and just.. just flats and this is like a small park in the middle of all of it

So the thing that I wanted to address is that there's a pattern in my vlogs that I noticed when I was rewatching my vlogs from Japan

The pattern was basically the fact that I was trying to give a theme to every single one of my vlogs from Japan

Which it... for me at least it kind of seems a bit unnatural

and don't get me wrong I'm not saying that it's incorrect to make a theme for every single one of your vlogs

I know a lot of youtubers do that. I just think that it's not my style.

Anyways, this is the district where I live umm... yeah basically...

It's pretty cool, pretty cool... big city it I must say

In my previous vlogs my lifestyle seems very exaggerated...

Propably over-exaggerated because it's all edited vlogs, and I've never actually done a vlog of my normal day like today for example

When I'm just in bed with my computer and you know water, bread, I just bought water and bread

Because in reality I'm actually not that hyped, I just usually.. most of the days I would just like to stay in my cozy blanket

..that is pink on the inside by the way..

and I just, you know, I like to chill, I...

I'm in my bed with the dozens of my notebooks studying languages and...

A lot of people are commenting that they are jealous of my lifestyle under my previous vlogs

which makes me feel kind of bad because to you guys it seems like

But to be honest, the majority of my life is just me in my bed with my computer

Of course I want my vlogs to be entertaining but.. (ᴗ ͜ʖ ᴗ)

At the same time. I also want to be myself and I don't want to show you guys the unrealistic version of my life

Only excitement and adventures. I also want to show you my normal days, which is exactly this vlog

Okay, so it's the evening now, today I've just been like studying Chinese as you could see, umm...

And yeah, I've just watched the whole Leafy interview from DramaAlert

that's how you know that this log is actually recent xd

But yeah, I wanted to talk about one more thing in this vlog and that is...

Why haven't I made a vlog in such a long time?

It's because I spent most of my time here in China either in school, on my way to school, or on my way back home from school

So every day I come home at like 5:30pm, and then I have to do my homework

I have to study.. or either I just want to chill and just like watch your show because I'm tired

and... editing also takes a lot of the time

You see this is my computer. It's really nothing special, it's a lenovo.. I don't even know what the name is..

but I edit my videos on Sony Vegas and I have to say it's so slow like my computer is like

four years old now and it's like it's so slow that the edit that would normally take maybe..

~4 to 6 hours then takes 10 hours, 11 hours, 12 hours, and that's such a big amount of demotivation when you just like want to do the video

But the program is so slow that you can't even do it at your own speed

Anyways, that is probably all I can say about the explanation for why am I not making as many videos as I would want to..

Anyways guys, I hope you enjoyed this video, just my normal day full of explanations where I've actually been

I'm in China for two months already, so yeah, there's that

uhh... So yeah, I'm gonna eat some some bread right now, and you know, go get some bread, too. I'll see you next time!
