  • 5 a.m.

  • OMG, I want to cry.

  • I feel like throwing up.

  • It's 5:45am right now.

  • I took a shower, I went on my phone for a bit, and

  • now I think i'm gonna do something productive and

  • actually get some work done.

  • I don't know why I'm doing this to myself.

  • I'm not a morning person.

  • Also, I'm filming with my phone right now because my camera broke.

  • I have two exams

  • This is 4.

  • I have two exams coming up, and

  • *gets depressed* I haven't studied for them.

  • Should I eat something?

  • I feel really nauseous but I feel like I should eat something.

  • I have to leave for class in two hours,

  • so I'm going to study for cell bio until then.

  • Ugh, I hate this so much.

  • I did my makeup.

  • I don't usually put on makeup when I go to school,

  • but since I had extra time I put on makeup today.

  • I spent the past half an hour just staring off into space.

  • I'm just not productive in the morning,

  • but hopefully this gets better throughout the week

  • because if it doesn't, I'm just gonna be really sad.

  • I have some cereal.

  • Yes, I eat cereal out of a cup

  • It's because I didn't wash my dishes.

  • I only have one cereal bowl

  • and I didn't wash my dishes,

  • so I'm gonna eat it out of a cup.

  • Please don't judge.

  • The cereal is so stale.

  • It's pretty old.

  • I'm gonna take something DayQuil.

  • How do I manage to still be late after waking up at 5am?

  • I need to leave in a minute.

  • So, I'm back at home.

  • I'm gonna do my neuroscience homework.

  • I should be able to get through this fairly quickly.

  • And then, I'm gonna eat dinner.

  • So excited for that.

  • This is the best my voice has been today.

  • I'm gonna stop talking.

  • A lot of people say that I sound like Cardi B when I'm sick

  • which I don't even know if that's a compliment or not.

  • But yeah, I'm gonna do my homework.

  • People with happy social lives

  • are less likely to develop a cold when exposed to a virus.

  • Likewise, people who tend to feel positive emotions

  • will also produce more antibodies in response to a flu vaccination.

  • Is that toothpaste?

  • Yes, that is toothpaste.

  • I took NyQuil, and I completely knocked out last night.

  • I had a really bad fever too,

  • but I'm getting better,

  • so hopefully by tomorrow, I'll be fine.

  • These are the famous Korean fire noodles,

  • but instead of the original sauce, they have the black bean sauce.

  • It's not even half as spicy as the original,

  • which I like because I can't eat spicy things.

  • I'm gonna eat one and a half.

  • I find that one is too little,

  • but two is too much, so I'm just gonna put half of this in.

  • This is conveniently broken in half.

  • That's beautiful.

  • I just dropped the other half in the sink.

  • What the hell?

  • Why am I like this?

  • Where'd my filter go?

  • What the hell?

  • Am I tripping?

  • Where'd my filter go?

  • What?

  • What?

  • What?

  • Stay hydrated, kids.

  • What?

  • I only put one of the sauce packages in,

  • but I think it looks good enough.

  • This does not look appetizing. I don't know why.

  • It's 9:30 p.m.

  • I'm planning on going to sleep right now.

  • I've been sleeping pretty early these days.

  • I'm gonna wake up a little bit earlier than usual.

  • Instead of 5am, I'm gonna wake up at 4am

  • or TRY to wake up at 4am.

  • I'm gonna take a shower, get ready and study.

  • I have my cell bio exam at noon tomorrow,

  • but I have classes before that,

  • and I won't be able to study that much,

  • so I have to wake up a little bit earlier to study

  • and just finish up some work.

  • So yep.

  • Good night, everyone. I'll see you tomorrow.

  • I don't know how people can wake up before the Sun even rises like

  • I see the moon.

  • Oh wait, that's not the moon.

  • My camera is arriving today, so that's something to look forward to.

  • If I fail my exam, at least my camera is coming.

  • It's so hard for me to not procrastinate.

  • You can give me five years to finish one project, and

  • I'll only start like two days before it's due.

  • I want to become a TikTok star.

  • My socks are wet.

  • This is the worst feeling ever.

  • (walking home after the exam)

  • Hey, guys.

  • I just got my camera.

  • I know for a fact I'm gonna break this so quickly.

  • The screen is supposed to be put like that,

  • but if you want to flip it over,

  • you have to detach this thing

  • and then do this.

  • Why would anyone want to put this kind of camera in my hands?

  • I am pretty reckless with these kinds of things.

  • Hopefully, I don't break it.

  • Compared to my old camera,

  • it's definitely a little bit bulkier, especially the lens.

  • This. I just don't agree with this.

  • This is just asking for it to be broken.

  • That was a picture.

  • I also got this huge package from the one and only Mattel.

  • (when I care about the pictures more than the actual dolls lol)

  • Okay, but I'm actually really surprised that they got the noses right.

  • The noses are actually super accurate.

  • The noses are super accurate.

  • The features are pretty accurate.

  • I just don't know...

  • It's probably the hair that's...

  • Yeah, it's the hair.

  • There's a rumor going around that...

  • I'm not sleeping tonight.

  • My physics exam is at 7:45 a.m. tomorrow.

  • I'm debating on whether I should drink black tea

  • or if I should drink actual coffee.

  • The black tea kept me up last night.

  • I wasn't able to fall asleep,

  • so I guess it's working.

  • It's currently 11:20 p.m.

  • I got super hungry while studying,

  • so I'm gonna get some Uber Eats.

  • I usually order from McDonald's or Panda Express,

  • but neither of them seem to be open.

  • I've never tried any of these, so I'm just going through a dilemma right now.

  • Also I sneezed, and my right ear popped in a weird way,

  • so I can't really hear myself talking right now,

  • so that's great.

  • I'm not a fan of burgers.

  • I guess this is just a sign for me to...

  • order from Papa John's.

  • I already ate cheese sticks.

  • Do I want another pizza?

  • Pizza

  • I had zero hours of sleep.

  • (finally cleaning my apartment after the exam!!)

  • I'm finally done! Yay!

  • It might not look that clean to you guys,

  • but to me this is the best it's ever gonna get.

  • I never got to do a proper apartment tour

  • so I think I'm just gonna do one really quickly.

  • This is the overview.

  • That's my kitchen area,

  • my study/desk area.

  • This is where I sleep.

  • And then, here I have a closet,

  • a drawer to put in clothes

  • and then I have my makeup vanity.

  • This mirror is from Tenergy. I got it 2-3 years ago,

  • and I absolutely love it.

  • I have all my makeup stuff here.

  • Here, I keep all my skincare stuff.

  • It's really hard to keep this place organized as well

  • because I have very limited storage space.

  • Underneath here, I keep all the extra skin care,

  • shampoo, conditioner, bath bombs, hair dyes, stuff like that.

  • This is my bathroom.

  • It has a toilet and a bathtub.

  • Let me show you what's in my fridge.

  • In my freezer, I have some polaroid film.

  • Here is a rotten banana,

  • frozen blueberries, cheesecake, rice.

  • And then in my fridge, I have some old rice,

  • some lettuce, face masks.

  • I have some eggs, yogurt, pizza, salad dressing.

  • I only have like one drop of soy milk in here.

  • Yeah, that's basically it.

  • I just feel like this whole waking up at 5 a.m. thing does not work for me

  • because I need to get stuff done.

  • I can't afford to sleep at 11.

  • Obviously, me waking up at 5

  • is supposed to make up for the fact that I'm sleepy early, '

  • but it doesn't because I wake up,

  • and I don't really do anything.

  • I wake up, I go on my phone for a while,

  • I get up, take a shower,

  • I try to be productive, but I don't end up actually being productive

  • because I am not a morning person.

  • I really want to go back to sleep.

  • It feels like it's 2 a.m. and I haven't slept yet.

  • Today has to be the most difficult day so far

  • for waking up at 5am.

  • I'm just tempted to to go back to sleep.

  • I have a little bit of work to do

  • so I'm just gonna do that in hopes of maybe waking up.

  • I have this online homework assignment to finish up,

  • so I guess I'm gonna do that.

  • Cooking with Yoora!

  • I'm gonna make some fried rice.

  • If you watched my videos last year,

  • you would know that I used to eat this almost every day.

  • It's super easy to make so

  • first, get some spam.

  • I cut about two slices of spam.

  • Should I do 3? I'm a do 3

  • Cuz I have a bit of rice over there.

  • Take these pieces and chop them into cubes.

  • easy peasy

  • I'm gonna get about 1.5 tbsp of butter.

  • Just letting that melt.

  • And then, you're gonna take some cold rice

  • and put it in here.

  • oh shit

  • And then from here, I'm gonna crack two eggs in.

  • And then from here, if you want, you could top it off with ketchup.

  • trying to write an essay...

  • going to an asian grocery store!

  • eating at a korean restaurant with a friend

  • It's currently 8 p.m. and I'm so tired.

  • I just want to go to sleep.

  • I think I'm gonna sleep early tonight

  • so that I can wake up early tomorrow again.

  • I didn't really do much today.

  • It's 4:59 a.m.

  • It's supposed to be 6am, but

  • last night was daylight savings so we got pushed back an hour,

  • so everyone got an extra hour of sleep, which I'm super happy about.

  • Guess what? I still need to write my essay.

  • This is horrible.

  • See? This is what I mean by "I only work well under pressure".

  • I need to write this today.

  • As you guys know, I've been waking up at 5am for the past week.

  • And I thought I would just sit down and talk to you guys

  • about what I think about waking up at 5 a.m.

  • whether I liked it, whether I didn't like it,

  • if I'm gonna continue doing it.

  • First of all, I do not think I'm going to continue waking up by 5 a.m.

  • It's just too much.

  • Because of my schedule, I would be 10 times more productive

  • if I slept late and woke up late.

  • I think there are people who function better in the morning,

  • and there are also people who function better at night.

  • Not everyone has to be a morning person in my opinion

  • and not everyone can be a morning person.

  • As a result of me trying to force myself

  • to become a morning person for a week,

  • I realized that it just doesn't work that way.

  • For the days that I didn't have exams

  • or I wasn't pressured to actually be productive in the morning

  • -- for example, during the weekends,

  • yesterday and today--

  • I just found myself wasting time.

  • I didn't really do anything. I just stared off into space.

  • I just went on my phone for hours and hours of hours.

  • For me, I just feel like I could have been sleeping during those hours, and

  • I could have been happier.

  • Personally, I've adapted this living pattern

  • during my college years where I will be productive...

  • at night.

  • Bottom line:

  • As long as you have your own routine set out and

  • you know when you're most productive,

  • just go with that.

  • There were a lot of good things about waking up at 5am.

  • The first one is my days seemed a lot longer.

  • Usually, during the weekends, I wake up at like 2:00 p.m.

  • I'll always feel like I don't have enough time in the day to do anything,

  • but waking up at 5:00 a.m., my days are so much longer.

  • But, I also get a lot more tired throughout the day,

  • so there is a trade-off there.

  • Also, waking up at the same time every day throughout the week

  • I think it helped me adjust my circadian rhythm.

  • All of my classes don't start at the same time every day,

  • so I'm used to waking up at 7 a.m. one day

  • and 10 a.m. another day or

  • 2 p.m. during the weekends,

  • so I'm constantly just shifting my sleeping pattern

  • everyday throughout the week, and I don't think that's good for me.

  • I'm constantly tired.

  • But yeah, thanks for watching this video.

  • I will see you in my next video.

5 a.m.
