you trade coffee for sponsoring this video hey girl what's popping welcome back to another vlog um if you're new here hey my name is caro do not forget to like comment arrive so i am gonna start this video off late it's a late start for me um well not really i woke up early i had to go get my massage but i just want to take y'all through a day in the life of me as being like you know a youtuber and me like you know trying to stay focused i get so many questions on how i stay focused like what do i do as far as some youtube stuff going so i'm gonna just take y'all along with me uh through a whole day because i'm very busy i just got back from my yummy yesterday and girl talk about work overload i'm literally stressed but i'm trying to stay calm and just you know push through so today i have a lot to do um so i want to take y'all with me just to show y'all like the things that i do um i do sometimes i do try and play my day but most of the time it doesn't go that way but today i have a few things i have to do so right now before i get started um because i have to film two videos today and i gotta edit um it's only two o'clock it feels so much later because the daylight's even so the sun looks like it's setting right now it's like it feels like five o'clock but it's only two um but i gotta make a video live so that's what i'm about to do um it is a sponsored video so i have to make it live so that's what i'm about to do right now it's already uploaded um i just have to make the thumbnail and the links to the clothes in the video because it's a sponsored video so that's what i'm about to do right now i'm gonna show y'all what i do for i don't have a bit right now and i'll explain later i don't i'm gonna show y'all what i do for my thumbnails it's real simple for right now um i don't use anything crazy or anything like that um but i'm just putting all the details and stuff on this video before i move on to the next thing because i did just get home i would have did this earlier but my video took two hours to download from final cuts pro and um then i had to go to my appointment in chicago so um but i just let the video load on so you too i was gone so i'm gonna name this vlog new clothes first time getting a wax since the l oh no lips and more all right so then i just gotta fill in the description uh i have to do all this yeah yeah like i said i will explain why i don't have a baby so yeah so um so if you're a creator i would suggest you get um a magic links literally you can get so much money that like this is another form of income that i have so i work with magic links and magic links is um basically you get to link like stuff um they have stuff on like stores that will allow you to link like basically it's like a suggestion so basically say for instance like i'm also for a website and i think and i use this product and i tell you the um and i mention it and i link it you make the link to the product and that will be your personal link so if anybody buys um the product that you mentioned you get commission off that so it's a form of income and then also when the brands on this website see that you are making a whole bunch of money for them or you know they're interested in you um and they see how you know you are advertising your stuff and how much money and commission you are making the certain brands will reach out to you to work with you to pay you um you know a rate and then also uh commission as well so double the pay so yeah it's pretty dope i'm glad i made one because this is fucking late um and i'm excuse my language but it's late oh yeah i work with nasiel through magic links and right now i'm going to make links for the clothes i have in the video and i'm going to show you how i do it okay so in the video i had worked with nasiel damn this shit is sold out so um i'm not going to link this so i got this set in the video this set right here so i'm going to copy this and then go to magic links and then paste this right here create a link copy the link and then we're going to go to my description box paste so then i'm going to put on here what is called the pocket of conversation nonsense but nobody's gonna know i'm sorry i'm gonna put cream off the shoulder lounge set and that's gonna be linked on here so yeah so i'm about to link all the clothes that i have in this blog um so that's what i'm about to do so i'm just gonna roll that but yeah so i would suggest you make a magic link if you are a creator or just you know you can be you can just do you uh instagram not even have youtube um you just have to be accepted so yes if you just can't make it they have to accept you or you gotta like apply for it and stuff like that so like um on the main page would say i'm a creator or a brand you just have to fill out some stuff and then they go and check your profile and they'll be like okay approved um so yes make a magic links if you are because t is actually income girl like it's crazy how much you can make it's crazy as fuck but okay let me just get to doing this and i will talk to y'all in a minute so i just got done doing the description for the video it does take a little minute but now i'm about to make the thumbnail so a picture i want from the video um to be in my thumbnail is this because obviously i want a clothing piece to show so and i use final cut pro to edit my videos and this is how you save a video a picture from the video you just go to save current frame and you can also use um iMovie if you have a mac it's literally the same thing like literally but they just have more transitions and stuff and like um like a special effect if you want to just be extra basically but it's literally the same so i'll just basically show see where this is at normally it won't pop up be more recent and then i'll just airdrop it to my phone so i got the photo so i normally just use over well i got a motorbike first hold on let me go like that so i would a motorbike and then um i probably it depends on how many pictures i want in the thumbnail so i may do this one because there's a few things going on in this vlog so then i put it to 16 9 because that's the thumbnail size there you go and then i'm going to add this in there so that's one picture for the thumbnail wrong yeah look at my picture in my phone y'all know when you show somebody something and they just look at all in your other pictures like what are you doing i didn't tell you to do that but i think i took a picture okay so now i got the thumbnail that i want oh my god a minute left really so i'm in the over app and i go to image and then i click my image that i want which was the thumbnail i just made and then i scroll over to thumbnail so it's already preset oh my god hold on okay i just had to delete some memory hold on okay so now i just made the thumbnail so i usually put the thumbnail in my phone um put the thumbnail on the video in my phone so now that's ready to go live so that checks one thing off my list for today and i'm going to try i have to hurry um and film my video before the sun goes on because i like the natural light and my um big lights from i got these from amazon i like these being on in y'all my bed is like this just because i y'all like the full body effect and everything of triumph so i just you know i gotta get the content so i just put my bed up in y'all probably like where do you sleep then pull don't worry about it just know that i'm getting a good night's rest okay but yeah so yeah and i'm not taking this bed with me when i move anyway so i probably am gonna just throw it out or something but um because i have this is the full and there's a queen my mom had uh ordered extra i guess it's in the basement so i'm gonna take that bed with me when i move but this is just up so yeah i use these lights from amazon i'm not sure where that from um but i can leak them they're just those um big um they it usually has like a screen right here but i don't use it um really make the best out of what i have like i uh try not to think about it now that i have a lot of things to do now it'll stressful for me um because in my room i have everything that you will leave in your house like your bathroom stuff my makeup my clothes like everything that will be spread out in your house is all in this room but i can't wait to move and have just space but if you're an upcoming youtuber and you don't have a lot of space just make the best of it do what you gotta do move stuff around just do what i do okay and just push through it'll be fine um because it's really level to the shape i always say that i always say that so i'm about to let my camera charge and i'm about to get in the shower and then i have to get um the stuff ready to film for the haul um i gotta hang it up so that's what i'm gonna do when i get off the shower and then i gotta make the video live so yeah so i'm gonna let my camera charge and yeah and i also film like my big main videos on this sony vz one um and also vlog as i am now um just because it's easier to maneuver i do have like a cannon but that uh connects to my what is it my laptop i gotta pee y'all sorry i'm a little antsy that um hooks up to my computer so it's like a monitor um but i'm not doing that right now i'm not doing any of that stuff until i move like any of like big tech stuff i just need quick and easy for me right now but let me go to the bathroom and i will show you how i film and stuff once okay y'all so it's been a little bit i had to let my camera charge so now we finna get it to recording all of these beautiful pieces um so yeah so i just set up everything so these are how the lights look and i have so much space here the mirror set up right there so i'm gonna have the camera back more so it's like that so it can get full body because i am gonna be using this camera but i wish this would go up more i gotta find some tape real quick but yeah i'm about to record and i just made my video live and that's doing really good and then after i record this video i'm going to um sit down and comment back because i love to communicate and be engaged with y'all that's my favorite thing ever is to be engaged that's very important when you're coming up be engaged don't act like you're too good do not do it because you they just won't fuck with you like that um and i really care

tape to lift this up because i'm using my um little tripod that comes with my ring light so and then i just screwed my camera on right there so yeah so let's get this started because i have so much more to do so let's get it okay i'm about to put y'all right here from this angle just to show y'all so i'm about to practice and see if it looks good for wow anyway hey y'all what's popping welcome

the video so then yeah i just check it okay perfect this thing i moved in here so so y'all i'm about to record okay so i just do that so now that i like everything i'm going to continue on filming and i will see y'all once i'm done this angle is so fucking weird but yeah i'm gonna see what's i'm done and i have uh two phones in the ad board so y'all i gotta get the wait next okay y'all so i just got done filming my video it's about nine o'clock right now it's still early so right now i am about to check on the video that i posted today that i made live um and she's performing very well um but right now i'm going to let's take a little lunch break because i haven't ate all day and um i'm about to eat a salad and reply to comments um like i said i love engaging with y'all i love talking to y'all so this is one of my favorite things to do especially if i have time like if i have time to do it i will sit down and reply to comment so out so that's what i'm gonna do right now and then i'm about to probably check like while i'm eating my salad i'm about to um wow what's in there i'm about to um watch some videos as well so yeah and then now also this salad is from peniel bread this is my favorite type of salad y'all a greek salad with extra dressing and olives baby so i'm gonna show y'all um some more work that i have to do i'm gonna edit for the rest of tonight but i need to turn in some stuff for um savage um some instagram stories so i pre-recorded some so now i just need to uh make the story cute so i did this already so i wanted to be cute so savage is a little bit strict and like you know um obviously it's a big brand and they have expectations so i like to make sure everything is you know a okay and good so i'm gonna use this um yeah this app called unfold to make the story cute and it has a whole bunch of different pre filters where all you need to do is just insert a video or photo that you want and it just automatically makes a story for you so i've been liking to post the product and me talking in the video so i pre-recorded the shoot i pre-recorded everything so okay so for instance this red top instagram stories my camera died so i'm about to show y'all because i made them last night so i'm gonna show y'all how to make and i had to turn the video so so this is how it came out like real cute like it's just a cute story and it's just cute and professional i feel like to have yeah so i feel like making these stories i don't know it just makes the story look put together not sloppy and you know i feel like certain brands are top-notch so you need to come correct you know what i'm saying so i made those with the app over no i made those with the app unfold i'm gonna just screen record my screen i showed y'all um a little bit in the beginning pre-recorded um like stories so basically all you need to do is just choose the one that you want and then you know go from here so normally i choose this one and i'm just gonna redo what i did and then you can choose the background um there's more but you gotta pay for it and i'm not paying for it all right i like the free stuff okay so this is cute yeah and you can just make it your own like and this is dope when you want to just have a more put together looking story or something like that are cute just for the aesthetics and you can add text and everything it just looks clean and just energy shows the brand that you take your page and stuff serious i feel like so and not trying to bullshit i mean they probably wouldn't say anything if it was regular but you know this is my first time working with him so i've been liking to come correct um so yeah and then you just save it i like that yeah so yeah that's what i had to do yesterday before i went to sleep and then i was editing um some videos but i woke up between i woke up at like four and i went back to sleep i'm like okay i'm gonna wake up when i go to sleep um when i go to sleep early when i yeah when i go to sleep early i wake up early and i'm like damn i wanted to get that done like i swear like when you work for yourself when you work for yourself you work more than a nine five i swear to you like it's

woke up early once again why the fuck i gotta put my memory card in fucking um yeah but um anyways so i'm on my way to the shy um i don't know if i told y'all before but i've been really on a hunt for like some really good boots like to wear on a daily and um the Prada boots um have been really hard to find because they've been sold out so um oh like i was saying before i was interrupted um yeah so i'm going to chicago and the boots have been sold out for so long and they literally text me out the blue it was like we have the shoe like and i was like oh my god let me come try it on because i know um i'm gonna wear these like often and if i get like a designer shoe or something i'm gonna know that i'm gonna wear like i'm gonna you know wear it so and i know y'all been wanting to see these shoes because um i posted on my twitter and y'all was like oh my god show it show it show it so i was like of course i'm gonna show it now of course so this is no question so i am going to just record on my phone i don't know how they're gonna be um it's like i set an appointment to do this and the dude that i've been texting he's not there um he's on vacation or something so i'm gonna put the manager so it's gonna be a little different um so i don't know how this person is gonna be they be look like real iffy but i gotta look at my gps so i'm gonna put my camera down and then i'm gonna record them off on like i said so i'll see y'all see y'all so i'm ever since i got home i've been editing and i'm about to show y'all a trick i don't know if i ever showed y'all this um but i couldn't okay so this for this video i'm editing um i could use plugins for this video right like i could um insert like the name of something right here and put it down because i'm editing that clothing haul that i um showed y'all in the beginning of the video and i want to label put on there like what the brand is like on the bottom of the screen but um plugins kind of make my computer go slow um um but i just ordered something um because i have all these things saved in the plugins can make my thing go um slow so i really don't feel like dealing with that right now so what i'm about to do is i'm about to oh wait i'm trying to set y'all up so what i'm about to do is i'm about to write down all the names of the brands that i have in the video and then i'm going to on my phone use over app and this is what i was doing um in the beginning when a lot of people thought i was using final cut already but i really wasn't i was using just the over app and i would go in the over app and use the transparent and then i would just write out the text that i wanted because obviously in iMovie they be having that child just add shit in here like what the fuck like you want your stuff to be like clean and stuff so i like using um certain fonts so i'm gonna i know for a fact i got this brand in here so i'm gonna just write it out uh just to oh this is cute no more spending nah um let me get off of there but um okay i'm gonna write it out kim shui studio and then go back to the app so i'm gonna put kim shui studio i can see kim shui studio on the transparent so when it comes up on the screen it's no background i don't know if y'all knew that or not but yeah so so i'm just gonna airdrop it in here oh it just came to my computer right oh what the fuck so it just came to my computer so i'm just gonna drag it out the message down here and i'll just drag it right into final cut so and then i'm going to go by the kim shui where's she at i'm trying to do really good at it on this video oh here she go okay so i'm gonna put that right there and then i'm going to press transform and put this right here in the corner maybe i should have did it white yeah i should have did it white damn yeah i think i like the white better hold on okay i changed it so now i'm about to add a pop sound effect and i just download this by um youtube mp3 just so it can have like some sound so you'll see it come up so let me see yeah so that's how i do stuff um as far as like labeling and stuff um i used to do that for a long time in i movie um just because i movie doesn't have any fonts or i mean they do but you can't use any plugins for your video to make them like cute so yeah you can do that for anything like any like edit that you want like you can always just do it from your phone the airdrop it and put it in um to whatever you're editing with so and make it look nice like you don't have to get final cut like honestly like the shit is the same but yeah so i'm just gonna finish editing this video then i have and it's only four o'clock five o'clock i can't feel so fucking late but i'm going to finish editing this video and then i'm going to get a shower and then i gotta film another video and then take some pics well i really don't need to i don't i gotta make an instagram story and then that's it um i'm so tired y'all like i'm literally so sleepy like i haven't had any good rest these past couple days because i've been having to get up and edit and do work um but i'm so blessed i'm so grateful like i literally was like thinking why am i so stressed over something i'm like i'm literally i had a bad morning i'm not gonna lie to y'all about something and i'm like why do i feel like this even though i'm so blessed and i'm so grateful for y'all and that's what keeps me going honestly like y'all love me so much and i love y'all so much back so the support is real so anyway i'm about to finish this video because i need to go up today and i want it up by seven o'clock so yeah and then i'll probably do my makeup over again and do what i gotta do for tonight and then yeah so let's get away so video is complete but i just uploaded one of my photos from miami

are blowing it up and i just like to sit and engage with y'all that's one of the things i like to do and um i like to comment back on what y'all are saying um just to get y'all feedback y'all i'm like anxious right now i drink too much coffee today like i just can't but yeah i'm just gonna do this for a little bit while my thing uploads my video and then i have to drop a wig off um and then i i'm just gonna edit today um and i'm not gonna film another video i'm just gonna edit because i have a lot to edit um so yeah so i'm just gonna do this for a little bit and then yeah talk to you guys

nice but so it comes with like the receipt so i gotta save that and then this little box right here right here uh and then look at the boot y'all so this is the boot it's a leather in the nylon the nylon is right here in the middle and then it comes with this little pouch you can take the pouch off i've seen some girls um actually detach the pouch and put on their wrist i'm not doing that um i'm just gonna keep it on there but um they smell like a fresh shoe i love the fresh i'm gonna try them on for y'all just to show y'all how they look i'm gonna actually try both pairs on just to show y'all and i wanted a boot with like um shoe strings that tie up i guess you can say and these ones fit me so perfect i mean they're just a little tight right here but you can just always um adjust the strings to your likey but they fit really good i'm glad i got waiting to get a 40 and a half and a 40 and they don't make my feet look big so that's always a problem okay y'all so this is how i look i love them so cute i just gotta break them in for sure but yeah these is it i love them so cute i love them they're only tight um right here like literally right here and i think i just gotta break
