Hi guys! Welcome back to my channel my
name's Ella if you're new here if not
then hello!
In today's video I'm gonna be
showing you some really fun activities
to do at home when you finished your
studying. I know that it can get quite
boring just staying at home so I thought
it'd be really fun to show you some
ideas or fun activities to do. This video
is actually a collab with my friend Alex
she's an American college student and
she's gonna be showing you five
activities and I'm also going to be
showing you five activities. So when you
finish watching my video make sure to
pop over to her channel and watch her
five activities I'll make sure to link
her channel down below and also up here
I've been doing a lot of these
activities myself and I found I've been
a lot more motivated to actually do my
studying and things like that because
I've set aside time to do some fun
activities. So I hope you guys learn from
both mine and Alex's video and find some
really fun things that you can do in
your spare time. If you do enjoy this
video then I'd love if you gave it a big
thumbs up and subscribe and let's just
get on into the video
Okay the first activity I'm gonna do is
some painting! So I really enjoy
painting I have some watercolors here
and some brushes that I got from Amazon.
Painting is a really nice way just to
completely relax and it's just really
nice to be creative sometimes
so if painting is something that you
like to do then this is a great activity
to do when you've finished all your
studying. So I don't know what I'm gonna
pay it I think I might do some
flowers and some plants so yeah let's
just get on into it
Okay so I just finished. This is or what
I've got. Loads of little plants and kind
of flowers and things like that all nice
and colorful. But yeah that is my first
activity: painting. I really enjoy it is
really relaxing and it's just you know
stress-free so I really recommend you
guys doing some painting as a first
activity.
So as you can see I'm outside
for this next activity and it is to take
some photos! Now it's been so nice and
sunny in England recently, so I thought
I'd take advantage of the sun and take
some photos of some flowers in my garden
I have my camera but you can just use
kind of any phone camera as they're
pretty good but yeah let's go take some
photos!
Look how pretty the flowers are
I'm going to take some photos of that.
Purple like this is my favorite color so I'm
gonna take some photos of these
We're back inside now for this next
activity and it is to redo and
organize your room or working space.
So since I moved back home from
university I find it really hard to
organize my makeup collection so that's
what we're gonna do now. I need to
declutter it all and put away some
things. So that's what I really recommend
you guys to do to just organize anything
in your room or in your study area and
make sure that everything is perfect
So this is the state of my makeup as
you can see it's just all over the desk
I don't know where to put it. So I'm
gonna try and put some things in here in
here and find a place for my eyeshadow
palette so let's do that now. I've decided I'm
gonna put my eye shadow palettes in this
draw here because it fits really nicely
I'm gonna put my brushes in this bag and
everything like makeup wise in this
container here
I basically put my foundation and
things in there - my mascaras here any eyebrow
products in there and then as I said I
put my palletes that I've got here into
the drawer and that's just a lot nicer
I really I really think that's just a
lot cleaner and everything like that
which is good so yeah that's what my
makeup collection looks like now it's
quite minimum because a lot of my things
are still at university but that's
why I really recommend the activity to
redo and organize your room because
things can be a lot more cleaner
in the kitchen for the next activity and
is to do some baking I absolutely love
baking I have such a sweet tooth so I
thought this would be a great activity
to share unfortunately since the shots
are getting more and more empty I don't
have enough gradients to make something
from scratch so we have this kit here
it's a Betty Crocker chocolate fudge
brownie kit and I absolutely love these
they're so much fun I think all you add
is egg and oil so I'm going to be making
these and yeah baking is just such a
nice way to relax and you could also get
sweet Chi at the same time so that's
good
I've just turned the oven on and now I'm
going to put the mix into the bowl with
the egg and oil so let's do it
okay I'm just mixing up now and it
smells so tasty I always pick out how
tasty these brownies are you can see
this is what it looks like it looks so
tasty and now I'm going to get some
parchment paper and put the whole mix
into big chain didn't you think
I just put them in the oven and I'm
gonna bake them for about 20 minutes
because I like them quite gooey and the
artisans who explain more about why
baking is really good activity obviously
working and studying from home is quite
stressful and I just find baking a
really nice way to kind of cool down and
relax after a stressful day not only can
you make some really delicious treats
like brownies but it's a really nice way
just to have a nice relaxed and feel
more at home when you're working so it's
just come out of the oven and this is
what it looks like I'm gonna let it cool
and then cut it up into little pieces
okay we're now on to our final activity
and it is to make some tic TOCs pretty
much everyone I know has picked a hook
but if you don't it's basically this app
where you can make 15-second or 60
second videos it's a bit like fine it's
a bit like musically and you can make
dance videos you can make funny videos
you can pretty much just film whatever
you like I have my own tick-tock based
on my YouTube and it's where I help
people out with student tips so I'm
gonna be filming a few of those today
and I thought I'd bring you along so
this is where I film my tic TOCs I'm in
my living room and I've got a really
nice background behind me and what I
like to do is place my phone in front of
me sitting down so I just have a nice
background so today I'm gonna be a
filming how to work from home if you
haven't already seen my latest video I
filmed a whole YouTube video about it
but I'm gonna do a quick 15-second one
on tick tock so let's find a sorry
I hate so I'm all done now and this is
what the Tech Talk looks like
okay so that's my tick-tock done like I
said you can pretty much make any kind
of tick-tock you can do talents ones you
can do funny ones you do makeup anything
that interests you I just like doing
shoot tips because that's what adjusts
me so they weren't my five fun
activities to do when you're in
