An Average Day in My Life
Hello to all! Today’s blog post is unlike anything I have done before. I am going to discuss what a normal day in my life looks like-that is a normal weekday!
My life is pretty simple. Of course, every day varies, but in general, this is what a workday looks like for me! Let’s get into it~
MORNINGS BEFORE WORK
I wake up pretty early, anywhere between 6-6:30! I have to be in Downtown Long Beach for work by 9am and so, I like to have optimal time to get ready for the day.
The first thing I do when I get up is wash my face and do my morning skincare routine.
Once im done with my skincare, I go into the kitchen to make a healthy breakfast.
I truly believe that to have a good day, you should eat a hearty breakfast! I usually make oatmeal, egg whites, and toast a multi-grain waffle. I am not a coffee drinker, but I am a huge tea lover and my tea of choice for the mornings is English breakfast.
After breakfast, I brush my teeth and pick out my outfit for the day. Usually, I already have something in mind making it a quick process.
Lastly, I do my makeup before heading out for work at around 8:20. This is my favorite part of the morning! I am not good at makeup and to be honest, I don’t really know what I’m doing but it’s a relaxing and therapeutic experience for me. Below is my makeup set up; yes, I am indeed one of those girls who does their makeup on the floor.
WORK
I get to work at 9am, and for five hours, I do data entry and write about furniture. I must admit, it is a pretty random job but I enjoy it!
AFTER WORK
After I get off work, I drive back to the South Bay where I live. I am usually home by 3.
I don’t get a lunch break, so I am always starving after work! I either drive home and eat leftovers or I stop somewhere before I get home for food.
Sometimes I get Panera or Chick-Fil-A. If I really want to treat myself, my guilty pleasure is Mcdonalds. TBH, nothing can ever compare to Mcdonald’s fries.
After my lunch, I do random things around my house. Sometimes I tidy up or sometimes I start writing a new blog post or read. Either way, I try to be productive as much as I can.
EVENING
Being productive also means being active for me. Once I stop feeling too full from lunch, I go ride my bike on the beach strand. I go before the sun goes down and ride for about an hour.
I do have a gym membership but, I love being outdoors, especially on a sunny day! The photo above was taken on one of my rides from last week.
Once I get home from the beach, I like to chill before dinner time. I answers texts and scroll through social media. I am really into Tik Tok so sometimes, I scroll for a little too long!
NIGHTTIME
When it gets dark, I shower and do my nighttime skincare routine.
After I eat dinner, I usually catch up on some Netflix. Currently, I am watching “The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez”, season 2 of Narcos Mexico, and a few other shows.
I use the nighttime to relax and decompress. I go to sleep early and wake up early, so I like to make sure I am ready for the next day!
I also use the nighttime to call my boyfriend Cain (he is currently living in OKC).
I am asleep latest by 10:30 but usually a little before. And that’s it, that’s my whole day in a nutshell.
As I said in the beginning, this is what an average weekday looks like if I don’t have any errands or plans. I try to run any errands (like grocery shopping or Target runs) during the weekends so I have time to write and hit the beach with my bike before the sun goes down.
Sometimes I make plans with my friends and I go to the movies or get dinner with them.
Some weeks are busier than others; overall, I like to keep things pretty chill during the week and make more intricate plans during the weekend! I’m a pretty introverted person and spend most of my time in my room (as seen below).
