So relatable! One thing about the makeup - you'll probably need to touch it up during your wedding day so try out wearing it for a day and doing small fixes. That way you can know what products to bring on the day and you won't need to bring the huge makeup organiser ☺

I used to (and still) get overwhelmed with cleaning and my mom would say “take your hand and put it on something. Now pick it up, and put it away. Now put your hand on another thing. And put it away.” Somehow that always helped me a lot.

Honestly, it feels SO GOOD to see a household that looks just NORMAL and messy and lived in! I feel like 99% of influencers make everything look perfect which puts so much pressure on the viewers and isn't realistic at all. I love that you're not doing that. Thanks! It made me feel better and I actually got some things done as well ❤ 😊😊😊

PS: this video almost works as ASMR/ambience 😊😅

[pixiemar]

The steam on your glasses when you had the noodles is so relatable!! That made me laugh, it happens to all us glasses-wearers! I really like watching normal day in the life videos, thank you for sharing 😊

Glad to see we're not the only people with random planters filled with dirt and no plants 😅😅

Hi, Uyen! I don't know if you'll ever see this comment (hopefully you will!) but I have ADHD and am autistic. What both of these things mean is that things like taking care of myself and cleaning are difficult on a systemic level for my brain. It's not really that I'm lazy, as I often want to do these things, I just struggle SEVERELY with starting and stopping tasks. I also have chronic exhaustion that's a huge problem for me, so even on good days I can really only do like 3-5 tasks. Most days I can only do 1, often 0. HOWEVER! I have found that carefully listening to my body and figuring out when it's easiest for me to start a task helps a lot. Everyone always claims you should clean at this time or that time....Nah. I'm most motivated when I first wake up (around 9-10am), 2-4pm, and around 12am - 1am sometimes. I find it easier to start tasks when I start with comically easy ones, such as literally just lifting up a single piece of trash and putting it in the garbage. That helps to turn the gears and gain motivation and momentum to do more. I can't say what will help you exactly as it's something you'll need to experiment with, but as an example for myself, these are the things that help me get motivated to clean and stay (somewhat) clean:
- Listen to specific music genres when cleaning
- Keep windows open
- Only clean on colder days / at night time/early in the morning if it's summer
- Have a reward for yourself (you can even do the reward first if that works for you)
- Try and stay present in your body and don't let your thoughts wander (romanticize/appreciate what you're doing)
- Alternatively, let your thoughts wander in case you feel bored
- I have a problem with my heart where I can't stand up for too long or else I pass out, so I clean a lot of things sitting down. You can sit down too if it makes it easier!
- Buy nice smelling candles/room sprays for free serotonin

Coming from a professional procrastinator, I’m impressed with the amount of things you managed to do! By the way I loved the mismatched socks (so relatable) and I really liked your makeup 🤍

[krmbrule]

Uyen! ❤ You have such IMPECCABLE PATIENCE when it comes to putting on makeup! I applaud you for your diligence in practicing! It looks Great!

When I was a contractor, I brought a printer with remote printing so when I brought something I would take a photo or screenshot off the receipt and then send to the printer to print. Then when tax month came round. Had a stack off receipts to claim in order off the year. It worked pretty great. Till my son started walking and then hid the prints around the house 😅

[msfracha]

Uyen's hair is getting longer and somehow she looks even cuter and more beautiful❤❤❤❤ our favorite bride to be is shining🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[comptodc]

😂 I feel guilty now watching Uyen clean while I sit in my messy house… ok, I will clean and watch too

[FayeSantiago-ie]

You could add an embroidered patch to the pants to cover the burn holes! then you can add a matching patch on the other side! :)

You made my day "I just cleaned it a week ago" aahahaha.We try to clean kitchen every day, because it gets messy within few hours, so we try to keep it regular. There are days when we skip it, especially if we cleaned it a lot during a day. The secret is to clean it in fly as we do things in kitchen or after using it (preferably before eating as well), so kitchen is in decent state most of the time.

5:40 Have a separate credit card for your business expenses, then it becomes easier to track what is for work, as opposed to personal expenses which you would put on another card.

uyen- “hopefully you’ll find a bit of inspiration to do these things as well”

Me- well…my Stardew farm does need some TLC.

Thanks for the inspiration, my farm is now spotless

[DoodahGurlie]

BTW, when you iron, use a pressing cloth. NEVER iron synthetic material without a pressing cloth. I tried doing that years ago right before a wedding where I was a maid of honor and scorched the dress I was supposed to wear for the wedding! Oops! Luckily, I have very resourceful female relatives whom helped me solve the problem before I had to walk down the aisle. Hahaha!

[FernBlackwood]

I had no clue that you're the same age as me. That actually makes you even MORE inspiring to me, personally. You really remind me that, "Yeah, I am a capable person!" Thanks for being such a lovely person on the internet, Uyen. 🌷

for your wedding, be sure to use a powder over your makeup that is for photography. if you dont, your face could look oily and shiny when you want it to look matte. I think MAC has a good photography setting powder, not sure.

I procrastinated on watching this video bc for some reason i thought i wouldnt like it. Well, i thought it was a DELIGHTFUL video!! And so relatable! Your makeup was beautiful, it really accentuated all your gorgeous features! 😊

[katharinae]

Your video is so relatable. Every day tasks and keeping organized is a hard practice to maintain, especially when we get really busy. But it feels so good and you get a high when you succeed in your accomplishments. Sometimes though procrastination is good for the mind. LOL
