I GOT A NEW JOB | Study Vlog & Matcha
Welcome to my first vlog back at design school for the new semester as a Product Design student. A lot has happened recently, and I've got so much work ahead of me! I got a new job, studio classes, and now on the hunt for fall internships, it's going to be a busy semester but I will be ok as long as I have matcha.
This vlog is a bit different from my usual ones, but I hope you'll enjoy seeing the little chaos in my life. And I got my first ever free product for the channel! Thanks for watching my videos.

I will show you my thought process, and actually go out and talk to people. H...

      Don’t worry, I think Japan is quite friendly for solo travelers. We can always slow down and rest. And if you ever feel lonely, that’s totally ok. I think traveling alone is a great way to learn about ourselves. Just make sure you eat good haha. Good food cancel out bad mood.

      Hi, I would still recommend finding a place to live near south campus / Old Pasadena in general, because that's where the school bus stops to pick up students. You need access to grocery stores and maybe print out posters in Old Pasadena sometimes. In terms of grad spring program, I am not familiar with it. It might be easier to email the school or let me know if you have anything specific I could answer.

    Hey Francis, as an editor myself who's also introvert, I love watching your solo vlogs in Japan. I too, have been traveling sometimes to Japan alone but definitely not lonely. And it is the best feeling there is! I love your editing as well, the color grading and the cinematic touches is really nice! I hope you do get to travel again in Japan as there are still a lot of countryside places that you haven't been that is so worth visiting.
