A girl who felt lost in her mid-thirties 🤷🏻♀️
My very normal day *with a bit of my small business update*
Hello friends!
I finally received the 2nd prototype of my night cream! It took over 5 weeks since the first one 🥹
Mayo also had his first trial at doggy daycare-who knew finding a daycare would be so challenging? He’ll need more trial days before going for a full day!
Lately, I feel like my life is getting more vibrant, and I’m doing so much more. I’m really trying to avoid staying home all the time by meeting new people, trying new things, and just embracing change. It feels great. Sometimes, change is GOOD!
Thank you for watching, and I hope you have a lovely day 🫶🏼

I think the Sterling Ink Common Planner N1 COMPACT Vertical fits the TN cover perfectly. The other one I think might be too thick for the TN cover..
love the video
Thank you ☺️
💖💖💖
💖💖💖
Sorry, too, winey
Oopsy haha
@@SoooyunparkI actually appreciated hearing your “whine” - it made me happy to know that I am not the only one who has too many notebooks and doesn’t know what to do 😜. I feel an emotional attachment to all of them. “Whhhhyyyy…..” 😢😁
Trust me, you are not alone.
Hahahaha love this planner community 🫶🏼
So many of us have the same obsession. I just bought a moleskin expanded and I love it, but I haven't used it yet nor do I know what I'm going to use it for...but I HAD to have it! I hope you find the right planner that will fit your cover(s) perfectly. Great video, TFS!
Haha so glad to know its just not me. Those thick notebooks are just too good! Hope we use all our notebooks! Thanks for your kind comment 🙏🏼
I don’t like overhang but my chic sparrow narrow cover has TONS of room and no overhangs.
I would love to get another cover from Chic Sparrow but at the moment I just can't afford another cover 😭 I probably could if I sell all my new notebooks that I dont even use haha
I do exactly the same. Soooo many notebooks and planners, sooo hard to pick just one. I’m interested in the eternal leather hoods cover you have. I’m in Australia.
It’s impossible to pick just one, right?! 😂 What’s your Instagram or email so I can contact you? Or feel free to DM me on Instagram @soooyunpark, or email me at soyun@badform.club 🎀
A tip if you don’t like overhang is to add some crochet lace onto the top insert.. I add it to the plastic zip folder to help hide the plastic but it also looks pretty peaking out of the TN and hides that the book has that slight overhang:) as I don’t like it myself 😊
That is a great tip! I also hate seeing plastic zip folder looking so plastic too.. Thanks for sharing your tip, I might actually try it out! 😁
Maybe someone can tell us why we hoard chunky notebooks... ahha...
Chunky notebooks make my heart beats..... ahaha 🤣
Here watching Soy stressing over her planners 🍿 lol makes me grab my digital e-notebook supernote and gives it a hug
Ahahaha surprise, I also do the digital note but its not the sameeeeee haha I love love pen & paper experience 🥹
I really love luxrul bags. The fabric is very good. The golden embellishments add a touch of beauty. When I went to the church, I received some praise.
Amen 🙏🏼
Congratssssss! Love the xontent! ❤
Hehehehe Thank youuuuu 🙏🏼
Does the mini extension rod fit the Action 5 with no additional hardware? I am on the fence between the standard combo and mini extension rod (like you have here) or the adventure combo. I think I am going to get exactly what you got. Do you like it?
Hello 🙋🏻♀️ I just checked, and the camera fits perfectly on the mini extension rod without the case or cage-no other accessories needed. I’ve been using it every day for the last 4 days, and I’m absolutely loving it! I don’t have much experience with other action cameras, but compared to my GoPro10, this one is so much better, especially in low light 💡 and battery life is like SO good.
@@Soooyunparkexcellent! I was wondering if it would fit without that cage thing, just by itself. That’s good info, thank you!
@@Soooyunpark good info! I’m gonna get the same combo you got. So are you still loving the camera? I hope you make more videos with it!
You look so happy! This is a really fun camera!
I feel like I’m always in 100% excitement mode 😂 Really been enjoying the camera!!
Great video
Awww thank you 🙏🏼
Hello. I FROM BRAZIL AND LIKE YOUR CHANNEL. YOU HAVE BEUATIFUL VOICE
Hello!! And omg haha thanks for liking my voice because I hate my voice so much!! hahahaha 🩵
@@Soooyunpark where are y from
I'm from South Korea 🇰🇷
Congratulations! I’m looking for a small action camera, not for action, but for mall walking tours, city walks and walks at night in the city lights. I was about to buy the ace pro but then this action 5 dropped. Do you think the action 5 is a good option for evening and night walking videos? And mall walking? And does the action 5 have jittery effect in low light with artificial lights? Also I want that tiny DJI drone!
Thank you 🤩! I haven't used it much yet, but in my honest opinion, I don't think it's great in low light. Until action cams get larger sensors, low-light filming with them will always be a bit of a struggle I think haha. Even their night-time mode(?) still isn't great in my opinion 🥹. I took some test footages on rainy day (during the day) and the quality was... very sad haha. I’ve heard the Osmo Pocket 3 is much better though - image quality, low-light performance, etc...! If you are thinking getting Neo (tiny drone!) I don't think you will regret!! haha I am definitely getting one when I have extra $$$$$$$ hehehehe SO GOOD!
Came here for the DJI Oslo Action 5 but wanted to Congrats you on the 1K subs 🥳 I just hit 1K Subscribers myself and I know its not an easy milestone to achieve so well done!!! Keep it going! You have a new sub 😉
Thank youuuu! Finally 1k subscribers! hehe. I will keep buying things so I have contents to make hahaha! Have a lovely day 🎀
congratz
Thank youuuu 😁
congrats on such a beautiful lure you make fantastic
Thank you 🙏🏼
Love it! I can relate to everything you said! 😂
Bahahahah I love love love notebooks!! I am going to use only one book next year but I already bought 5..... DUH! hahahaha
the accent makes so much sense now
I do have very strong Konglish (korean + english) with a bit of NZ accent I guess.... 🤣
This popped up on my page, very open of you to share this journey, I don't think I could have when I changed! Rooting for you, finding the right balance is hard but it's great you're going down the path, good luck 💪
Thanks for your cheerful comment! Trying new things already changed my life so much so I will keep going! hehe thank you 🙏🏼

I am OLDER than you at 34, quit my job, and have been trying to make money as a freelance illustrator. But money is running out! So I am in a similar position of going to work a part time job at a tea shop (if they hire me....) AND I'm going back to school for art. So always know - there's someone else behind you (and older!) lol. But I think youtube is a great avenue for growing a business and for personal growth, I am not monetized but it's still been worth it :)
Woah! We're in the same boat, and I don’t think it’s bad at all! We’re both trying new things to get where we want to be in the end. Going back to school sounds scary, but it’s such a great step forward. UA-cam has been so much fun for me too (not monetized yet either), but I truly believe all the hard work will pay off someday! Haha. We’ve got this! I think just by trying something new, we've already grown so much. We just need to keep going! I subscribed to your channel and wish you the best of luck on your new journey! 🎀
@@Soooyunpark You're more optimistic than me these days! it feels like a lot of work with little results! But I'll keep trying :) Thanks for replying (and subscribing - I've done the same)
Almost 1K!!!
Almost!!! Soooooooooo excited haha
Good video!
Aw thank you 🙈
Decent organic growth on Instagram is dead. It’s pay to play now. You’ll either need to pay for boosting/ads or hire/subscribe to one of the many marketing services that work to optimize your posting/comment schedule to optimize for the algorithm. TikTok and UA-cam are still the best for organic growth, though not as good as they have been in the past. Instagram is more like what a “website” used to be. You need it for when people search for you, contact you, or networking. But in of itself it isn’t going to be what “makes you popular” or relevant.
keep it up :D
Thank youuuuuuuu 🙏🏼
Awesome gear! How did you get to editing? XD I need to learn how to do that
Ah, editing 😮💨 I already have adobe suite so I just went with Premiere pro and watched tones of youtube tutorial videos haha. I don't do much of 'editing' in terms of colour correcting or special effects, what I do most is 'cut' so it wasnt hard at all to learn hehe.
I think there is a TN weekly insert available. Probably more affordable than Sterling Ink.
Yes, but it also has way fewer pages than Sterling Ink :/ Plus, I’m excited to go back to Tomoe River paper for next year! Hehe. But the TN weekly insert is definitely a great choice too, no doubt! 🐶
"I was on the hobonichi website, saying I'm gonna buy a hobonichi that I won't use! But no Soy, you're so broke! No hobonichi for you!" 😂😂😂 Made my day!
I have to keep telling myself that I'm broke otherwise I will definitely buy things...... a lot of things 😂😂😂😂😂
korean fried chicken is the best
For sureeeeeeeeeee
I'm also one that has to have all into one planner! It's hard to keep up with more planners for me.
Yessss I wish my brain could take multiple planners tho! Then I could just get all planners I like 😂😂😂
@@Soooyunpark I feel that deep in my soul!!
What breed is Mayo?
He is a toy poodle. About to be 8 yo! :)
Super cozy looking sofa and space you have there!
It's so comfy 🥹🩵
out with the haters, you do you !
Great advice! 😈
Somehow this was so cute! ❤ You're so energetic, it made me smile! Your excitement and love for things are contagious!
Awwww, you’re so kind!! This totally brightened my day! 😊 I always feel like I have too much energy and try to tone it down, but maybe it’s not such a bad thing after all! Hehe. I’m so happy my energy made someone smile! And again, thanks for your kindness!!! 😈
Can you share what your small daily journal is called? I'm trying to get into journalling and it looks like the perfect size but I can't find it. Thank you!
It is called moleskine daily pocket! :) and the cover is from chic sparrow 🐶
Have you considered e-ink Notebooks? Ratta Supernote Nomad and BOOX go 10 are great…or iPad mini Goodnotes app is wonderful
Love this! im doing the N1 horizontal as well for my TN covers. Im bummed she didnt bring the forest green for the N1 so i dont know which color is the "lesser evil" the blue or tweed. Ugh!
Yessss, tahe colour choices are so tough! I really wanted that burgundy, but unfortunately, she doesn’t offer it for the N1V. Such a bummer! And also, here I am, trying to decide between gold edge or white… hahaha. I’m not complaining though! I just love making all these planner decisions 🥹. It’s so fun, and I’m pretty sure I’ll end up with like 5 planners in the end-haha!
PPS: creating a successful skincare/beauty brand is extremely difficult. You will be competing with giants who have endless amounts of marketing budget. I am not saying don’t do it - but if you are going to go down that path then having a successful UA-cam channel will really help you. So give yourself until the end of this year to build a presance on UA-cam and also to decide your neiche on UA-cam….. before you invest too much on the actual products.
Thanks for the advice. I will keep it in mind 👍🏼
Ps: i have an amazon agency. I have been helping brands sell on amazon and other platforms for years. I can give you an hour of free consultancy if you need. But before that stage you need to figure out what you want to do and commit.
Noted! Thanks for the advice :)
lol. You clearly have ‘white people’ issues. Please listen to your own video and count the number of times you said ‘i want’ … and compare that to the number of times you said ‘I need’. That will tell you everything you ‘need’ to know.
Vlogs are cool!
Thank youuuuuuuu 🩵
Good luck Soy! I'm also in a similar situation - 35 and thinking a lot about the future and what kind of impact I hope to have on the world, and thinking about trying new things including making a UA-cam channel as well. You mentioned at the beginning how it was a challenge to finish the video - I'm struggling to make my first video right now. How did you get over the hurdles and find a way to finish? I keep getting stuck and changing what I want to say and can't complete the edit lol !! Admire your work ethic and bravery posting about your journey!
I might not be the best person to give video advice, but here's what I did... I just kept talking! 😂 In the end, I said everything I wanted to say and then edited out a lot. I cut out stories that weren’t super relevant since I’m not the best storyteller. I’ve noticed that people sometimes connect more with you when your story and video aren’t perfect, you know what I mean? Perfectly scripted and filmed videos can sometimes lack that authentic feel. So, I think we all need to stop overthinking our videos and just go for it! Good luck with this new chapter in your life! I’m sure you’ll do great-we’ve got this! 👍🏼
Your decision to leave a stable 9-5 job and dive into the world of entrepreneurship is incredibly courageous. Balancing a part-time job at a cafe while building your skincare brand shows your commitment and resilience. I really appreciate your honest reflection on the challenges you’re facing, from managing finances to personal growth. It’s inspiring to see you handle these hurdles with such determination and positivity. Thank you for sharing your journey with us; it’s motivating to see your progress and hear the lessons you’ve learnt along the way. Wishing you continued success as you move forward with your skincare brand.
Can't wait to show my final products!! So slow in development but I am sure it will be worth of wait.. :) Thank you for your motivative comment, as always. Thank you and hope you are having a lovely day!! :)
Oh wow. I just had a dream last night about just getting a job as a barista at a cafe.
Ooooo you should try oneday! haha
