  • Some folks wonder how or even why I'm up so early, especially since most Animal Crossing videos on my channel are recorded at around 5AM. Well, here's why. Enjoy!

    My son wakes up at 4am because his bus comes very early. He loves it because the house it quiet and he has that time to do what he wants in peace ie watch his show or something and take the dog out, without rushing. I wake up closer to 6am to listen for him to get on the bus and get my day started. I came even sleep past 630 or 7am even when I’m off a whole week. I prefer getting things done early because the rest of the day isn’t stressed to finish things plus it’s such a peaceful time of day.

    I completely agree with you! I've been a morning person for so many years now and rarely sleep past 7 am and definitely no later than 9 am. Even if I have the day off, I'm up early. It's a great feeling since you get so much more of your day.

    Being up at 5 am, the world is at a slower pace, and I listen to the 5 am music in Animal Crossing. The first time I heard it was on my first island, when I stayed up until 5 am to get my finished house upgrade, and when I heard the 5 am music for the first time was amazing. It's beautiful

  • @towakun6678
    @towakun6678 2 роки тому

    This is pretty relatable! When I was still in school I had to get up at 3:30 every morning. Partially because I had trouble remembering stuff I didn't care about so I had to study a lot more hours every day than most other students (my grades still sucked though lol) but also because it gave me an opportunity to draw and play video games in secret since back in the day my parents would very strictly control my screen time). Now that I'm self-employed I don't get up that early anymore because it's difficult for me to go to bed before 10-11pm. The earliest I can get out of bed nowadays is 6 am (only during summer that is lol). I can also relate to being more productive in the morning, there's just something about that morning quietness that makes it easier to focus on pretty much anything.

    When I worked 1st shift i would wake up at 5:30 and loved it, worked 7 am to 3 pm. Then I got switched to 2nd shift and I have been miserable ever since. I get home so late that I can't continue waking up early and doing things in the Morning and I miss it.

      @@annoyedbyyourface me as a person, i was way more productive when I worked 1st shift. Working 2nd shift, i dont get home unril almosy 2 am and can not wake up 3 hours later to make sure i get everything done for the day. Sadly, that is just how it is and I can not change that at this moment. You are right, i should be taking advantage of the time i have. But i need to wind down after work, so that is me going to bed about 3 am, to get 8 hours of sleep, i would wake up at 11. 🤷‍♀️

    I wake up at 4:25am and have been for years. Back when I was in grade 9 I had a 40 minute bus ride to school (longer in the winter) so had to wake up fairly early. Then when I moved schools, even tho I lived across from it, school started at 8am and I wanted plenty of time to "wake" myself up. Pretty much stuck ever since.
    Also I love going for 4:30am walks. I'm almost always the only person out walking, only a few vehicles so it's super quiet.

    Wow I relate to this too much. Im currently a senior in high school, but during junior year I started waking up at 5am (around when Pokemon SWSH came out) and I honestly did this naturally. But I realized I had more time to play my switch and I would spend that extra hour filling out my pokedex. To this day I wake up between 4-6 naturally as I cant fall back asleep, but I just like having extra time in the morning. I’ll get hw done, ill listen to music, i’ll play AC, i’ll watch youtube and each breakfast. I definitely like those early morning hours

    Loved the video as always! I’ve always been an early person but during difficult economic times am now the opposite. Took a while to train myself not to wake at 5:30 and even though I work until 11:30 pm, I still wake early. I’m using my after work time as a quiet time but yes I do sometimes miss my mornings! Love your island; the way you arrange the neighborhood is quite lovely!

    I never worked at best buy, but have worked in target and local grocery stores. Changing tags for that week's sales was common in both. I mainly got the products out and displays set, but it's pretty much the same.

  • @GnomePaperCo
    @GnomePaperCo 3 роки тому

    I remember doing ad sets when I worked at best buy too, or helping with them. Except ours was Fridays because the flyer ended Thursday nights. I always had the opening shift and I always had to be there around 7am. The difference is that I am not a morning person, but I was so efficient that I kept being the one scheduled for it. Not complaining at all, because I got in got work done and had the rest of the day to myself. Personally, I loved doing the overnight stuff, even if it was erie that the store was so quiet.

  • @annoyedbyyourface
    @annoyedbyyourface 3 роки тому

    Maybe it's because I've always lived in big cities but, for me, there's no such thing as an unproductive time of the day. Anything I like to do can be done at any hour lol.
    I personally like being awake between 2am-8pm because that's my natural clock but I've worked super early (5am-3pm) and "normal" 9-5 shifts.

  • @annoyedbyyourface
    @annoyedbyyourface 3 роки тому

    Also, it's not just a Best Buy thing. It's like that at every retail place with signs. I know at Target, the signage team comes in every night, not just on Sundays. And at H&M, signage is done by the store designer (alone or with a team, depending on the store size) each season.

    Really enjoying the podcast style videos! I have a suggestion, you’re welcome to consider it or not 😊. It would be great to have just a tiny bit of commentary on the gameplay as well, like maybe in the beginning, you could say something like « today we’re working on the Southern Hemisphere island. We’re going to continue moving houses into the neighborhood section and maybe add some benches and do a little landscaping. While we do that, I wanted to talk about *insert podcast subject* ». Or maybe add a little comment here and there on what’s happening during the gameplay (if something notable happens), although I understand this could make you lose your train of thoughts.
    Love the videos either way, it’s only a suggestion!
