A day in my life as a UI/UX designer in Singapore | Languages & Design 💙

[@LindieBotes]

Do you guys want to see more videos like this? 👀💕💙

[@jasminedubois6711]

Absolutely.

[@guadalupeaccareddu3239]

Yes! Also a video about how to learn words specific to your work field in the language your studying would be cool! You mention that you listen to podcast about desing in the languages you learn, can you recomend some?(maybe in korean or Japanese)

[@kallina1495]

Yes, I really appreciate your videos. 😊

[@AmbassadorSoriano]

They are fun and endearing. It is a good break from the hamster wheel of language improvement.

[@coconatsu9079]

Yes! I love vlogs :3

[@hayrogarciga924]

I consider umbrellas a magical amulet, if you bring one with you, it will not rain.

[@LindieBotes]

stop why is this so true HAHAH

[@pierreabbat6157]

Étant sorti sans parapluie, il m'eût plus plu qu'il plût plus tôt.

[@AmbassadorSoriano]

Can you do a video on how you do language exchanges? Do you have a preset topic with your partner, or do you have games you play? Or do you just show up and talk about whatever is on your mind? With a tutor, they always have something interesting or different to make it more challenging. But with my partners, most of the time we talk with nothing in particular, and sometimes I don't feel I get enough out of them. Thanks!

[@AmbassadorSoriano]

@Victória Régia Pires :) I think I would cry tears of sadness if I had to do that. I speak French and Spanish with my exchange partner. In general, we talk about what we have been doing each week, and how we love to confuse all our languages. On Mondays, it is, "I wanted to say ___ in Spanish, but I could only think of the French word." Then on Thursdays it's the opposite. "I wanted to say ___ in French, but I could only think of the Spanish word."

[@abnormia]

This kind of video is actually awesome! I'm an aspiring data analyst/scientist and I love seeing your day as a professional working in a different country! I'm hoping to work internationally or remotely (or both!) so this kind of video is inspiring ^^

[@theworldofalbana2478]

This video is special because I feel like I'm watching my future self. I'm studying to become a UX designer as well and am currently working on my 6th foreign language. 😍

[@malenalucero6473]

I'm a frontend programmer and I wish we had a UI/UX designer. We end up doing what we think could work, but most of the time I just feel like I'm programming components blindly... great video and what a beautiful place to live!

[@latterdaylotus2453]

Your video editing is so sleek and elegant, it really distracts from how meticulously done they must be. Great passage in Romans too!

[@LindieBotes]

Thank you for picking up on that! Oh yeah, Romans is one of my favorite books

[@SomedayKorean]

Loved the video! I always like seeing how other people's daily routines look different than mine. I wish I had my life together enough to make my bed every day haha. But I actually sit in bed sometimes while doing work on my laptop because I'm always freezing, and then I'd have to make my bed 2-3 times a day lol

[@cookiejar.mp3]

It is so motivating to watch you love your job and how you manage to work and learn languages! I hope someday after college I find a job I love that much!

[@LindieBotes]

Oh thank you Fran! I am sure you will! Just follow your passions 💙

[@GarnetsWeb]

I second Francis' comment! Whenever I go on language exchange websites, it's one or both of these problems: 1. The person mostly wants to chat (which happens to be like, 90% English), and that's fine for the beginning, but after 5-7 days, the conversation should be primarily about the target language. 2. The native speaker will give warranted critiques on pronunciation, but very poor tips on actually improving it. If this isn't out of your convenience, I'd love to see a "101" on language exchange

[@GarnetsWeb]

@@jazmine9570 Oh yes! Being a native speaker, we all absorbed language from those around us. Schooling refined our skills, but at the end of the day it was picked up naturally over time. So unless we're professionally taught, it's still difficult to explain something that we know naturally, especially muscle memory in our mouths. What I'm saying is, if you're going to go on a language exchange app and tell me I'm saying the word wrong, I want you to tell me what position your mouth is in when you say it as a native speaker. Don't tell me I'm wrong and leave me with that, I want to know how to correct it. If I hear someone say "fh" instead of "th," I don't want to tell them that's wrong without also telling them what position my mouth is in to correctly make the "th" sound. Hopefully that clears up what I meant! 😄

[@jnnschnll9008]

I'm also myopic and can hardly see anything without glasses. This made me feel much better about myself

[@reenbenkyou]

I paused the video to download Toucan. I love it already. Thank you!

[@Anna-xi8ve]

I'm feeling so relaxed during and after watching your videos ✨

[@berry1068]

Lindie, loved watching this! Getting to see a bit more of your daily routine and just how much passion you have for your work. Would absolutely love to see more videos like this. :)

[@egganbert]

Your life is very much one that I look up to :) I'm an English teacher in Seoul who studies Korean. Recently I took a course on Digital Marketing and was kind of introduced to online business, tech, biz, etc. via that, and I've been considering looking into UX/UI in case I might prefer that. I'm starting to learn Figma for the classes I teach to get my feet wet!

[@rudolfaerofare2683]

Fellow South African here who'll commence with studies in UX/UI design from next year. This video cannot have landed at a better time as I prepare myself to learn more about what I'm getting myself into. :-) I hope I can work abroad in the industry as well not long after I graduate! Thanks, Lindie, and God bless!

[@misyafnadiella9134]

Thank you so much, u inspired me a lot. First I learned Spanish and mandarin because of you and recently I am learning UI/UX design. I join my first bootcamp 😁

[@ZoeCayetano22]

you saying "handy dandy notebook" totally reminds me of blue's clues

[@claracunico]

Hello Lindie!! You are a huge inspiration for me, not only regarding language learning, but also because I'm a designer as well! I saw your video about your university portfolio, and was wondering if you could do another one, but this time showing your most recent work. I would love to see it!!

[@chantellets]

i've enjoyed your language videos for a while and it was great to be able to see how you go about your day! you are a huge inspiration to me, living abroad, being so independent and always learning something whether it's for work or language studies. i recently learnt a bit about ux/ui design which i enjoyed more than i thought i would. i would love to adopt a similar mindset to you when it comes to learning, and thank you for sharing what you do.

[@solh8844]

Awww awesome, I need to get a study space I can really sit and focus, thanks for telling us about that language translator it’s so cool the things they come out with !

[@nonnapapera3044]

Hi Lindie. I'm not (yet) into language learning (I'd like to improve my english and I'm not even doing that, sadly) and I'm not a fervid social user (I'm not so young anymore!) But I just wanted you to know that I stumbled upon your smile on youtube and your face makes me a little less miserable in hard days. You radiate kindness, I don't know how to put this in word (especially in english words!)... Thank you from italy (oh, sometimes your expressions remind me of la gioconda, did everyone already tell you that?). Have a great life, girl!

[@giga_puddin]

This vlog was so awesome! I bet people have already said this, but I was curious about your approach/thought process when making a design and if it's similar to the way you go about language learning! You're such an inspiration! Keep up the great work!

[@isabelecaroline998]

Lindie, what a nice video! I remember I talked to you on Instagram one day. I said that follow you inspired me so much. Furthermore, I'm not only learning another languages, but now I'm studying UI/UX design too. Thank you for present me the UX world. I'm so grateful for this. Hugs from Brazil. :)

[@eyramheymann966]

Your video really reminded me to find joy in what I do even when I have a lot of work. Thanks so much! 💜

[@RubyDuran]

Yay! Getting to see you in action with both your passions 💕

[@LindieBotes]

Thanks for watching Ruby! This video took way too long to make so I am glad you appreciate it hahaha

[@RubyDuran]

@@LindieBotes haha always! Yes, I bet it did! Definitely something we your viewers appreciate 😊

[@ilyanemihin6029]

Thanks for sharing. It's very motivating to structure a day more effective. You did in the day so much that someone would not have enough time to do it in a week) (and greetings from Russia)

[@terrell8987]

Loved the video, for someone who is learning UX design and is interested in languages this was perfect. 😍😍🥰

[@daisy_on_the_spot]

It was amazing, I like this format of videos. Actually, I realized that I wanna try me as a UI/UX designer, because I interested in this field of work. Thank you for this video, Lindie!

[@fivetimesyo]

Very admirable, Lindie. Thanks for seeing a good example. Keep up the good work!

[@kini79]

C'est appréciable de voir ton quotidien, merci !

[@carrielearningdesign2726]

Thank you so much! I

[@malakissami8199]

you know Lindie after watching this video i realized that I am wasting my time I really wanna be productive like you and I will be and I'm gonna start today,thanks for sharing and send you love from Morocco .

[@OpinionatedMatt]

One day I came across a "are ready to live in Singapore" ad... I took a moment to really think about it.

[@bluecandies]

omg this is literally the life I want to strive for, beautiful video Lindie 💜

[@Skuejfkdialqslzn]

I'm happy that you uploaded again, Lindie~ And, yeah, we would like to see more of this kind of content! ｡◕‿◕｡

[@MDobri-sy1ce]

I am going to try having audio books or videos run in different languages in the background when doing notes this year.

[@nofridaynightplans]

The video was really well made. It'd be nice to have a closer look at what you do at work exactly.

[@gelleladerbew2592]

your a genius, im so happy i found you!!!

[@vangogh8644]

This was really cute❤️ Thanks, Lindie!

[@janjanime8351]

Yes! I’d love to learn more about your field and living abroad. I wonder if ux/ui would be a path for myself to live abroad and do work that is aligned with my interests 😄 thanks for sharing!

[@relative_pitch_k]

Singapore에 사는 한국인입니다 :) 수술 후에 한국어로 말씀하시는 영상을 보고 깜짝 놀랐었는데 지금 보니 Singapore에 계시네요!! 반갑습니다!

[@annelongbridge4671]

As I am interested in UI/UX Design, I really enjoyed the video !

[@_sparrowhawk]

Smallest to do list, also I adore pretty much everything in this video :P

[@jasminedubois6711]

So fun to see this side of you.

[@arisarumvulgare4183]

Lindie, could you talk about UX/UI designer job in more depth? Like what software are you using, how did you built up your knowledge and any tips you might have for aspiring UX designers?

[@juciaralutz2182]

Thanks for your videos, you are always so inspiring! Whenever I feel down or not motivated, I come to your channel and it really helps me out

[@baojab2914]

I love your new content about being a designer. Hopefully you would do it more in the future 💕💙

[@thejunochannel5022]

Ahhhh. This video is so chill. Keep it up Lindie! 🤩

[@foreverlearningfrench]

Salut Lindie ! Your job is so cool!! I would love to get into designing.

[@shrouuuq]

Hello Lindie, If it’s possible we would like to watch a video how do you start to write in English and making videos in English, thanks for gorgeous videos 🙏🏻💛

[@asheres7718]

Your English/Japanese bible is so cool! I kinda wanna get one now.

[@jubiterr]

Loved your video, Singapour is on my travel list. If you get a chance, could you explain indepth in a future video how you find your job, the company you work in and being a foreign employee ? Thank you !

[@angienatalia8770]

Wow... how do you have time to do so much in a day? It's impressive, my days are so shot hehe

[@janissa.93]

I love your life, dear Lindie. Now you have a new suscriptor! :)

[@pierreabbat6157]

When you localize an app to test internationalization, what language do you use? I use Spanish, which is my second language by fluency, though it's my third language by acquisition. What language do you attend church in?

[@lyrasumuverta5955]

Yess that is soo interesting👍👍👍💜💜💜

[@TheFangGirl]

Loved this one 💗you do it all bo$$

[@alwaysyoutome19]

Enjoyed watching this video, Lindie! Have you thought about attending Adobe Max and registering in classes spoken in Japanese?

[@sienna6343]

Hello lindie! I am a Chinese learner and I was hoping you could make an update on Chinese

[@mcdsbae]

I love this video! Its really inspiring to see you working and also learning languages, you really do have a great work ethic! How did you end up as a UI/UX designer? im a graphic designer, but ive been thinking of getting into this field, and after seeing this video, im pretty motivated xD also, what do you do if you get design burnout or creative blocks? x

I felt that when you mispronounced "solver". Korean has completely messed up my spanish L's. Like if I say "es normal" it comes out as "es normaㄹ" 🤦‍♂️

Interesting! Thanks for sharing. :-) I didn't know we did the same job. I thought you were a full-time language learner, for some reason. lol.

[@alyslim5234]

omg you’re in singapore ❤️❤️❤️

[@ManassehBB]

Thank you for sharing your day! Yes, I would like to see more videos like this 👍🏽. Also, where did you get your Bible? I love to read one that would help me learn a language 🙂

[@gxrlarii]

Wow si que tienes muchísimas cosas que hacer en el día. ¿Cómo sobrellevas tantas responsabilidades? Yo me estresaría enseguida. Btw, me encanta lo mucho que te gusta tu trabajo y el empeño que le pones uwu

Hungarian, for some reason never has appealed to me to learn. I don’t think because it’s hard because I learn Russian and it’s very difficult! But I love it! However, Hungarian never caught my interest. I wouldn’t mind learning Finnish someday though. It sounds closer to a “true Uralic “ language than Hungarian. Well, because Hungarian has been influenced more because the were part of the Austrian- Hungarian Empire so, probably more German and Baltic languages have influenced it.

Interesante. Así es la vida, todo virtual,mucha soledad, mucha virtualidad para ocupar vacíos. Todo el tiempo del mundo con la computadora y el celular.

[@Malini108]

It seems like you can manage so many things at once! Do you ever get overwhelmed by how many layers of complexity you have going on in your everyday? Also, can you recommend online courses to get entry level skills for UX design? Thank you!!

[@changito4625]

Very inspirational video

Maybe it's a weird question and a bit offtopic, but I can't unsee it.... at 13:05 there is a bible page with passages in Japanese... and I can't figure ot one hiragana character... eg. in line 34, it's the first character...?

[@Zu-zu]

I think it's い aka "i" but the font is a little funky

[@agatawrze]

@@Zu-zu Thanks; that was my only guess, but it seemed to not match the words... but looking at it with fresh eye - that must be it. Somehow I forgot that いったい is a word :)

[@usernamebean]

Hi, Lindie. I also work in IT field as a UXUI Designer. I've been studying English for 1 years. There are many ways leaning English. Shadowing, Online Class, Memorizing words,, and than I decided to learning english to the way shadowing and I watched your youtube video while looking for in korean to experiment with whether it really works. The purpose of learning English is to communicate with foreigners, and I also want to have the experience of collaborating with foreigners as a designer. So Could I ask you how to study?

Why don’t you order some “makeup glasses”?! 🤓😎 Btw, luuuved this video! ❤️

Hi Lindie, got a question for you. As an IT professional keeping up with your IT career and study multiple languages at the same time, how do you do it? I work in IT security, but I'm also like to study ancient Greek and Latin, as well as Indonesian (my wife is indonesian, so I want to learn Indonesian), but I also want to further my career in IT security (learning new tech, getting additional certs, keeping up with IT security news), but feel like the languages distract me from studying IT security tech material and vice a versa. Any tips/advice? Thank you.

I am genuinely curious.. why Singapore? This career can be done anywhere in the world, I wonder what led you to Singapore as it doesn't seem you have any ties there
