The trifecta that is clean sheets, clean body, clean pajamas cannot be matched. Also solo dates are the best. Absolutely agree, I feel like the older I get the more comfortable I am being with myself.

[@scrivspo]

The best trifecta ever!!!

[@slowdownwithsamantha]

I am also a non confrontational gal and one time someone came into my apartment complex gym and they started playing music out loud even though I got there first. I politely asked if they could put headphones in and they were so nice about it. I was shocked that the world didn’t end after confrontation 😂

[@scrivspo]

Wow I love this for you!!!!! This guy is… not like that lol which SUCKSSSS

[@louohvraa]

girly with red cheeks here. Recently got complimented on my blush, to which I replied "Thanks, it's my skin". Ppl with even complexion do not get it. Loved the video as always, Harriet 💜

[@scrivspo]

Omg they rlly don’t get it!!! Glad we have each other

[@oohlookatthatdoggo]

@@scrivspoOnce someone was like "Oh, I love your freckles" and me and my urge to tell everyone everything was going to say "Actually they are acne scars!" then I was like....no, just say thanks.

[@JemimaRose]

yes to scrivspo's booktube era !!!

[@scrivspo]

I’m so excited 😭😭❤️❤️

[@itsme_biancag]

I feel like we all suffer at times from the "all-or-nothing guilt complex" so it was a great reminder hearing you say that even doing 5 minutes of something is better than putting it off altogether! I also really appreciate your masterful use of timers to be more disciplined and motivated to stay on task - def going to start doing that more! CANNOT WAIT FOR THE READING VIDEO!!! 📚

[@scrivspo]

Awww yay im glad this resonated with you. And I’m so happy you’re excited for the reading video!!!

[@AprilShowers560]

Well. This was just a lovely, feel good video. I loved every minute of it. I also unloaded the dishwasher, cuddled my kitties, did a load of washing and some meal prep for the day. Whilst watching it. No one else is up yet and I’ve had such a productive morning already. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@scrivspo]

Awwww this makes me so so happy. Also give ur kitty a big cuddle from me

[@bfenerli]

Totally agree with getting out there and enjoying your own company. I love taking myself out for a cute brunch date or just going to the park to read or listen to a podcast. Great advice! I loved this whole vid 😊

[@scrivspo]

Yayyy I love a solo brunch date!!!

[@rachaelgrosser]

It’s wild how much I can relate to someone who lives on the other side of the world lol. Your videos are just like catching up with a long time friend. 🤍🤍

[@scrivspo]

This makes me so so happy!!! Love u so much

[@jana222]

you reading on your balcony in your cute outfit with the headphones on is such a vibe ✨

[@scrivspo]

Literally my fave way to spend an afternoon

[@BibbyLou99]

I love your “getting my life together” videos, they really do inspire to keep going, get a couple more things done than I would have Struggling with study anxiety at the minute and this helped to get me to my desk and working ❤

[@scrivspo]

Be kind to yourself!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@babyblue5866]

Love this video so much, I love going out by myself I’m 20 and I feel like loads of people do it I’ve never felt the need to go out with other people though, I’ve always been kinda lonely and not had many friends so by the time I was 16 and my mum was less strict on me I started to go shopping alone go get food alone and do everything pretty much, and now at 20 I live alone travel to uni alone go to work alone and it feels so normal to me that when I do go out with a friend It’s like oh yeah your here too 😂 I get the most work done alone too so whenever I have assignments due ( like I do at the moment - 1 week of university left wish me luck 🍀) I stay at uni with my computer and my music in my air pods, either in the costa on campus or the study building and it’s so nice to see everyone also doing the same thing ! 🥰

[@scrivspo]

Good luck w the rest of uni!!!!!

[@babyblue5866]

[@ItsJustMeSamHere]

I definitely understand getting stuck in a rut after new year’s - it’s so disheartening! I really felt that way in February but I feel like I’m back on track this month!

[@scrivspo]

I’m so happy you feel on track!! The best!

[@lovinggossipgirl]

I love watching you do freelance work in your vlogs!

[@scrivspo]

Aw yay!! I’ll be sure to include more!

[@irs3892]

First time commenter, long time fan 😄 I always enjoy your videos, Harriet. They’re like a soft comfortable blanket when you need a ‘pick me up’. Also can totally relate to the hair wash cycle, I can barely go 3 days without washing my hair, let alone using dry shampoo about every day!

[@scrivspo]

This is the SWEETEST COMMENT EVER. Screenshotted it so I can read it when I’m sad. A comfortable blanket 😭😭😭 love you so much

[@sophiewhite16]

I love this video, I am literally playing it while I am working and it makes me so calm and got me in a great mood! Thank you girlie

[@scrivspo]

This means the world!!! 🩷🩷

[@theresacantu2735]

I’ve been in recovery from my ED for two years now and I completely forgot that one of my initial goals was to be able to go out to lunch or even just coffee by myself, just me and my sketchbook. I’m so glad you reminded me, I can’t wait to bring it up with my counselor 😊 Great advice!!

[@scrivspo]

omg i am so proud of you!!! and solo dates are the best, i hope you end up taking yourself out on a fun sketching date bc you deserve it 🥰

[@theresacantu2735]

@@scrivspo oh my goodness, thank you so much 🥹 I’m determined now!

[@lunawarren6913]

love this video as always!! and i personally would loveee a day in the life of an editor vid like i have no idea how video editing works but it’s so interesting to me!

[@scrivspo]

Oooo ok I might just have to do one then!!

[@torinatashaann]

I really relate about the blush thing the main reason why I wear make up is to hide my redness but I’ve realised blush is so cute Excited to see your book video!!

[@scrivspo]

Love that for you!!!

[@erinmctague7188]

I have thick wavy/curly hair so I only wash my hair once/twice a week I couldn’t imagine washing my hair more to have to style it after. I’ve been in a slump as well and needed this motivation. I used to take my dog on walks just the two of us before she passed away and now I take my moms dog on walks when I nice out💙

[@scrivspo]

Awww I love that you walk your mums dog. I’m also sorry for your loss, losing a pet is so unbelievably difficult 😭❤️

[@thelizzleking]

Thank you for sharing the productivity! Really needed that boost in motivation and looking forward to your reading video 📙✨

[@scrivspo]

Yayyyy ❤️❤️❤️

[@maxitaxitaximaxi]

Perfect timing! I also told myself to do a checkin on my goals etc tomorrow :) Last week was a lazy one, but I know it‘s okay! ❤

[@scrivspo]

Absolutely!! Lazy weeks are the best weeks imo

[@elorose17]

washing the sheets is the bane of my life, u go girl

[@scrivspo]

Folding laundry is the bane of mine.. also putting clean sheets on the bed lol

[@jem8292]

Loved this video and the reminder to go do things on your own! It’s something I really enjoy but haven’t done as much lately, will take your advice to heart!

[@scrivspo]

Yayyy enjoy a solo date, you deserve it ❤️❤️

I’m so excited to make book content!!! It makes me so happy that you’re keen too 🥰🥰🥰

[@WonderlandAlicexo]

I love these videos, yours are my favourite ones to watch! Can I ask where your rug is from? The one in the living room, I love it!

[@scrivspo]

It’s from Kmart!! It’s their arch rug in extra large ❤️❤️❤️

[@sooniesoonie]

I have rosy cheeks also but I use Blush to even it out and also to hid if I ever get embarrassed 😂. If I ever see a girl out having a glass of wine alone I only ever feel envy. Seeing someone treating themselves how they should be treated ❤

[@scrivspo]

Aw I couldn’t agree more ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@1.4_Peachy]

I'm also a Video editor! Would love to see a video about your tips and tricks. Maybe also how to start youtube? You're one of my inspos 🥺

[@scrivspo]

I have made a few KZbin tips videos in the past!! I hope they help u ❤️

[@Seolhwaneul]

I also do quite a lot of editing and just upgraded my laptop last year from having a slow Macbook Air and it has made me even more productive than ever !it's insane how much it's changed the game work-wise LOL Best investment ever ngl 😅

[@scrivspo]

Omg couldn’t agree more!!!!

[@alangiles776]

Hi Harriet 🙂 🔥🫒 You always seem to get things done in your videos. I find that it's easier to feel productive at the beginning of the week. I hope the cat sitting is going well. 📖🍷You make the best vlogs.

[@scrivspo]

Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I clicked on this so so fast! 🤍

[@LaurieRobyn]

How did you get into the freelance video editing/how did you find clients? It's something I'd be really interested in but not sure how to get started! X

I’ll answer this is an upcoming video!! But feel free to DM me on Insta if you want advice xxx

serious question: how do you keep your work space clean? i clean up my desk and within 1 hour it's all clutter :(

[@scrivspo]

lol SAMEEEEEE

[@scrivspo]

I have to do a clean every morning to avoid clutter

[@heyitsgabs21]

its crazy to me that reading suddenly became a trendy hobby. i guess that means we are all sick of short tv seasons.

[@scrivspo]

I love that everyone’s reading, it actually makes me so happy

[@heyitsgabs21]

@@scrivspo its so funny on the booktube side because everyones upset at lifestyle creators for including book and reading content as if there wasnt a huge issue a few years back that bookstores were stuggling to stay open.

[@scrivspo]

@@heyitsgabs21 ohhh that’s so silly, I don’t believe in gatekeeping lol

[@heyitsgabs21]

i can understand the commercial/creator side of it because when youtube originally became profitable it was nowhere near the same on that niche. theres been so much negative discourse the last few years over other creators shifting niches and instanly getting opportunities than the people who built it didnt.@@scrivspo

[@Lolokoko22]

Can’t wait for your first book video! :) Been following along on your instagram & goodreads and so excited for you. Love it when one of my favorite youtubers & new favorite hobby meet ☺️🤩
