[@emmanuelnsanyui3688]

The beginning was a whole movie.....I woke up like this kind of vibe....very interesting watch. Your editing game is higher level. Well done

[@mutomboinprogress]

Ahead ahead! It will only get better from here. Thanks, Emma.

[@VictorEboa]

Nice vlog, wow turning on that light really need some skills and athleticism, welcome to the world of hard core engineering, requires too much study & time in the campus. from your videos i can see you're dedicated to complete the program, good luck and i'm looking forward to see you in the graduation robe soon, big thumbs up

[@mutomboinprogress]

Hahahah thanks a lot, Victor for these encouraging words. It really is very demanding, but we draw strength from God Almighty.

[@JourneywithJuditha]

For some reason I couldn't focus on the bomb editing skills today. The excess study in this vlog took my mind to a vlog titled graduation day/MSc in Engineering. Congrats in advance sassy.wish you all the best

[@mutomboinprogress]

Amen to this, Judi. Thank you so much. Amen

[@tchassakamga]

Ya editing nor? Growing in leaps and bounds. Chai. I'm in awe.

[@AsyDarlyn]

Mehnnnn your edits!!🙌🏾🙌🏾 I really want to do my masters though I don’t think I can do anything engineering for now🙈😅😅 I’d probably do MBA

[@mutomboinprogress]

Wow, an MBA would definitely be perfect for you! I see it already!!!

[@mutomboinprogress]

Girl, I didn't even study for more than 2 hours at a time in this vlog

[@mutomboinprogress]

Hahahaha I'm glad you picked up a few things. Thanks for stopping by darl.

[@sammybright8999]

Wow girl So interesting I have to make time to watch every video on your blog

[@mutomboinprogress]

Hahaha take your time, Sam

[@bedoungtisha2751]

That burger made me crave for some.😢😢😢. By the way, when you pulled the whole engineer light scheme thing I thought I was about to see you doing some dangerous circuting just for you to go and jump. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@mutomboinprogress]

Hahahahaha. That whole jumping was even because somebody cut the rope.

[@cynthiaatanga4135]

Loving your videos. That light switch tho😂

[@mutomboinprogress]

Thanks baby girl!!!

[@simplyjoecy]

Another cool watch 👌🏽. Wishing you all the best with your studies, Mutombo.

[@jovenchik2521]

This intro song chi is everything is just giving 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@mutomboinprogress]

Ayyyeeeee I had to rewatch to remember what music it was. Thanks a million, Joviiii!!

[@jovenchik2521]

I feel exhausted by watching you switch the lights on 😂🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@mutomboinprogress]

Hahahahha it's a chore. At this point, we just leave it on. No switching off because that jumping every day is something else.

[@randommatim]

First time on your channel, the scam in the beginning FINISHED me! Absolutely loved the vlog!

[@mutomboinprogress]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m glad you enjoyed it, Atiim. Stay well, girl 💛💛.

[@chelsey8737]

I came for background noise and study motivation but I stayed for that hysterical light switch scene. So freaking funny

[@mutomboinprogress]

Hahahahahaha thanks for sticking around, Chels. There’s always something hilarious going on in these parts of the internet 😂😂

[@momandjas]

What kinda light turning technique if that 😂😂

[@mutomboinprogress]

Sis... the rope cut... 😂😂😂

[@TheReinery1111]

Please can you make more school vlogs? 😭😭😭 This video inspired me so much, I'm a really lazy student with a post grad project to finish. 🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆 ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ Love your channel ♥️♥️

[@mutomboinprogress]

honestly I’m with you in that one, I also have my thesis due in 1 month and I’m not even halfway through. I have never struggled with laziness and motivation the way I have this year 2020 but I’ll definitely film more of these. Filming even motivates me to work too. That said, let’s get to work! Hahaha I wish you all the best with this project!

[@AsyDarlyn]

This was really enjoyable. Can you do a video with your classmates talking about how the program is there, schooling, the cost and so on.

[@mutomboinprogress]

That's actually a really great idea. So that we get many different perspectives and not just mine. Thanks Asy!

[@Ejeomah]

The light part was so funny 😂 not everyone can do that oh 🙌🏽🤍🤍🤍

[@mutomboinprogress]

😂😂😂😂

[@mutomboinprogress]

Thanks Sam boo. Thank you so much. It is not easy but we keep pushing!

[@Wisdom_Vault-y4r]

I must say this: your editing is the bomb💥💥💥. I am a new youtuber in Germany studying process engineering and my sister referred me to your channel so I could get one ot two editing tips. Weldone girl👌👌

[@mutomboinprogress]

Ahhh wow! Pls thank your sis for me. Thank you too. Hopefully, you will start dropping content real soon! Thanks a lot. I appreciate this. xx

[@mutomboinprogress]

Just checked your channel out! Currently watching the video you posted a few hours ago. Please note that when people click on your home page, it says 'This channel doesn't have any content'. I think you should fix that and add your Upload playlist to your homepage because I didn't see any videos at first and had to navigate further to 'Videos' before seeing your content. Some others may not have that patience. All the best! xx

[@Buness_Sero]

First off. Thank you for being real. I loved the video. You made me feel like I was with you throughout your day. The way you enjoyed the bugger you ate for lunch in the video, should give you a picture of how well I enjoyed this video. Your editing and how you tell out the video makes it great. First video I watched and it has caused me to join the notification GANG. Keep creating such great the content. What makes it most exciting for me is that I am also a youtube from Cameroon. Glad to meet you 😉😊

[@mutomboinprogress]

omg, thank you so so so much, Phil! Yes, I know I represent the mother land so anything I do, I would like to do it well. Thank you once again and welcome to this space!!!

wow such editing skills!!! damn new to your page and i must say it's on point..i wish i could put this much work into editing my videos 😂!

[@mutomboinprogress]

Thanks for stopping by, doll! Don't worry, just pick up one trick at a time and try to apply to your videos. Start with one thing, then build on that. Don't try to learn everything at once - I feel overwhelmed when I try to do that especially for something that requires your creative juices to flow. I have 2 editing videos you might want to check out. Take it easy and Happy Sunday! xx

[@NanuDanie]

@@mutomboinprogress ohwow i love you already thank you sooo much for the tip :) i will definitely check them out!!!

LOL!!!!!!!! The beginning when you admitted that you set up the entire intro. I'm dead!!!hahahah, LOVE your channel. Please keep pushing and releasing content now that we're all social distancing and have time to binge watch your videos.

[@MJL-kx9fp]

Honestly did not want this vlog to end. I enjoyed all of it!

[@mutomboinprogress]

Hahahahaha thank you so much. We all know morning routines are 75% setup but we love watching them. I will definitely try to push out more than 1 video a week now. Phew, it'll be hard though. But knowing that you actually want to watch makes it worth it.

[@mutomboinprogress]

@@MJL-kx9fp Funny enough, for some reason I try to keep my vlogs under 15 minutes. If I pushed 25 minutes per vlog, would that be okay? I think I'll try that and see if we like it.

[@sbonzama7013]

Hi, is that proposal presentantion you attended some where online by any chance. TIA.

[@mutomboinprogress]

Hi Sbo, I don't think it is online but I have been looking for some research guidance online as well and I found "Grad Coach" here on KZbin to be very helpful in terms of how to structure your dissertation and other technical research tools. I also find Andy Stapleton's channel useful but he talks more about the bigger picture in grad school, helpful habits to develop and such. I hope you can find some useful material on at least those 2 channels. I'm sure there are more out there but these are the two I can think of right now.

[@sbonzama7013]

@@mutomboinprogress Ok thanks, I did recently also found "grad coach" . The channel looks interesting and will check it out in detail. I will also check the one you suggested. I'm about to start my Masters in Civil Engineering so I am a bit anxious!
