[@averygaming8707]

[@shykiki]

[@alexaeckhart5250]

I want get a switch & animal crossing soooo bad!!!! :,(

[@krystindraper]

I’m gonna add you! My bf and I are sharing a character called “Ant” lol

[@kalisue6573]

I love “boring” vlogs. I can’t be the only one lol I like watching someone just hang out and talk. So don’t worry if it’s repetitive.

[@TheDmcran]

REALLY appreciate you taking the self quarantining seriously!!!

[@RectoidableM]

trying to find the balance between animal crossing and online classes is a STRUGGLE let me tell ya. It's so addicting!

[@olbird1822]

Brooke, it's okay to feel demotivated and even bored for a while.. this break from normality has been thrust on us all so it's a bit discombobulating (excellent word!). It could be easy to slip back into student mode whilst back in the family home but as you are a self-employed woman hopefully your mojo will kick in and you'll start to feel the motivation to plan and work on your business projects soon enough. Try not to let your local weather put you off going for a brisk walk or a walk with your dog....you won't shrink if it rains... and chilly weather can be very refreshing 😂 In the meantime, are there any projects in the house you can crack on with as a family? (and vlog) or can you cook for the family? Just trying to distract you from online shopping 🤔😂

[@AlexaPaige]

i’m so here for the tie dye trend 🤩 dnt txt would look ADORABLE tie dyed!!!

[@brianalynn9494]

Hi Brooke! I don’t comment too often on your vlogs but you mentioned how the vlogs may seem repetitive but as a viewer being on lockdown in my town watching your vlogs helps me feel less alone as an only child and ~social distancing~ in a house just with parents who prior was a college senior living with 4 of my best friends! Even when you vlog outside in your town it’s showing another part of the country helps make it seem less separated during these times. Loved the vlog by the way💓

[@emilyrhodes234]

thank you for actually doing what we’re supposed to & social distancing!! A lot of people aren’t & it’s good to see someone taking it seriously! Hope you & your family stay safe!

[@leahlotti_999]

Every morning I walk 5 miles. I been listening to podcasts, yours too of course, and reading and cleaning. I'm not going to lie I'm going stir CRAZY!

[@MakeupBySavannahXO]

Brooke you are too hard on yourself, you could be vlogging watching paint dry and I would still watch it and be happy about it!!! I’ll always love u and your content

[@ciarapalermo8499]

thank you for taking social distances so seriously! currently trying to find balance between tiktok dances and school work! 🤪 definitely lacking motivation but have been doing lots of cooking and cleaning to keep myself busy!

[@admirbarucija2018]

I’m so excited to watch after my online class, I hope you have the best day Brooke!!! 💜 I think everyone except me has animal crossing and I want to play it 😂

[@allisonsouter9589]

Your unmotivated spiel is SO relatable... I still have school work and I’m thinking ... what’s the point ? It’s such a weird time and nobody knows how to feel.

[@zoepicard4235]

I’m really happy that you’re with your family during this time in which can be incredibly lonely. I’m grateful for your content, keep up the great vlogs! Hope all is well, stay healthy!

[@stephaniep6858]

I love these vlogs, Its somewhat comforting to know that I’m not the only one feeling unmotivated during this whole quarantined week. Even though I’m teaching remotely I think with just sitting at home in front of a computer for the majority of the day is making me go insane so these are great

[@Grace_Davin]

wait Brooke I actually really loved this vlog. it was so casual and honestly showed a true reality of the situation! and I’m glad you mentioned multiple times how you’re unmotivated etc Bc I am too and I feel like I’m the only one!

[@emilyniehaus8400]

literally please don't stop making videos during this time!!!!!!! i literally dc if you are sitting in ur bed all day that's the content the ppl need rn

[@cassiekowalchuk3537]

Brooke, please keep posting blogs like this one! I know you think they'll become boring/repetitive but I enjoy watching these because it feels like you're hanging out with a friend (which we all need at a time like this). 💜💜💜

[@cassiekowalchuk3537]

vlogs ****

[@strongbodystrongmiind]

Your videos have really been helping me cope with my anxiety during this crazy time..! Thank u so much Brooke :,)

[@margarethess580]

"im gonna take my hair down bc i feel like george washington" felt that

[@KristiBergman]

The struggle is very relatable! Hope you’re doing okay and staying safe and healthy! 😀❤️

[@Watchover09]

“I got stung, so my eye is weird”. Idk why but this made me lol so big 😂😂

[@sarahstephens2877]

same ahahaha

[@MonikaRodriguez]

Your vlogs are always great to watch but now especially!! I love how conscious you are of things. Stay safe!!

[@kathrync4371]

I completely relate to feeling wildly unmotivated. I even have decent structure - I'm still a full time law student and working from home, but it's just HARD without the same physical/environmental routine. Don't beat yourself up about it. We're all doing our best ❤️

[@GwendolynKensinger]

The best thing I’ve done is not to structure my time too much. Some people need a really strict schedule but that overwhelms me even more. I have been blocking my time instead. In two hour increments I have down time (play Animal Crossing, etc.) and the next two hours have to be productive (film, edit, clean, etc.) and I do that from when I wake up until about 3-4 pm when I would usually be getting home from work. Nights are pretty much the same as they were before. Weekends my husband and I are tackling projects around the house (weeding, cleaning out the garage). Walking my dog when weather permits.

[@dianaRShew]

Do not apologize for feeling unmotivated! It’s hard to live with a drastically new routine at the drop of a hat. We are all doing the best we can. I’m also on LI and it’s really wild how quiet everything is. Focus on positivity and enjoy family time. Thanks for vlogging, needed that distracting after a long WFH day! ✌🏽 ❤️

[@brittanyanneoman]

“If you know, you know” - stay safe Brooke! I’m feeling the same as you.. unmotivated and out of sorts. Keep the vlogs coming! They make me smile. ☺️

[@mdaily9]

thank you for keeping your quarantine vlogs so real! love them!

[@christinamariemoney]

I’ve been trying my best to stay positive during this quarantine but last night I was watching the office, started laughing at something funny, and then just broke down crying and couldn’t stop 😂😂 I think the social isolation is getting to me!

[@sin...5982]

I did the same thing the other day. Started crying right out of nowhere. Hugs to u!! We got this 💪

[@ceceschurke65]

so thankful for your vlogs rn!! love u girl

[@emilyc1123]

your vlogs are so soothing and helpful to watch!!

[@aureliaschurmann7417]

Ok Girl, your abs are on point. Seriously they looked so good, when you showed the self-tanner👌🏻

[@alireed5298]

Hey Brooke! I think one way to stay motivated and keep working (while I’m a college student so I don’t have 40hrs/week of work to do, I definitely like to keep my days more structured so when I wake up I like to do things that are productive, whether it be school work, cleaning, reorganizing, decluttering, whatever it’s is I do that (very un restricted lots of downtime) and then whenever I have family dinner after that I then do the thing that are keeping me sane and are more crafty. Right now I’m embroidering, drawing, coloring, sewing masks for hospitals, watching tv, etc. nothing crazy. And I always break up my productive time by going on an hour long or more walk! Even if the weathers cold or cloudy I still get bundled up and put in a podcast and take my dog for a walk! I think it’s a very good way to get some me time out of the house and also to kill some serious time and feel good about it

[@SaraEvanss]

i’m obsessed with your sweatpants at the beginning of the video!!

[@simplysarahbeauty]

Your mom is always the cutest omg

[@averygaming8707]

Animal crossing is life!!! We love Brooke style. Love these walk with mother! Working from home. Ticket sales rep for baseball team.

[@stephanielake11]

I only have the old "Animal Crossing" on Nintendo DS☹️️ I've been going for daily walks which helps me a bit. Am planning to read one book per week, and as well start the "5 Minute Gratitude Journal" again by The Ikonns. Am also gonna buy a 1 Gallon Jug to drink 1 Gallon of water per day!! Stay safe Brooke & everyone here!!💕💕💕💕

[@sammiekuhn5362]

Can you do a quarantine morning routine and night routine!!! I need to watch these to get my routines down!!

[@belbelbel98]

You can be sad and unmotivated, it’s totally okey. Love ya and love ur vlogs

[@taylormullins6324]

The “GDDDUUEEHH” had me rolling 😂😂😂

[@chandleradaway]

I’ve been feeling increasingly anxious and your vlogs are helping. I wish you were daily vlogging but I know that’s a lot of work. Stay well!

[@cneblett1996]

I saw animal crossing and clicked so fast 😂it’s been such a stress reducer during this time. I also love watching videos like this while working from home

[@julievermarien1278]

I actually really liked this vlog, takes your mind off things

[@amynicholls814]

Keep up vlogs. Love them. Never boring. Love ur mom and you.

[@jubbles01]

Don’t worry about your vlogs being boring! I still love seeing your life since we’re all going through the same thing rn ❤️

[@Ccand0]

The music in the beginning of the vlog always has me hyped! Also if anyone wants to come to my island on animal crossing, let me know!!

[@hayleyolson2316]

hehe should be studying for my online class quiz that starts in 8 minutes but here i am!

[@justmartine]

Besides my school work, I've been reading, doing yoga, etc. Starting April 1st, I'll be doing Camp NaNoWriMo so that will be exciting and interesting. Lots of cool things transferred online, like my clogging group from home did a Facebook Live I could join and some concerts and stuff lol

[@lifewithlily01]

totally feel what you are saying, i am feeling unmotivated and uninspired just because of all the uncertainty and who knows how long it will be this way :( but yes we are so lucky to have a home to stay safe in, this too will pass

[@imalik4965]

i made a list of things i've always wanted to do/accomplish (at home): i work towards something on the list everyday like clean my room, read a book, do a puzzle, learn a new language, etc.... :) and of course you can always do a bonding activity with your family

[@charlotteclausen9266]

LOVE the quarantine vlogs

[@mirandaalexis]

we love an influencer who is taking this social distancing and quarantining seriously.

[@KatieSev]

"Brooke I have an idea too, spark the economy..." 😂😂😂 I died

[@johnnam1380]

It's so tough to keep mentally stimulating during this time. Basically i try to set goals for myself, like yoga every morning(I do yoga with adrien on KZbin) and then I try to read a few chapters of my book and drink lots of water just to do something good for my body lmao stay happy, girl.

[@melissaserrano6851]

Thanks for the content queen! We need you now more than ever 🥺💕

[@rosepetalbeauty0725]

Thank you so much for posting in all this madness! Your videos are a light ❤️ btw I’m gonna need a full vid of animal crossing review because I can’t get my hands on it and I’m living vicariously through you. LOL

[@maurawill51]

Adina sternly telling us to stay positive @5:25 is my new mood. Love you both. Could you guys like... sell tie dye kits to go with the white sweatshirts as an optional add-on? So everyone can customize their own? Just an idea!

[@ginacompton7750]

Making little goals is not stupid, sister. I do it too 💕

[@PriscaSakeuh]

I just bought my wife animal crossing and she has played probably 30 hours over the past 4 days. We're thriving over here on quarantine lol. Love your videos!!

[@raaachelko]

I loved this vlog, please keep doing them! ❤️

[@MaryYager]

I love seeing people taking social distancing seriously! Nurse from Nebraska here, wash ya hands and stay safe peeps

[@thebabyperks]

I’m social distancing in my house with my fiancé so I can’t complain, but I do really miss my mom and seeing vlogs with you at home with your mom makes my days better 💞

[@antoniajagodic]

Stay positive yesss 💗

[@kaylatcompton]

Wait actually you should tie dye some hoodies and do a giveaway!

[@naamigrandovsky4920]

Yess you Brooke !!!! Thank you for continuing to vlog . You and your mom are so cute , goals . Love your tie die pants gana go check them out . And yess make tie dye merch for gals on the go , everyone would love that

[@JocelynLehman]

I feel like the only person who’s not drastically affected by this. The uncertainty worries me but I try not to think about it because it doesn’t really help at all. I miss my friends and that sucks. But I write out a to do list every day which keeps me hella busy! Every day I FaceTime a friend, workout, work on schoolwork, cook a yummy supper with my family, watch a movie and whatever else! Lindsay adkinson had a great Instagram post about doing something every day for your body/mind/soul/other people! It’s helped a lot.

[@tracyallan8370]

Great vlog! FYI Not shaving is not gross, its just real life. Body hair and how you manage your body in general is not something you need to excuse or apologize for. Love your self lady, you deserve it.

[@ayaanhawkinsregis6254]

Noo this vlog is not boring. Keep vlogging, I love your videos!

[@Eleise20]

Nothing like being Quarantine and watching Brooke to keep me entertained something good about school being cancelled is not only sleeping in but not dealing with the high school stress and catching up on your favorite KZbinrs because you haven’t had the time to Watch there videos since you started High School Who here are High Schoolers and are dealing with the same thing as me 😂😂😂😂

[@tatianaeng4766]

ugh honestly love your vlogs and vids so much ❤️

[@addyloftin3062]

some of my best friends told me they got coloring books to do so I tried that and let me tell you it has helped me so much. its fun and surprisingly calming. 10/10 would recommend.

[@maddieeweest]

I totally get the “under packing” thing. I came to my parents house thinking I’d be here for 2 weeks and now it’s definitely going to be longer 😩

[@jenpierce1106]

I would definitely buy Brooke original tie-dye merch ! 🌈

[@lindsayeller5964]

best way to wake up on my first day off is watching a brooke vlog :)

[@mollyroseburns354]

Idk why literally chucked audibly @ still being able to walk around in “these parts”. Gotta find humor wherever you can rn. You’re killing it. Be patient with yourself! This is truly a bizarre time.

[@raesbookcase]

I can relate to going a little crazy from being in the house all day. Trying to get myself to go be active outside (while social distancing lol) can be challenging when the weather sucks :/

[@milliondollarlady]

Enjoyed this! Stay safe! ❤️

[@camilleloveyou98]

I definitely under packed going home for my spring break. I still have my apartment close to my college. I been pretty isolated here besides jumping back and forth being with my family and my fiancé family. I start my nursing classes and online clinical at April 5. I feel that I should be at my apartment to be focus on my school work.

[@Jess_Marie]

buying that green/white long sleeve RN!!

[@anaaguirre6056]

just wanted to say about when you’re mom said that they were wearing masks and gloves and you said “they must be sick then.” Well not necessarily, some people do it to protect themselves. I work at a clinic so even when I’m out at the store I wear all that to protect myself and possibly other people in case I could have picked something up from a patient. Much love, stay safe. ❤️

[@JessicaBurgo]

Stay safe over there

[@rileycombs8885]

omg abs brooke!!!!

[@hellobobakitty360]

I totally agree with the weather! I live in Utah and it just snowed today and it sucks ☹ but I would love to keep seeing your vlogs even if they are redundant 💛

[@lisamays912]

Jessie A That’s so wrong it’s spring I was in the process of locating to Utah for work but that’s on hold until whenever this is lifted

[@PrincessJacklyn333]

So thankful for your vlogs!

[@SamElle]

Honestly i think i like your customized bleached sweatpants from your insta more than the ones you bought from urban, and SOO much cheaper!!

[@lindsayalmquist4402]

I personally love the Adina x Brooke vlogs! Keep positive ladiezzz ♥️

[@brianaolea-rowe2514]

You HAVE to try the alani nu energy drinks. I’m addicted!

[@kirstyharris2089]

Please keep posting, even if it’s the same thing! Honestly it’s the only thing keeping me sane 😅

[@sadieliz2680]

when you did the digital download on the switch did you have to buy it?? and how do you download it?

[@Carabellaxo]

Super random question, when you use the isle of paradise tanning drops in your moisturizer, do you find that it has a weird scent once it’s settled on your face?

[@brittniharriss1883]

new idea: bleaching the black dnt txt hoodie

[@emmarosner9565]

I literally choked on my water when you said "I look like george washington" lmao 😂 my fav KZbinr

[@srod31]

Also I support the IG lives!

[@Carolinesbookworld]

You should get one of those adult coloring books and listen to music while doing it, it really helps!

[@zokorsammy2594]

okay but a tie dye dnt txt hoodie/shirt would be a GAME CHANGER

[@jassurosas]

Brooke! You can buy a switch plug in charger on amazon. Game changer when trying to advance and thrive in animal crossing.

[@jenniferwalker9577]

I miss living near a Saladworks, the farmhouse salad is SO GOOD

[@janiemelissa]

needed this & about to buy that urban set lmaooooo

[@Nicole-kb3fs]

I loveee animal crossing!! I dont have a switch but ive been playing the animal crossing app on my phone

[@ChloeJulian]

YAY I was so excited to see you posted. I wish I had a Nintendo Switch so bad lol.
