A Day In My Life
Recently I took a survey to see what kind of posts you guys would like to see on lifesfinewhine and I got a bunch of really fun ideas and A DAY IN MY LIFE was one of these ideas. I thought it would be fun to share my daily routine with you guys and just kind of give you an idea of what my day is like. I know there’s isn’t a lot going on in my daily life right now since I don’t have school and stuff but I still try to keep busy.With everything going on at the moment I don’t really go out much unless I need something from the store. This is what I did yesterday which was a Sunday so it was kind of a relaxed day for me. I really hope you enjoy this post and thank you Bookish Refreshment for suggesting this post idea! I think this is such a fun post to do and I really hope you enjoy reading the post as much as I enjoyed creating it.
Wake up, meditation and breathing exercises (9:30 am to 10:30 am)
I try really hard to start my day with meditation and breathing exercises. As you guys know I suffer from anxiety but meditation and breathing exercises really help me out with it especially when I start my day out with it. It just makes my whole day so much better. I can’t always do it in the morning but I try really hard to do it whenever I can.
Eat breakfast (10:30 am to 11:00 am)
So, technically I don’t eat my breakfast I tend to drink it. And by that I mean I usually start the day with smoothies, tea or some protein milk. I feel gross when I eat for breakfast so I like to keep it simple.
Check on blog (11:00 am to 12:00 am)
Next I check up on my blog and go through my comments and check out some other blogs and stuff. I usually do this for about forty-five minutes to an hour.
Make lunch (12:00 pm to 2:00 pm)
After working on my blog for a bit I usually start working on my lunch and finish eating my lunch. Today, I decided to make a vegetable pancake- it turned out delicious and I’ll definitely be putting the recipe on my blog soon!
Check social media and emails (2:00 pm to 3:00pm)
After lunch I check out my social media and reply to stuff, check out my feed and reply to DM’s. I try to limit my social media time these days so I try to spend like fifteen/twenty minutes on each.
Check on blog (3:00pm to 3:40 pm)
I check on my blog again for a while and schedule the post for the day.
Duolingo (3:40 pm to 4:00 pm)
As you guys know I’ve been learning German on Duolingo again which has been super fun! I started from the beginning again just to remind myself the basic stuff. I usually spend about fifteen to twenty minutes doing my daily lesson.
Plan out the week (4:00 pm to 4:20 pm)
I like to plan out my posts for the week on Sunday so I know exactly what I’ll be posting and when. I like to have my posts ready in advance in case something happens to come up or I get busy. I usually use this adorable dog themed planner my sister got me!
Write +edit post and create + edit images (4:20 pm to 6:00 pm)
I begin writing my posts after planning out the posts for the week because I like to get them done at least a day or two in advance. It takes a while to write and edit the post, create and edit the images etc so I just prefer to do everything in advance.
Make dinner (6:00 pm to 8:00 pm)
After doing this I like to start cooking dinner. I prefer to have a light dinner- usually something rice based. Today I decided to make a Korean cauliflower dish with rice- recipe coming soon! I ate it with seaweed and kimchi.
Watch TV (8:00 pm to 9:00 pm)
After dinner I like to relax for a bit so I watch a TV show or a movie or something. I’m super into The Simpsons right now. Oh and if anyone has good movie recommendations please let me know in the comments!
Check on the scheduled post and blog (9:00 pm to 9:30 pm)
I check up on my blog again to make sure my scheduled post has gone up because WP can be annoying sometimes. I answer some more comments, look through other blogs and write some more.
Read (9:30 pm to 10:15 pm)
After this I like to take it easy and read for a while. Sometimes I drink some chamomile tea while reading because it’s very calming and helps me sleep better. Currently, I am rereading The Little Prince which is one of my favourite books of all time.
Check on everything one last time (10:15 pm to 10:30 pm)
I check on social media, my blog and my emails one last time before bed. I do this about half an hour to an hour before I go to bed because doing something on a screen right before you go to sleep makes it more difficult to sleep. So I try not to use my phone right before bed.
Meditate (10:30 to 10:50 pm)
Before bed I like to meditate again because this helps me calm my brain down and put me in the right mental state to go to sleep. This is also when I take my CBD oil every two days.
Sleep (10:50-ish pm)
Finally, I go to bed and that’s pretty much the end of my day!

My mother is a very good planner. It has taken me over a decade to realise the benefits that come from effective planning and put my own plans down on paper. My plans at the moment are simply in a to-do list form, and apart from working during the day Monday to Friday and ultimate frisbee two nights a week, everything else is flexible as to when I do it throughout my day.
The one thing that is the same every day is I start with prayer and reading one of the Psalms from the bible. Spending peaceful time this way really helps me cope with any issues or frustrations that I might have at work or when I get onto writing my books.
Thank you for sharing your schedule. It’s really helpful to see how other bloggers plan and work. 🙂
Thank you! I find planning and scheduling everything very beneficial too. I try to be flexible because not everything always goes as planned and that’s okay. However, as much as possible I try to stick to my schedule.
Wow you have such a nice scheduled routine! It’s good to have it, especially for mental health!🥰
Thank you so much! Scheduling everything really helps with my anxiety for sure!
As someone who’s trying to up his productivity and his blogging output, I really enjoyed this post. Now I know it takes much more than posting one article per week to make something out of a blog. Thanks for sharing, Pooja!
Thank you! Yes you definitely need to be consistent and active!
Woah, your life is really organized. I wake up and move round the house then end up spending the rest of the day in front of a television screen.
Thank you so much! Haha I do that once in while too but I try to be productive for the rest of the days.
