A couple weeks or even months ago, I decided to do a couple of videos to keep my YouTube channel ticking over. But as with everything in life not all goes well or even go as planned in my case. I did manage to make a few videos but I just couldn’t find the time to edit them before uploading to my channel. I am sure you have seen my channel and if not see it HERE, it is not the most beautiful nor are my videos. The reason is because sometimes I just upload them as made straight to YouTube with no edit or filter (still working on this ha!). So I decided to relegate (downgrade) some of these “would have been” vlogs into posts hence my not so catchy post title “vlogs relegated to posts”.
Natural Hair Q&A Journey –> You may or may not know that last year I made the decision to have the big chop after university and I was going to share my hair journey so far. But I have been so lazy and I do not really do much with this kinky I call hair, I decided it was not worth it doing a vlog. I did want to mention the products I use, which include Argan oil that I got from my glossy beauty box (May box). The other products I use are all from the “olive oil” brand, tried caster oil but didn’t do nothing for me apart give me more dandruff which I did not need.
Get Ready with Me — > my sister helped me film this video whilst we were in Munich, when I watched it back plus with my lack of editing skills I was just like naaa can’t do this. It was like being on reality TV with camera following your every move that was super uncomfortable and crippy for me. It’s all well and good when I am filming alone and am mostly in same position.
How to pack for a holiday — > so before we departed for Munich couple weeks now I decided to film a video of me packing for a short break and what I was taking. Once I finished I realized I was gonna unpack it all again as was not sure how much language dad had booked for us. I deleted the video because sharing it I felt would have been deceitful because though I had intended to pack what I had shown on the video I ended up carrying only a quarter of that plus other items I felt were more essential than what I had mentioned in the vlog.
Morning and night time routine — > I have done a night time routine and it has not changed much, my morning routine is basically; wash face with water, then use “Clear Start”, rinse, towel dry and then moisturize with simple’s replenishing and hydrating moisturizer and that’s it. I felt this didn’t need a whole video to explain so I nipped it in the bud.
May new finds & emptied — > this would have been a worth it video but the time to sit down and gather the items then remember their names and what they for also where I got them from became too much for me. I have so much going on and blog is slowly but surely booming so I kinda just said you know what let me step back and come back to it from another angle so this is my angle.
**So that’s my Top 5 vlogs relegated to posts, I hope you enjoyed reading this post! Feedback on all my posts is always welcome and appreciated so long as its constructive and not abusive**

I like posts better than vlogs actually! I read a lot of blogs on my phone, so I’m less likely to watch a data-sucking video 🙂
xo, Hima

Caity @ Where The Heart Is says
I ALWAYS wanted to vlog, but I’m not sure I know how to do all the editing and things for it!! And running a blog takes enough time, hehe!
Mia Myrabev says
It does take a lot of time, I rung two blogs and vlog now and again but I will admit it can become tiresome x
Annabel Krantz says
I totally know the pressure to edit before posting – a big reason why my Etsy shop isn’t live yet! Go you for being brave enough to vlog in the first place!
Mia Myrabev says
Thanks Annabel! I honestly love to vlog but like you said edit pressures are too high as since I wanna be real I don’t really edit anything

esther julee says
that’s great that you are doing more youtube videos. it’s sometimes weird to say this.. but that’s my husbands profession.. making youtube videos. 😛 i’m still learning to be better in front of camera.. i still get SO weirded out that i can’t be myself.
Mia Myrabev says
I need to get tips from your husband
MyLifeAsAMummy says
I think this is a fab idea! Have always wanted to look at vlogging! Your morning and night time regime has inspired me to actually make myself have a regime!
Laura x x x
Mia Myrabev says
I am always more happy when I inspire someone.
Stephanie Merry says
I sympathise with you, running a YouTube channel is hard work, not only trying to find time to film, but to also edit and upload as well. I like the idea of relegating videos to posts! x
Mia Myrabev says
Thanks Stephanie! It’s the time that I need more of then the motivation to edit and upload lol
