I’M AWESOME AT FORTNITE

Right?

I have discovered Fortnite in an Airbnb in Brussels last year, and I immediately got super excited about it. It was the first game of this type that I have ever seen and played. Disclaimer: I have never been a gamer girl, the only games that I used to play were Crazy Taxi and SIMS. I don’t remember ever playing a (serious) shooter game, except maybe for the first 15 minutes of GTA Vice City, which I’m not even sure you can call a shooter game. Noob.

But I like Fortnite a loooot! I know there’s a bit of hate around it, don’t know why, don’t really care, I’m gonna keep playing. It’s really fun.

Sooo here is me playing Fortnite:

I am not a complete beginner as you can see, but I’d still call myself a noob, from various reasons:

I look at the keyboard a lot. Which is really peculiar, as I am a super experienced writer and I never look at the keyboard when I’m writing text. But apparently my brain stops working the same when I play Fortnite, and I’m not able to change between shotgun and sniper without a thorough investigation on where is the 4 key on my keyboard.
I can’t build stuff (not without looking at the keyboard and being killed twice before I find the Q).
I die a lot in the game. But you can’t see that cause I edited it all out, ahahaha.
I sometimes panic and shoot random bullets everywhere.
I spend most of my time gathering ammo instead of killing enemies.

For the one guy who commented on my video “Not noob. Fake noob.”, please read above, dear friend. And thanks for watching and commenting, you are welcome to come back anytime! 🙂

That being said, let me know how awesome you think I am, on a scale from 1 to 10! I am allowed to say 11 since it’s my video, but feel free to give me the grade I deserve. 😛

Thank you for watching, many thanks for all the nice messages and support that I have received from my friends, and hear you on the next one!

HOW DOES AN AUCTION WORK – MONOPOLY

This is my first ever YouTube video huehue.

I really worked so hard on it! It was my first time working with a video editing software so it was pretty challenging, but I made iiiit! And I received so many nice comments from all my friends, thank you so much everybody for your support, it means a SUPER lot!

In this video I talk about how does an auction work in MONOPOLY. I have presented the cases in which an auction is initiated, how does the bidding process go and when should you put a property up for auction. It is a pretty short video, but it is enough for the viewers to understand how auctions work and how to make them work to your advantage.

Enjoy the video, and let me know what other topics you’d like me to cover! I don’t only do MONOPOLY related videos, so feel free to leave any type of suggestion. Thanks! 🙂

BRUNCH IDEA: SALMON TOAST

This is my favorite brunch idea! It is super delicious, healthy, quick and easy to make – under 10 minutes, or 5 if you’re a pro like me.

All the ingredients are from Lidl, which is my favorite supermarket, as they have such a wide variety of products. I do not mind the fact that they do not have the most popular food brands that you can find everywhere, on the contrary. Every time I go to Lidl I love exploring their foods and brands, and I am almost never disappointed. Their products are really cheap and high quality, so I really recommend you give them a try if you haven’t already.

You will find a short description of the ingredients and the full recipe in the video. In the meantime, I will leave the prices for each ingredient below (at the time I bought the products, in May 2020):

Bread: 2,79 LEI
Cream cheese: 4,49 LEI
Salmon: 19,99 LEI
Arugula: 4,99 LEI
Baby spinach: 4,99 LEI
Cherry tomatoes: 8,99 LEI
Eggs: 9,99 LEI

The price may vary daily / weekly. The list above will provide enough ingredients for 3-4-5 servings, depending on serving size.

I apologize that the video quality is a bit low at the beginning, I had an issue I wasn’t able to solve during rendering. But it gets back to normal after the intro, so hang in there! 🙂

If you need something to watch while enjoying this delicious recipe, check out my MONOPOLY playlist on YouTube, you’ll definitely find something fun in there. Until next time, happy cooking!

HOW TO WIN AT MONOPOLY – PART 2

Part 2 is here!!!

In this video I continue my list of tips on HOW TO WIN AT MONOPOLY. I talk about Utilities, mortgage, trading, the types of cards in the game, building houses, and I reinforce the importance of owning as many Railroads as you can possibly buy, or trade.

This video also features a short recap from PART 1, but I recommend you go ahead and watch that one first, as it presents everything in detail. I have also included some “PART 1 tips in action” short sections, just to show you that the tips that I have presented in PART 1 actually work.

SPOILER ALERT: Yes, I did win the game. So now you can trust my tips, as I have proven that I truly am The Ultimate MONOPOLY Master Princess Queen. Therefore, if you follow my wisdom, you may be able to win every MONOPOLY game from now on. If you also befriend the dice, of course.

I am currently working on a new type of video, not MONOPOLY related, so stay tuned on my YouTub e channel! I am posting every week, and the new video will be up on Wednesday!

HOW TO WIN AT MONOPOLY

Today I am sharing with you all my tips on how to win at MONOPOLY!

I have been playing a lot of MONOPOLY lately, and I have learned a lot of stuff. I used to lose almost every time, especially when playing on the highest difficulty level. But now I rarely lose, and the tips that I am sharing in this video have helped me become The Ultimate MONOPOLY Master Princess Queen.

I have learned a lot of stuff while playing with the computer on the highest difficulty level – a lot of tactics and strategies that I would have never discovered otherwise. I also did a bit of YouTube research and found out a few other tricks. One of them, which I have not shared in the video, is the fact that there are a lot of chances for you or your opponents to roll 7 on the dice, so you might want to keep that in mind when buying properties or deciding if you should get out of jail in this round or not.

In this video I am playing against 2 computer players, on middle difficulty level, just to keep things neutral:

Enjoy this video on how to win at MONOPOLY! And share it with all your friends, otherwise it will get too boring for you to always win. Trust me, I know. 😉

Let me know what you think in the comments section here or on You T ube, and stay tuned for Part 2! 🙂

LET’S PLAY MONOPOLY!

Monopoly has been one of my favorite games since I was a little child (I still behave like a child sometimes, that is why I have added the “little” in there). Unfortunately I only got the chance to play it a few times with my friends, and I have been missing it ever since. Now, 15 years later, I took the important decision of coming back to this game that I find so exciting and interesting!

I’ve been playing a lot of Monopoly during lockdown, it is my favorite post-work chill time activity. And this is how I decided to start a YouTube channel with Monopoly related videos! (And not only, as you will soon find out.)

Here is Part 1 and Part 2 of my Monopoly Gameplay series, I am playing with 3 Tycoons, the hardest difficulty:

Part 1:

Part 2:

Before you go and watch the videos, let me know your honest opinion: who do you think won the game – me, or the bad boys? I promise I won’t get upset after reading your answers.

Thanks a lot for stopping by, hoping to see you here again soon, and keep your eyes on my YouTube channel, I am uploading every Wednesday! 🙂

DAY TIME SKINCARE ROUTINE

My morning skincare routine is really quick and easy, the steps are the same: cleansing, serum and moisturizer. I hope you will find some valuable information in this article, so let’s jump straight into it.

Step 1: cleansing the skin (1 min)

Most of the time I use only water to clean my face in the morning. I do this because I feel like using cleansing lotions every morning puts extra chemicals on the skin and strips it off its natural oils. Moreover, this works just fine for me so I don’t see a point in changing something that already works well. Sometimes, about 2-3 mornings out of 7, I will use a face cleanser, when I feel like my skin is too oily.
