Celebrate day 365? Here’s what YouTube does to grow after year one

The truth will be revealed when Carmina Lifestyle reaches the deadline of her 365 days on YouTube on October 23, 2025 . A month ago, it was a hot topic among my subscribers who were in a similar situation, with their anniversaries approaching. I also know friends who have had their YouTube channels for many years, and while they didn’t get monetized before their anniversary, they managed to achieve it afterward. Carmina is curious to see how things will unfold for her since she doesn’t do live streaming , unlike my friends who are already monetized. I’ve also noticed other channels with many subscribers that aren’t monetized, even though they do live streaming. Ultimately, it’s really up to you how you want to approach achieving the monetization timeline. Today is Friday, October 24, 2025. Looking at my YouTube Studio data as of October 18, 2025 , my public watch hours are at 1,506 out of 3,000.  It takes time for watch hours to update and reflect accurately. Carmina is not in ...

Kumori Japanese Bakery and Cafe

I was too curious and walk into this Japanese Bakery to see what they had to offer. I usually buy bread in Bread Talk and Yamato. I wanted to see what bread that I can buy and try for myself. The branch I went to visit was at UP Town Center. I love eating anything with cinnamon and came across a cinnamon roll. I had tried it for breakfast it is not what I had expected. The downside the cream cheese over powered the taste of the cinnamon bread, Maybe they had put too much. The bread is too sweet for me although the bread is really moist and soft. This is coffee bread with raisin. It is actually tasty something I would buy again. These are the other pastry that are sold in the bakery and cafe. Note: Carmina is not selling or advertising for  Kumori Japanese Bakery and Cafe.

Ice Scream for Ice Cream

Apart of our life we look for a sugar rush something to fill up our cravings. No matter what the weather is like from freezing, cold, warm and super hot we look for something to make us satisfied from our sweet tooth. My family loves ice-cream and the best to get their cravings satisfied is from Baskin Robbins.

Craving for Pizza from California

In the Philippines we can purchase S&R New York Style Pizza without being a membership and they have restaurants available in the mall or near a grocery store. S&R is just like the membership wholesale buying like in the United States called, Costco. S&R sells the same type of food carried in Costco in the United States. They also offer food coming from other countries. When I feel like eating clam chowder coming from the US I always just buy it from S&R and eating one cup can fill up my cravings. S&R New York Style Pizza can be delivered from your own home from Food Panda buy purchasing online.

Hokkaido Ramen Santouka

Today, we had no school due to the taal volcano as we are walking around U.P. Town Center you will notice lots of people are wearing mask to prevent inhaling the air. The weather is drizzling and I am wearing a rain coat to prevent getting sick while other people are passing by me with no jacket. My eye’s we’re everywhere when I saw so many places to eat and couldn’t decide where to eat. My stomach was already growling and I needed to think fast to build back my strength. I came across and found something I decided to eat at that I have never tried before I figure this is my chance to write it up and put it in my blog. This restaurant reminded me when I had traveled in Japan in my previous years. Hokkaido Ramen Santouka is not just a ramen restaurant they have different type of Japanese to choose from and I was able to check it out for myself. My tummy has a happy camper. For my appetizers I was able to try my favorite Kurobuta Gyoza with black pork dumplin...
