The Random Idea #4: Let's do something with your Saved Items
Do you have a long list of saved items on TikTok or Instagram?
The Random Ideas series
The series that was created with a tentative determination that I could get the series going after the 30-day writing challenge.
I am planning for this series to be my “lifebuoy” when I am too tight with time or too stuck with writing ideas, as I planned for these blogs to be short and sweet.
Basically, as the name suggests, I’d love to share with you a random idea on a random day.
My random idea today is around your Saved items.
You spend at least 5 hours on your phone, daily, on average.
You scroll through all the TikTok videos, Instagram reels and photos, or Facebook posts everyday.
You found a great TikTok videos showing how to change your car tyres in 15 seconds, and a fascinating trendy audio that you may dance along. You found an Instagram reels on losing-weight-but-yummy recipe. You found an interesting article saying that pig is smarter than dog.
Fashion styles. Nails set. Workout exercises. Eateries. Cafes. Books. Marketing templates. Design ideas. Motivational quotes. Anything.
Not just one.
You find at least a few of great life hacks, great tips, good recipes online every single day. And you clicked Save, whenever you feel like it.
How many things in your Saved Items have you actually looked back and done it?
Me first.
I have roughly over 50 Saved items on Facebook. 192 saved on TikTok saved. 468 on Instagram.
Except for roughly 13 nail sets (out of over 100 photos I saved) I actually used for my nail technician’s reference, I guess less than 10 things saved I actually looked back and done.
This is my done-list:
1 - Food recipes
Tomato noodle soup using canned sardine [Bún cá hộp]
I confirmed that this is actually so good given the amount of time and effort I put in. Must-try especially if you are time poor and kinda sick of instant noodles.
A home-cooked meal [Một bữa cơm nhà]
Vietnamese salted coffee [Cà phê muối]
I actually quite suck at making this.
2- Nails
3 - Random DIY [Do-it-yourself]
Drawing on a piece of receipt
To put it in your clear phone case. Pretty stoked with how it turned out.
Canvas painting
I have done a few, and even hosted some co-drawing days.
4 - Powerpoint
I love making fun and pretty slides. Though I have only used Morph once as I have kind of moved my “design career” to Canva aha.
This TikTok channel has a few more PowerPoint ideas which I thought is very cool.
[Well, I hope you “save” this blog if any of the above seems interesting to you!]
So, let’s go through your Saved list on TikTok, Instagram or any of your social media platforms:
Pick one and do it on the weekend [or a weekday that works for you], and/or
Share one to a person that you think may be interested in, and
Comment on this post one thing you saved and actually did, and how it went!
Please comment, as it’s free to make someone’s day!
