Hey Guys, I'm Loretta and welcome to my channel KemushiChan!

Today I'm in my empty, barren room

to share a confession!

I'm Loretta, a girl from the U.S.A

and I'm a graduate student here in Japan!

At the beginning of 2017 I made a video

about the 7 study habits I was going to QUIT in 2017

and specifically you MAY remember me saying:

"I am also guilty of CRAMMING!"

Cramming do not cram! Study a little bit every day.

I was going to stop cramming and finally get some sleep!

But in reality???

Oh I just remembered I have a presentation tomorrow!

Eh.. I'll just do it in the morning!!

I have been doing exactly the one thing

that I told you guys NOT to do!

I am completely guilty of cramming

not sleeping, and not taking care of myself!

The thing is, I have a very personal story for you guys

that I HAVEN't shared becuase I've been embarassed!

Okay, here's the truth!

The JLPT, the Japanese Language Proficiency Test

There's a top-tier level called the n1 which is like the maximum level

This is what can get you jobs in Japan

and proves that you hit the top most mark.

The truth is.. I failed!!

I did NOT pass the N1

and to this day it kind of haunts me because

I missed the mark by 3 itsy bitsy points

over STUPID mistakes!

The secions I NORMALLY do well on (reading and listening sections)

I was so slow and sluggish

that I ran out of time and didn't answer all the questions

as for the listening section,

it started playing, and I don''t know what happened,

but I just completely... spaced out!

Nothing! I did not hear a single thing!

Then suddenly it's like: "Select your answer: A, B C or D"

meanwhile I'm like - wait WHAT was the question?!

Meanwhile the next question already started

and that kept happening over and over again!

I just completely FAILED

I don't want to talk about it.. how embarassing!

So I have to redo that!

There are so many times

Where I missed the mark or didn't do my best

or even if I got a good grade at the end of the semester

With thins that were really important to me

I just failed because I simply hadn't slept

or a mental mess and hadn't taken care of myself!

I'm gonna get sharper and quicker

And I'm gonna get back to level of performance that

I know I'm capable of if I just had normal regular sleep

So that's why I'm just so excited to make this video

because well, today's video is actually sponsored

by a company that saw that I'm studying

and asked if I wanted to get some better sleep!

and test out a bed and see if that helped out at all!

There's an Australian company called Koala.

They make these like innovative

You jump on it, and your wine glass doesn't tip over, don't disturb your neighbors, sleep miracle beds,

OBVIOUSLY I'm not going to pass that up!

The other day I was doing some Christmas shopping

But when I came back there was a truck outside

and it was Koala!!!

Sound like a truck is outside...

It's here???

Or not???

I have been staring at it all day

and I'm so excited to finally get in there!

Let's do it!

It even comes with a Koala!

It's alive!!!

It's soooo cozzzyyy!

I don't think I'll be getting up for a while!

It feels like cool to the back, not like not cold

but nice and like... refreshing almost!

Hear that??

You're supposed to be able to jump on one end without disturbing the other end

but I want to see if that's really true

I can't believe that that would actually happen...

Let's give it a test!

Alright, so here's the wineglass.

I'll put it right there where you can see it

It's moving a little bit, but like

Honestly, it seems pretty like sturdy!

This might actually work!

PLEASE DON'T SPILL!!!

Alright, this is the last time you ever saw it!

A dry bed!!

I'm going to jump!

THREE

TWO

One!!!!

Wait... seriously?!

Okay, keep a close eye on it!

Are you kidding me with this?!

Oh my gosh!!

It's real water and it didn't spill!

Dude, this is the real deal!

They weren't joking, it does not move at all!

*chokes*

I was jumping all OVER that bed!

Yeah, so just like right off the bat.

The bed is just---- I love it!!

I didn't expect it to be this comfortable,

and I didn't expect it to actually beat the wine test!

That's ridiculous!!

It's comfortable, it's firm

But it has this like squishiness top to it

that grabs and pulls you in and never lets you go!

I'll never be on time to anything after this

I'll just be in bed all day!

For me, personally, being here in Japan

I never bought something as big as a bed before

because like....what if it doesn't work?

Can you even like throw it away or return it?

But when Koala asked me if I wanted to test out this bed

they pointed out that anyone who buys this bed

you have a 120-day...or NIGHT trial, I should say

to make sure that you actually do like it

The fact that it comes in this box

I thought it wouldn't fit the door or break something

but it's not that difficult to carry

and you can get it around sharp corners if you have a staircase

And Japan is notoriously MOIST and mold prone

which is another reason I never bought a big bed

I'm just glad that they pointed out it's mold resistant

being mold resistant is a huge plus for me

When I was first hearing about Koala

They sent this list of perks and really good points

The beds are 100% recyclable

with the trash situation in Japan that's a huge plus

it's also vegan and 100% animal cruelty free

So much so that, for every bed that is purchased

A portion of it in Japan goes to the WWF and

Also to their koala sanctuary

where they're taking care of Koala's

Not this guy, though! He's mine!

I've never seen a bed that acts like this before

and it's JUST in time too because

I have a new semester coming up

and I have to start my graduate thesis in 2 weeks!!

So thank you so much to koala for sending me

the best present ever

I can finally start getting some sleep!

And ...yuugen jikkou!

I can finally start practicing what I preach

and finally get some good sleep and life balance!

Hopefully.. I'll start improving all across the board!!

So I'm going to leave a link to koala below

if you want to check out the beds for yourself

I highly recommend it - seriously!

If you have any questions or want me to test it again

I'll just jump again in my next school vlog!

I'll just jump some more if you want it!

Thank you so much for watching today!

I'll see you guys well rested in my next videos!

Okay, bye!!
