 Good morning. Good morning, everyone. I felt the need to turn on the camera and show you Just exactly what I look like when I first wake up in the morning. I just rolled out of bed somehow my ponytail Has inverted on itself. This is what people look like first thing in the morning I watch a lot of youtubers who you know they and you think they look perfect all the time And you're like wow they really have their shit together and I'm disgusting sometimes you can compare yourself So I just wanted to show you hi. I need to at least fix this ponytail Like this is very Deb from Napoleon Dynamite. So today is a very exciting day because I am officially fully vaccinated I've been fully vaccinated, but this is my official two weeks post Vaccination so I am like fully faxed and Just feels really surreal. So what I think I might do today is possibly go thrifting I Know anything up on this line. This is gross. I'm highly considering Going thrifting today. I'm hoping that if I go right when they open It won't be busy and then I can get in and out and just kind of Ease my way back into things because I think that that's eventually Going to have to happen. What would I even wear? I honestly can't even I can't that's too overwhelming to think about We're gonna go downstairs Because I have a new product that I purchased that I want to try out on camera I've seen a lot of people talking about it, and I'm really curious. So let's check it out I recently purchased Chamberlain coffee. It is Emma Chamberlain's coffee company I think she has it with her dad maybe It smells So good. So I am 33 so I you know sometimes watching Emma Chamberlain makes me feel 80 But I think she's wonderful and I decided to try out her coffee company because people were saying that it's actually like pretty good It's not just like oh a youtuber made a coffee brand. It's I've heard it's pretty good So I ordered the decaf because I have anxiety I noticed probably I think I stopped drinking caffeine back in I think I've talked about this before too back in like 2012 or 13 because I noticed when I was having caffeine that my anxiety was worse than it had ever been I was getting constant panic attacks, and I don't know if it was just the coincidence of when I stopped drinking caffeine But I stopped getting regular panic attacks. It was literally the thing that saved me I had like debilitating anxiety and it was awful So I drink decaf now because coffee is one of my favorite flavors in the world So I got this sleepy sloth decaf blend I got the ground type of beans like I got them already ground because I don't have a coffee grinder And I didn't want to have to buy one even though I know it would probably taste better if I ground them from whole bean But anyways, this is what it looks like. It was pretty expensive. I think it was like 20 or $30 It also came with these little temporary tattoos. I was like, what are these called temporary tattoos? What a throwback. So it's this cute little Tab and you just pull it and you just open it like this and it reseals love that so okay This is probably a good time to talk about this then I purchased this motherfucker It's covered in dust because we haven't used it in a while I purchased this smeg coffee maker because number one I kind of wanted to try it out because all of like the influencers have it but number two just cuz it's cute But it's hard to tell this is like literally a spaceship is so big it takes up like almost this entire counter It's really hard to tell on camera, but in person you see it You're like whoa that is a big coffee maker compared to this like tiny little Nespresso thing But I need to test it out like as a cup of coffee. So I'm unfortunately gonna be using this and also I just don't think it's like that Great. I've heard a lot of people rave about it, but for almost $200. It's just extremely overpriced in my opinion Yeah, it's cute, but it's just huge and annoying. So anyways, okay, let's test it out The other thing is like how You you pour it this far right and then you don't have any more room to pour it. So you're just like bending It's dripping everywhere. I just don't understand. Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to be right-handed like How do you get the rest of the water in there even when you try from this side like how How do you get it in the hole? You can't I don't understand. I'm gonna do two scoops because I did four cups. Is that right? I don't know. There we go This lighting isn't fantastic, but we're gonna try the chamberlain coffee. Cheers I think I made it a little weak. I don't know if I needed to brew it stronger I don't really taste much Am I that girl on tiktok who discovered she had COVID? I'm kidding I'd be really curious to try this as like a cold brew option And maybe I'll have better luck with that and maybe I'll brew it like a little bit stronger And then I'll do it as like an iced coffee type of thing So maybe I'll do that in the future, but it's very good. It's like a nice subtle coffee flavor That's my really super super scientific review. Definitely gonna keep drinking it Like the more I drink it the more I like it actually Very nice. Still a 100% teen iced coffee iced latte person, but it's good. The only yeah, that was the other thing I forgot to mention is that um, the only thing that I wish was different I wish they had the decaf ones in the bags Because that's sort of like chamberlain coffee's thing is like making coffee bags like tea bags And they didn't offer from what I saw they didn't offer the decaf ones in bags So I had to buy like the drip coffee one. Okay now I'm going to make some breakfast And I think I'm gonna get ready. I'm so excited. You know, it's funny because You have these conversations with friends family I've been asked this question in q&a's and it's like what are you going to wear when you do your first outing and like The first time I went to the grocery store was basically in my pajamas the first time I saw my mom I was pretty sure I was in my pajamas. So the first time I go to the thrift store. What am I going to wear? Do I want to wear something like, you know, you think you're gonna go all out, right? But really I just want to be comfortable if I've learned one thing From this panty is that I will never be uncomfortable in my clothing again So I'm still trying to decide but I did pick out this little cohort that I've had for a while Had it for like a little over a year and it's like a matching Gingham thing and that's actually super comfortable. Maybe that was like some sneakers We'll half up half down moment I don't know. I don't know what to do. We're gonna figure this out. We're gonna figure this out together Two hours later. Oh my goodness. Hello. It is a couple hours later. I need some air This is the specific reason why I didn't shower or wash my hair before I went to the thrift store because I knew I was gonna feel so dirty so sweaty so hot and I do I do feel all of those things so Getting ready to head home now. It was success. I'm not gonna like, you know, ruin it I also just completely realized as I was shopping that I forgot to bring my own donations because I always Try to make donations when I'm shopping at the thrift store My good friend Macy Eleni always says you gotta give the good shit to get the good shit and I couldn't agree more So I'm annoyed that I forgot that but whatever. I'm actually gonna call Drew and see if he wants anything for lunch We're breaking up. Oh my god, so much sweat is collecting under my boobs right now and also there's a hair. Hello Okay, I feel like I talked about this in the video, but I feel so Over stimulated like that was a lot. I was there for almost two hours I think next time I need to just do like an in and out thing I think because I hadn't been to the thrift store in like A year in two months that I was like, I need to look through everything I need to look through every section and I mean I did find a lot of good stuff So I guess there was like some benefit to that but I was just like by the time I left I was like get me out of here. It was really really nice for those of you who watched my vlogs throughout quarantine It was just really nice to be able to like get out safely and do something for myself I've been doing things here and there You know and assessing the risk and assessing the safety level and stuff and it's just been nice to kind of Slowly ease back into things, but I do think I'm good on like going out. I like forgot how Like much energy that takes get up get ready go drive to the thrift store film all the stuff get home wash it Try it on film it instead of just going walking two feet away into my filming room and like filming a video It's just funny like there's just so much that goes into it and I used to do it so frequently So I've just got to get used to it again. It's totally fine, but I enjoyed it. It was a fun experience I feel lighter like I feel Just lighter. Although I feel really annoyed that this top keeps rolling up whatever what happens when you have rolls Things roll. Okay. I'm gonna figure out what to pick up for lunch and I'm going to shower from head to toe And then I will catch up with you guys later Good morning. It is like five days later something like that sometimes I've just been Really enjoying having the camera off and like when I feel those times where I don't feel like picking up the camera I just don't and today I do so I'm very happy to be here with you. I have just finished self tanning I've got my pajamas on but when I film you're only going to be able to see from here up So it's fine. I've got like a nice little y2k hairstyle going on here today Just having a little bit fun with it because why not we're a year plus into quarantine, you know Let's just have fun. I'm also super excited because alexa and I are texting right now and girlfriend collective is releasing swimwear tomorrow It's like they knew I needed them and then also later today. I'm super excited because I'm going to be talking with jessica I'm going to have a little FaceTime date with Jess. Actually, I need to like hurry up because that's going to be in like an hour And I have two videos to film. So anyways, just wanted to check in say hello How's it going? Things are going well over here. It's Monday morning. I can't remember if I said that I just had my perfect far. I love them and we're going to film some thrifting content So a few days ago went to the thrift store got home washed everything got it all cleaned and sanitized Now I'm going to try it all on. My hair is extremely dirty Extremely dirty and I just put about half of a container of dry shampoo in it It's like day four. I really need to wash it But I wanted to like put on some self tanner and let that develop before I wash my hair I wanted to like wash it all off at the end of the day today. So that's the plan We are going to get some work done and then have a cute little FaceTime date with Jessica So much later now. It's like 4 30 p.m. Whoops. I got on my FaceTime call with Jess. We talked for like three hours. These things happen But the uh thing that's really on my mind after a long work day is not what it typically would be which number one I yes, I did change back into my pajamas That's my go-to and I'd usually like get into bed decompress watch a video or something But I really want to try This thing that I got from the thrift store and yes, this is real I really did find an old school classic chia pet at the thrift store and I'm very excited about it It cost $4.99 and in case you weren't a kid of the 90s, which if you weren't I don't know what to tell you if you weren't a kid of the 90s and you didn't know the Magnificence that was a chia pet and the commercials that they had um You missed out it is essentially chia seeds that you smear on like a pot and it grows In the shape of something this one is a dog Typically it's like a head or something But I kind of really want to try it and I found this when I went thrifting the other day And I really want to try it out. That's what I'm doing with my freaking wild Monday night All right, let's see what we got to do here. So are there instructions? Yes Okay, we have the seeds we have the chia seeds which honestly like I already had chia seeds I had chia pudding this morning as you saw growing your chia pet planter. Soak your chia planter in water for one hour Okay, I guess this is going to be a longer process than I thought. Here's my little dog friend Because it takes one to two weeks for the full coat to grow in so let's hope that goes by quickly Soak your chia planter in water for one hour. So like I literally just soaked this whole thing in water Okay There's my little friend drowning in the water and then it says In a separate container Mix two teaspoons of chia seeds in a quarter cup of water allowed to sit for an hour Stirring occasionally the moist in the seeds the seeds will form a gel like paste I know because I ate it for breakfast, which will help the seeds adhere to your chia planter This is so funny fill it with the water and place it in the drip tray and put it in an area with good sun Exposure but not too hot or too cold. Keep it filled with water each day. So if you keep it in this It's important for the first few days to keep the seeds moist We recommend placing a plastic bag loosely over the chia planter for three or four days until the seeds sprout This is kind of a lot of work. They made it seem really easy Depending on the pond the conditions in your home your chia will have a lifespan of approximately four weeks Chia planter should be washed and can be replanted indefinitely This feels like a lot of work for four weeks a quarter cup of water and two teaspoons. Yes This is literally like making my breakfast. What? Sit you in an hour. All right. It's been a little more than an hour. I won't lie I'm eating some cashews drew and I took a nap, but I'm supposed to fill this up with water Which it's already full with water put it in this little drip tray and then I'm supposed to take my goop Which by the way, that's what it looks like after an hour or so And I smush it all into the grooves like this and then that's it Really weird. Oh, this is so satisfying. Take your hand in that All right, there she is In all her glory how exciting we'll see you in a few days little friend Gonna eat my cashews and enjoy the rest of my evening I don't know how long this vlog is but hopefully it was somewhat entertaining This is just where my life is at right now. You know, we're gonna make some chicken schnitzel for dinner And I will touch up with you all in the next vlog. I love you
