 Hi guys, welcome to a new vlog. So like I said in my previous video, I'm gonna go to the pool, need to work on my taxes and also I'm reading this book that I want to finish. So that's what we're doing today. I want to show you my little bikini because I really like it. I hope I don't get burned this time. I am going to put on sunscreen if I am out in the sun, but I think for the first part I'm probably just gonna be under the shady area because yeah I cannot get burned again. That was crazy but I just decided to wear this bathing suit. I just had lunch so whoo man I'm gonna head to the pool now. Okay so I made it to the pool as you guys can see and I took the Disney cruise line towel just because I wish I was on a cruise right now. I'm actually kind of crowded. I mean it's not crowded but I normally come like when nobody is here but this is the book I'm reading. I'm gonna do a video all about like how to get into reading because like you're looking at someone who had to like read the same page like over and over and over again because like I just I was slow at reading and everything but anyway I want to make a whole video on that. I'll probably make that tomorrow but I really want to finish this book that's gonna be like my goal and then I need to work on my taxes so hopefully some of these people like leave because they're like playing music and stuff which is fine but like still I kind of want to like sit over there in the shade and just like run through all of my transactions and stuff. That's gonna be my plan for today. It's just such a beautiful day out that like I could not pass it up and yeah I put sunscreen on too by the way so hopefully I do not get as burned as I did before because I got a little too much sun that day. Okay so I'm home now and I just got done showering as you guys can see and didn't start anything on the taxes which I'm probably just gonna put it off tomorrow. I'm probably just gonna put it off until tomorrow because we're having Hooters tonight. Sure it's probably almost home and everything so tomorrow will just be like a little bit of a busier day with the filming and everything. I'm in a comfy oversized t-shirts and yeah we're just gonna have a good relaxing Saturday evening. Also too I'm almost done with the book Bad Blood. I'm probably gonna finish it up tonight. I'm hoping just because it's really good book and yeah so you should totally get it if you haven't read it. It might be a little bit boring to some of you guys but it's about a startup in Silicon Valley that was kind of like a fraud. Hi guys it's the next day and finally I'm done with my taxes. It's four twelve in the afternoon and I don't know I don't feel like filming but I'm going to because I have like nothing to post. I'm normally like pretty good about like pre-filming and stuff but today just hasn't been a day. Yeah I don't know it's so weird because this year I was like so like I started out with like really good views and really good like everything and then like it kind of just I don't know. I guess I'm in one of those YouTube funks even though I still like love doing this obviously. I am wanting to see how people like curl their hair with a straightener so that's what I decided to film today because I thought it would be kind of fun to try to do. I'm just putting heat protectant on and now we're going to try to do it. I don't know if it's actually going to work and I've tried this before but it has not been successful whatsoever so I'm just going to try it again because I don't know. I think it'd be kind of cool like you know know how to do it. So I have this girl's TikTok. It's actually Sun Kiss Mom which is so funny but honestly like I love the way she does her hair. I'm going to try to do it so she claps this on, claps her hair like that and then almost turns it. I'm going to try this again. I wish I could watch this in like slow motion. So she has it like this. I don't want to burn my hair either and then she claps it on and then she does this and then she goes down honestly. This is so funny. I'm going to try that again. Like why did it not do anything? Maybe it's because I still have like heat protectant in my hair. It's still a little wet. Maybe it needs to be like dry. That is so funny. It just gives me like one little curl but her curls always look so good. Like here we go. A little better here I guess. That's the best I've ever been able to do it. Let me try this. So she does this and then flips it over like this. I'm going to try to push it like wait why is that not doing anything? Okay maybe I'm not taking big enough pieces either. I don't know if this is entertaining but I find it to be kind of fun and to like try to do. So she does this and then I've seen people like go down like this with their hair to try to whoa. I don't know why I find this to be like really weird but like almost kind of satisfying. I'm going to try like this strand. It's a little bit bigger. I don't even know how this looks guys. Let me try with the other hand. Oh I'm going inwards. Maybe that's not the right way to do it but that looks good. Oh my gosh. Okay all right. Wow. This is I don't know. I'm kind of shocked that I was able to like do it. I might start curling my hair like this just because I like the way it looks. I like the way her hair looks all the time. It's not necessarily BT waves but they're almost like loose long curls. So I'm going to keep on doing this and see how it goes. I'm going to speed this up a little bit. So hopefully you guys will be entertained a little bit. Okay so I'm done with the first side and I think I did a pretty good job for my first time doing my hair with a straightener like curling it. It's better than the very first attempt I did on TikTok which I'll post on the screen if I can find it but it was like really really cringe-worthy. Maybe I'm starting up too high. I don't know but also too my hair in some spots it's still a little damp from the heat protectant so I'm thinking like like this strand isn't that curly because it was still a little wet so if I try again maybe it will be more curly. I don't really know. Maybe it's the type of hair straightener you use too but honestly I don't think it's pretty like bad especially for my first time like actually attempting and like watching the tutorials a little bit at least like how she does it. Yeah I'm gonna do the other side and I will come back when I'm done. You guys can give your opinions in the comments. Okay so this is what the hair looks like. I don't know how I feel about it. I definitely know the back side is a little less curly on the top like here which is fine because it looks like that when I curl it with my little wand but I will say I always love how the ends go like this so I don't know how I feel about it. It's definitely a different way and like they're a lot looser curls so I'll probably like lose them more. I will say too this side was easier because I'm right-handed instead of left-handed. Yeah I'm gonna brush through it not with a brush brush but like with my fingers just to give like give it some volume. This is pretty much what it looks like and I don't know. It's more like volume beachy wave vibes I think so I am probably gonna do this again depending on like what I want to do like how I want my curls to look. I don't know how I feel about it but I do like it because it gives more like the loose volumized look so I'm happy with it. I'll probably end up doing laundry so this is like a really really chill video. I know sorry if it's boring but this is just my life and obviously I couldn't vlog doing like my taxes because that would just be really really boring and has some sensitive information so I'll see you in the next clip. Okay so I just got done filming my two videos so I have one that's about reading and then the other one is about dance so if you guys are excited for those I don't know when you're seeing this it might be in between them it might be after them. Check them out if you haven't. I'm gonna put on my comfy clothes because I always like just change shirts so it's not like the same shirt in every video but yeah I think I'm gonna at least edit one of them and then maybe this vlog after dinner maybe I don't know again I'm really behind with the videos but it's okay. We're having a pasta tonight for dinner which is gonna be fun hopefully I'll remember to film that. Forgot to film the freaking Hooters wings I'm mad about that I always forget to film the food I think it's because I just get so hungry and I'm just like I'm gonna eat this and then I forget and then it's just too late. Okay I'm not forgetting to vlog the food so here we go. Sherry? Yes she's in her jammies but I got some pasta. We'll try not to eat everything because it's a little big. Let's cover the pasta. What is this? Bread. Oh our bread. Yum we're being Italian tonight and we have some Brussels sprouts too. Okay and this is what the meatballs and spaghetti look like. Sherry is just having meatballs because she's doing her low carb unlike me and Valerie. We're gonna sit here enjoy this. So as you guys saw I did laundry this is true day in the life fashion and then I edited a video so that'll be up on Tuesday it's the book one so pretty productive and everything today was just had a lot to do just like house stuff.
