 It's my channel, I'm starting today's vlog on September 3rd at 6.18, yeah, I'm currently, I just uploaded a video yesterday as unlisted, but today I'm actually working on the thumbnail and just the other stuff that goes on with the video, I got to send it to this hair company so they can approve it though, I was supposed to have this done like last week, but I honestly really did not like the wig and I was kind of debating on if I should do it or not, but the only reason why I didn't like the wig, I explained it in that video is it was too small, like for my head, so it was like a real struggle, so I'm definitely going to be selling that, but that was the only thing that I didn't like about the hair, it was literally like the wig was just too freaking small, so I'm working on my thumbnail right now, I was trying to include pictures of everything kind of that I was doing in this vlog, and it's super hard to do so, so yeah, if you care to watch me try to create a thumbnail, here it is, I'm going to do keeping up with Akira Jenae for this one, bring this down to about 200, okay, up with Akira Jenae, should I do keeping up with Akira Jenae or should I just do vlog, because the actual video has this in it, so I should probably do vlog, what you think, I'm going to do vlog, I'm just going to do vlog, and I'm hungry, I haven't ate since like 10 this morning, so I'm about to go to Chick-fil-A, of course, and they also give you colors to select from, so I usually just go through them and see which one kind of pops out at me, okay, so I like this one, and I kind of, I'm digging the green, I feel like it's an eye catcher, and they got the green from this right here, so I'm going to stick with the green. Okay, so then it'll pop up like this, and from here I will airdrop this to my phone, and then I will finish the rest of the editing on my phone, so just got it, and then for my phone I go to PixArt, if you care, if you don't care you can skip this part of the video, if you wonder how I do things, or how most YouTubers do things, I open it, and then I go to Fit, I fit it to the YouTube ratio, if not then it will not fit, then I go to Border, put the outer border on zero, I'll still change the color, you can make your own color, and then it'll save right here, so this is the pink that I use around my videos every single video on my thumbnail, and then I move this one to three, push apply, boom, go back to Fit ratio, go to YouTube, and then you see it's some white around the corners, so then I will use my same pink, and then there we go, so yeah this is the now I'm going to use, I don't think I want to brighten up this picture, but I should have did it like outside of this app because I don't really need to brighten up everything else, so yeah this is my thumbnail, so then I'm just going to save it, close, and then I'm going to go to YouTube, to the draft, and then we're going to switch out, so YouTube already picks a few thumbnails for you, but obviously not using the one that we just used, and select, and there you go, I do have to finish the bio on this, so I'm going to do that off camera, and I'm about to email this YouTube link to the hair company so they can approve it, pay me, and then I will be posting this probably tomorrow hopefully, I do have to bleach my hair as you can see, this is my, this is my dilemma that's going on, my hair, this is my real hair right here, I bleached my real hair so freaking bright, I didn't realize that, and put the light on it, and I'm like, mmm so this hair, I only bleached it once, and this is what it lifted to, I originally bought some hair from Beauty Forever hair, and baby when I tell you it fried, like they, I've had hair from them before, they sent me hair, but literally the bundles fried, I'm sorry for the lighting, but these were the bundles that I got from them, the one that's fried is in my bathroom, my guest bathroom, but anyways, these lifted pretty freaking light on one, so obviously you can see the difference in color, this is one bleaching, and then this is one bleaching, this hair is a hell of a lot better, but I needed this color, and I had to get this hair at 8 a.m., got off work at 7, picked this hair up at 8, my appointment was at 1.30, I literally was bleaching hair until 11.30, went to sleep for a good hour, woke up, and then got my hair done, so I'm gonna just bleach it while it's in my head, I'm gonna do a strand test tonight, and then I'm just gonna do the whole bleaching process tomorrow, and yeah I'm gonna talk to y'all when I get back, because this clip is pretty long, so I'm gonna go get Chick Chick, and kind of map out the rest of my few days, send this off to this hair company, and you know, get it going. Listen to all this in my trash can, I spilled the smoothie over here yesterday, and I just got that cup, and they gave me two bags for no reason, I spilled my fries, really I just need to throw out random stuff. I just got back to the house, my stuff is coming down. I just brunk in the first load of groceries, my mama is slow, I don't know what she's waiting on, but this is the first load, and I'm about to bring this little cart thing out here. I'll show you where I live. Y'all always ask me where I get this from, literally just typing cart, Walmart, Target, office supply stores, everybody got them, like they be everywhere, and I also had it from when I first moved in, I said it numerous times, so they're everywhere. Let me drop this stuff here. Oh my goodness. I'm gonna do a strand test, because, yeah, I'm gonna do the strand test, I'm just gonna do it right here in the front. I'm gonna separate my little hair. This is the color that I'm trying to live this freaking hair to, and it's showing up really like ginger kind of to me, like, I don't know, it's giving definitely fall vibes, but I need it to be this color, and I forgot I freaking bleached my hair this freaking light, so I'm just gonna move this bag. First I'm gonna use this bleach, the little bitty pack, because, like I said, I'm just doing a strand test, so I'm about to use just a little bit to do the strand test. And then I'm using Forty Body Developer. The rest is left in here, and I'm about to mix it up real quick. I'm about to cart and ride once I actually do up my glam room. It'll probably be the next project I work on, because I already know how I want to do it, I just haven't bought anything. So I'm about to place this, and hopefully my dirty mini-ons will be almost up. Actually, I don't know what I want to do, but I know what I want to do with this room. I know I'm gonna put up pictures on this wall of me, like, big, huge pictures, but I'm like, do I want to do, I don't know, I don't want to do a grass wall because it's like, everybody got that, but I don't know. Hold on, let me go get my hammer. Just a little, I'm probably gonna keep this in for like an hour, hour and a half. You can count it to you. You can tell this is lighter, so I'm just gonna leave it in for like, you know. I'm looking, because the bleach is strong to you. And girl, this 26 inches is just too much. So I did this side first, this side, this side, then this side. So I'm about to take this down, and kinda look at it. I set my timer for an hour, but I set my timer for an hour after I had already done this whole side. So I got 41 minutes left. Got my color to match my real hair. I had to wash it again because the bleach, it was like still stuck at the top. So it was like, barking at the damn door. Anyways, I believe I bleached it perfectly to match my real hair to my real hair up here. So yeah, I'm cooking pasta. Let me turn this vent off so you can hear me. I haven't had pasta in probably a month, and I used to eat it like all the time. My noodles are about to overcook because I'm not trying to blow dry my freaking hair. So as you know, I've already cooked a few times in the last vlog. So those are the panini noodles, and then this is the chicken. This one is really thick, so it's gonna take a minute. That one is just about done because I don't want to overcook this. So this one is done. I'm about to take that one out. So I'm about to drain this, and then press. Cut it out. So I'm about to drain this, and then I'm about to do the heavy whipping cream. What am I supposed to do right here? This one I used from Kroger's, so I forgot to buy some cheese. You know, this is for both mozzarella. I don't have any Parmesan cheese. So, yeah. Okay, so hey. Today is a new day. It is today, Sunday, actually. I don't mind my hair. I get it done. I have to go tomorrow, but today it's gonna be eventful, maybe. I just hit my scap. I have to go to Sephora. I literally just want the Fenty lip gloss. I have a gift card, and I have money left over on a gift card, so I'm just gonna buy the lip gloss because I need some. I really love it. I also may or may not get an iPad today. If y'all know that TikTok, they'd be like, what's that? What he say? Like, I know why I'm lost in life, or I cracked the code. It's because I don't have an iPad. So, yeah, that's how I feel. But I've just been seeing them while I'm on TikTok, and I'm like, I want one. And I work at the hospital and stuff, and literally everybody always been there. I pass tablets and stuff like that, and it's like, I could literally be, you know, editing on downtime and stuff like that, but it's obviously a nice shift. We do have a lot of downtime most of the time. So it's like, I can be catching up on, you know, content, just all kinds of stuff. So I'm gonna go look at a few iPads today at different places. Hopefully they have some in stock. I don't really want to wait. I want, like, the iPad physically in my hand today. It's kind of gloomy today. It's been raining earlier this morning. So that's really all I have planned. It's not really an eventful day. I do plan on going to the gym either if it's Planet Fitness or my little at-home rigged-up gym. Let me show y'all. I don't know if I showed y'all before, but if I can't ever make it to the gym, this is what I use. I bought this from Walmart, actually. It went viral on TikTok when everybody was getting it, and it was like 40-something dollars. So obviously it came with the bar. It came with the 15 pounds. It came with whatever this one is over here. Five, and I think it came with 10. So I use that. I absolutely love to do hip thrusts. That's why I got that because I can really, really, really feel hip thrusts. So like I said, I'm gonna go to Sephora. Probably just try to get the fancy lip gloss. Every time I go in there, it's always something else that I need. This is the one that I already have. As you can see, it's out. And yes, it's out because I cannot get this out. I think I can say I have a love-hate relationship with Fenty on her lip gloss. Literally, I love the shine. I love the consistency. I love everything about it. The only thing that I do not love is this freaking container. Like, Rihanna, can we get a squeeze tube or something? Because this is $20. With Tex, this is dang near $20. Look at all this product I still got. So at one point I did flip it upside down and most of it kind of came down, but I forgot and had it like this this whole time. But yeah, I need like a squeeze tube or a longer stick or something because I can't do it no more. And I think for the rest of... Okay, hold on. Let's keep lighting. I think for the rest of the day, I'm probably just want to clean up. I'm probably like, damn, like, you always clean it. Yes, I'm always cleaning. I don't care. I literally work three to four days to our shifts in a row and I literally come home sleep. And then like, I make a mess sometimes. I'm cleaning it up, whatever. And I also been getting like packages in. I've been grocery shopping yesterday. So it's like still kind of messy. So I'm not going to show me clean because I feel like at this point it's just repetitive. But yeah, this is like all new sheen clothes and stuff right here. That's still like birthday stuff that I got put up. My bed looks a mess because I actually about to wash all my sheets and stuff. But yeah, I'm not going to show y'all the other like the guest rooms and stuff because I've had wig reviews. I've been bleaching this here and stuff all last night as y'all saw. And it looks a mess. So since it's Sunday, I think I'm just going to do, you know, like getting ready for the week, prepping for the week, stuff like that. And yeah, I'm not going to record myself cleaning like I did. But I think I'm going to go ahead. I just ate pasta. It was literally 12 when I got up. Well, like got up after beer. So I'm like, I'm not about to cook breakfast right now. So I just want about the pasta that I cooked last night. I'm about to go. Since AT&T comes first, I'm going to go to AT&T and then Sephora. And I think I'm just going to come back. It depends on how the weather is. Like if it's raining and stuff, I'm probably not going to give back out and go to the gym. I'm just going to be honest. I hate driving in the rain. So yeah, that's all I got planned for today. I'll get back with y'all whenever I see y'all. Okay. Okay. So I decided to wear my dog mom hats. I changed my pirates since I'm wearing like the pink going on. And then my watch pink. I got this just in case I want to tie my hair up. It's pink. And I don't know if I'm going to wear these. I'm probably going to wear my... He's over here. It's probably going to wear these just because they're a little bit more comfortable, I would say. And I put on my new little... Ouch. It kind of hurts. My new ankle. This is from Sheehan. Super freaking cute. I think it's going to be like $2. So I always get my own ankle and stuff from Sheehan because they're just so affordable. And they usually last a pretty long while. Like I usually get some from Sheehan and I get some from the beauty supply store. But the ones from... Watch out, boy. The ones from the beauty supply store, they usually break on me fairly quickly. Okay. All right. So first stop is going to be AT&T. Trying to make sure I got everything I need. I just switched parses for today. I'm about to lock Prince up because it was muddy outside today and if I just leave him out, I'm going to be on my bed. I got actually, I'm about to wash him. So it doesn't even matter. Let me put this blanket over the pillows that I actually put my head on because his paws may be dirty. And I know he going to get up on his knees. Oops. I'm running in because I don't know about y'all but when I go to stores, I'd be trying to be in and out and I don't really be thinking about recording or anything. I'd be trying to get what I get and get out. Especially if it's like crowded and for whatever reason, the mall was slightly crowded today on a Sunday. So, yeah, that's that. But my new glass. Okay. I just want the starbies. Awesome. Get the only thing that I get from Starbucks. I'm about to, I parked over here because I'm trying to figure out if there's anything else that I need to do while I'm on this side of town already. Right now, I just thought about, I need to go to Five Below to see if they have an iPhone 11 Pro Max privacy screen because that's the kind of iPhone I have and I had bought one but mine is, the one I bought is for the 11 Pro or I don't know, it's not for the Pro Max. So, it was just for like the standard one. And I got it in my trunk, but I got it like a month or so ago and I don't have the receipt but if they have one, then I'll just be needing to exchange. So, I'll probably go to Five Below since I'm over here. And I'm trying to think, like that's all I need. I also went to Victoria's Secret. I think I recorded a little clip of that. I just got some more panties. I don't know if I explained to y'all that Prince has been, he's been eating and tearing into my freaking panties. And I had to throw two away because like it was like dead ass hose in them. My other ones is kind of like on the little cuff part in the middle. It's kind of like little teeth bites. So, I'm saving them for right now but I just went and got the seven, seven pair for $35. So, yeah, that's it. I'm not gonna show my panties on camera, but I got, when I go, I get a variety. Like I get the, I get a few pair of thongs and then I get like the cheek. What is it? Hipster cheeky and just a little bit of everything. There's like only one style that I don't get and it's like the full on panties. I have like two or three of those. I use those for period panties but anyways, Tim, I don't care. I'm about to sit here and kind of take a boomerang. I've been trying to get like a cute little boomerang. So, obviously, Instagram will see this first. And also my hair is not doing it. So, I'm on here looking crazy. I probably think, I don't know how to do my hair baby. I'm just gonna do tomorrow work with me, okay? I like that. Don't like it. And I got like two little weird bumps under my chin. And I'm mad I should have booked my hair appointment for today instead of tomorrow but whatever. Okay, so hey, today's Labor Day. Happy Labor Day. I'm about to go get my hair done again. I'm just about to get curled because this is, I can't curl 26 inches by myself. I can but I would rather not. And I would do like one curls and I want my curls to actually last a little bit longer and plus my real hair is out. And it's just something about the hairstylist that can get my hair real flat and I can't. So, that's what I'm about to go. My appointment is at 2.45. It says I'm gonna get there at 2.32. 2.32, got in! And yeah, I just left the gas station to get changed because I can't get $45 at the ATM. So, yeah, I'm about to go. I've never been to this girl before. So, I'm not gonna record because, oh shit, girl I'm gonna drop. I'm not gonna record because, like I said, I've never been to her. I don't know her. So, I will show y'all the before of my hair. I mean after my hair. Okay, so I forgot to record when I was in the car. Sorry! But my hair is curled. I love loose curls. So, I'm just going to be you know, curling it and stuff. So, I like that it's like light on the outside and then it kind of goes into like an ombre. So, super cute. Um, literally, hot as hell outside. Like, literally then started sweating like I've been working out. Girl! What is going on? So, I put my shirt up. This is like the shirt. This is what I would wear to the gym. Like, not tied up, obviously, but like this is like my gym attire when I don't want to wear like a matching set. But anyways, it's hot. So, I would lift this up and plus my belly button pierced and it's still fairly new. And sometimes like I'll hit it and stuff. So, I feel like if it's like this it kind of, it can kind of air out. That's the dang logo. I used to put like a bandage over it and gauze, but that kind of slowed down the healing process I feel like because it would like it would make it really like what is the word I'm looking for? I don't know, but without it it literally like it can scab up like it needs to and so like it can heal. So anyways, yeah. This is my hair. She said she couldn't really get it to like curl. So, it's fine with me. It's just this one like it's not that curled, but everything else is good. She literally did my middle part good. I got a widow's peak and for whatever reason some people cannot part my hair right when I got a widow's peak. I'm like, it's not that hard. If anything is easier because it kind of like all the hair falls on this side but yeah anyway, that's my little rent. Literally did a good job. Super cute. And yeah, that's it. So I'm about to take prints. We're about to go to my dad's house and I'm about to go season all the meat. My dad gonna say something. I'm about to put Kira up on the little small grill. Oh, not me. I'm not about to be barbecuing enough. No, your thoughts. So anyways, I'm about to go. I was going to take some of my air fryer over there because I kind of wanted to bake potato but I kind of don't want it anymore. So yeah. I don't think I have to bring anything as far as she told me. I think she got enough barbecue sauce. Oh, just got the chills. I could bring my rib rub because I know they don't got that. I'm going to bring my slapty mama I barely even got some. So I should have bought some more of that. Liquid smoke. Since we're using barbecuing on the grill, I don't need liquid smoke. I use liquid smoke for when I'm making things in the oven to give it that obviously barbecue smoky flavor. I think she said they got the Larry seasoning. I'm not sure but I'm about to bring my garlic salt and I'm just going to bring this Larry seasoning anyway. So I'm bringing four different seasonings. I should do a little paprika, huh? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So these are all the seasonings I'm about to take to my dad's. They need to expand their seasonings because they don't be using all the good stuff that I be using. So this is what I'm going to take. Princess is ready to go outside and go to Granny's house in Paw Paw Hill. So that's what we about to do. I'll get it y'all when I get it's over there and kind of show y'all me cook. Oh, oh, oh, I'm making the beans. So I need, oh, I hope my onion and bell pepper is still good. So I need my onion and my bell pepper. Nothing is over here. Okay, so got the goods that I'm taking. Roostle turkey something. He's so sleepy. You want to say hey to the camera? Say hey. Chest pain. Hey. Nope. All right. I just had to chase Prince ass across the whole entire damn neighborhood. Excuse me for my language but I am pissed. I put in a video of my dad diving down to get him y'all. My voice is gone. Horse. I'm going to take some cough medicine tonight because my throat is gone. Right now he's locked up in the bathroom because he's back. I'm going to charge my phone. Looks like she know when a camera on her. Hey, say no. The what? I'm trying to get him. I'm serious. He's zoom in. She looking right at it too. Oh, he get some gas. Y'all.
