 Hey all, what's up? My name is Snolly. Welcome to my channel if you guys are new. I'm so excited because during the month of December, I decided to try to vlog as much as possible. I know a lot of people do vlogmas and I've done it in the past years. I don't wanna put too much pressure on myself to vlog every single day. As of now, I'm thinking every other day, which is still pretty good considering that this year has not been my year for YouTube. I've just been in and out of funks. I feel like I have so much to vlog this December, especially because if you are new, I bought a house with my boyfriend here in Austin. And so we're doing like little rentals here and there. We're definitely trying to take it slow, but we also have like furniture coming in. So it's just exciting time. With all that being said, our house will probably be a mess like the full month of December. So just a disclaimer. Ryan Bell, our dining room table in the chairs yesterday. So boxes are everywhere. We had to pull the couch up because we were actually getting our, like the railing repaired. I wanted it to look a little bit more modern and just more simple. It had some like outdated molding that I did not love and I impulsively like removed it. Well, I didn't remove it, Ryan did, but I asked him to. And it was a very impulsive decision. Speaking of, we are going to go get a haircut. I literally woke up and I was just like, no, I can't do this hair any longer. Like I feel like it just keeps going. And I just want like just the dead ends kind of cut off. I wish my hair was like thicker all around because I think it would look better. But I saw videos of myself, like from the back with my hair just like all the way back. And it's just like a little too long. So I think I'm going to get a little off the ends and I'll probably just get a wash because like why not? I think it's like 10 bucks extra. When it comes to haircuts, I feel like if I don't get it done that day that I'm like thinking about it, it's not going to happen. So I just need to run with it because I hate getting my hair trimmed, but I know it like actually looks better when I do. And I don't know, I feel like I need to start taking like those Vagamore hair gummies. I have them. I'm just so bad at taking them every day, but I definitely need to start doing that because I just want my hair to be like thicker. Like it's long, it grows so fast, but I want my hair to like be super thick. Not even know why I already feel like a failure because it is the next day. And here's my haircut. Nothing too different, but honestly, when I curled it, I was like, oh my God, it's pretty short. Cause like obviously when it curls, it goes up a little bit, but it just like feels healthy, it looks healthy. It honestly already looks thicker and that's what I wanted. So I'm very happy with it. Curled it today. And today we are actually celebrating my birthday for the last time. My birthday was November 25th and it's already December, it's December 1st. And so this is the last time I swear you guys, but it is still sanitary season. Tonight we're doing a hibachi night in my backyard, which is super exciting because I mean, I guess I already had people over for like a little pre game for a day drinking thing. It's nice just girls and Hibachi chef is literally coming to my house to like cook for us and do the whole show in my backyard. This concept is so cool. So I'm definitely gonna vlog it. So I had to rent tables and chairs. I rented eight foot tables and it was actually just down the road for me. So it was nice and these chairs are actually really nice. I think I could have gotten the cheaper ones. I think there were a couple of dollars cheaper, but these are just stunning. I think they call them garden chairs. And then I got these like stretchy table cloths on Amazon. They were two for 20. And if I bought linens through this company, it would have been like $40 extra. And then I got these little fly things that spin like that so that when people are eating, hopefully the flies are not like all up in their food. So they can just turn them on if they want to. I got these, honestly, maybe Amazon, but these are being reused for my 25th birthday. The tables and chairs to rent them, I think it was like a little over $50, but we had to rent a truck to like transport them all. So I think that was like 30. It actually turned out looking really nice. I was debating whether or not to do like table mats, like red ones to go with like the kind of hibachi night. But I didn't, but I still think it looks really good. And look over here, Ryan put these twinkle lights up for me. We literally put them up today because I just did not feel like there was enough light out here because there's like this one little light. When it gets really dark, that is not enough. Obviously the hibachi guy is gonna have like fire. So it should be lit up a little bit, but I just wanted to make sure that there was a good amount of light. They have really nice weather today. It's not too cold, not too hot, so I can still dress for fall. And I feel like this is a cleanest, our house has looked in a while. I feel like I always say this, but I love like having friends over and like planning for them to come over because it forces me to get shit done and like actually clean my house for once. I got this garland from Trader Joe's and it's so pretty, especially on top of our fireplace. I'm gonna have Ryan light this before he goes. I told him he had to get out of the house because it's only girls tonight. Got these flowers from Trader Joe's and did like a DIY bouquet. I mean, it's not horrible, but definitely could be better. I took out all these cocktail glasses because I think I'm gonna try to do like margs. I bought marg mix, but we are low on tequila, so I might have Ryan just like go and grab some really quick. I literally cannot wait for the laundry room to be done. I bought stick and peel tile, paid peel and stick tile. I have not had the chance to put them on, but I wanna show you guys the sugar I got from Amazon. I went to this bar called group therapy. I guess it's a restaurant in a bar. They have this hibiscus, like sugar rim or hibiscus cocktail, but the sugar on it is like hibiscus sugar and it is so good. It's like addicting. So I got this, it's hibiscus lime sugar rumour and I'm gonna put this in a bowl so that we could like rumour drinks with this if they want to. I also don't really know exactly what the drinks are gonna be. So I think it would be fun to like just try a little bit of everything because I had a margarita mix. I got lemon drop mix so we can make lemon drop martinis. I also got yuzu juice. I've definitely seen like yuzu margaritas at Japanese restaurants. And I was trying to be a little bit on being with the hibachi thing. Perfect, you read my mind. I sent Ryan to get tequila. I was actually gonna text you to get that, okay. And it's like, do you think I can do the hell before I go? That was a hunger. 36 bucks too. Perfect. I feel like the house is good, isn't it? Mm-hmm. Do you like it in Ireland? I like it in Ireland, it's good. And I put up the refill in the front door. But it looks... What was it? I might not read. The refill in the front door looks a little low but I want the people to be accessible. Mm-hmm. But anyways... I told people to arrive here at six and it's 6.02, so... You mean 7? Yeah, my friends are kind of always late. And I am too, so it's okay. But that's why I said 6. Because the hibachi people are only coming at 6.45 and they're starting at 7. Andy's my first friend that came. Oh, okay. Hi! So excited. What are we gonna make? What is that? That's vodka. And I got lemon drop mixer. I don't know if you like lemon drop. I love lemon. I also got leechy stuff. Geez. Yeah. And margarita stuff is my favorite margarita stuff. Love this shit. I really had to go hunt for it, okay? Oh my god. And then... The yuzu? I know! What is that for? Well, I always hear of yuzu margaritas. I thought it was like fried shit, you know? Oh, and then I also got... Ooh. Wine. I forgot I got tequila. Hey, is tequila to go bad? No, no, no. I sent him to the store and he bought this, like, giant bottle. It's my part, like, in front of the house. I was, like, partying in a really quick interview where I was like... And then she wouldn't go back in. But I don't know, like, it was like a, like... Oh, she's all... She's all... She's all like... She's all like... She's all like... She's all like... She's all like... She's all like... She's all like... Right. Get ready. Get ready to get drunk. You're so loud. You're so loud. Yeah, she's so loud. Yeah, there's really no room. Four of you. Did we break the chairs? I know. I know. I'm not kidding you. Ready? Open your mouth and swallow. Swallow. Swallow. Swallow. Swallow. I'm so fucking... I'm sorry, last night. Last night? Last night. I can't have it again. I'm gonna... Oh, stop whining. You got a different sack. You got a different sack. When you kiss it, all of them take a shot. Really? Yes. I don't know. What am I catching? What is this? This is a vegetable. Okay. Ready? Ready? One, two, three, and... Open your mouth. She's catching. You want to take a shot? Remember. One, two, three, and swallow. I feel like I starved all day for this. Except for the... I had breakfast. I had breakfast and then... Guys, this is so good. I thought we'd go up in time. Sophie! Scram! It's Sunday and we've been having the most chill Sunday ever, which is so nice, but it is time to get back into, like, actually doing things, because there's so much on our to-do list. Today our number one priority is to get some curtains, and Ryan's gonna measure these two in our bedroom. And then should we get some downstairs? What do you think? There's not one wall. What wall? The one across the house. On the TV? Yeah. You want some in the dining room too, or no? We can always do that later. When we, like, pick out the chandelier and stuff and, like, finish the dining room. Kind of a little, like, longer. And also, like, taller. We should get ones that go to the ceiling or something. You know how curtains, like, have pleats in them? Pleats? Yeah. So we'll get, like, two panels. Is this taller? No. Probably taller. Like, up to the ceiling. What? Yeah, go higher. I wonder, like, all the way to the ceiling. No, I swear. No, I swear. It makes the bedroom look bigger. Why did Ryan just make fun of me for having the target apple on my phone? I think we're gonna get these at Target. And this is why I have it, because I want to check if it's stock. And it is. So I think we're gonna get five of these for this bedroom, because we need one, two, three, four. And then this window by my bed. I cleaned the kitchen earlier this morning, so everything's nice and shiny, but I need a little diet coke, because I'm losing energy right now, even though I had coffee today. Target is massive. I'm gonna see what they say about Sophie, because I don't think that dogs are allowed in here. But I guess we'll see. I've decided this Target is superior to women's in South Park, and they have, like, everything in stock. I feel like this section's always, like, really empty. They have a lot of options, but there's not a lot of quantity of each option. And I really like, like, the sheer ones. But if we close these, are they gonna be enough during the night? I love this material, too. You have to pick. Sophie, which one? Which one? Okay, we'll do the white. They're okay. Kinda huge hand, but... I think it's the one. I don't know. Yeah, but she didn't lick it twice. We actually just had a little snack at the tables that are here for my party. I just, like, took off the tablecloths and put it in the wash, but we are returning them tomorrow, because I don't think they were, like, open on the weekends. We got them on Friday, and we're returning them on Monday. The weather is just so nice outside that I literally just bought a hammock. It says it should be delivered this coming week, so I'll definitely update you guys on the vlogs. But it's, like, a really nice one with a wooden stand. And the fabric part is, like, this quilted material, so I feel like it's gonna be so comfy. And I used to love going around the hammocks in our apartment. Oh, and I say it was just, like, my favorite thing to just, like, literally lay there, and, like, Sophie would be in the hammock with me. And we have no outdoor furniture, so at least we'll have summer sit if we want to be outside. We do have our love seat glider that's upstairs, and we keep reading to sit out there. We put a fire pin and everything. Our balcony's on our front part of our house, so I guess we just really don't like think to sit out there, but we need to, because it's so nice with the fire on. But anyways, I wanted to show you guys the curtains that we got. So we ended up going with this white color. I did kind of want the taupe, but I feel like this will look really nice, too. This is just, like, a sheer one. It's not the blackout ones. And we got it in the, like, longer size. So that was 95, but 95 is, like, the whole length of one wall over here. So I'm actually going to have to drop these off to a tailor to get hemmed. I'm really curious how much it's going to cost me, because I have to do four of these. And I honestly need to do some research because I have no idea where to get them hemmed. I also decided that I do want to rotate the dining table. I said this in the last vlog, and we're just going to see what it looks like. I don't know what that shoe was. What was that shoe, guys? I feel like I just had my peccanita, like, turn it. Now we need to get a rug. I've also seen these, like, beautiful China cabinets. They're also called Hutch's on Facebook Marketplace. And, like, some are really expensive. Some are more affordable. I would absolutely love to, like, refinish one and, like, sand the stain off of one, because I think those are so beautiful. And it just, like, takes up more space. Or we could get, like, just kind of, like, some more storage here, because, like, the more storage, the better. So I'll probably hang the mirror up somewhere. And I may be, like, some pictures. I'm not really sure. I feel like I want to, like, actually hang up art. I kind of just want to wait till all the furniture is in the house and then we can, like, start thinking about that. I also want to start, like, actually shopping for home goods when we travel to places, specifically, like, out of the country, which I guess we haven't really traveled out of the country. That often just me and Ryan. But when we do start to, which will hopefully happen in the next couple of years, I feel like it would be really cool to, like, get, you know, a piece of art from wherever we go or, like, a face from wherever we go. So it's obviously later down the road and, like, we'll start collecting things. But it's definitely more sentimental to do it that way. So, but for now, we'll have lots of empty walls except for mirrors everywhere. I feel like I have, like, a ton of mirrors, which I'm not complaining about because I love them.
