Oh, there's Drew We went on a hike yesterday. Oh, there's my mom. Hi mom And I figured on her last day. We've just been enjoying time off camera, obviously But on her last day, you know, I would document a little bit of it So we're actually gonna head to Santa Monica, which is funny because we just did this whole thing at the very beginning of this vlog We had like a nice little morning routine went to the beach got coffee, etc That's basically what we're gonna do today. We might do a little bit of shopping. We'll see my mom is on the hunt for some Birkenstocks I'm wearing my fake thrifted Birkenstocks and my fur But she wants to find some real ones because she Used to have them in the 90s and I used to borrow them in like the early 2000s and stuff And she I don't know doesn't have that pair anymore, so she wants to get some new ones I might get some ugly slippers. We'll see we just had a nice lovely morning walk with miss way was and now we're had now so Come along. Oh, and it finally feels like fall. Oh my god. It finally feels like fall. I'm so excited Here is my slightly granola outfit of the day I'm wearing this brown shirt that I got at Primark when I was in the UK I got a cute little like half up sort of Phoebe buffet style hair style here And then my thrifted overalls Layla's dog toy and my thrifted fake Birks. Let's go Do you want to give us your OOTD? Uniqlo head to toe Maybe like sure and then the Nike vintage 77 oh Hi, mom. You want to give us your OOTD? Oh, do you know what that means? Yes, okay old Navy old Navy Macy's Macy's and Nike remember. What are those? Oh, they're cold too big Some type of comfortable walking shoes shoe warehouse thing the shoe warehouse there we go I was so excited to get my food That I ate the entire thing Shown it, but I got a waffle strawberries and bananas. This is what it would look like. So just pretend Morning, so it's actually the next day. I decided not to vlog after all I was really just enjoying being present and yeah, you don't need an explanation Obviously, you know, but I made myself a nice little cookie butter latte this morning after my hot girl walk and my breakfast I walked for like three miles around the neighborhood Chatted with my mom because she left this morning sadly and she's on her way back to Arizona So we chatted for a little bit and then I listened to my Laguna Beach podcast as always I'm running out of episodes though So I'm like kind of sad about it made myself a cookie butter latte literally just melted cookie butter into my espresso It's delicious, but my porosmia. I don't know these like Nespresso pods aren't really doing it anymore So anyways, I'm gonna jump in the shower. We have a busy day today. We have a filming day I think I need to do some editing later We're also getting our bivalent bivalent Vivalent boosters today. We're getting our flu shot as well So we have a lot going on and then a really really busy week So I'm just kind of preparing we've got our laundry like we didn't you know do our typical Sunday stuff yesterday because my mom was here So anyways, yeah, I'm along. Let's get our lives back together reset time Not too much later. We've managed to get ourselves ready. I did have to do a slicked back hair this morning It's not really how I wanted to do my hair today, but I'm running out of time I seriously have like an hour or so until our vaccine appointments and I want to make sure I've like got enough time And I'm not rushing too much and whatever. I'm just gonna wear my hair up I am like not a hair up kind of girl probably can't really tell by the vlogs But I've been trying to get more comfortable with my ears recently. Wow. Is that something I've never talked about online? I feel like I have probably I have a huge insecure. Let's just let's just rip the bandage I have a huge insecurity with my ears I have my entire life people used to In like kindergarten call me Dumbo because I had like big ears like an elephant or whatever And I've just had like a complex about it ever since my mom has the same ears her dad had the same ears It's just kind of like hereditary actually my grandma also had big ears So it's just part of like life, but have I never talked about that? I don't know So how I do my hair is usually down and if I wear it up It's like half up in a way that like strategically my ears are covered It's kind of uncomfy for me because I feel weird about my ears, but we're just gonna go with it Also, I have a very big head anyway This isn't like me just shitting on myself It's just me being honest about like random insecurities that probably no one else would notice but that like bothers me You know and all that to say it's pointless to like waste your time worrying about that kind of stuff The trash truck is also going by great Fantastic cuz like I don't know my ears are part of what makes me meet, you know and drink my ears are cute Anyways, wow that was a really That was an ADHD moment for sure me telling you that I'm running late and that I need to hurry up and film Because I didn't even have time to do my hair and then I went on a tangent about my ears. Anyways, okay sneak peek We're filming an Abercrombie video which actually by the time this video goes live I will have already posted that because it's going up like in two days I'm a little behind because of like family and being in town the last couple of weeks. I don't know why I keep talking I literally can't stop talking Literally shut up. Okay. Goodbye talk later Yeah Just like that made it back home from our booster appointments were Boosted and ready to go and she jabbed us good, you know, it was real efficient. It's in there That's for sure, but I think I'm gonna do I don't know if this is extra, but I also do not care is The day that you're seeing this video is actually and I can't believe I haven't addressed it yet in this video so far But the day you are watching this is the day I can throw up of excitement. It's the day that midnight Taylor Swift's So actually. Oh my god the day that you are watching this. I have already heard it Yeah, Laila's crying. That's how excited she is. So I actually Ordered a sweater on Amazon that is midnight inspired. I'll show you what it looks like here. It is It's so cute. I can't believe I'm literally about to listen to another Taylor Swift album like Anyways, Drew and I were just talking on the way back and I told him, you know I want to take like a midnight's photo and he was like You haven't even been talking about that that much lately and I'm like, I know we've been so busy He's like, what how are you preparing? What are you gonna do? And I'm like silently sit in the dark and like rock back and forth and just listen to it and be like I mean, that's it. I don't we don't have a single yet. I have no idea what I'm what I'm expecting I'm so ready. Oh, I literally have full body chills. Anyways, so I think I'm gonna like now that um I'm done with my little bit of filming from earlier. I think I might do my hair Get change and take like a fun little midnight's photo because why not? I'm like the equivalent of a disney adult, but I'm a Taylor Swift adult and I simply Do not care. I'm gonna go see why my dog is crying. Hi Hi, sweet girl. Are you okay? Are you okay? You just wanted me to pet you. We were gone 30 minutes Oh, what a good girl best girl in the world. Okay. It's a little while later. Did my hair got my little outfit on I'm gonna take my photo because it makes me happy and brings me joy and then we're gonna make some lunch because It's butternut squash freaking mac and cheese time. So we're gonna do it Here's the outfit details by the way. The sweater is from amazon. I'm not gonna lie But it was exactly what I was looking for this nightgown is actually thrifted This belt is thrifted and these boots are from target Think we got it. All right. It's lunch time. I'm heating up my butternut squash mac and cheese from Trader Joe's We also went what the hell is all over this? We went to arrow on over the weekend when my mom was here and we got these vego bears vego bears It says foamy gummy bears. I don't know why it's called that but they're actually really good But like I think they're just expensive vegan gummy bears and these flavor are cherry and raspberry I guess they are kind of foamy looking But they just taste normal and they're really good Yeah, and then we also got the brand called rind We got the apple chips, which are good I've also had the pack that has like apple pear and strawberry that one was okay But we got one that had apple peach and persimmon and that one was really good And these apple chips are good too in case you're interested in a snack update Our new pastime has been going to arrow on and buying expensive snacks and being like is this worth the hype? I can't believe the time has come to have my first butternut squash mac and cheese You already have one Did you boot me with your chopsticks? Oh, what my god here she is. This is a monumental day. I mean it's probably been a year It's steaming up the lens. It is steaming up the lens Here she is In her microwave glory. In case you're new here This is it is the Trader Joe's butternut squash mac and cheese which sounds weird, but oh Is it good? We probably got it for the first time about like four years ago Let me move chair first bite of the season. This better be good because my pyrosmia, you know I have pyrosmia in case you didn't know which is like an after-effect of kovib where you Everything tastes and smells taste like shit great Good good good Spicy water today is Waterloo watermelon Love to see it. Cheers What a perfect day. All right just finished my lunch. It was delicious Drew and I actually have seen some TikToks of people making that recipe um like from scratch And so we're also gonna try that at some point. I'll try to link the TikTok if I can remember but um Yeah delicious How are you doing? Justine snacks by the way is the TikTok. We're gonna try that maybe later. Um I'm also really feeling impulsive like I want to dye my hair because I'm gonna be honest I it's nothing against the people who did my hair last or anything like that But I hate the color of my hair right now and even my mom was like your hair color is not best I was like, you know, she was like you've had better hair colors I think just because it's like dark on the top and then it's hard to tell on camera, but in person It's very like they're still red in it at the bottom. I have three different shades of blonde. It's like Dark blonde or dirty blonde or brown or whatever and then like blonde ish like golden and then it's like red And then like underneath it's really dark and like when I put it up It's like a bunch of different colors and I'm just like over it. I think I might do dark again We'll see but first we're gonna take the outside. I decided, you know what? I had my vaccine I'll probably be feeling tired soon. I got a bunch of work done today It's like 2 p.m. Which is like prime nap time to be honest And I'm gonna like take it easy, you know, I'm gonna take it slow So I got my Kindle. I am going to get back into my book and I thought I'd give like a quick little Book review update. I um have nothing against Like true classic literature or like really thought-provoking stuff. I've read some of it I used to read a ton growing up and right now where I'm at in my life and just with the way the world is And everything I just want my mind to feel numb. Like I don't I want to read like smut or like Corny shit. That's just me being honest. So that's I mean, no offense. No offense to miss Colleen Hoover. Colleen Hoover She is like the tiktok queen. We love her for it Um, but I sometimes just read those books because I can speed through them really quickly and They're just very easy to read. I'm also joined by somebody who just woke up Good morning Hi Hi But anyways, um before I get into the Colleen Hoover book I did finish the sequel to the last book that I was talking about which was called it happened one summer And the sequel is called hook line and sinker. I I liked it. I heard a lot of people say they liked the sequel better. I found I found the men in those books annoying. I'm so sorry. I found the men to be like Kind of annoying. I don't know. Like it was like the author is very like, oh, he's a big burly man And he's so burly and like so strong and like she's just tiny little girl. He's just big strong man And like, I don't know. It just some of it was really cringe like really really cringe But I did enjoy the books overall enjoyed like the world of west for I won't spoil anything But I really I like I enjoyed them But there were times where I I literally physically was rolling my eyes And that's not because I'm like better than the author or anything like that. It was just the story was like a little cheesy But anyways, then I read ugly love by Colleen Hoover. I don't know again. It was just kind of okay I didn't really like the way that the girl was being treated in that book. Am I being a buzzkill? I'm sorry. I'm sure some people will agree with me I still liked reading them and now I'm reading reminders of him I downloaded like four books before I went to the uk because I thought I was gonna read on the plane But I ended up just like editing and watching shows and stuff So didn't get much reading done some like trying to work through those So I'm like getting through those four books that I have on my kindle and reminders of him is one of them It was a recommended book and I don't think I like the main character. Is that bad to say? I sound like I'm just shitting on all these books. I don't know sometimes. I think like I get disappointed and overhyped things I think that's normal, but this book in particular. I don't like the main character I find her very unlikable and I'm not going to spoil anything, but she's done this like horrendous thing I don't know. I haven't gotten that far. I'm only 112 pages in and we're all human and everything But I'm just like I do like it. It's like juicy, but I find myself like being annoyed with the main character Anyways, that's my mini book review that nobody asked for. I'm like really struggling with this vlog today Like I feel like I when I take breaks from vlogging for like a week or two I don't know how to vlog anymore Like I feel very rusty and I feel like the things that I'm saying are so pointless And that no one cares and like why am I even talking about this? I should just turn off the camera So bear with me while I get back into it. Also. Sorry if you've been able to hear my fan That's going in my bedroom this entire time. We don't have a ceiling fan So that's our replacement who is giving himself a bath now and now I'm going to tuck into this book and hopefully I'll like it a little bit more by the end of it. Don't spoil anything, but let me know if it gets better Okay, we'll chat soon
