 Shouldn't have done damage, but I did do damage with yourself Hello, you guys welcome to another video It is currently 2 11 and I literally just like already I put some makeup on I got dressed because I was literally like a hermit this morning Editing for hours because I just wanted to get my work done got all my hermit editing done this morning So it's like a weight lift it off my shoulders. Um, and yeah So I'm just about to film like a sit-down video that's actually going up this week So not the week that you're watching this but the videos already up That makes sense because I was supposed to film this last week But I just didn't get the chance to so I got to get that filmed and then I'm just filming this vlog today And then I got to go potentially get some ingredients for dinner And then I want to go shopping with Madison because she's graduating this year my little sister's graduating this year you guys It's crazy Like I can't imagine her not being in high school like it's so freaking weird If you guys have any younger siblings and it's like they're just growing up so fast. It's it's weird Like it's so weird. We're three years apart. So it's not like that big of an age gap So yeah, so going shopping with her later the malls close at seven So we got to make it there before seven and it's already two and I got a bit of shit to do So I should get filming because I got to film this video. But yeah, you guys I did my nails Okay, like I read it them this weekend as you can see I did like a cute flower on this hand Okay, and then I attempted to do a cute flower on this hand like an orange one And then it ended up like a literal blob because I was painting with my left hand which I'm not talented in doing So it ended up like a literal blob and then it just fell off So I think I'm gonna get Madison to like help me redo that flower because it's actually does look really cute I'm really actually trying to keep up with my nails. Also. I made this cute ass ring over the weekend If you guys can see I don't know. I just love it. It's just so cute I've got like a whole bunch of beads on the weekend I want to make more so maybe I'll like teach you guys how to make them. Oh, but yeah, I'm gonna have a filming because Let's go. Okay you guys change your plans We're actually going to the grocery store first just because I just want to get that over with so that my dad's not Waiting to make dinner because he needs ingredients Joel is driving my car because he finally got put on my insurance I'm not always the one driving us around so I was like, you know what you should get added onto the car So that when you're driving that I can vlog, you know what I mean? It's so weird seeing you driving my car like it's so weird being in the passenger seat of my car But it's kind of great All right you guys so we just got to the mall It's currently 430 Madison needs to look for a what do you need to look for I need to look for a commencement dress I need to look for a grad mass dress. I need to look for earrings bracelets rings Well rings and stuff is gonna be easy because you're gonna be cheap ones. I'm gonna buy I'm not gonna buy like but yeah I need to look for a dress for her when they go and take their pictures and stuff I need to look for a dress not fancy just like a cute fun summer dress because I don't really have much in that department So that's what I need to get if I could find anything but forever 21 is back in town Did you know that they want to reopen reopen forever 21 where it's in this mall. Let's go Let's go forever 21 used to be in Canada And then they go went bankrupt and they left and they were literally here forever though Like I don't remember they're never being forever 21's here and they're finally back I didn't expect them to come back So it's kind of like very unexpected because there was like no warning We're just at the mall and we're like holy shit forever 21 is back So that's actually good because I feel like they'll have a lot of selection there because they're usually good with like Summer dresses maybe they'll have like earrings and shit. Yeah, they'll have stuff there like forever 21's always always comes in clutch Okay, let's go because we're wasting time. Yeah, we literally the mall closes in two and a half hours. So Actually I think I'm gonna get them because I've been looking for a cute pair of jeans short And I think that these are it like they're the perfect length They're kind of like they're which I really like and I really like to watch on them as well So yeah, I think I'm gonna do it It is seven o'clock and we made it out right on time There was a little moment in between where Madison was like it was literally like 5 30 and Madison was like they close at six So we had a bad makeup and then we were like rushing for half an hour And then I'm like I really don't think they close at six so I searched well I looked and then it said six. I was like, there's no way so I searched it up again Is it seven and then we asked like an employee and they said seven so I'm like, thank God We needed that extra hour because we actually did well you pretty much got everything you needed I got clutch earrings rings necklace commencement outfit grad mask outfit if it looks good I still need to find a shirt for commencement though because I'm wearing like a pants suit and a shirt I need to figure out what shoes I'm wearing you got a lot. I got a lot too. I'm like a ticket to shopping I'll show you guys Like a little tradition that we both have never we come to this mall. They have like a yoga cruise I don't know if you guys know what this is frozen yogurt and they got rid of it They had it in the mall and like cook with them now that you know where that is But and they shut it down but every time we come here we get this and I got the non-dairy version It's still so good and with cookie dough on top You just have to happen every time we come together. Let's go bachelor tonight. Cheers I'm literally You guys this is literally the best like recipe ever so basically it's just pasta like Rotini I think it's called with tomatoes arugula and chickpeas and Pesto as a sauce and let me tell you it's literally the best thing ever like it's tastes like heaven My dad made it. Yeah, I'm gonna get but it's so good She literally puts her paw on me constantly. Oh my god, you're so cute like but she's not gonna like this like just not gonna My god, like she's looking me like I love you so much. I can't resist Hey guys, so it is the next day I'm sorry It's currently like four o'clock right now. So the video that I said that I was going to film yesterday I just filmed today like just now like I just finished filming it just because I just didn't have time to do it yesterday I was just like go go go we went to the mall and then I didn't have time afterwards So it's like whatever but anyways to some of my day. I didn't really do much I watched Portugal's soccer game if you guys didn't know I'm Portuguese with a little bit of Brazilian So we watched the game they want three zero so if you guys are keeping up with the soccer games Let me know who you guys his team is and then I just worked like the whole day And then I just filmed so really nothing interesting unless you guys wanted to see a montage of me literally just sitting at my computer But it's probably not interesting. So we went shopping yesterday. I did do some damage Unfortunately shouldn't have done damage, but I did do damage. I need to show you guys a haul obviously I'm literally wearing the shirt that I got but I did get some cute stuff I went to the mall to get like a dress, but I came back with too much shit, which is fine So I'm gonna show you guys You're welcome POV me moving my mirror to get better lighting for my little mirror Meers are actually like actually really heavy So here's the dress that I got for Madison's grad thing to take pictures with her in her with I'm obsessed with the green And I love just how flowy it is It's like literally the perfect summer dress and like I'm not just gonna wear this one So I can reuse this for any summer day. I'm in love with this. It was like $30 from forever 21 So really good. Okay. Now here comes the spice here comes the added spice. Okay, I step back Okay, we got the bulky ass shoes and at first I wasn't sure about them, but now I'm like really digging I know it's a lot of contrast to the dress, but I think it like makes a statement I don't know. Let me know what you guys think out below, but I think I'm gonna wear regardless because I really like it My god, I actually really like them. Okay, so I'm just covering my nipples here because this is kind of see-through So I'm gonna have to wear some sort of padding underneath here But this is just like a little bra let as you can see it has like ruches on the bottom Which is so freaking cute, but it's just so cute Just like a tank top to throw on and then the shorts you guys they're actually really freaking cute So yeah, I finally found like a nice ass pair of jeans shorts and they're like half the price that ritzia's were So these ones are worth $50 from dynamite and then this top is from forever 21 Okay, so this is the next type of top I got this from sirens. It's a really random store in my mall But yeah, this is like amazing quality like this is literally the quality that I would get like at a ritzia Like it's such good quality. I actually got a size medium in this because a small just looked way too small So I wanted it to be like a little longer so I can wear it like as a little tank top and it's like brown It's so freaking cute, right? So these shorts are the next thing that I got they're from H&M and they're just they're an extra small But they're super long, but I kind of like that about them These are perfect for just lounging around the house in the summer putting them on for just like who knows what Something random. Okay, so here's the last thing I got. These are from H&M as well. Okay Let's just take a moment to appreciate how cute these are. They're so comfortable and they're just I don't Know the flair. I wear these with like some cute air forces. Oh my god. They're so freaking cute. I love the flair I love it. Oh my goodness. It's out of whack Today it was raining when I woke up and then it was sunny and then it was raining and sunny and then now it's like windy and raining again Good news is is the weather is looking bright like I said, it's gonna be sunny So it can't complain cannot complain and my sister's grad is this Friday, so it's currently Tuesday today So it's gonna be sunny for her grad which is amazing because if it rained that would have sucked so bad But the rain is holding off so we're all Gucci and you also wouldn't really want it to be like too hot either because you wouldn't Want to be sweating in your dress out be kind of gross So I feel like it might be just the perfect temperature for them So I'm so happy is I put on these shorts from H&M because they're just so comfortable. This is my little house chillin fit right now I'm actually really hungry right now, so I think I'm gonna make something for dinner It's like five o'clock. She really likes to be like by the window here She likes to look out of it and I open like my screen for her so she likes the fresh air So I know I mentioned making like rings earlier, so I'm gonna show you guys the beads that I got I got yellow blue pink purple and green how freakin you are these colors. I'm obsessed So I definitely want to make more rings this one kind of didn't turn out the best But I'll learn as I go I will link the tick tock like the tutorial that I learned to make this ring for you guys if you guys Want to learn how to make it? I'm not going to even try to show you Um, so I'll put the link down below if you guys want to match me for reference I'm just gonna give you guys a bead size that I used so this is like the bead size and everything So take a screenshot of this if you guys want to make them and then I'll get the wire So this is the wire that I used and here if you want to take a screenshot of this as well Okay, guys, so it is currently 1035 and And I just wanted to come on here and tell you guys before I like get ready for bed and everything that I put You know, I can like set limits for your apps like how much time you spend on them So if you guys want to do it You basically just go under settings you go under screen time and then you go see all activity And then you can do under there I put 30 minutes a day And the reason I did that is because I just realized that like in my monthly goals that I wrote down I draw it down that I wanted to read two books this month and I haven't even read a full book yet So I realized that I need to cut back on my social media I need to cut back on my phone instead of spending that time on tiktok I'm gonna be spending it reading You know what I mean because I feel like tiktok is just so addictive and you can just be scrolling for literally hours Which is fine Which is completely fine But for me personally to accomplish my goals and what I want to do I need to just do a little less tiktok for this month at least 30 minutes a day Well, my challenge is to set your tiktok to 30 minutes a day and do it with me so that we can do together And then like read a book or something and also one of the other reasons why I did that is because I saw in This video I was listening to podcast. I think I forget where I heard this But basically they were saying how like because of social media like social media is amazing But like there's also downfalls to it Of course and they're saying because of social media we're never not never but we're not always in the present moment It's harder to be in the present moment For example, if you're go if you go to Starbucks you order coffee and you're waiting for your coffee And in between that when you're waiting for your coffee might take five minutes of you waiting for your coffee So while you're waiting for your coffee, what are you gonna do? Your model at least my first instinct is to pick up my phone and scroll through Instagram Look at my text messages of my emails distract myself like go on my phone and pass the time, right? So I'm guessing that's probably your eyes an instinct to because it's just like this generation But they were saying that like why don't you like resist going on your phone and just like literally be in the present moment With yourself because who knows what can come out of that like what if you spark an idea when you're just there thinking Or just being in the present moment What if you see something that you would have never saw or you have a spark and an idea for creativity So that really like stuck with me and I'm like that is so true Like I always distract myself in between those five minute windows or those little windows that I'm just waiting It's like what if I didn't distract myself and I was just in the moment like what can come out of that? So it's just like so cool because I never realized that like wow like I really do distract myself with my phone I feel like I can just take so much more value out of waiting and being in the present moment Even if I don't have to get thought or idea or something that comes out of it At least I was in that present moment and just soaking it in and it's like kind of funny because you know when Like sometimes if you're waiting in line or you're waiting in traffic and let's say you're waiting in traffic for 30 minutes Or you're waiting in a lineup for 30 minutes and you're like, oh my god The time could not have gone slower like it was the longest 30 minutes of my life So so boring but think about it those 30 minutes that went by slow That's like kind of amazing that they went by slow because life is passing us by so fast Like at least for me like life is passing me by so fast Try and like cherish those times where time kind of stops and feels slow Cherish them because you're never going to get those 30 minutes back life is constantly going So those 30 minutes that were the longest 30 minutes of your life You might look back on at the end of your life and be like I want those 30 minutes back You know what I mean? So it's just like I guess a whole different or like a different perspective That you can look at things rather than looking at them in like a more negative way Look at them in like a more positive way and really um being grateful and being aware of space that we're in the time that we're in But yeah, this is the end of the vlog. I'm gonna get ready go to bed I just had my london fog if you guys missed the vlog with the recipe in it I will link it down below because this is my go-to drink literally almost every night But I think what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna turn on my handy-dandy reading late over here And stay off my phone and read after I get ready to read just read until I fall asleep Yeah, that's that's my challenge to you guys present moment is all that you have So from this book, there's is a really good quote that really stuck out to me So I'm gonna read it to you guys and then reflect on it a little bit If you are depressed, you're living in the past if you are anxious You are living in the future if you are at peace you are living in the present And I struggle with this and probably a lot of other people do as well Just like sometimes living in the present and realizing that worrying about the future isn't going to Change anything if anything is going to make it worse And the present moment is the only moment that exists think about it a moment that just happened one second ago It doesn't exist anymore because it just happened like now is the only time that exists Like right now like present moment right now Sometimes I'll like get in my head about like the future or about money Which all correlates to the future and I just haven't tried to really shut myself up Like just save yourself like shut up leave and let's Rezone back in the present present moment even if it's just taking a breath and you know Result resurfacing yourself because I know it's like especially around my age or even younger or a little older than me It's like it's kind of an awkward stage in life where everyone is telling you like you have to figure out What you're gonna do you have to build for a stable future right now and da da da da So it's could be very stressful and worrisome So the thing that I've been doing is just trying to bring myself back into the present moment and realize that the future doesn't exist right now This only exists So what I do now can affect my future my thoughts now is going to affect my future So why would I worry? Why would I think negatively about my future because that's just that's just gonna make everything worse So there's no point of doing that So if you guys struggle with worrying about the future or worrying about how things are going to turn out Just know that worrying about something it's not going to change it everything is meant to be It's going to fall into place exactly the way that it's meant to be just remember that every second Every single thought you have is creating your future reality So whether you believe you can do something or whether you don't believe you can do something You're right So just keep that in mind and remember that never worry because there's really no need to I say this a lot, but we are on a floating planet in the middle of the universe. Why are we worrying? Like so um, we are so lucky to be alive right now. That's all we should be focusing on. That's live life, baby Okay, but anyways on that note. I'm gonna end the video off. Um, thank you guys so much for watching Leave any video requests that you guys want to see down below go follow me on instagram like this video And yeah, I love you guys so much. I'm so grateful for all of you in your sweet comments And I will see you guys in my next video Peace out
