 Hey y'all, what's up? My name is Sonali. Welcome to my vlog. I'm so pumped for this weekend because I'm going to Blake Travis for one of my best friend's birthdays. Taylor is turning 25 and we're all going to celebrate and do a little boat day on Saturday. Her theme is Taylor's Texas 25th, so we all got cowboy hats. I'm super stoked about it. I think Harley's going to pick me up. I was trying to be really minimal with packing and stuff, but yeah, it just never works out. We're staying in an Airbnb, so I brought like two towels because I didn't know if there would be enough towels for everyone and just like random little things like that. I want to be like as prepared as possible. I also brought my cheeseboard because we're planning on doing a really cute like brunch board tomorrow, which will be really exciting. I'll vlog that for sure. And yeah, I'm just really excited about this boat day. It's going to be my first official boat day here in Austin. I did go in one boat, but that was like for filming purposes and it was like literally an hour, so it didn't count because it was for a job and I couldn't really enjoy myself. We were supposed to go to Lake Travis, but apparently the boat ramps are closed in Lake Travis, so luckily our boat guy is going to take us to Lake Austin. We'll have to take an Uber over there instead of just walking because that's what the original plan was since we are staying in Lake Travis, but it's okay. I'm just so glad that we're able to still do the boat day because that's what I was so excited for. My suitcase is like filled to the brim. I brought a cooler bag, my boots, that brunch board thing, cheeseboard, Taylor's gift, and my purse. And I feel like I am still missing out on a bunch of stuff, but I hope I did not forget anything. We made it to the house. Which got our nice work done in the 100 degree Texas heat. Yeah, we brought up all these drinks. All right, we're going to do a little Airbnb tour. So this is the living room. Super cute. Kitchen, beautiful white. Is this the master bathroom? Or this is the guest? This bedroom is huge. I think this is the master. Oh my god, this closet is huge. It's crazy how big things get once you get pretty far from the city. And then this is the master bathroom. Did that shower so nice. When you come up the stairs, there's this little common area space. And then there's a bedroom over here. And then let's see if this is my room. Oh, there's a pretty big bathroom over here. And then I'm guessing this is me and Allie's room. How cute are all these lawn decorations too? I feel like this whole Airbnb is a Western theme. We're supposed to make it look like this. Iconic. Oh, that's cute. I think we're going to make this room, the picture room. How cute is this? I don't think I showed this in the Airbnb tour, but this is like the little common area right by the front door. Love this. So I don't know, I'm thinking here or I feel like that's a little too busy. So I think we're going to go for this. We decided that we needed some food. This is Harley. Say hi. Hi. We're going to go to P. Terry's and I've never had P. Terry's before, so it's going to be my first experience in for a treat. But yeah, I think we're only going to eat like later tonight at eight or something. So we were like, we should probably get some food in us. It's like 4pm right now. Even better than we thought. This is so cool. I'm so happy. Hey girl. Yeah, it's your turn. Never mind. Maybe you should be careful. Oh, check out this brunch board. We're going to go to like Austin soon. All right. So our Uber, we scheduled them last night and it's going to be here in like four minutes. Okay, perfect. But we are going to go to like Austin. I'm so excited. It's my first boat day. Taylor's been on a boat. She's cooler than me. No, but I'm happy to have my girl here with me. Yes. The western theme has been so great. I feel like it's so fitting because we like moved to Texas last year and then so sentimental. Here we are. Look a year later. She was with me my birthday last year. I know. Now she's here now. She's helped plan things, done logistics. She's helped cook. She helped organize getting everything out here. So she's been so helpful. I'm so mad to get to celebrate today. For all of you people that are going through recruitment and are thinking about joining us already, we met because of our national Katie Facebook page. Yes. So like, even though she went to UF and I went to UCF, we still met and it's super cool because we had like that bond, that sister. We had the sister had bond right from the jump. It's legit. Okay. And then she met like some of the girls here from UF Katie and she met them and like it was such an easy start. Yeah, there's 10. Actually, I guess that's not really early, but I'm back with Ryan. I wanted to show you guys. I've been trying to train Sophie how to high five because we did get a trainer when she was a puppy. I was not a good dog owner back then and honestly it was like my family's dog. So anyways, I feel like I didn't really like practice what he taught her. So and I don't really think he taught her a high five, but like, you know, she can like stay and sit. I really wanted to get her to high five. So we have been practicing. Sophie, come here. Okay, ready? Oh, Sophie. Okay. Come on. Sit. Good girl. Okay. High five. Come on. Come on. High five. Sophie, high five. Good girl. She kind of can do it. Like I'll try to like tap her leg or something. I don't know. We're practicing. I've only done this training like maybe four times or three times. So that's not even that bad. Like six. Okay, but that's still not that bad, especially because she had a weekend break, you know. High five, Sophie. Good girl. Yeah, we're still going to have to practice, but this is a start. One of the things that I wanted to do today was go to H-Mart and get some sashimi and just a couple of groceries. H-Mart's like kind of far from our house. It's in North Austin. So Ryan thought we would just go to hit some balls at what's called an ivory ranch. Yeah, I wanted to play golf anyway, so it's kind of the driving range. Yeah, it's pretty close to the H-Mart. It's like seven minutes away. So we're about to get into the driving range and it's really hot outside though. It's like definitely 96, which isn't even like the max it can get. But we just got to adapt, you know. Just got to deal with it. We're about to head into H-Mart and I'm so excited. I'm craving some sushi. Kind of wanted to get a sushi roll here because I still haven't eaten and I want to eat something really quick, but we'll see. It's currently 6 p.m. and I'm actually headed to a shoe. I took off my makeup. I'm like breaking out on my nose bridge. I don't know why that's such a random place to break out, but something's going on. So I took off my makeup because I was just like, I do not want this to be any worse than it's getting. I was trying to rush to get a video up, but I didn't have enough time to like do that description box. So I'm just gonna have to wait to like get home. But it is 100 degrees outside and apparently we're supposed to be shooting a little bit outside. So wish us luck. So I just got home and I actually just ran to my computer to publish a blog really quick because I want my uploading schedule to be like Sunday and Wednesday. So hopefully I can do that from now on. My freelance schedule was slowing down a lot. I'm sorry I look like I have raccoon eyes. I did not realize this. I went to that shoe just like looking like a hot mess, but this week I'm traveling to Denton, Texas for work. I'm just driving there, but it's a 3 hour 30 minute drive, which I hate driving, but it's okay. Hopefully in the near future I'll be able to travel to like other cities and other properties in different states because obviously when I got the job COVID hit and stuff. So I wasn't really able to like do my actual job that I got hired for, which was so weird, but thank god they still kept me. I honestly feel just so lucky that I got the job before everything went down. Oh my god I'm sweating out here. It's crazy hot here in Texas. I mean I feel like I say that in every vlog, but it's just a different level when it's out of true Greece every day. I know this vlog will probably be really short, but I hope you guys enjoyed it. It was such a fun weekend. I've literally been looking forward to this weekend for so long, especially for the boat day. That was like my favorite part. If you guys are interested to see more photos from the weekend, they're probably up on my Instagram while it wipes whatever way for my face. But yeah, go follow me on there. It's so underscored and early without the G and I will see y'all in my next video. Bye!
