 Hi guys, welcome to a new vlog. Starting the vlog out in the evening. We are on our way to the Lazy Dog with our dog. She loves going to family dinner night on Sundays, so we decided we wanted to try this new place called the Lazy Dog. Here's Mother's. Smile everybody. Hello. Hi. You know what we need to do? We need to take a family Christmas photo with Viper. All right. We're gonna check out the Lazy Dog and see what they have and Viper is always super thrilled. So we're here at the Lazy Dog with our dog. You're telling me. All right, so we are deciding what we're gonna get. I think I'm gonna do the fish and chips. What are you thinking about? You know, I love chicken salad. I'm gonna get the chicken salad sandwich. I don't know if I'm gonna get the whole sandwich. You get the super sandwich and half the sandwich. Yeah. Valerie, what are you thinking about getting? She had a big brunch today. I did. Yeah. Got the fish and chips. She got a little sandwich over there. Chicken salad, half the chicken salad sandwich and bowls. So it's a bit later, like a week later, and I'm getting ready to go to the H Orlando. It's kind of like a really nice restaurant in Orlando in like the Dr. Phillips area. And my friend from high school, I went to her Barbie party, celebrate her party at her private screening for the Barbie movie. She was like, oh, we should get dinner sometime. And the time I saw her basically, I don't know when was it, I don't know, some time ago, she was like, oh, I can't do anything like this coming week. But like, I can do it the following because she was going to DC to see our other friend, which that other friend, Jalen, you've seen her before too, like a long, long time ago. It's been like so long since I've seen her. She was going to go to DC to visit Jalen. Before that, she was actually like in Greece with Jalen, which is so cool. Like, yo, when they travel internationally again, like hit a girl up. Because I'll actually like have a job and like money to do that. So anyway, yeah, they were in Greece and they took like these amazing photos. But she was like a Tampa Bay Buccaneers cheerleader. She went to USF with my other friend Jalen, which is so funny because like I was about to go there because like I wanted to go where my friends were going, change the plans. Like I just went to UCF, but it'll be really fun tonight. And just like, I don't know if anyone else is going, I think it's just me and her because like, I'm the one that made the reservations. I chose to wear this black dress because it's like kind of one of those restaurants that has like a dress code. Like on the website, if you go in there, they're like, we've reserved the right to not provide a service because you're not following the dress code. So I think that's kind of funny, but also to like, it does keep everything kind of like in line, making it the vibe that they want to make it, which is totally fine because it's a restaurant. I'm thinking about curling my hair. I was going to leave it straight because like I finally washed it, but I was on my hair curled even though it's raining and like the curls might fall out. Another thing too, I'm looking forward to is, I guess there's sparklers or something that like comes out later. That's why we made the reservation like kind of late. So the reservations at nine already eight. So I'll probably just like have some drinks and maybe an appetizer. So I was also talking to my friends and basically me, well, me and Kyra have accepted job offers. Jamie's job offer, I swear is like coming so soon, but basically we're saying how we're terrified to start our new jobs because I will tell you like it's really nerve-wracking even when like you're just an orientation and like being in orientations kind of like the same as like clinicals because you have like a preceptor with you and everything so you're not like alone but like you're expected obviously to do more because you're soon gonna be alone in the operating room and I feel like the parts that I'm most concerned about when being alone eventually is number one, like making sure I'm like prepared enough for the whatever case I get thrown. So far the only one I'm like super super confident about would be a c-section but that's not going to be at my job because yeah it's just not going to be at my job. Second, I'm pretty confident on a circumcision like I think those are kind of easy and then third, a pylori myotomy and it's just making like a little slit in the pylorus. There's only three that I'm like really confident like if I had to do it tomorrow like I feel like I could. The rest of it, yeah no, not at all. So we're just kind of scared but we'll be fine. So I was contemplating I'm putting bronzer on but I'm like I'm not feeling it like I'm just not going to. I didn't think that I talked about the second part of why I'm nervous for being on my own for my new career. Okay so I already talked about like being nervous about being prepared for cases so after that the other part is like the very first part of like a procedure is kind of rushed because you have to like drape the patient and that process like happens in a blink of an eye. Like I'm telling you after you gown and glove the surgeon that drape and those towels are on that patient like so fast like just a blink of an eye and like they're just ready to make the incision. They're like okay time out like let's do that like I get that they want to start but like bro sometimes you have to gown and glove like the physician the PA's or the residents and you gotta like drape the patient and then like hook up all of these cords and it's just like whoa whoa whoa like I'm sure like once I get into the groove of things like it'll be fine but I'm telling you as like a new person that's like really new to this career field I'm like oh my gosh I gotta hurry like I cannot take a breath before the procedure starts because like once the you know the incision's made and stuff everything's kind of like smooth sailing in a way like you already started and everything so it's fine but still like it's so crazy how fast everything moves. I think the makeup's pretty good I'm going to do my lips but like when I get there because you guys know I don't really like doing lips but I'm gonna do it for this occasion. Probably really won't need setting spray but I decided to put some on so I think maybe like if my hair was done I would keep it straight because it like looks kind of cool. You can see like it starts all the way down here because I haven't got my hair done and over like here oh my gosh it's time to be real. I always love being on time for be real because then I can like take more be reels because it allows you like two other you know times to take a be real. I just use the Orbe heat protectant especially when my hair is like dry I just squirt a couple of squirts in my hair sometimes honestly like this stuff kind of makes your hair oily but I guess that's why like it's a protectant so it doesn't like completely fry your hair out. Okay so I'm going to time lapse the rest of like me doing my hair and stuff because I don't really have anything else to say. I wanted to just tell you guys that I'm gonna probably vlog on my phone during this to get like Instagram stories maybe do a TikTok. I don't know I just don't really want a camera. I might bring the G7X but like I have no idea what I'm gonna do. I never really fully know what I'm gonna get like content-wise and for what platform. I kind of just wing it but I just wanted to make that disclosure. But this is my outfit I just chose to go with the black dress and then hair makeup done just classic Alex honestly and I'm going to be taking my little clutch bag my Louis. I mean I wish I had a darker color but she's cute and I like this pattern the best so it's fine but it'd probably look better if I had like a darker color. I'm filming for TikTok so check that out but here's like a little glance at the menu. Everything looks so good. I'm probably gonna get the salmon. Oh my gosh it was so fun. I don't understand. I can't really explain it but like there's something about just like getting back together like with your high school friends or just like friends you were friends with in elementary school that just like recharges you. I don't know how to explain it but it was like so much fun and since she lives like kind of closer to me now I feel like we'll like get together and do things more often because she was like in the Tampa area for a while because she was like I said before like a bucks cheerleader and stuff and she had like her job there and everything but she's kind of like moved back to like the Orlando-ish area so I'm really excited about that. We got to get my friend Jalen to move back here. She'll probably never move back here but um so it was just like super fun. Also too I wanted to talk about like pre-ordering my iPhone because it was so hard. I stepped out of class we were doing like this practice test and like I told my teacher like hey I'm gonna have to step out just for like a minute. It'll only take a minute. Yo it took like 20 minutes and the site kept like crashing and I was using my cellular data so I'm like oh maybe I'm just like not gonna get it. It's probably gonna get here like later October so I came back into class and I was like kind of sad. My classmates were like did you get it and I was like no because the site kept crashing but like I was doing my test and like the practice test and um I just kept like refreshing and then the Apple site shut down again and it was like one moment or whatever and then it came up and it was like pre-order and I was just like yes buy and so I'm gonna get it on lunch day so I'm so excited and I can't wait. I got the black titanium because well since the iPhone 4 I haven't had a black iPhone and honestly I'm in just like the black era like I just love the color black because it matches everything. Well my ultimate favorite color is white but like a white phone I feel like we get dirty really fast. Well I mean I have a white phone but they haven't changed the cameras well I made a whole video on like why I'm upgrading but they haven't changed the pattern of the camera so like I want something different you know what I'm saying. I'm so excited for the black iPhone. My accessories came just yesterday so I got the black Apple silicone case for the phone and then these are the ultra screen glass protector it was like the same it's like the exact same screen protector I have on this one but surprisingly this one was like a lot cheaper so I was like okay and I think it comes with like two in these. I think that there's two in this package I'm not sure I'll find out when I get the phone because I'll just open it when I get the phone but surprisingly this is a lot like this screen protector on this phone was $50 this was only like 30 or 40 so I'm like oh and it's like the exact same brand. I'm hoping it's as easy as applying this one because this one was pretty good I only had like one or two hairs that are like noticeable to me but like it was fine. Fingers crossed that I don't know every time I get a new phone the screen protector stresses me out because if there's any bubbles or like if it's on crooked it's just not okay. This one is semi-off crooked you can barely tell but I can tell you know what I'm saying so anyway it's my OCD just thought I would come on here and mention that I got the iPhone and I'm so excited because I knew a lot of people on X were like talking about that site crashing and stuff because I was at school too and I was like on X and I was just like reading or aka old Twitter and I'm like oh my gosh all these people including myself are not gonna get the phone but I got the phone. Anyway I hope you guys enjoyed this video make sure to give it a thumbs up don't forget to subscribe and I'll see you guys in my next video. Also check out my TikTok. Bye.
