 Hey y'all, what's up? My name is Sonali, welcome to my channel. If you guys are new, definitely hit that subscribe button. It is currently Wednesday and I usually do week in my life. I started one, but guys, it's been raining here in Austin for like so long. Like definitely not normal for Austin because I feel like it never rains and it's like in the middle of the summer. But I'm not complaining because it looks like the next week is gonna be a lot cooler weather. Like in the 90s, I'm like, that's so much cooler than at least being 100 degrees. So looking forward to that. But it's also made me be in a really, really weird mood. And if you guys haven't caught up on my vlogs, my boyfriend moved home for six months. So like I'm also in a weird mood because of that and just like figuring out how to live alone and all that kind of stuff. The rain kind of like came at a good time and a bad time because it kind of gives me a reason to like be lazy and just, you know, enjoy these like moments alone and be somber. And sit with my thoughts. But then also I think it's just like been canceling my plans and you know, just making me sad because I don't like rain. Like it makes me feel weird and I also can't do much content because it's so dark in my apartment and all that kind of stuff. So anyways, I tried to vlog but then I was like, I'm not feeling it. So I kind of just threw the footage away but it's Wednesday and I'm forcing myself to vlog in a way of like not because I have to for any reason like this isn't sponsored. I don't really like care about AdSense cause I don't really make that much off of YouTube anyways. But honestly like vlogging makes me happy and I think it'll like boost my mood talking to you guys even though you're not talking back but like I don't know, it makes me happy. It's like definitely a passion of mine doing YouTube and I was just thinking the other day, I have so many people telling me that they want to start a YouTube channel and I'm like honestly don't just like do TikTok because most of the time 90% of these people want free stuff and just like a way to make money on the side. Unless you're like super passionate about it and like I love having these memories to look back on like I'm so thankful. I've logged in my whole college experience cause I have all those blogs to look back at but if I was just doing this to make money like I would 100% not touch YouTube and just do TikTok cause that's honestly where I get all my collaborations now is all through TikTok. Like maybe a little bit on Instagram but I barely get any on YouTube. Just went down to the locker room to pick up some packages. I actually have some campaigns that I need to film today and I'm very proud of myself because I have been just trying to get as organized as I can so I've really been trying to use my Notion app which is kind of like, I don't know how to describe it like an organization note taking app and it's so cool cause you can customize it and you can have like so many tabs on the side. I have to show you guys later because I'm kind of proud of it but I did like a calendar of just the dates that I have for my collab so like when I need to submit my content or when I need to post my content and I think that's gonna make me feel a lot less stressed because at first I was just kind of like I don't even know what I was doing like I was putting it in my like personal calendar so like I just have so much going on that it's stressing me freak out so I decided to make it separate and just concentrate on one thing at a time because I think that's my biggest issue right now with just like work in general. If you guys are new here, I'm a photographer in Austin and an influencer so I have like collabs for the influencer stuff and then obviously my shoots and like what I need to promo for things coming up for example, December grads are not coming up but like December is not that far away and I want to start planning like holiday minis and you know winter grads for earlier because I know I'm going to be home November and December probably like I was last year because of Thanksgiving and Christmas and all that sort of stuff and I had to say no to a lot of opportunities on that end during the holiday so I really really wanna start like promo-ing it before so I can get my clients thinking about it and booking ahead of time. Other than that I've been having like a little bit of a hard time just like figuring out what I wanna eat because when I was living with my boyfriend he would be like okay do you wanna get food? Like let's go here or we would decide to cook in and decide on a meal together but now that it's all on me I'm like I don't even know what I want like what is there even to eat? It's just a weird like thing to you know think about I guess. I don't know how to explain it like I almost don't feel like as hungry because someone else isn't talking about food in my ear which maybe is good because you know like maybe I should just eat when I am hungry which you know is like the three meals of the day but anyways so I went grocery shopping yesterday finally because I was like eating just like the randomest stuff that I could find in the pantry but then when I got home and I was gonna make dinner I was like thinking I literally did not even get any meals like I didn't go with meals in my mind which was definitely problem number one on my end. Yeah that was stupid of me because I just got like a whole bunch of fruits and snacks and all of this kind of stuff. I did get chicken so I made like some chicken breast or thigh thing with like sweet potatoes last night which was honestly really really good and I only really have like what three more dinners this week and I have a lot more chicken but anyways I need to get better about just like meal planning and I think in the last vlog I told you guys that my mom recommended me to do something like Hello Fresh so I wouldn't have to think about like what I'm gonna eat every single night or just do it three nights out of the week so I can like cook on the other two nights like what I want cause I always see like TikTok recipes that I wanna recreate but that's the other thing like I wanna cook because I love cooking but it's not as fulfilling cooking for yourself like that it just doesn't hit the same you know like I always love seeing Ryan get seconds because I know I like cooked a good meal and just like seeing people enjoy your food just is so fulfilling to me so I maybe need to start inviting friends over for dinner when I want like something big like chilly or like I don't know some big pasta dinner or something so I don't have like too many leftovers I guess I'm just going on a random like ramble of my thoughts over the past few days of like living alone for my first week cause there's been a lot of thoughts I also kind of knew that a big issue for me was going to be like consuming a lot on social media or just like podcasts or not being able to live in the silence which I'm definitely gonna have to work on like it's only the first few days of being alone but I've been like almost more addicted to my phone like I'll literally just like sit anywhere and play tech talks just so I can hear people talk to me or like sounds in the background and yesterday or was it today? I think it was yesterday I was cooking dinner and I just told like the Google home to play like something on Spotify and honestly I didn't touch my phone once while cooking dinner and I feel like that's not like normal for me cause I'm always like on my phone scrolling and so maybe I need to do that more just like play more music I'm not like super into music though I have my same like house playlist I play all the time so maybe I just need to find more music and just get more into that because I feel like the scrolling is just getting a little too much and may not be good for up here I wanna start getting ready for the day and I wanna film a lot of content today because also another thing that happened is I got new teeth I feel like I'm like trying to catch you guys up in every vlog but I got new teeth so these are my temp veneers I literally just went in for follow up today and we're actually gonna change like kind of a lot on my teeth I'll zoom you guys in so this is what it looks like now and I just wanted like an even more like leveled smile cause I think it goes like up a little bit and that's like how my natural teeth were and I just like you know if I'm getting veneers I want them like super straight across so I think we're gonna change like kind of a lot about my teeth so I'm really really excited to see like the finals and that's gonna happen on September 8th and I'm gonna vlog the whole thing for you guys so I'm really really really excited about that and then yeah so having new teeth it's kind of like weird to see myself in pictures and like even just smiling with them I'm gonna have to relearn to smile and everything maybe it won't feel as weird when I have the real ones because the temps are one block of teeth and so it feels really weird and not natural but like the finals are gonna be like individual teeth and they're gonna be porcelain so they're not gonna feel like as rough as these do not that they're like horrible but like on the back of the teeth it feels as though I didn't brush my teeth like that's how weird it feels and like almost scratchy so it's kind of been weird filming content for that reason I feel like I'm not used to them yet and I don't know, I don't know it's just weird so I feel like I've been not in like the mood to film at least for TikTok which is kind of sad because I've been loving TikTok and I'm also mad at myself because I had a goal of trying to hit 100K on TikTok by September 1st and it's currently August 22nd and I'm at 82,000 when I was talking to like management agencies which I ended up not going with one because I am just at a place where I don't want them to take like 20% but when I was talking with them they're like once you get to 100K brands start to like really start looking at you and like you'll get like a bunch more brand deals which obviously, you know, that'd be great so I'm really, really wanting to hit that but I honestly have not been putting in the work on TikTok and I'm really mad at myself for that I just feel like I've been having like a lot of weird life changes in this past month so it's been a weird time but that is no excuse because this is like my income so I need to really just like brainstorm sit and brainstorm like ideas and all that kind of stuff and I do wanna start talking on TikTok more cause I feel like I scroll TikTok on my 4U page and it's just people talking like I literally maybe hear one trending sound every 10 talking videos so I really think that they're trying to push the like original audios even more I know I said I was gonna stop rambling like three times I just feel like I had to catch you guys up on so much so Monday's homework was having a sale and I'm kinda mad because I really bought the swimsuits when it was 40% off but then a couple days later they went to 60% off and I was like are you freaking kidding me but it's okay I still love the company so I definitely wanna support and I re-bought one of the swimsuits like in the same color and everything because I think I lost it somewhere I'm not really sure where but I literally can't find it anywhere so this is the Portofino one piece and what I love about Monday Swimmer is the quality is like insane like it really sucks me in cause it's almost like that spanks material and like it's ribbed too so it really just makes me feel so secure and like stuffed in and then this is a new color I have this style I guess the other one that I have is ribbed so I expected this one to be ribbed but I'm gonna try it on and see okay so the next thing I got is for the pantry there's like a really big space on the bottom of the pantry and I'm just like I don't know what to do so everything's just like stacked up so I thought I would get some like drawer kind of thing so I'm gonna set this up later I'm so excited for this because this is a mirror phone case and I actually have one brand collaboration coming up that they are specifically asking me to film with the back of my camera and I had this like brilliant idea of getting a mirror phone case I'm just gonna cut it so that I can like see what's filming because most of the time when I film with the back of my camera I can't see anything obviously so I got a little mirror phone case for that this is what it looks like on and I feel like this is oh, I'm definitely distorted like it is 100% distorting me on the back but at least I can see like how it's being placed and like if there's anything on my face that shouldn't be there so this purchase is kind of funny but like 100% necessary here in Austin I bought a neck fan because since I am going to be the one taking Sophie out like 100% of the time obviously unless Ryan comes and visits I get really, really irritated in the sun like when I have to like stand out there for a really long time and sometimes it takes a while for her to like sniff everywhere and pee and poop and shit and so for me not to be irritable I thought I'll get a neck fan for when I take Sophie on walks or just like out when it's super, super high up which it feels like it always is I thought this was gonna be so freaking smart and even just like on walks like it looks like headphones so you can put it around I believe it just goes like that so it looks like you're wearing headphones although it'd be weird if I went on a walk with this and like my over the head headphones I feel like people would be like what the fuck is she doing but I am super freaking excited for this because I feel like this is going to be also really smart for when I have photo shoots outside I can give my client this to cool her down because I'm always telling my clients you should bring a mini fan because it's gonna be hot and the people that do it like their lives are saved so now I have this I need to make sure it's charged and I wonder if it is a little bit charged so I can turn it on I kind of thought it would be more powerful but it still feels really good let's see if it goes even more no, that was it I guess that has three speeds but you know what? it does feel very cooling and when I'm hot or like honestly even out shooting full looks this is going to be a game changer because I have to like change in my card it's always so hot just finished my makeup and my hair and I used a new foundation today it's called She Glam I guess it's on She In but I think it's its own website like she glam dot com anyways, this one at Tiktoker was talking about this foundation that's like nine dollars and it's really really good so this is what it looks like on my skin and it's supposed to be like super full coverage it was but like this dang bruise is really showing through like a lot of my like more full coverage foundations so it sucks but at least I can kind of cover it up and like show this side of my face but I filmed two TikToks and now I'm going to eat some breakfast I tried out these like soft scrambled eggs the other day and they were so good I've been craving them ever since so we're going to make them the main campaign I'm filming today is for Madewell so I got my little Madewell jeans on and actually this full outfit except for the shoes is Madewell like how cute this little ball sweater is so we're going to go to Maribou coffee shop which I already took you guys along I think it was my last vlog actually but I proposed the location to the team and they said they really liked it so I mean I don't mind going back it was super cute and the matcha was really really good with Nagin and we are looking through TikTok sounds cause I literally once she got in the car I was like so I have some homework for you you have to post two TikToks during our hangout session well maybe not post it because like wait till later tonight I think but still you got to make two TikToks cause I'm trying to get her on TikTok I'm telling her that's where it is honestly it is very very daunting but but why you are on YouTube I don't get it I don't know I think there's just the TikTok is so different than YouTube I feel like you really have to be just I don't know I don't know why I'm like that it's so weird because a lot of people are like I like TikTok better cause I can like let loose and like be myself so I can't let loose I think that's the problem it's so weird cause I get it I get it for Instagram like you have like or like we just have people in our past that like are on our Instagram so maybe you just like don't want to be your full self like I get that but TikTok like you're starting fresh you're starting new yeah well I will have to post those two videos like there's no question it's not negotiable but yeah she's on YouTube if you guys don't know and she does like a lot of like living alone videos which I'm like honestly I've been kind of binge watching some of them especially because I'm like the one you just posted was really good and yeah they're really really good yeah follow me thanks gal oh my god a shout out okay so we're gonna go inside and I just told her that the like vision I have for my brand video is more like paparazzi like camera man's not there I'm just like chilling doing my errands that's what I told the brand but I was like getting matcha and looking at a home store is probably not errands but I guess just showing off the fit and honestly the brand sent me a sound that they want me to use it's like a jingle and it actually is such a bop so I'm like I won't be surprised about if that sound goes viral like people use it it is a really good sound it's kind of bop so I'm excited to use it I'm excited to see it too let's go get some matcha what do you place this morning which is central market something about it just makes me feel so good I love walking around bougie grocery stores and just looking at all the fun snacks so I wanted to do a little grocery haul cause I got some good stuff but I got like a lot of like salmon things I don't know why I did that but I couldn't say no okay so first off we got the balsamic fig dressing this sounded really good and I have spinach in there also got strawberries and goat cheese well let me not get ahead of myself but I wanted to make a salad I saw that Jenny's ice cream was on sale so I literally just had to my favorite flavors are the gooey butter cake and then the wild wildberry lavender together too it's just such a good pairing next we have sourdough bread this is the only reason I went to the center market to get this cause I bought my favorite butter the other day I don't know if I already said this but when I was at H.E.B. they had my favorite I'm pretty sure it's vegan butter I'm not personally vegan my mom is and she showed it to me it just tastes really really good when sourdough so it's like one of my weaknesses then I got some sushi the last time I was at Whole Foods which I know Whole Foods in central market are totally different but like they are similar in ways because they're bougie grocery stores last time I was at Whole Foods I was like the sushi looks amazing even though it wasn't like super cheap but anyway this looked really good it's $10 which I feel like is I guess normal for like a sushi restaurant I don't know and then I saw salmon like sashimi salmon which was amazing because I usually have to drive all the way up to H Mart up north to get sushi grade fish so I'm really really happy that I found this even though I feel like the fish that I get at H Mart is a lot more like the quantity is a lot more it's a little bit more expensive but especially if you're making like a pocky bowl for like two people going to H Mart is so worth it because you can get so many other like fruits and vegetables for really really good prices but this was like $14 and I think I'm gonna make like a pocky bowl or I don't know I think I'm gonna look up some TikTok recipes to do with that I got some more salmon so I actually reached for this first because I had chicken in the fridge and I was like you know what what if I'm get sick of chicken I'm maybe should have gotten salmon and then I got some goat cheese and I saw this like honey goat cheese that sounded so good I've heard a lot about just this brand as a whole siete and so I wanted to try these chips so I just got sea salt chips I got some bunches of mint and basil I actually just purchased a click and grow I think that sounds cool but basically it's like an indoor plant grower if you will and there's like a little light and I'm pretty sure like it waters it on its own I'm hoping it does and then you buy specific pods there's so many herbs you can choose from there's like apple mint which I didn't even know existed I had no idea what it was I was like is that the same as mint but I think it's only being delivered at the end of this month so I just went ahead and picked up some herbs and it smells so good and then I got some shallots because I've been seeing so many again referencing TikTok but I've been seeing so many like chefs using shallots instead of onions I really wanna look into it more and I'm very inspired by this girl on TikTok she does day in my life as a private chef in the Hamptons they are so interesting because she literally makes like breakfast, lunch and dinner and these recipes look so amazing so I really really do wanna learn how to cook more but the issue is that now that Ryan doesn't live with me I'm only cooking for myself and it's just not as exciting obviously I have an Indian background and culture and everything like that but I do not know how to cook anything really I mean I usually like buy those like butter chicken packets and I don't really cook anything from scratch which kills me inside because I really do want to learn but I don't know it's just years of practice and obviously I don't have it under my belt just yet but I guess you know it's better to start today than tomorrow okay so this has actually been on my grocery list for a while now these are just rice paper yeah it's rice paper so I can make like spring rolls and I got my oyster mushrooms these were, I don't even know actually how much these were it didn't have a, let's see oh okay they would tend to ores that's not horrible because these can get pricey at farmers markets definitely recommend to get these at like an Asian grocery store like H Mart or 99 Ranch they have really good ones for very very inexpensive I just didn't want to drive all the way out there and I was craving those mushrooms so again I just bought strawberries for like salads and stuff I think this might be the last thing and I got cucumbers in case I wanted a juice or put it in my salad so yeah that's my little Central Market Hall I love this place so much I mean it's very very comparable to whole foods I will say but it's just so fun just getting to see all the new and upcoming like foods and brands and all that kind of stuff but today I really really want to focus on my photography brand I feel like I need to lock in some rates for like the upcoming few months and next grad season because I definitely want to increase my rates in like a certain season or like a certain month especially for like April grads like I'm going to do an early bird package for March and then maybe April I'll increase the rates having a little late breakfast I'm just going to use this container and put the grapes in here I love to slice my grapes this is how my mom used to do it cottage cheese and grapes are such an underrated combination I tried peaches and cottage cheese the other day and I just like didn't hit as good also this is lactate so for all my lactose intolerant girlies out there you're welcome I'm feeling like I need a midday pick me up and I got some self seizes in a PR package actually and I think I tried these before I can't really remember I got tropical vibe pineapple-y kind of drink let's see ooh strawberry lemonade that sounds good let's try it together I guess I was kind of expecting it to be a little bit more carbonated it's not it's pretty good I feel like I just like want to be like super energized and like go crazy and like get shit done today because I've been like organizing and like slowly doing work over the past few days but I just want to get a lot done especially because I feel like it's sunny I want to create content I have makeup on and I need to do the photography stuff because I've been pushing that off and I have some DMs to respond to and I hate making people wait but I also need to like think about like rates before I message them back but cheers let's get some shit done today I've been doing some research on my competitors in the area and like what they charge and just like what their packages are I personally don't put my rates out on the internet but I do appreciate what other photographers do it so I can kind of like base my numbers off of that so I've been doing that and then I drink the Celsius and now I'm feeling so anxious and I hate the feeling but I am getting like stuff done and I was thinking I could create like a contact form I was gonna do it on a Google form so I was like there has to be a way to make this cuter so I actually have Canva Pro I like have the subscription so it's like there has to be like a widget or something and then I found this thing called type form where you can like actually insert the widget into like a Canva template which I haven't made the Canva template so I'm just working on the type form cause it's kind of like confusing at first but I wanna show you guys that cause it's very interesting so first question is hey what's your name then I say are you a high school senior and then like if it says yes then I go to the next question which is when would you ideally like to shoot and then if it says no then it kind of gives this little what's this just like a screen that says like you know follow for more updates on anything else but then when you go into logic which this is kind of the confusing part and the cool part so this is kind of where you can like end the question I guess so let's see this is the one would you ideal okay so are you a high school senior we'll do that one is it focusing okay so basically if they choose be which is no you can put it to like the end screen that says this contact form is just for high school seniors but if they say yes you can go to the next question so I thought this was so cool and the fact that you can just like embed it in a widget is awesome if I had the patience I would literally make so many type forms for like anything like even in my friend group I was like this could be a cool thing to just like if you wanted to create like a weekend itinerary or for like a bachelorette party you can get other people's like opinions on what they want to do it seems free for now I'm not sure like what you can buy or like what you can get more of if you purchase a plan because I do CBU plans on the top corner but I think it's free for now so I'm good on that but my issue is just like coming up with the packages and everything like that because I don't want to like be too expensive for people to be like oh that's like really expensive but I know that my prices are not close to what other people are charging which I feel like I don't want to be the exact rate that everyone charges because I do want to like get those grads that maybe can't afford those packages but in my eyes obviously I'd rather do less work but get paid more and I feel like I've been like established in Austin for a while and just like I've been in the industry for a very long time so I feel like I can raise my prices but I just do feel bad like even last year I raised my prices and I'm surprised that I went the way I did but then I got one senior that was like oh yeah like I chose you because you were so much cheaper than the others and I was like I mean that's a great nall but I'm like oh shoot I also just got a text from my friend Jenna saying that she was doing like a happy hour with friends if I wanted to come so I think I'm gonna go it's at 7 p.m. it's currently 3 p.m. so I still have a lot of work to do I still want to film some TikToks so I'm not really sure what to film so I also want to like put all my ideas down which I feel like I said that but it's just so hard when like your mind's running and it also doesn't help when you're doing like two I wouldn't say completely different jobs because I feel like photography and influencing is like in the same realm but like but the tasks are completely different and it just makes me want to combust sometimes but I was telling you guys about my Notion calendar so I wanted to show you guys what it looks like we have all my tabs over here this one is for sponsorships and I just wanted one place to see you know when I need to submit my content when I'm gonna post it so here is some of the stuff so basically submitting Wayfarer content so I definitely want to get this film today and submit my Wayfarer content today I actually already submitted the Madewell content early the really long ones are a whole duration period where you can choose your post dates but for let's say the September 1st one I already told them that I would post on September 1st so I need to make sure I'm not posting this Wayfarer on September 1st because I like to spread it out a little bit you know what I mean? So same with the Express content I could probably post that another day just so I don't kind of bump into the DSW content I feel like whenever I explain this kind of stuff like it makes my mind go like boom goodness gracious like slow down I don't know what the frick you're talking about so I don't know if it's interesting to you guys or what my brain is all over the place especially with this damn caffeine it's making me feel some weird things I'm all ready for a happy hour I literally just changed into another hot pink top which is very not on brand for me but I'm loving it I think it just like really pops with my skin color but I'm gonna bring my pop bae bag this is not Patega Veneta but it's like the dupe for the noodle bag or whatever it's called it really doesn't fit shit at all like I can put a card, my ID, maybe my keys and a lip liner so just a heads up it is 100% for show and I love it for that reason but I definitely bring it out when I don't need a lot so a cake tonight because I actually I'm probably gonna Uber over there not really in the mood to find parking downtown and pay for it and all so just gonna do that also I don't know if I told you guys this but I like misplaced my business credit card I know it didn't get stolen because I like used it in person but I actually just called the last place I used it and I definitely left it there so I'm gonna go get it tomorrow but let me give you guys a quick OOTD before I leave this is what we're working with today I've already worn this outfit I think maybe with different jeans but I really like this top it's from Revolve maybe I need to like look up how to like do the bow nicer but it's kind of like this asymmetrical vibe super cute and then these jeans are from Zara you can barely see my feet because they're so long and I always cut my Zara jeans I am 5'3 and they're always so long on me but I kind of like it especially because I'm wearing heels I think they're like four inch heels but these are my go-to heels they're the Knowles heels from Dolce Vita and they have like a clear strap on them so they go with everything and they're actually very very comfortable I don't usually wear heels because they're not comfortable but these I can actually walk in so that's good but I'm gonna go call Lyft and head to the event I'll probably vlog on my phone though because I'm just like over carrying this camera around but I got set home with a goodie bag and some leftovers from the event and I didn't eat at all I was really excited that they were gonna have food so I'm very very happy that they brought like two boxes out we're back from the event it was so fun and I honestly never know who's gonna be at these events it was Jenna's like event before her big event tomorrow celebrating her like one year podcast if you guys don't listen to her podcast it's called Fun On Weekdays and I actually took her cover photo I'll insert it here it's so cute we went to Wax Myrtle's it was like more of like the sponsors I guess got together for the event and then some of like her friends and stuff so I was able to meet some new people which is always so so fun and I always appreciate like connecting with new people especially here in Austin I've been here for three years now and I feel like I'm never gonna stop wanting to meet new people but I got like a little to-go box so I think I'm gonna like heat this up in the air fryer so that's gonna be loud in the back but we'll just have to bear ever since Ryan has been gone which has not been for that long yet I, you know, obviously knew I was gonna have a little bit of mom dog mom guilt and I did I wasn't even gone for that long like 6.30 to like 9.30 and usually I'm gone for longer but I just feel so bad because I feel like he always gives Sophie so much attention come here it was so hot out I just really wish I had a clock left so now I know to not go anywhere without a clock left just hanging off my bag I low key was about to like go in and take my Invisalign off because my temporary teeth feel like they're a retainer and it just feels so uncomfortable lovely and so I literally sometimes find myself going to like take them off if you're had Invisalign whenever they get like uncomfortable you just like slide them out or like when you're about to eat which I was about to eat and I was just about to go like that it's like wait I literally can't get rid of this feeling for another couple of weeks which honestly I feel like it's going by super super fast because my final appointment is September 8th I feel like I've been seeing them a lot but I'm counting down the days because like now it doesn't really hurt it just feels like not like normal you know so just looking forward to having normal real teeth Hey y'all it is Friday it's midday and I'm about to meet a new friend for acai bowls we're going to go to Blender and bowls on the east side I feel like there's so many like cute little places around this area of town that I always forget about I've only gone here like once and then I got it to go obviously to go just didn't hit as good as getting it in the store because it's like acai bowls, avocado toast and you know it should just get mushy when you get it to go or take out no I think I Uber-eased it so I feel like that's even worse I've been very scatterbrained this whole week and I don't know why I just can't seem to like focus on one thing pissing me off so much because I have so many things to like just plan out for the rest of the year and I don't know I just don't know what's going on in my mind so hopefully next week can be better and will be better I will make sure of it it's 7.20 and I am going to make myself a poke bowl for dinner I actually just made a bunch of sushi rice well I'm not done with it just yet but I have like specific rice for sushi rice it's just called sushi rice but to make it like an actual sushi restaurant does you have to put sugar and where is it? vinegar or something like that rice vinegar maybe? so I'm gonna do that in a second like a tablespoon of vegetable oil fourth cup of sugar half a cup of rice vinegar whenever I make sushi rice Ryan hates the smell so much and it definitely has like a vinegar like feet smelling smell and then I think we need to add some salt we are probably going to go out tonight I let the sauce cool now it's time to pour in and mix it my friend's friend ended up arriving late because there was like a bit of a delay so we couldn't even make our reservation which is totally fine because we're just gonna go straight out to the bars and I think we're going to West and I'm actually so excited because I feel like I have not been like out out in forever and I'm just like so ready to like go out more I made a little margarita concoction I made it way too strong at first so I poured like a little bit of chlorine in it which is good because I need to hydrate anyway so I need to like trug it and I'm not putting like cute little rose petals on top I just love being extra with my cocktails I love a pretty cocktail any little garnish I'm like wow a little lime I'm like that is beautiful like I don't know why I'm just like very impressed by like any little garnish or rim on any kind of cocktail but it's like strong and gross still usually a tequila girl like I never really drink vodka unless it is in drinks out at the bar and I'm like ooh that like sounds good but I usually try to stick to tequila so tonight I'm definitely going to try to do that because last time I was just like out of chill bar and I think my issue was that I kept ordering like really sweet drinks because they were like craft like craft cocktails I don't even know what that means but like specialty cocktails where they like you know make it like pretty and stuff and so there was like two really sweet ones that I ended up ordering and I got an immediate headache and now I'm like gonna remind myself don't do that like it's not worth it because then you literally have to go home and it's just not fun I've been blasting some music trying to get me in the party mood because I feel like when it gets so late especially when you're like alone at first when we decided we weren't gonna go to Codependent they were like we should just come to like one's place and then go from there and pre-game and I was like hell yeah but I'm kind of glad that's not happening because then I would have had to rush clean the place which wouldn't have been like terrible and honestly it would have probably been better because then I would have cleaned my place but now I don't have to rush but I'll probably end the vlog here and put like some clips I get throughout the night if I do I don't even know if I will I just remembered I need to figure out what person I'm bringing and then like switch everything over and also my hair's been like not greasy but just pretty flat on here so I just threw it up in a ponytail and I feel like that's gonna be fine anyways cause like it just gets so hot when you go out and you're just wanting to throw it up anyways like last night I would have died for a hair clip or like a claw clipper or something like that so anyways, if you guys enjoyed this vlog subscribe and don't forget to follow me on TikTok and Instagram I am very active on both so those are both, what do
