Hi everybody.
Hi. Happy New Year by the way. Very
late, but happy new year. I'm back and I
wanted to fill you guys on in my life
and tell you what I've been up to. So,
the last time I vlogged at home was when
I sat down to talk to you guys about
my life updates. My very big life
update. That was July. So, it's been
7 months, almost 7 months since it's
already been 7 months since I moved into
this house. I've been filling this space
up little by little, getting new
furniture and still not done. The second
floor is coming along a little bit. I
think it's getting cozier and cozier. I
did vlog here and there, so I'm going to
put those clips in to try to make this a
complete vlog.
It's time to fill this up with LPs and
books. And while I'm at it, I'm going to
count how many LPS I have because I
haven't really counted
ever. I'm going to try to group them
into genres.
These three
I have 97 in total. I thought I would
have over a hundred, but close.
I don't know why I have the Death of a
Salesman DVD. Oh, this was the time when
I was like obsessed with Dustin Hoffman.
Also have Funny Face DVD and a
collection of James Dean DVDs.
I'm so tired. I think I've done enough
for the day. And then on this side, I
still have like skin care products I
have to organize. And then for this
side, I have no idea what to do. I mean,
I don't have that much space here, so I
feel like I'll just keep it empty. I've
also been taking pottery classes here
and there, mostly handb building.
This is artwork number one. This is
number two. This by Chisha.
This one's mine. Yogurt bowl. This one
is her face. We're done. We're going to
come back in three weeks to pick it up.
Finally got our pieces. It's been three
months.
>> So cute.
>> I love it. Very
>> It's cute. Mine's just green. And then
the second time we took another class at
another studio.
Peanut butter.
I wanted to make a yogurt bowl. Yeah. I
made it like
for my yogurt. Okay.
I see the polka dot.
I don't like this color.
Cute.
Um, what else is there? Oh, I've been
very into health and fitness lately. I
took a food intolerance test with Joan
just to see what causes inflammation in
my body.
Yes.
Oh,
ketchup. Ketchup. Ketchup.
It's bad.
>> Look at how red it is.
>> Of all things though, like I love kiwi
and I love almonds. Tomato and cabbage
or whatever. I just mostly eat them to
be healthy. But like almond and kiwi I
was kind of sad about. But then um you
know Joan next to me, she got so many
food that she can't eat. So I wasn't
complaining. I don't think this test is
like 100% proven to be accurate, but a
lot of people in Korea have been doing
it and a lot of people said that it's
been really helpful with improving their
health. I also got my yearly checkup and
I have high cholesterol. So that's been
something I've been trying to be mindful
of. Both my parents have high blood
pressure and high cholesterol. So I
think just genetically I'm more prone to
having high cholesterol and high blood
pressure. Blood pressure I'm okay with
for now. But cholesterol the doctor said
I need to try to bring it down in the
next six months before we do another
test or else I might have to start
taking medication. And I do not want to
start taking cholesterol medication
right now. I want to put it off as much
as possible.
So, that's been tough. I've mostly been
eating natto as my breakfast, and I've
been loving natto. I used to not
understand how people could eat it, but
I actually like it now. It's like so
good when you put it on top of rice with
sesame oil and an overe egg and some
sesame seed and you mix it and you have
it with kimchi. It's like the best. If
any of you guys have high cholesterol
and you found a way to lower your LDL,
um, something that works for you, let me
know because I need all the advice that
I can get. I just had a flea market
yesterday, my first ever flea market. I
didn't bring too much stuff compared to
my friends, but still, I sold out
everything. And even though it was
really cold, a lot of people showed up.
I was so happy to meet some of you guys
in person. and my longtime lovelies as
well. It was like a really good reunion.
It's very wholesome. So, thank you so
much for coming out again. Hopefully, I
can do another flea market in the summer
or the fall. Oo, I have updates with
Invisalign, too. Maybe I should make
another separate video talking about my
experience with Invisalign. Your girl's
done with Invisalign, though. I'm
finally done. Look at my smile. I love
it. My teeth have become much more
straight, of course, but it's become
more round and feel like my smile just
looks better.
My mouth looks huge. I mean, I do have a
big mouth, but I have to wear retainers
for life, which is a little sad, but at
least I can just wear them when I go to
sleep and it's not like an all day
thing. I'm very happy with the results.
I love my teeth now. Yeah. So, if you
have questions on Invisalign, let me
know. Maybe I could do like a separate
Q&A video for Invisalign. And I'm not
sure if you know, but I moved very close
to Joan. We're like 12 minute walking
distance, 7 minute running distance from
each other. So, we've been spending a
lot of time in this neighborhood
exploring.
Happy Sunday. I'm going to go to this
with Joan today. I always wanted to
check it out because they have a lot of
antiques, retro stuff. They have like a
huge treat filled with vendors every
Sunday. It's finally not raining today.
Okay, what to wear?
Okay, I'm going to go with this and I'm
going to do my hair and a half bun. Give
my cute phone case with sonnie angel.
Okay, let's go.
What did he
Hey. Hey. Oh, it's like all colored. You
see? Like
orange.
Didn't you come here for a lamp?
>> Hey, I'm always down to
>> I counted my LPS. I have 97.
>> Well, you have to buy three more now.
>> I know. That's my goal right now. But I
don't want to buy anything. Just
anything.
>> It needs to be special. Your hundth one
has to be special.
>> Well, look at Ken or Aladdin.
>> Where?
>> It's Eric.
Wait, but that has to be your hundth one
then.
>> So, you have to buy three today.
>> She is buying
She is buying her 98th LP.
Wow.
Louis Vuitton, huh?
>> Hey, competition.
>> Competition.
>> You've been very rough. He was like,
"Even this fell off." Remember this part
for the thumb?
>> It was like a silicone here.
>> That was the first birthday present we
got for her.
>> Yeah. 2018.
So, it's been 7 years. It doesn't close.
I have so many scratches on my
>> Please watch her videos so she could buy
a new camera.
>> Every view counts.
>> It does.
>> All right. Which influencer did this?
Who's selling? Who's selling their free
stuff? What the heck?
>> It was not.
Oh, you didn't block lunch.
>> They have decaf. They have decaf. No
matcha,
right?
>> Mhm.
>> From matcha.
>> I got an espresso machine. That's a huge
update. I always wanted an espresso
machine and I feel like such a grown-up
because I finally got one,
please. No. Okay. Doesn't want to come
up. Anyways, um I've been dogsitting
Louis because my brother and his
girlfriend are on a trip to China and
I've been enjoying every moment,
which means endless ball throwing. I
asked on Instagram about this little
nook I have right here, and a lot of
people advised me to make this like my
matcha/c coffee station, which sounds
like a good idea. I was thinking of
making this my matcha and coffee
station. So, I'm thinking of moving this
to my little nook over there and making
it my coffee/matcha station. What do you
think? The weather is so nice now.
Perfect fall weather.
This summer was excruciatingly hot and
then one day I woke up and it was breezy
and it was cool and I was like, "Wow,
fall just came like that." Louis and I
have been enjoying our morning and night
walks.
Uh, I was debating which model to get.
It's like, do I want the Pro? Do I want
like the latest one? I knew I wanted the
analog one. I didn't really like the
touch screen, but then I was reading
everywhere that people were having
issues with the grinder, the built-in
grinder on the Brevel Pro. So, a lot of
people were suggesting just getting the
Bambino and then getting a separate
grinder just because the built-in
grinder is faulty. So, that's what I
did. I got the Bambino Plus in stainless
steel. I'm so excited. Can't believe I
waited this long to unbox.
Ow. Ow. I got a muscle.
3 second heat up time, hands-free milk
texturing, 18 g dos for full flavor, low
pressure pre-infusion, and nine bar
extraction. I have no idea what that
means. I do have a barista license, but
I forgot everything. I was able to get
this for half price because I used my
car points, so that was another plus.
Yeah. So, this is basically free.
It's beautiful.
Wow. Nice and sturdy. Nice. Nice.
Ooh. You ready? You ready?
Isn't she beautiful?
I know myself well enough to read the
instructions now cuz I always mess
things up by just pressing without
reading the instructions.
Hey
This is the grinder I got. Baratza.
Okay. What else do I put here? Last but
not least, the biggest update is that
our mangi
is getting married.
Yeah, she was the youngest of our group
and she is the first to get married. Hi.
Today is a very special day and I am
vlogging because
our among Jinny is getting married.
Isn't that crazy? Yeah, our among is
getting married. So, she's doing a
studio shoot today and I'm going to go
help her with some of the, you know,
behind the scenes photos. I mean, I love
taking pictures. So, when she asked, I
was like, "Hey, who better than me for
this job?" Um, so Jung can't come
because she has a performance in Wanju,
her hometown. Been breaking out cuz it's
that time of the month.
Okay, time to go. Oh, wait. I have to
powder my face. only here
next to my nose on my smile lines and
here next to my nose bridge, my
forehead,
and my chin cuz I still want to look
dewy on my cheeks. So, those are the
only spots I powder my face on. And it
just looks way better in pictures when
these areas that I just powdered aren't
shiny. This is my OOTD. I wanted to be
comfortable, so just wearing this off
the shoulder long sleeve from Poly Swim
and these cargo pants, cargo shorts from
Sculpture. And this bag with lots of
charms on it.
Cute, cute sunglasses are gentle
monster.
Oh my god.
Okay.
Oh, step
Don't put this
Never ending story.
Foreign speech. Foreign speech. Foreign
speech.
pulling that
I love my wine red glasses from Shivoke
that matches my hair. Oh yeah, also my
hair is red. It's fading now and I'm
going to be dying it black in the next
few days. But it was nice while it
lasted. It was red for like a month. I
got it done on the last day of December,
December 31st. So, I know on Get Real I
said that I wasn't going to touch my
hair this new year, but it technically
wasn't a new year because I got it done
on December 31st. Thanks for clicking on
this video and thanks for sticking
around despite my very irregular posting
and schedule. I hope life is treating
you well, guys. I hope you are healthy
and happy and safe and I will catch up
with you guys soon.
Good night.
