One two one two, three release up.
Hi guys, it's nicole and welcome back to my channel.
Happy vlog with day 23.
Two days till christmas.
Oh my gosh, you guys, tomorrow is christmas eve and the day after that is christmas.
What the heck?
I can't believe we've made it to day 23.
But welcome to a winter break day in my life.
If you guys saw yesterday's vlog, you guys know i'm officially on winter break.
I'm officially home for the holidays.
I had a great morning so far, got some really good sleep because i'm back in my bed, finished editing and uploading yesterday's vlog, did my morning skincare.
We have some eye patches on.
They're green and red.
It's giving christmas.
And then i went downstairs eat some breakfast, but i'm currently cuddling with my bunny.
I was replying to some comments and i really should get out of bed, but it's just so comfy in here.
Oh help okay, but i'm so happy you guys are here for day 23.
We have some fun, exciting things planned for the day, so let me get out of bed and we can chit chat while i get ready.
I'm coming home this Christmas.
Jonas Brothers Christmas music.
So good.
But I just curled my hair.
I was also reading on my Kindle.
I started a new Christmas book.
It's called My December Darling by Lauren Asher.
And it's super cute so far.
I finished Megan Quinn's Crinkle Town series.
How Many Rivers Fill Christmas and Merry Christmas People the Animal.
And then I'm trying to finish this one before Christmas is over.
Which I should be able to, because I think it's less than 300 pages.
But these christmas books have definitely been a joy this season.
Okay, but time to do my makeup.
I know i've said this a million times, you guys, but i'm just so happy to be home.
I mean obviously not only because my family's here, my friends are here and also just being away at college just nothing beats the feeling of being back in your hometown but also because my winter break is actually quite short.
So, if you didn't know, i only have like five days off.
But typically at SDSU, winter break is over a month long.
Like I don't think second semester starts until January 20 something.
But for me, since I'm on band team, I'm actually going to be back in San Diego at the end of this week.
And then we're going to be practicing four nationals, basically all of winter break.
So I think that's another reason why I'm just like so happy and really cherishing my time at home, just because it's so short.
But planned for tonight, we're actually hosting a Christmas party at the house.
We're having both Shaden and Serena's families over tonight.
And they've been on my channel multiple times, but they don't know them.
I've been friends with them ever since I started dating professionally in LA, which was when I was 10 years old.
So I've known them for a decade now.
All of our families are close.
And I just think it's so cute how we all still make them to see each other, because we actually live pretty far from each other.
But they're making it down to my hometown and we're gonna have a little Christmas party.
I actually didn't see them too long ago.
They came up to San Diego for my last football game back in November and it's just always such a fun time with them.
Connor and Freddie were also supposed to come, but Connor's in Michigan right now.
And then Freddie woke up sick guy.
Hope you're feeling better, freddie.
But yeah, i literally love these people with my whole heart and i'm so glad that we were able to find time during my winter break to see each other.
So the party's not for another few hours.
I'm getting already kind of early, but i just want to help my family prepare the house and make sure everything's good for tonight.
This is going to be their first time at the new house, which is really exciting, so obviously we're going to make sure everything's.
My mom cooked a bunch of food, and then Christian's also gonna pick up some more food too.
We're gonna have a whole feast.
Like, everyone's bringing something different and I'll show you guys later, but we're gonna be eating good tonight.
But I seriously can't wait to see them all.
And what better way to spend my first full day of winter break with the people I love?
But I think on that note, I'm done with my makeup.
Boom.
Still figuring out what I wanna wear.
I kinda just wanna be comfy tonight.
But we'll see.
But you know guys, that is the plan for the rest of the day.
Hey guys, me and Christian are gonna do a crumble taste test.
We got cookies last night, but we never tried them, so we're gonna do it now.
These are the Christmas ones.
Biscoff ice cream cookie chip.
Mmm.
That is really good.
Nice and sweet.
What do you rate it out of five?
No, out of 10.
One, two, three.
Seven.
I knew it.
Peppermint ice cream cookie.
I was going to say, I don't think I like this one.
Maybe not my favorite either.
Sadie!
Sadie!
Intermission.
Hi, baby Sadie!
Okay, rate the peppermint.
One, two, three, four.
Okay.
Okay.
Oh, damn.
Frozen hot chocolate cookie.
It's a little deformed.
Get a marshmallow.
Oh, my gosh.
I really like that.
You don't like chocolate?
I love this.
It's just, it's sugar.
Yeah.
If it wasn't so unhealthy, it'd be great.
Yeah.
I think they're great.
Great.
One, two, three.
Eight.
Wow.
Okay, period.
Thank you, Gushen, for joining me for the cookies.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, look at our garlic.
Look at all the garlic that me and Nicole prepared earlier.
Yeah, we did.
Smell it.
I can smell it all over here.
I walked into the kitchen, I was like, ooh.
Oh, I can make my coffee now.
Mmm.
This is actually good.
Christian's making coffee right now.
He was talking about his health and look how much caramel he just drizzled in his cup.
That's true.
That's true.
I'm talking about sugar.
Wait, I want to try this though.
Little barista.
Action.
Milk first.
Espresso on the top.
I didn't get all the espresso in.
Okay, period.
Yum.
Taste test.
Yes, it's quite bitter.
You're not going to like it.
Oh, really?
There's not enough caramel for your dessert.
I can add vanilla syrup though.
No, that's okay.
I mean, it's your coffee.
I just wanted to taste it.
I just want to try it.
I want to see what it tastes like.
Oof, that was strong.
That'll make it.
Sadie, baby.
She's so precious, guys.
Just don't do the butter.
Okay, go.
We're back, everyone.
Yay, the party's here!
All the fams are here.
Look at all of our food.
Mm-hmm.
Korean cheese bread, spam soupy, crab legs, Jollibee, and fried rice.
And then Mama made canola.
Ugh.
And the dads are out there grilling some Korean barbecue.
