Good morning, vlog.
Can you hear the jackhammers?
Good morning, guys.
Welcome back.
I miss you.
I went to Sabrina Carpenter two nights ago and I'm just living in the past.
Can't stop thinking about it.
So, Well, I don't really think this through.
So yeah, I'm back in New York.
That's what I'm trying to say.
As a lot of you guys probably know, I was in France.
I loved that vlog so much.
I loved how it turned out and it was so long.
So I've been trying.
I see your comments.
I know you guys asked for one thing and it's longer videos.
What is this?
Episode 8 now?
I'm just going to be doing stuff alone, which we know is my thing right now for some reason.
I do everything alone, it seems.
I love that you guys love these videos because I also love them.
I've been waking up earlier not that early, but just like very consistently and going to bed early consistently.
And I feel so much better and I just get stuff done.
I've been so productive.
I have a lot to fill you guys in on.
We'll circle back.
I love saying business jargon.
For no reason i'm gonna make my bed.
Maybe i'll get some coffee and we'll circle back.
All right, i'm done with that.
I'm sorry I'm such a bad YouTuber because I made my breakfast, which was just toast, and then I was gonna show you, and then I got hungry and I ate it and I forgot.
Anyways, I'm getting dressed for the day.
I think I'm gonna wear this top that I just got from Princess Polly.
I haven't tried it on yet, so we'll see.
Or I could just wear this all day, but I won't do that.
Wait, I'm gonna one second.
Okay, my outfit's actually kind i don't know.
Do i like this outfit?
I don't know.
Takes me a second to marinate in my outfits to decide if i like it or not.
I think i actually like it.
I ended up putting on a little bit of makeup to get ready.
I'm gonna go to my apple care appointment because, long story short, i broke my phone.
They're gonna be really, really annoyed to see me coming through that door because i was just there two weeks ago when I broke the front, the back of my phone.
They actually ended up having to give me a whole new phone because it was just destroyed.
And then when I got my new phone, I forgot to get a screen protector for it.
So I've been living really recklessly like this and I already scratched it.
So they're probably going to hate that.
They're definitely going to hate that.
And I learned my lesson to always get the glass screen protector because I forgot to do that.
Wait, I'm going to show you guys my outfit in the mirror one more time.
Okay.
Best time of the day.
It's jewelry time.
You know when you find that one pair of shoes that you just really like?
Well, for me, it's these ones.
These are from Princess Polly, and I've had these for, I think, like three years now.
If they ever get rid of these shoes, I'm going to be very sad.
Look at the difference.
Old and new.
Hey guys, i got my phone fixed.
They weren't too angry with me for being back here twice.
I was worried i was gonna get the same guy that helped me last time.
I was like he's gonna be like why are you back again?
So that's good news for me my phone's fixed.
It was actually like really easy.
You're probably wondering why are you still here, because i have a call right now, in like two minutes, that i totally forgot about.
So i just asked them if i could sit here and do my little call and she said that I could sit on this table.
So I have a little table to myself.
Wow, I feel like I'm in the office with my corporate looking shirt.
Oh my God, it kind of looks like I work at Apple.
Like I feel like I would look like I'm a part of Apple care squad.
I left apple finally whoa the lighting so glowy i'm look like i'm in a music video or something.
I was gonna go get a smoothie and then the smoothie shop was closed, so i think i'm gonna go to this like a little coffee shop and maybe get some food and coffee.
It's called felix.
It's so cute in here like the aesthetic is really incredible.
I can't wait to show you guys.
I've been like meaning to vlog this place for so long.
When I first moved to New York, this was like one of the first coffee shops I found.
I like randomly stumbled upon it.
So I kind of like associate this when I moved here.
Like you know, like when you have memories like that or places that you just associate with a specific time period.
This just reminds me of when I first moved here.
This might be my favorite coffee shop interior design wise that I've ever been in.
It's just very much my style of that, like vintage Victorian decor that I've never seen in a coffee shop before.
If I opened a coffee shop, this is what it would look like.
Love it in here.
It's called felix roasters in soho, if you guys are ever here.
I kind of hate when people vlog and i'm like wait, where is that?
I want to know and i want to go there.
So i'm just trying to like be better with that.
I got an iced vanilla oat milk latte.
That's my coffee order and then i also got avocado toast with cilantro.
I love cilantro and it's kind of like a hit or miss for people.
Unfortunately, I am faced with my own doings.
I've put off cleaning my fridge out for so long.
Not like in a gross way, I've thrown out like the really expired stuff.
That sounded scary.
When people ask what your least favorite chore is, usually people say the bathroom.
For me, it's like going through my fridge.
I don't know why.
This is what it looks like.
I don't even have that much in here because I really desperately need to go grocery shopping.
Especially after going out of town on like a trip, I always just try to go through my fridge because sometimes things sneak through the cracks in the back.
I'm on a roll.
Oh, let me show you, actually.
My fridge looks a lot better.
I have no food in here.
I really need to go to the grocery store, but at least it's more organized now.
Since I'm in a cleaning mood right now, I'm gonna take advantage of this motivation that I suddenly have do some of my dishes that I haven't done.
I don't have a dishwasher, as you guys know, so they all just collect in here.
I'm usually good at this, actually.
I do my dishes every night.
Last night I couldn't.
Cleaning is done for now.
I've been looking at apartments online for the past couple weeks few well, months actually since i want to move and i actually just got an email from one of the realtors and he said i can come by and look at one of the apartments that i'm interested in, or like one of the ones that i saved in 20 minutes.
A lot of these things are like really last minute, So we'll see how it is.
I don't really know.
A lot of the times you just don't know until you're there.
What's actually crazy about my apartment right now is I didn't even tour it before I signed my lease, which is not something I recommend.
Definitely don't do that.
Thankfully it didn't turn out like awful for me or anything, but I was in Minnesota and I just kinda hoped for the best, which is very questionable decision I made.
But we're not even gonna get into that.
Anyways, I'm gonna get ready and go to this showing because I wanna go before he leaves.
All right guys, i got back.
I actually like that apartment.
It has the things that i'm wanting in it mainly like just a different location from where i'm at now is like the main reason i'm wanting to move.
I'll get back to you guys.
You guys will be seeing moving vlogs probably soon.
I love the night time, specifically when i stay in i'll light a candle and just read a book, some music, specifically sabrina carpenter.
Um wow, how many times am i gonna bring her up in this video?
I don't know.
That's a challenge, challenge of this video.
Oh also, i did just order dinner.
I'm eating out twice in this vlog because i have no groceries.
So i ordered my go-to taco bell.
But i'm gonna go down and grab some packages first.
I have some in my mail room.
I just got a notification.
So wow, first world problems.
But i'm actually really upset.
I went down there because i got a notification that my packages delivered, but there's a photo of them, of my packages, and they're not there and i usually wouldn't be that disappointed.
But these are like really important packages.
I don't know what to do because it's gonna be too late for me to reorder these.
Don't leave your packages out for longer than 20 minutes because i guess someone's gonna come steal it.
I've actually like never really had that problem and everyone in New York always complains about it.
So I think it was overdue for me for someone to steal my stuff.
This Taco Bell really came at a good time for me.
I'm still mad.
I'm still mad about the package.
Taco Bell haul.
You guys thought we were going to eat this without a haul?
That's not the case.
This is crazy.
Two sauce packets.
I don't know how people even get by.
It's just two.
Wow, I'm sorry.
I'm complaining.
This is really annoying.
I'm going to stop.
My Taco Bell order is the Vegetarian Crunchwrap Supreme.
So they put black beans in it instead of...
The beef, also mild sauce because I'm a wimp.
And then two of their Cinnabon Delights.
I kinda need to just taste test it for you guys.
Eating the sweet before isn't right, but I'm gonna just do it.
Mm, I'm happy now.
I thought this would be probably like a good time for me to do that little advice segment that we've been doing recently.
Okay, I went through my DMs and I just found a question.
Also, I don't know what makes me qualified for this because really there's nothing that does.
Hey Syd, I've wanted your advice ever since you post your advice in your videos.
Basically, I really want to make the most of my daily life, but I have no one to do it with and all of my friends have their main best friend and I'm no one's main best friend, which makes me feel so lonely and have no motivation to go on adventures every day, even though I want to.
And I think this is most teenagers' problems that they do nothing with their life and spend it on their phones.
So I hope you see this.
Love you a lot.
I love you too.
This actually makes me really sad because it kind of reminds me of when I was in high school.
I had a really hard time because I was so lonely and I felt just like this.
I remember when I was younger and the importance of having a best friend and having them kind of labeled, entitled in your mind of who that person is and that everyone like needed to have a best friend.
As I've gotten older, I've just really valued having close friends and, like a lot of my close friends, I would consider my best friends.
I don't single one out and like put them above all of my other friends.
So don't put too much pressure on yourself to find and like label to have a best friend.
What's more important is to have, even if it's a couple, close friends.
The labels don't matter as long as you know that your close friends are really good friends that care about you.
I know like, who my closest friends are, but i don't like pick one and like call them my best friend, i guess because i love all of my friends and i love my close friends So much.
So I hope that makes you feel like a little bit better that you shouldn't have that pressure or feel that pressure to have a best friend.
But on the other side, I understand how, like some of your best friends maybe don't prioritize you as much because they prioritize other friends, which is the worst feeling.
I don't think you need one best friend though to do everything with.
Sometimes certain friends are good for different things, and that's something that my mom has always told me.
Like sometimes like almost categorizing your friends like this friend is a good going out friend.
This friend doesn't like to go out.
She's more of a friend that maybe I would go to for serious advice.
Some of my friends encompass all of them.
I don't think you need to have one friend that is committed to doing everything with you.
That's almost like more stressful, in a way.
I really like though, that you're trying to be conscious to not go on your phone and should just be with friends.
I think that's actually like really mature of you, sometimes just reaching out to people who maybe they're not your closest friends, but you want to get to know them more and maybe they'll put in more effort than you thought and the friendship will grow that way.
Not 100 equal it's never going to be 100 equal but equal enough where the effort is shared.
You don't want to be friends with people who aren't wanting to hang out with you because at the end of the day, like that's not even a friend then.
I hope that answered your question.
I guess i would just try to reach out to other people and not put so much pressure on having a singular best friend and know that you can do things by yourself.
You guys know i love doing things by myself.
I'm editing this right now and I just realized I didn't film an outro.
I'm still in the apartment hunting process, so I'll keep you guys updated and try to vlog more of that, because I think that's really fun.
And let me know what other videos you guys wanna see.
I love hearing it.
But I love you guys and I'll see you in my next vlog.
Bye guys.
