Hello.
3
So, I'm starting this vlog off because I am heading over to my woodworking class.
4
As you can tell, I got my own safety classes.
5
We're making a bench.
6
So it's my first ever real woodworking class.
7
I did the safety class before, but This is a two week long course.
8
One class today, it's three hours and then next weekend it's another three hours
9
and then by the time that that's over I will hopefully have a functional bench
10
that we can have in the house or maybe in the backyard.
11
I'm excited, I'm nervous.
12
I haven't really done classes like this in a while so it'll be fun.
13
I'm bringing my water bottle.
14
Okay, I'm I'm running slightly behind.
15
I love it.
16
We need to take it.
17
You guys, I finished my first woodworking project.
18
Look at my bench.
19
Um, oh, wait.
20
I'm gonna put it down over here.
21
Look at it.
22
Imagine if I just sat on it and it immediately collapsed.
23
I can't believe I made this.
24
Well, I mean, I kind of can.
25
It's not like a super complicated thing or anything, but this is my first time making something with wood.
26
And it looks better than I expected it to.
27
The class was so much fun.
28
And now I have something that we can actually use and we can put it in the house.
29
And it makes me really excited to make other things.
30
So let me bring it closer.
31
It's kind of a weird angle.
32
I'm gonna sign up for another class later I'm either gonna do the end table class
33
or the cutting board class probably the end table though
34
Because I feel like I'll learn more from
35
that class than doing the cutting board one This is the
36
first time I really tried out a new hobby in a
37
while I tried to do a ceramics class a while ago
38
Like wheel throwing and I just didn't really love it something about the process of
39
of ceramics was not super appealing to me.
40
Let me show you a closer look at the bench so you can see my carpentry skills.
41
Also, of course, here's Theo.
42
And then here is Miss Winnie on her cat tree.
43
Check out this bench.
44
So we sanded it.
45
And so it kind of has smooth corners here.
46
I'm planning to paint it.
47
I'm gonna prime it and then paint it and I'll show you the colors I was thinking of doing.
48
So it's nothing, you know, it's not like a super special bench.
49
It's not perfect or anything, but I made it.
50
And this is the first thing I've ever made.
51
And I'm going to be able to use it for my plants and get that.
52
It's also not like super, super basic looking.
53
Like it kind of has some design going on.
54
I've been looking at my Ferron Ball color card sheet.
55
I'm thinking of either doing this color, Yeebridge Green, or I think this is the right color.
56
It's called Acuria Blue.
57
I've always really liked those two colors, so I'd like to paint this bench either one of those.
58
We use green a lot, though.
59
Like, we have green on the bench.
60
Or not the bench.
61
We have green on the chair.
62
But I feel like the blue could kind of tie in with this blue pot that we'll eventually have a plantain.
63
All right, Dio.
64
Look at you.
65
Look at you little guy, look at you.
66
I'm thinking of putting it here for now, so that way I can put plants here so they can get some of the south facing light.
67
And a reason why I decided to paint it and not stain it, well there's two reasons.
68
It's because the wood itself isn't really that nice, and also there are visible screw heads on the top.
69
We did domino joints throughout most of the bench, but there are eight screw heads that you can see on top.
70
So I want to do wood filler on top of those
71
and then paint over it so that way you can't see those.
72
And also I feel like eventually we are going to have a lot of wood throughout the space
73
so I think it would just be better to paint it
74
and also it allows me to use some of the fair and ball colors that I've wanted to use for a while.
75
Ideally I would have this centered with the window but Winnie's cat tracer and she loves this spot so it's in there.
76
I've had just like a couple of random plants here by this window
77
so I'm happy to be able to move them now.
78
Okay this one's here.
79
Also don't mind that black mat out there that's Winnie's litter mat it just got a bit dirty
80
so we cleaned it and it's drying out there.
81
This beautiful coleus.
82
I'm gonna trim this coleus though because it it's grown so much.
83
I'm gonna insert a before picture because yeah it's really grown a lot.
84
I love this plant.
85
I think it's a great indoor plant and it just brings so much color into your plants.
86
So if you have like a lot of green plants you can add some interest with a bunch of different coleus varieties.
87
There's like purple ones, there's more red ones, there's like orange, multi-color, and they also grow in this kind of fun funky way.
88
Like the branch is It's kind of gnarled now.
89
And yeah it's really formed an interesting shape.
90
If I wanted to make more of this I could just put it in water
91
and then it like roots super fast
92
but I don't really need more of these so I'm just going to cut it off and then throw it out.
93
Let me cut it here.
94
Look at that.
95
This plant gets a little bit dirty though
96
because it it sends out a lot of shoots and
97
if it's slightly under watered the older leaves start to brown off and die.
98
So it can be slightly messy so I'm just cleaning it up.
99
I've been really limited lately with where I can place plants
100
so I haven't really been able to do that much stuff with plants
101
and because of the burst pipe and like thinking
102
that we're gonna have to move out temporarily I just don't feel this need
103
or wants to like go out and buy more plants
104
and like set up plants and set up terrariums and aquariums
105
because then I'm just gonna have to move them all anyway and plants and
106
aquariums and terrariums are not easy things to move like they're very delicate
107
so yeah I'm sorry I haven't really really been doing very
108
much plant content lately I really miss it like I really miss having a lot more plants
109
but I'm hoping
110
that once we have a skylight too then we'll just really
111
open up the possibilities of where I can place plants
112
because right now we're just like limited in plant placement
113
which is why I'm happy to have this bench
114
because now we can like have plants here
115
because otherwise they were just sitting on the kitchen counter
116
and then also check out my geranium it flowers pretty often indoors
117
and it also has this cool funky shape to it I feel like coleus
118
and geranium are pretty similar plants and that they usually are grown outside
119
but I think they also make great indoor plants
120
and they take on these fun shapes as they grow out you You know some people would think
121
that this looks kinda ugly and it's not bushy and it's leggy but
122
you know I like those leggy kinda weird sorta ugly plants.
123
I don't know why it's making me like kind of emotional talking about plants right now.
124
I just feel like I haven't been doing that for a while.
125
And it's just reminding me of so many things and like bringing back a lot of memories.
126
Um, just like the way I'm talking about my plants and describing them.
127
It's making me think of a bunch of old videos that I've done and also a lot of my old plants. And, yeah.
128
I don't know.
129
I think, I'm going to be honest, I think after the fire, I haven't really, like, discussed it too much.
130
But in regards to, like, plants and plant keeping, the fire was really tough for me.
131
because I feel like all like the garden and the plants
132
and the house plants that I curated and I've nurtured
133
and I've taken care of like having them just be gone was really tough
134
and it kind of felt like replacing them wasn't enough it's kind of okay it's not exactly like this obviously
135
but the closest thing I can think of is like
136
if you have a pet
137
that dies like you can't just replace the pet like it's just not the same you know
138
and that's kind of just like how I felt with my
139
plants it's like kind of complicated in my head too it's complex I don't even think I'm really describing it
140
that well yeah I love plants obviously like I love plants and I love taking care of them but
141
I feel like after the fire something kind of shifted yeah I'm hoping
142
that once we're able to have the skylight
143
and then once the insurance thing is figured out then I'll be able to like find a lot of
144
that joy again that I had with my plants um
145
because like just talking about them them like I said talking
146
to you about them really just kind of like made me happy.
147
I'm really happy that I finally ended up going to the woodworking class.
148
It's been something that I've said I wanted to do for months now
149
and I finally just did it and I have a bench.
150
How cool is that?
151
And it's something that I've kind of been struggling with as I've gotten older.
152
I wonder if any of you can relate too but like
153
when I was younger I kind of felt like I could do anything.
154
I could learn anything as long as I applied myself I can become good at something
155
and for some reason as I've gotten older I don't know
156
if it's just from experience or what
157
but like I have kind of told myself like what is the point of learning something new like there are
158
so many other people
159
that can just do it better than me like what's the point of even trying
160
and that's just like not a good way to go about
161
life like how are you going to learn anything new how are you going to become
162
whatever it is that you want to become if you're not even letting yourself try.
163
I think a part of it is that like as I've gotten older,
164
failing or like being bad at something doesn't seem as like forgivable because I'm older.
165
Like when you're younger, you can make a lot of mistakes.
166
You can be bad at stuff and it's fine because you're young and you're inexperienced.
167
But for some reason, I like equate age with proficiency at pretty much anything
168
and that's just not the case um what else
169
oh huge well potentially huge update about the insurance we got an email saying
170
that they will complete their determination by the end of this month this month being august
171
so by august 31st we should hopefully have an answer according to the insurance who knows
172
if they're actually going follow through with it.
173
But that is the most concrete update we've ever gotten from them.
174
So I'm really hopeful that something comes of it, but we'll see.
175
I just, I think
176
that this like burst pipe thing has kind of been difficult for me more
177
so than I thought because like the house is linked to me in so many different ways.
178
First of all, it's our place where we live.
179
It's our housing, it's our security, but then it's also a space for my own personal creativity.
180
Like I get a lot of fulfillment from changing stuff around the house
181
and decorating and putting plants in places and kind of like forming a cozy environment that's reflective of us.
182
And we just haven't really been able to do it.
183
And then also the house feels kind of tied to my content creation
184
and my career and because of the burst pipe it feels like everything's sort of been halted and
185
so i just cannot wait for this era of the burst
186
pipe to be behind us my parents are coming over
187
and we're gonna hang out eat good food cook like always
188
and do some stuff around the house
189
but we're also gonna go to the Descanso Gardens
190
and right now the Descanso Gardens have these giant sunflowers out
191
that just started blooming so we're gonna go see that and it's really hot like it's really really really hot.
192
We're going through a heat wave right now.
193
What other place?
194
These are huge.
195
Oh you can see this one.
196
It's still down.
197
Wow.
198
These ones are really pretty.
199
And now we're at the railroad station with dinosaurs for some reason.
200
Oh, look at that!
201
Platypus!
202
What are you doing?
203
I'm showing you stuff.
204
I thought he was a rock.
205
Oh, he's so cute.
206
This is the ancient forest.
207
Yeah, sure.
208
Because the trees are crossing crossing.
209
Hey, McGee!
210
Tree ferns.
211
Love tree ferns.
212
Oh, bird's nest fern.
213
It's a pretty big bird's nest fern.
214
Ooh, another tree fern.
215
I love these skinny ones.
216
There's a fly that's getting me.
217
Do you like the table?
218
When I work on our animal, we're going to prepare that.
219
...sizes for 45 seconds on with a 15-second rest, and then we repeat that three times, and the reason we repeat...
220
Oh, it's your first.
221
Yeah.
222
Okay, that's pretty good.
223
Yeah.
224
Yeah.
225
You're able to pass it.
226
Oh, I thought it was that way.
227
You will love it, Danny.
228
You could be Jennifer's friend.
229
That's her name.
230
Love.
231
Okay, I guess my parents are gone.
232
And I also have the hiccups, but Chris and I were at a retro arcade right now.
233
And so we're just, you know, having fun, playing some games.
234
We're playing Street Fighter.
235
Cool.
236
We're playing Street Fighter right now.
237
Who do you guys think is gonna win?
238
Okay, cast our votes.
239
Now let's see.
240
I'm not doing anything.
241
I'm not doing anything.
242
I can't tell what's going on.
243
Wait, that's so close!
244
It was pretty fun.
245
That was Neon Retro Arcade.
246
Now we're gonna go get ice cream.
247
My neighbor, they just got a new kitten.
248
And I wish that she wasn't an outside cat, but they leave her outside.
249
And she likes to come into our yard.
250
And she's so cute.
251
Her name's Mitsubi. And she's really playful.
252
And she's a tiny little orange cat.
253
I wish that they kept her inside, because it's not really safe out here.
254
With all the coyotes and, you know, everything
255
but can't really do too much about that you know
256
but she's so cute i just wanted to say
257
that i did see some comments in the last vlog pretty much saying
258
that like i ignore winnie or that she's not loved
259
but she is so incredibly loved i just don't get
260
that many shots of her because usually she's sleeping during the day
261
and i only ever really interact with her
262
when she wants to be interacted with otherwise she just gets kind of like upset at me
263
and just walks away from me.
264
I really had to learn how to interact with her
265
because I've had dogs all my life
266
and I just kind of like love on them all the time
267
but with her everything is on her terms
268
so I've really had to learn to hang back a little bit
269
and not do too much with her
270
but yeah she comes to me you know
271
when she wants to be played with and
272
if she doesn't come to me then I just leave her alone yeah Winnie is
273
so loved um Chris also plays with her every single night
274
and yeah don't worry you guys she is being treated very well well okay
275
so lately I've been trying to improve my posture.
276
So I've been doing this pretty much every day, hoping that it will get rid of my gamer neck.
277
I've had pretty bad posture for most of my life, honestly, so this will take a while to correct.
278
Actually, one of the reasons why I started exercising and lifting weights
279
was because I read that a way to fix your posture is to get more back muscles, so that way you can like you know support yourself
280
if my back was stronger then I would just naturally get better posture
281
but that hasn't necessarily been the case
282
and now my back is a lot stronger than it was before
283
and I still tend to hunch over I hope
284
that this ends up helping
285
and I think it is I also just need to be more aware of my posture and try
286
and sit up straight even though it's kind of uncomfortable okay
287
speaking of posture I have a kind of embarrassing story about this posture brace that I got.
288
And I was kind of debating on whether I should even tell you because I am somewhat embarrassed by it.
289
But I told you some other stories in a previous vlog.
290
And a lot of people enjoyed that and it was fun for me.
291
I don't really talk about a lot of things like this.
292
I think it'd be sort of fun.
293
So I'm aware that posture braces aren't really the best thing for your posture
294
because it's more of a crutch and it weakens your back muscles and it doesn't really help you long term.
295
But, I was watching a Caroline Winkler video and in the comments, there was a comment that had like 60 something likes and it was saying something along the lines of,
296
Caroline, I can tell your posture has gotten so much better in just a couple of videos.
297
It must be the posture brace that you've bought and used, the Vortalex Neo something.
298
and I was like, oh, like if it worked for Carolyn, she looks like she has great posture.
299
Let me look this up.
300
So I look up the posture brace
301
and I just like vaguely skimmed the website really quick
302
and it says that it works differently than other posture braces
303
and it actually helps to fix it and it's not like a crutch that weakens her back muscles.
304
So I'm like, perfect.
305
This is exactly what I've been looking for.
306
And also if it's good enough for Carolyn and it worked for her, then it's good enough for me.
307
Like if it's good enough that someone commented that it worked for her, it must be great.
308
So usually I don't do this.
309
Usually I really research what I'm buying.
310
So I buy it and a few days go by and I'm like, hmm, you know, I wonder what kind of technology this contains that makes it better and different from other back braces.
311
Cause it looks pretty similar to all the other ones.
312
I decided to go on YouTube to look at reviews.
313
You guys.
314
So this was the first video I saw.
315
I have a lot of questions about whether the Vortalex Nao2 posture corrector works
316
and if you should spend 20 bucks to get it.
317
Now obviously this is- Okay, that's an AI doctor, fake degrees in the back.
318
So I'm like, okay, maybe this is just an affiliate code video thing where someone's trying to get like affiliate commissions
319
on this product.
320
I'm in denial at this stage.
321
So then I go to the next video.
322
I have been struggling with my potchester lately because of working long hours and Also another AI video.
323
So I'm like, okay, maybe it's because I'm on YouTube shorts.
324
So let me look for a long form video.
325
I recently bought this posture corrector that I kept seeing everywhere mentioned online.
326
So I thought I'd give it a try.
327
Okay, this isn't even the worst part.
328
Look at this about your posture.
329
Wear it for a few days and let me know how it feels, okay?
330
Yes, let's do it.
331
One week later. So, how was it?
332
What do you think about it?
333
Honestly, the first two days it was uncomfortable, but I guess it's...
334
And then, okay, I go to the website, and then I notice that the website also is full of AI images.
335
So then I realized I just bought like a scam, I guess it's not a scam because the product is here and it looks like the product,
336
but like I kind of got duped by the AI comment spam bots
337
And I would have never bought it if I knew that you know That comment was fake.
338
Um, yeah, usually I like I've never gotten duped like this before I'm usually very literate on the internet
339
and also to top it all off
340
There are other youtubers that I watch
341
and they also have the same comments in their comment section
342
with like around 60 likes all advertising the Vortalex Neo Pole 2, I think is the name.
343
But you know what I realized is that they haven't commented on my videos yet.
344
So I'm like, is my channel not good enough to scam people?
345
So this rug used to be in the bedroom and it was in the bedroom of our old apartment too.
346
Now we have a different rug in the bedroom that fits
347
that space better and I just brought this rug out
348
because Whitney and Theo really like to play on rugs
349
so we've been like playing with them on here and like throwing toys and stuff.
350
This rug I think would actually look kind of good in the living room because of the color.
351
But an issue with this one, I don't know if you can tell on camera, I'll bring you closer.
352
It just holds and traps a lot of like hair and lint.
353
And even if you go over it with a vacuum, it doesn't suck it up.
354
I got this.
355
It's a little rug rake, I believe is the name.
356
I need to get a bigger one because this is so small, but it works really well.
357
Did you see how it just traps all of this hair?
358
And when we go over it with the vacuum, it doesn't suck it up.
359
But look at this.
360
It's also very satisfying.
361
And you can kind of see the color change.
362
So this is like a mix of pet hair and fiber from the rug.
363
So yeah, we need a larger one
364
because I don't want to just be doing this all the time with this tiny little rake.
365
But I am going to keep the small one because it's good for smaller areas like the couch
366
Because that also holds some hair from Winnie too.
367
We haven't heard anything from insurance yet But today is only Monday right now.
368
It is August 24th so Hopefully by the end of this week at least we will hear something back from insurance.
369
That would just be so amazing Just to get this behind us before we head out.
370
I'd like to talk about Squarespace who is the sponsor of this video So as you all know, I've been using Squarespace since I started doing content creation.
371
So it's been five years now or a little bit more than five years.
372
And I first started my Squarespace website as a way to drive traffic to my other social media channels
373
because I didn't want to use a third-party linking service.
374
So I made my website landing page like my Instagram, my YouTube, and my TikTok.
375
And as I got further into my content creation, I wanted to start selling products.
376
So I sold things like art and digital products and plants and merch.
377
Squarespace remains makes it easy to claim your name and your own custom URL name.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
