I'll have a cup of Americano
Can I add some milk?
Here you go
I haven't seen them since Thanksgiving
So I miss them a lot
And I've been feeling quite homesick these days
And unfortunately since they decided to retire in Asia for the next year or two
Unfortunate for me but I'm really happy for them because they love it over here
I will just have to come to Asia every time I want to see them
And it's not that easy because of the time difference and just how far it is
And I can't just take a couple days of PTO
So I need like minimum two weeks
There's this little boy staring at me recording
Hi
Okay
You know I feel a little bit more confident vlogging here
Because people already stare at you anyways
So you just kind of stare back
It literally does not matter here
Mom said you talk too much
Yeah
Mom said you keep talking like that
Your dad's mouth is for food
I want to be like my brother and drive a car to get food
But I don't know how to drive
What?
You do know how to drive
What are you talking about?
You don't know how to drive?
Don't you have a license?
How old are you?
65
Really?
So you can't drive at 65?
Yes
Yesterday I was talking to my dad
And we realized that we've been living in this area for over 20 years now
I thought we moved here when I was in middle school
But apparently it was towards the end of elementary school
But I remember running along this river since I was like 11 or 12
So lots of miles ran here
It's also been interesting eating out this trip
My parents don't cook at home anymore
Because it's just the two of them
So if they cook a lot then there's a lot of leftovers
But if they go out and eat
They really can't order that much
So it's still like two dishes and they still take things home
And it just made me realize how lively it was back in the day
Where I remember getting into fights with my grandpa
Because when dinner time rolls around
There's always plans
Like we'll eat at home or we'll have a reservation
Or we'll go see family friends
Because the summers are when we're here
So it's really busy, really lively
And I remember begging him
Like please let me stay another hour at the ice rink
So I can hang out with my friends
Like please can I go get boba with them before dinner
And now I just really miss those days
You know where we do have plans
And we do have something to look forward to at the end of the day
We do end the day with a nice big family meal
I guess you really don't understand how to cherish the good times
Until they're gone
It's time to pack up
Got a lot of stuff for my mom
Some of these are PR
And some of these were PR
And then I tested them and I really loved them
So then I bought it for her too
These two are foot creams
That L'Occitane sent
I love L'Occitane products
For your feet
She also loves L'Occitane products
For your feet
Toner
This one is from Lancome
This is the one I showed you yesterday
So cute
This is for fun
But I think you'll like it
I like it
And then she asked for a lot of face masks
These I'll use my own money to buy
So this is one of my favorites
This is the Torridon Dive-In Mask
This one she actually asked for
This is the Dr. Jart one
This one is so good
This is the Biodance
The one that you leave on overnight
And then it becomes like transparent
This one is similar
This one is from Medicube
And it's also the transparent kind too
Oh my gosh
I love this one
If you wake up that day
And you feel like your face is very oily
You leave it on for 10 minutes
It's very cold
When it's cold you
Like this?
Yes
You can try it first
If you
This brand is quite expensive
She gave it to me first
She really gave it to me
I really like it
$70
No, I already have one
But I'm just using it for fun
But I think you'll like it
$10
That's it
Thank you
You're welcome
I can buy more now
We just finished lunch
And now me and my mom are going to go shopping
I feel like we've been going shopping everyday
But I still need to find
Two different dresses
For the wedding in Taiwan
I found absolutely zero
So hopefully
I'll be able to find something today
She's found something every single day
She's bought like a lot of stuff
Right mom?
That's a yes
And then my dad just went home
Because he wanted to take a nap
So it's just going to be us
For a couple hours
Girl time
We're taking a little break
We bought so much stuff
These are all mine actually
And I think my mom bought a little bit
I got my favorite
Chicken egg
She just made it
Very fresh
Is it good?
My mom keeps trying to convince me
To go get my nails done
And it's because I'm so tired
She's like a professional shopper
And she can walk for hours
And look I'm kind of tired
After like an hour or two
So she's just trying to get rid of me
So she can go and shop herself
Right mom?
I feel like I'm cheating on Charlie's tea
I just walked by this place
And it has like a nice seating area
It's called Cha Hua Nong
There's so many of these now
But it's pretty inexpensive
This one is 20 RMB
So it's like less than $3
Mom
There's like a lot of people cosplaying here
And my mom keeps
Calling them out
Let's go
This one's getting impatient
I'm currently doing a little bit of shopping
By myself
My parents are getting a massage
They go every day
If not every other day
They deserve it
But I decided to sit it out
I'm currently at my favorite place
Everyone say it with me
Charlie's tea
I bought some crushed pecans from them
They put this as a topping for one of their drinks
It's so good
But I've never like bought it individually before
So let's try it out
Oh it's literally like
Crushed
It did say it was crushed
But I thought it was like the whole pecan
Pe-can
How do you pronounce it?
Pe-can?
My mom took so many pictures
Thank you mommy
You guys see the pictures?
And give some hugs to my mom
Can you say a word for me?
I found that most of the meetings
You guys have
Most of them
Are about
Adolescence
Compared to
These two words
It's hard to say
It means
Time really flies
It's a kind of appreciation
It's not regret
It's like
It's been more than 60 years
A lot of things have passed
It's a kind of initial wish
It's called
It means
You still have some time
To cherish
I still have 3 years
To cherish
It's like you still have some time
To cherish
But I don't have the time
I'll talk to you later
We have to do it
Right
Yes
