Good morning everyone!
Today I am checking out of my hotel Zelos.
You might be confused as why I was at a hotel when I could be just staying with my friends.
But it's because my management company wanted to kind of treat me to a nice day so --
Thank you for doing that for me!
It was perfect because I was right in Union Square.
I got a lot of shopping done. Target is right there.
Trader Joe's is right here.
It was honestly a great location.
I'm just waiting for Janice to pick me up now.
We are going to get coffee and pastries.
Let's start our day!
Janice!
Savory, sweet. And then we got the quick coffee?
It's by Atelier Diar?
She taught me all the cups.
You taught me all the cups.
She taught me about cups!
She did! In Korea, whenever I go to cafes, I always check the bottom of the cup to see what brand it is.
Oh, if it's Acme it's like legit.
If it's not, I'm like, I question.
She's the one that got me to do that.
This is a small two person, based in Oakland.
This?
The cup.
You hear that guys?
There's this ceramic place called Heath too.
Heath? Yeah.
Yesterday, I went to this coffee class with Martin.
I was like, Janice would love this.
I was so confused!
Like Martin, did Joan even like it?
He was like "I'm not sure".
It was fun.
He's like, "I think I need to go again".
With you! You should go with him!
I'm not like, all about super fancy coffee.
I just like places that are pretty good.
This is good.
Oh is it?
The Counter Culture place was kinda pretty.
Oh! You went to Counter Culture?
If Janice approves, it's good.
It's like crispy and flaky.
I just like pastries.
This place is so hipster and she was basically saying that it's the standard now.
This is the norm. If it's not this, people won't come.
Same with Korea.
Korea's is like agijagi, like gwiyeopo.
Yeah.
But they're slowly turning into this though.
Warehouse style.
Yeah, it's like straight up -- like if it's not a barn, people won't come.
I'm back at Joanne's place and there was a package waiting for me.
But I'm pretty sure this is for my brother.
I kinda wanna double check just in case.
I'm eating my Wheat Thins and Chips Ahoy!.
The box was ripped so, that was easy.
Yep, this is definitely for my brother.
Cable.
Abe if your watching, I hope you're happy.
A few more days and I'll be back to deliver this!
And, Shatterstar!
Alright, so right now I'm just gonna wait for Janice.
And I might go to the Golden Gate Park with her for the picnic that Sharon kinda helped organize.
I think until then, I might read one of the books because there are a lot of books to read!
I love this setup!
I'm going to read 'Perks of Being A Wallflower'.
I actually haven't watched this movie or read the book.
So I'm gonna read it first and then maybe I'll watch it in the future.
I'm at Golden Gate Park with Janice!
This has nothing to do with the Golden Gate Bridge.
It's just a very green park.
Yes! We're here for a picnic.
I'm hungry. She's hungry. We're all hungry.
Yeah! I hope there's food left. We're late.
I was waiting for her to finish teaching her children.
Alright, let's go!
So green!
Oh and there's a lake over there!
Is that a lake?
Do you not see it?
That's a lake right?
Yeah, I think it's like a little lake.
How's your hotdog?
Cold.
This is her second one.
She always ate two hotdogs in college.
I want TopDog.
I had it yesterday.
I'll see you Tuesday!
Oh no! We're gonna see each other tomorrow maybe.
Right? Tomorrow?
Oh! Terry?
Yeah, Terry.
We need to all meet up.
Can we try to do this?
It's been a while since you've been.
Yes! Cause I haven't seen her in a while.
I missed all of you guys.
Okay, bye! I'll see you maybe tomorrow?
Bye!
Okay, I'm gonna now hang out with Sam!
I've know him for like a decade so we're gonna hang out.
Yay!
The weather's so nice today.
I'm lucky cause I heard it was super foggy and rainy before I got here.
It got flooded.
Really?
Okay, but yay! We're gonna explore SF now!
Bye Sharon!
Bye Martin!
That was the Golden Gate Bridge.
Oh my gosh! You can see it up there!
Wow!
The iconic Golden Gate Bridge.
It is so beautiful.
Red is my favorite color.
Red?
I love the Crimson Red.
Yeah!
It's so beautiful!
Oh my gosh.
I feel like I can't love red.
Oh cause yeah. Stanford color.
It's okay.
We're at Polk Street for coffee.
This little dog.
Mmm. This is my second cup of coffee.
So yummy.
That was a really good coffee shop.
Very hip.
Very very hip.
Now we're gonna go to Souvla!
I went there last time when I was in San Francisco.
But I really like the food there.
So we're gonna go there. Yeah!
It's so nice today.
Best weather!
It's really packed right now so we're gonna walk around.
He wants coffee.
I don't need another cup.
It was my second cup today!
I am very sensitive to caffeine.
But ever since I came to SF, because coffee culture is so like --
Third wave of coffee.
Yeah, you need like two or three cups so I think once I go back to Korea, I'll be back and I won't be as sensitive.
You should buy a couple beans.
What? Beans?
I know, but I don't have a frenchpress.
I guess.
The pour over. You know the hipster pour over?
Oh, no thanks. I'm done.
I tried learning how to make coffee and drink coffee with Martin the other day.
I was so confused.
Martin, he's so technical.
Yeah.
I got into coffee because of him too.
Oh really?
I love Martin.
We got him a -- for his gift, an actual temperature.
I think we got him one of those mugs too.
We got the chicken salad. He got the chicken salad and fries.
Yum!
Just finished eating!
And now we're gonna look for the Painted Ladies.
I have never seen the Painted Ladies.
Have you?
I drive by it.
I drove by it, but I never took a picture of the Painted Ladies.
So I'm super excited!
But we gotta figure it out.
You want to walk 20 minutes?
Yes, it's gonna take me 40 minutes now.
You do know that right?
20 minutes.
You'll get right on sunset time.
Okay, perfect!
Yes! We want to see it when it's nice a bright.
But we will walk over there cause we need to walk it off.
There they are!
The Painted Ladies.
It's so sunny that I'm walking backwards.
But the Painted Ladies, it's pretty.
But there's construction going on in front of it so --
But yeah, my hair is gold!
This cup is so extra.
They make it, in house.
They made it?
I think so, yeah.
That's crazy.
And they make all their bread.
That's cool.
I'm back home now!
Today was such a spontaneous day.
I actually saw Sam and I was like, 'We need to catch up!'.
So we decided to get coffee, eat dinner, do some sightseeing.
It was a lot of fun.
I hope you guys enjoyed today's vlog and I'll see you guys in tomorrow's.
