Hey guys! Happy Tuesday!
I just got outta the shower because I went to the gym today and I'm feeling pretty good.
I wanted to let you guys know that I filmed a video with Kin. It's called "Home Is..."
and it's basically me talking about what home means to me.
Talking about my childhood, my upbringing. So if you guys are interested in watching that
Feel free to click here or click the description box. I'll leave the link down there too.
Today is pretty jam packed. I'm shooting with my friend, Silas, who owns the brand Team Cozy.
So I'll be rocking a bunch of his stuff.
I gotta eat this pretty fast cos I gotta get ready. I'm starting from scratch. Wet hair and everything.
So I'm gonna eat this as fast as I can.
Alright so here we are at location.
We are shooting at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. We always like to go to the back
because that's where all the beautiful-ness is. There's sculptures. A lot of people get their engagement pictures here
Morning. Today is a bizarre and devastating day. It looks like Trump is the President of the US
I know I never talk politics on my channel. I never talk about my spiritual beliefs
But I thought that I should say something about this. At least!
I feel like this election has been kind of a wake up call for me.
If I'm going to be completely truthful I haven't been very involved in watching this political space
with all elections. It just felt like a clown show.
Obviously I didn't want Trump to win, but it wasn't enough for me to go out and vote.
I'm really embarrassed to say that, but for those who didn't vote like me, but aren't happy with the results
This is a wake-up call for us. We can't continue to be apathetic with what's going on in the political space
because four years is a long time.
I'm just filming this so I don't forget how I felt. I'm telling you guys so you can keep me accountable.
My excuse was that I knew that California was gonna be a Democrat anyway.
We always are. We always vote left, so I knew our state was good
But what if I was living in Florida or another swing state?
I shouldn't do all these "what if" situations because that's not the point.
The point is that if you didn't vote this year and you're unhappy with the way things came out
You gotta remember this feeling and gotta vote in the next 4 years.
So despite all the drama that's going on, I still had to get ready for my day.
I know a lot of activities feel a little secondary especially after the news, but the show must go on.
I have a shoot with Kore Am which is an Asian-American publication.
I'm gonna be in their December issue so very excited about that. I'll let you know how that goes.
What's up, guys? Here I am at the Line Hotel.
I'm doing my Kore shoot. This is one of first looks.
We're doing 4 looks today. Already smashed out my interview so we're off to a good start.
Alright that's a wrap on the shoot. Thanks everyone
Good morning, everyone! It is Thursday.
Ben went to New York this morning at 7am. He's seeing his best friend from England
I'm dogsitting Mochi right now cos Ashley popped out for a lunch meeting.
Cheeki is so happy to have her big sister. Literally Cheeki loves Mochi so much.
She's like the annoying little sister always trying to tag along
But anyway today is just gonna be a solid day of editing.
I really have to get this Jennvember #1 episode out.
So I've literally just been editing all day. I got ready, but didn't film that
I'm actually going to Revolve's Winter Formal later.
I wanted to share with you guys some really exciting news
So I shot with Local Wolves back in September and the issue is finally out!
I'm on their November cover and here's what it looks like
So here's the cover. I'm on the Girl Power issue.
My thing starts on page 52. I'll leave a link in the description box so you can read it.
I'm really really happy with the way it came out.
Here we are at the 2nd annual Winter Formal by Revolve.
I'm with Silas. - Hi!
and my girls. - Hi - Soph & Em
As you know Ben is in New York. He would've been my date
but Emily will suffice.
I'm just kidding. Emily's the best date.
She was thinking about getting me a corsage, but is there anything on here?
This is bigger than last year!
There's a huge dance floor. I got all my girls here.
Oh haaay!
Oh, taking the crown?
I'm with Chriselle! We have matching earrings!
We did not plan this!
It is the morning after and surprisingly I'm not hung over.
I'm just really tired because...
Oh my gosh! She's going pee!
Good girl!
My little girl just voluntarily peed on her pad again.
It's always very exciting when I see that puddle on this pad.
You're such a good girl. Thank you for peeing in your pad
Alright so where we?
Finally uploaded the first episode of Jennvember. Feeling good.
My mom has the day off of work today because it's Veteran's Day
so I'm gonna go hang out with her. Bring Cheeki with me
Oh! We can take Cheeki on her first walk actually
That should be really exciting.
Check out that lens flare on the corner.
First off, I know I should get Cheeki a car seat. That's the next thing I need to do.
I don't know why I'm wearing such a vampy look just to see my parents.
It was supposed to be a fresh-faced dewy look
and then what I thought was gonna be a nude
was actually a dark brown.
Yeah, it's like a dark mauve.
But I like it. I think it looks good.
Just not what I was expecting.
Also for those who were wondering what's on my nails, I really wish I had a specific nail varnish that I could tell you.
I got this done at a salon and they used this really cool chrome dust thing and they applied it that way
So I have no idea what color it is.
I made it to my parents' house. Got my big bro, James, in the mix.
This is what is for dinner. We've got ddakbokumtang and kimchi gook.
- So what are you up to tonight?
I don't know. I went out yesterday so I'm just kinda in the mood to chill
but I feel like because it's Friday I feel... - Like you need to do something?
Yeah, like a slight obligation to go, but I don't know.
- I wouldn't feel that way. - Really?
- Yeah. Today I don't even care. I just wanna stay home.
That's true.
I'm vlogging. I feel like I should do something mildly entertaining as well
but I mean I know you guys don't care if I just stayed in tonight. No one would care.
Are you enjoying your walk?
Back at home now. It was so awesome getting to see my mom and my brother
It was so great walking Cheeki for the first time. She's such a good girl.
It's so cute seeing how unsure she was about different surfaces like grass.
We walked for a good mile. Over a mile. She wouldn't pee or poo
and I think it's because she's not used to being outside. So right when we got back indoors she peed and pooed on my mom's floor.
so that kind of sucked.
We're gonna figure it out though.
I think it's because she's only known how to use this pee pad in this specific area.
She doesn't know how to use the pee pad at my parents' house, so we'll get there. She's only a pup.
It's 8:00.
I'm just transcribing Jennvember #1
I feel like I always do this whenever I feel kinda restless, but I don't wanna work, but I don't wanna do nothing.
So I just end up writing captions for videos, which I think is...
is it counter productive?
I don't know. Does anyone even turn on the subtitles on Youtube? If you do, let me know in the comments.
Wow! There are protesters outside my building.
This is insane. It's the Donald Trump protest going on.
Yesterday I saw this documentary called 13th. It describes how slavery still exists today, but through the prison system
and it's being protected by the 13th amendment.
If you haven't seen this documentary on Netflix, you have to because this is my first time hearing about something like this
and I'm sure a lot of people are the dark, like I am. I feel like it's so relevant to watch it especially at a critical time like this.
Once again I didn't think I was gonna get political, but I mean there's stuff happening right outside my window
and it's it's not right not to make any commentary about it.
and I'm so proud of these people walking on the streets.
Everywhere we go
The people wanna know
Who we are?
So we tell them
We are California
This is the Donald Trump protest and it's growing by storm. I think we're walking to City Hall.
Cheeki and I are out on the road. That protest was amazing.
The entire time I was walking, I had freaking chills.
We're going to the pet shop to get her groomed and we'll see how she turns out
This is Cheeki's before.
Giant ball of fluff.
This is Cheeki after she's been to the groomers.
Here's a full body turn.
Oh my god. Look how tiny she actually is. My little rat.
Not much going on today other than editing.
Last night was so much fun
I really gotta catch up with some core people in my life
First I got to see Breann. I've known her since 1st grade and we went to school up until I transferred to UC Davis.
so we go way back.
Ostrich Farms was delicious.
I highly highly recommend you go there
Then after I met up with Claire and Steph
and we basically hung out in her new loft and we just talked for a solid four hours
It was just amazing getting to catch up.
Those types of friends are ones that when you see them, it's like nothing has changed
I think that's what true friendship is.
It's not always feeling heckled to text em to see if they're alright
It's just a common understanding that I'm here for you whenever you need me
and when we do get together it's just an amazing bond.
I had a really good weekend.
I think it's important that I know how to spend my time without Ben as well
I was proactive and made my own plans.
I reached out to people It was a good feeling.
Very rewarding, but today a day of ISOLATION!
I'm just gonna edit
I'm excited. I love working.
This is a good outlet for me, but yes
