What are you doing?
Okay.
Good morning.
She's smelling rich for coffee.
We're going to get coffee.
Yay.
It's 7:30 in the morning.
I feel like an early bird :)
as soon as you get into this corner, it gets so cold.
Cause of all the buildings and the shades and it gets so windy.
My face is also puffy because of dinner last night.
Yeah, there's a lot of things in combined.
I just said bye to Chaemin, which is kind of sad because it was our first time
seeing each other in five, oh my gosh, five months!
That's a long time, five months.
And we only had half a day to spend together and then, half of that was just us sleeping.
But we just got a good morning coffee before she left.
Went to Pete's.
I got a oatmeal latte and...
Mmmm.
I definitely thought about going back to sleep, or I initially was going to, but then I
got my coffee and I already had my little morning walk to the coffee shop, that I think
I'm going to just stay awake and have a good long day.
So I'm just going to plan out my day.
And also, I think I'm going to make myself an avocado toast with the Truff hot sauce on top.
That sounds really good with egg.
There you go.
Thank you.
So this is a avocado toast with avocado, fried egg and then pickled onion, which is homemade
and apparently really good, according to my sister.
And then I'm just going to drizzle a little bit of the Truff hot sauce.
Cause I want to see how this hot sauce would taste with avocado toast.
I haven't worked out in a while, so I'm going to utilize a gym here.
had to do a voiceover because I couldn't talk in the gym while I do this, but right here
I am "activating the glutes" as they call it.
It's basically warming up your muscle.
So you know exactly which muscles to use for your bigger weight workouts.
You can definitely look up glute activation workout videos on YouTube, and really learn
how to use these muscles so that you can have an effective workout.
After that, I do some dumbbell workouts to again, isolate my glute muscles and then warm
them up, so I know exactly how to use them.
And then here, I just use some weight and not happy about the form, but Yeah.
I'm back from the gym.
And I just did a mild workout.
I sweat a little bit, but not like dripping sweat.
As long as I'm not like dripping in sweat.
I used to be able to kind of just refresh myself, freshen myself at up, and then go
on with my day, right?
But now that we wear masks when we work out, the sweat gets trapped under the mask and
I just feel the need to wash my face and shower as soon as I get back from the gym.
So that it's what I'm trying to do.
Kelly Kim: And also, I feel like a lot of people come
to me for skincare recommendations or skincare videos, but I haven't been on my best skincare
game, myself, being so busy and I've slacked off.
So I'm really trying to get back onto that routine for the new year.
And I love goal setting for the new year, so we can do that more later in the video.
But yeah, skincare is something that I really am trying to get back into and I'll show you
more of that after I get back from taking a shower.
I'm going to use FOREO's UFO 2 today.
I mentioned how I really wanted to perfect my skincare routine.
And this is something that I really want to start incorporating more regularly into my
skincare routine.
This is perfect for an at-home treatment and it's a perfect device to make your skin look
more alive, especially when it's, the skin's so tired and worn out, because of the cold
weather and the wind that blows on your face, and also just from being tired.
This is what it looks like.
It's so tiny, the size of my Palm.
So it's really easy to carry with you wherever you go.
And there are different face masks that you could put into the device.
My favorites are probably the honey one or the green tea, but I used green tea two days ago.
So I don't have that with me right now.
I'm going to use the honey one today.
I am not a big fan of sheet masks.
And that's a controversial thing to say, I guess, because I know so many people love
sheet masks, but for me, I just don't like having a wet piece of cloth over my face and
leave it on for 20, 30 minutes.
That's so restricting for me.
And if it drips down my face, no.
So I love this because you can just get it over with very quickly and it doesn't feel
restricting at all because it's basically just giving yourself a quick massage.
So you take the ring off, add this little
mask part into it, and then you secure it.
Very easy to put together.
The technology of cryotherapy and thermotherapy is in this device, which is such an interesting
concept for a skincare device.
So depending on your routine, the device gets warm or cold, to have different effects on your face.
And just like my Luna cleanser, which I've talked about in my previous videos, it also
has that vibration feature (T-sonic pulsation) to really feel like that treatment that you would get at a spa.
And when you go into the app, it will show you all different programs or routines that
you can do for the day.
And inside the app, you can actually make your own routine, and really customize it
to your liking, to your skincare type and for your needs.
So I think that is really special about FOREO's
devices, but I'm going to use the one that they already made for you for the honey mask.
So you can see it has a red LED light right now, and on the app it will tell you what
the different lighting is supposed to mean and how it's going to help your skin.
And the app just guides you through the whole process.
So right now it's thermotherapy, and it is very warm, and it feels so relaxing...
Feels so good.
So we just went out for a little, short, Target trip, a said "shorget."
We just got back from a short Target trip.
We went right on our lunch break and I'm going to give you guys a haul, even though half
of this is not my stuff, but that's okay.
So Target, we love a city Target because it
just is so much different from a normal Target.
Normally city targets have two floors and then there's a big escalator in the middle of it.
And there's a separate escalator for carts.
And for me, that was such a... culture shock.
Yeah, that was a big culture shock to me.
I think the cutest thing we found at target today was this cat mom mug.
And this was an impulsive purchase, but it's so cute.
And I love red and pink together.
So that's cute.
And the font is also just a classy font.
And then she got a bamboo spoon.
And if you make fried rice, you know how important this is.
So you don't scratch off the coating on your pan.
We have a box of Cheez-it White Cheddar because
this is my favorite snack ever, probably.
And then I just got a clear Duo lash glue.
And then we stopped by a boba place called Tea%.
It was a small store, but they had really good menu.
They had everything you would really want in a boba place.
Can I have my straw?
I got the iced passion, yuzu green tea with lychee jelly.
Mmmm.
Yeah, it's not too sweet.
Try this.
And then here we have classic black milk tea.
Mmmm.
- You don't like it?
We have a little organizer for the kitchen, and then we have dryer sheets.
I kind of cooked up a nice meal.
Look at that.
I wish we could have made the hash brown really crispy with the air fryer.
I'm really proud of this.
My skin is glowing today.
We're about to go get dinner.
It's a place literally five minutes away, walking distance.
So I think it's about to be, I think it's going to be a brief dinner trip outside.
Cause it's a little cold today.
I am truly conflicted.
My choices are the shrimp shu-mai.
And then the wagyu handroll
It's so soft.
I'm sitting on my sister's desk.
And I was talking about how, this is where she works.
So I was talking about how it's so nice to have this cat bed thing right here.
Because when you get stressed, you can just turn around look at your cute cat and pet
their little fur coat, and it's so soft.
And they're so cute.
It's free therapy.
- Tell them I'm making a YouTube channel.
- You are?
Apparently my sister's making a YouTube channel.
I'm not sure if that's going to happen.
Cause whenever she says something - I've been talking about it for 3 years
she never does it and I make sure to criticize it.
So she gets more annoyed and she actually does it, but it never happens anyway.
So she's probably just saying it just to say it, but you know what I'm going to do right now?
I'm going to make a mood board for 2022.
It's a must.
Every year I start a Pinterest board.
I started off as a mood board for how I want this year to go.
And then throughout the year I just fill it with pictures or pins that resonate with me.
I've been doing this since 2018, but for 2021, I have literally 283 pins, which is amazing
because that tells me that I've been working hard on it.
But I'm going to scroll all the way down to the first few pins that I pinned starting
December of last year.
Oh, I remember a big thing for me this year was, I wanted to or read a lot.
I want study the things that I wanted to study, blah, blah, blah.
So I have a lot of pictures that are a girl reading a book, girl on her laptop.
There are some workout goals type of picture.
Oh my gosh, it keeps doing that.
I was romanticizing college life for sure,
but coffee, warm coffee in hand, planner, again coffee and hand, gym pictures, books, books everywhere.
I was making my mood board.
I was, I kind of don't know what I'm... what I should be looking for.
Cause I don't know what my new year's goal's going to be.
So I transitioned into my Goodnotes app
And then I started thinking about specific goals that I should have for the new year.
And these are the things that I came up with just now.
So I'll probably think about it more and start adding more.
One of the biggest thing for me is setting routines.
I've been talking about this for a while, but setting routines and really finding comfort,
and actual joy with doing these routines, without having to force myself to do these routines.
I want to be doing my morning routine feeling good and being: Oh my gosh, yes, I love this.
So that's something that I'm wanting to work for.
And I wrote down some like details that could go under that.
And for morning routine, that'll be waking up at the same time, incorporating morning
stretches or light workouts, or even walks outside, find healthier breakfast choices
that I could eat in the dorm and also have regular morning journal plans.
And then for night, go to bed at the same time.
No social media after a certain time.
Read fictional books instead of nonfiction, because nonfiction tend to be like, oh, you
have to go do this, go do that.
But then at night you just really want to relax. So fictional books.
And then relaxing skincare routine, shower routine, something to really give me that
relaxing time before bed, so I can get good, so I can get better sleep.
I definitely want to update more and think about this more and I'll update you guys onit, but that is it for today.
I think everyone is feeling very sleepy today.
Nemo, Are you enjoying the view or are you sleeping like that?
I think he's sleeping like this, how cute.
I will see you in my next vlog.
And I just realized that I've been looking at the screen the whole time instead of looking
into the camera but, I'll see you guys in my next video.
Bye.
Nemo, say bye: bye-bye.
You weren't sleeping!
