Final T-shirt design that we’re submitting to the screen printer!

Originally we were going to do white shirts, but we found a really nice cream color instead

My first ever ā€œmerchā€!

JiaHao and I are making shirts for the plant swap we’re hosting on September 17th!!! These are the very rough sketch designs, but I love how they turned out. We’re going with the car one, however, we’re putting the design on the front instead of the back.

We sourced the blank t-shirts locally in Los Angeles and we’re going to get them silk screen printed locally as well. These will be sold at the plant swap, but I’ll also have them online for those of you who aren’t able to ...

šŸ’€šŸ’€ u guys..

There’s this brand that’s sending me some bathroom trash cans as a gift. I actually really like the brand. I’ve had one of their trash for a year and I love it. But I can’t believe they messaged this to me hahahah.


I’m assuming they think I’m Japanese bc of my most recent content?

Theo’s new friend, Marigold

Our landlord recently got a new rescue dog. Her name is marigold and she’s the cutest chihuahua/pug mix. I’m happy Theo has a new buddy. We see her almost everyday for morning play dates. She’s a little crazy for theo sometimes though since she’s still a puppy lol

Just retook my MBTI

Last night I was with my friends and we were talking ab our MBTI personality tests. I retook the test for the first time in years, and I got something I’ve never seen before. It’s interesting to see how I get different results as I’m getting older. From 16-18 I got ENFP, 19-21 INFP, and now I got ISTP.


I’m curious to know what you all get for your personality test. Im going to guess a lot of y’all are INFP/ENFP though


Here’s the test if you haven...

Photoshop Illustrations for a Potential Garden Design

I mentioned this in my podcast, but if you don't know, I'm working with a local landscape design group called Hardy Californians to redo my garden in the front. They only work with native plants, and I like their message and what they do as a company.

To be honest... the illustrations aren't thaaat good, but it gives a decent idea of what the finished product could look like. They're helping with plant selection, design, layout, plant sourcing, and sourcing materials.

Yesterday

Just some pics from yesterday. It’s raining rn but it’s honestly kind of nice. It cools down the weather a bit

I’m in Kyoto!!!

Yesterday was such a long day. A 12 hour flight then another 7 hours of transportation from the Tokyo airport to Kyoto. I think it took longer than it should’ve lol but we were figuring out how the transportation works. It’s around 5 am here and I just walked to a vending machine to get some coffee.


It’s not too hot yet, but it’s still the early morning so we’ll see. I went to Vietnam/Thailand around the same time a while ago so the heat/humidity doesn’t bother me...

The Curtains Are Up!!!

We put the curtains up yesterday. It's unfortunate to block such a large portion of the window, but it's soooo nice to have privacy at night and not feel like we're being watched. It also helps filter the direct sun during the hot hours.

It's messy right now because my parents and brothers are visiting. I was going to record the June podcast on Friday, but they did an impromptu visit, and I haven't had time to record it alone. I'll get it done before I go to Japan, though. Just four m...

June moments

Chris had his family over this past week and we had so much fun doing touristy stuff. Even though Chris and I have lived in LA for 2 yrs, we never really got around to doing tourist activities. We went to theme parks and did a tour of the Warner brothers studio.

Also we went to the LA premiere for the movie Joy Ride. Our friend works at Lionsgate and invited us! I saw Seth Rohan, Stephanie Hsu, and Amber from f(x). I love R rated comedies like this lol. For some reason, the movie White ...

June Updates

I’ve been in a bit of a creative and energy slump lately. I think it’s partially due to the constant cloudy weather we’ve had in California. It looks like it’s clearing up though.

I was being hard on myself because I haven’t been as productive content wise as I normally am. I started posting consistently to social media around 2 years ago, and I’ve never really given myself a break. I decided to give myself a little birthday present and allow myself to just chill out, and n...

Some Updates + Ask me Q's for this Months Podcast!!

I went to a pastry party hosted by my friend Vincent the other day. Chris got tired quickly, lol. Also, this little hamster toy... obsessed. It's made of alpaca fur and is exceptionally soft.

The first ladybug of the season was spotted on my native plants in the front yard! I love ladybugs; I used to catch them at school, then hold them to the sky and watch them fly away. Tomorrow my family is coming, and we're headed to a Renaissance fair. It will be our first time attending one of th...

Some photos from the past week!!

I got these film photos from a friend a few days ago. The pic with Chris and i reminds me of when we were in college bc a lot of our friends would take film pics of us 🤧


We have a hammock up on the balcony!! it’s been such a nice spot to hang out in the morning/evening. The hammock is placed underneath a fig tree that shades our balcony. I’ve loved hammocks since I was a kid, also remind me of vietnam.


And then here’s a pic with me and my mom. we wen...

My first Coachella experience!

I went to Coachella last weekend!! I had a great time. I went for Gorillaz, Willow, Ethel Cain, Charli XCX, Blackpink, and Frank Ocean (😭). Frank Ocean dropped out of weekend 2 but it was still a ton of fun.

I got clothes/accessories from my friends Tyler and Charlie haha bc I didn’t have much to wear for a festival

Need help choosing the thumbnail for this weekends video!!

I think both of these are pretty good. The first one is more dynamic, with interesting poses/large text. But I think the second one is also really cute and minimal.
