An Introvert's Guide to New York: Solo Dining, Tuxedo Shopping, and Self-Care

This feel like falling deeper. We just finished eating lunch at Fish Cheeks and now we're going to go look at Tito Sman's first wedding shopping day. I heard the wait was like 2 hours just now. Right after fish cheeks, we just walked over and got Wow, huge show. That's crazy. Okay, let's do a taste test. We actually got our tuxedo from Burgdor and we were in and out in like less than an hour. That was really easy. And now we're going to go to Tiffany's to get our rings engraved. We got our rings in to Tokyo.

Yep. But we didn't have enough days where um we would get the ring all time with the engraving. So we're going to do it here. Yeah, 295. The options are a little more limited. There's another form that I need to steal. I am on my way to dinner and this is my OOTD. I think the attire is more like business casual. It is like a networking event with YouTube. My blazer is from Leha, a Korean brand. I'm wearing a tank underneath. My belt is from Dehance. Skirt is totem that I wear religiously. My heels are from the row that I got in Milan and my bag is from Toan as well. For jewelry, I have a sushi

and my bracelet as well. Before dinner, I am meeting up with Yuen to get frozen yogurt. So, we're going to go to Mimi's Hello. The lighting. No. Wow. It is time for another monthly therapy check-in and we're going to go down memory lane. One thing I learned is how much of who I am today comes from my past. And that's why I love making YouTube videos because I can rewatch my old videos. I just remember every version of myself and I remember what I was going through emotionally and mentally. When I watch my college videos, I can see how lonely and isolated I felt at that time. But I also see growth. I see myself becoming braver

and just learning how to be more independent. Whether it was grief or happiness, I held on to all of it. And all these little moments of my life shaped me to become who I am today. And that's what therapy has been for me. going back to all the memories I used to avoid and finally facing them and slowly healing my inner child. Some things I just couldn't process back then, but now I can. If you're interested in starting therapy, BetterHel, the sponsor of today's video, makes starting therapy very easy.

It is officially starting to feel like spring summer. Today's the first day I had to turn on my AC cuz it is so hot. I'm going to go downstairs and make some cucumber kimchi. Cucumbers are definitely my favorite vegetables. I don't know why people don't like cucumbers. And then I want to also make myself something to eat. And then my favorite part of my makeup is blush and lips. I'm using my Merit Flesh Balm in Stockholm. And then I top it off with Rouge. I'm using the Ever Red and the Chanel dual lip thing. Do you see how little I put on there? Little goes a very long way. And then I use the other side. Just seal it. And that is my everyday makeup. This Ilia base Face Milk, I think this is like a

sample size, but it is so good for like a base under your foundation. Okay, let's go make some kimchi. Let's quickly prep our cucumber kimchi. Here's my cucumber. And I'm going to rinse it. Going to cut it in half. I'm going to cut it to around this part. And I'm going to make a little cross. I have some water here. Going to put some salt. In goes garlic. Add in coar. Now I'm going to refrigerate this and I'm going to try it tomorrow. be making pinña.

This is my favorite one, sesame oil. You can put samjang. I am in the mood for ku jang. That and then some garlic. Now I'm going to prep my veggies for my Korean barbecue. We got gen. It's very fragrant and so good with Korean barbecue. We got our kibian, our veggies. We got our lettuce, Korean peppers, and gy. Got our beef. All right. This is a random drink, but this is all I have in the fridge. Cheers. I'm so hungry. I haven't had that in so long. It's so good.

Got our lettuce. Dip it in the sesame oil. Some kang or samjang. Fried kimchi on top. Garlic noodles in there. Wrap this. garlic. Oh, this is a big bite. Can I do this in one bite? I need to come more often, huh? I need to come here more often. Yeah, it's so nice.
