Good morning happy Monday and welcome to New York City we’re going to be spending the day together in New York I have a workout class this morning I also have ice skating lessons tonight and I also want to clean up the apartment because it’s been a minute since I’ve cleaned
And like kind of organized things I’m really excited about this morning I am going to Pure Bar I have done Pure Bar in the past I love bar classes baby Ella is also right here do you want to say good morning oh my goodness good morning
MH but let’s go ahead and get up we’re going to make a coffee I need to wash my face like do my skin care oh yeah that feel good it is currently 8:00 a.m. I do have a call with Amy Beth she is a girl that still works for me in Tuscaloosa
She like helps with like deot and like putting out my merch and stuff which if you don’t know my new merch justment live on my channel by the time you’re seeing this there will still be I think like a day or two left of the pre-order
I’ll like pop up up the information here it’s also the city Kitty merch say it was modeled after you City Kitty um but it’s really cute sweatshirts but I have to have like a little meeting with her to see like just like updates and I’m trying to like collect my thoughts
There’s like updates making sure she has like all the supplies she needs I’m going over numbers um and going ahead and sending her some shipping labels they going in your friends are in there okay Ella’s ready for me to get up and also feed her breakfast too The Sun is going crazy right now so I’m going to try and lower my shades now we can actually get ready in chat without it being like all the sun everywhere made my iced coffee for the morning oh my gosh it just got everywhere now it’s time to do my
Morning skin care also definitely going to be having like a little self-care night like my everything shower tonight because I have not tanned in a hot minute and I feel like if you’re a self-tanner girly you know if there’s been a few days that you haven’t self
Tanned you start noticing it oh there’s an eyelash underneath my eye also I can’t remember if Fashion Week is this week or if it’s next week the Spring Fashion Week like New York Fashion Week spring is a lot more chill like there’s not too many things going on like
Whereas in Fall it was crazy but I can’t remember if it’s this week or next week past like couple days I have just felt like so burnt out like I just haven’t wanted to do anything and I don’t know why that is it has been very gloomy in
The city like this is one of the first days that we’ve had sunlight in such a long time so I’m sure like that’s part of the reason burnout is so typical like when you do content creation and especially like after the holidays but I don’t know why it’s like hitting me now
And again like I am like up north in New York it’s very different than living in Alabama or like a Southern state in the winter because like right now my friends in Alabama are wearing like shorts they are not like still bundled up like in the winter clothes and obviously this is
My first winter in New York so it’s also been very different like adjusting and like mentally it’s been different too I love living in New York and it’s been amazing but I don’t know if anyone else has felt this way I talked about this on
My Tik Tok a little bit ago and people are like it’s just like where you live now like normally if you were in like a more Northern State like the weather and like the gloominess like really affects your mental health and I will say it has
But I’ve been trying to do things that make me happy and do things that like keep me going and like mentally good like going to these workout classes I join class pass I don’t know if I like it or not I join like do like the 30-day
Free trial or whatever also did you notice that the sign is back the sign is back and I love it it makes me feel so good like from filming in here cuz a lot of the times I’m filming in the bedroom it makes me so happy to have it back up
But I need to grab my computer because I should be calling Amy Beth in the next like I think 5 minutes I don’t even know where my phone is to go over everything with Her just got off the phone with Amy Beth with our meeting everything is good to go I just need to send her the labels when we get back from the workout class but I need to go ahead and get dressed I think I’m going to be wearing like a
Little black outfit I kind of want to wear long sleeves today because I know it’s chilly and I’m going to be trying the bus like traveling on the bus I normally walk or city bike everywhere but I want to like start trying new things and doing things that are outside
Of my comfort zone and going on the bus is one of them so from my understanding I’ll be able to get on the bus I transfer to another bus and that takes me directly to where I need to be like basically like 3 minutes from it so
We’re going to be leaving in a lot more time than what we need apparently it’s going to take like 30 minutes with public transportation with the bus we are going to be leaving with like 50 minutes if something happens we can like still hopefully get to the class because
That’s like my biggest thing with like public transportation City bike anywhere going in New York you always have to leave early so we’re going to be leaving like within the next few minutes I just need to like put my hair back I might like curl my lashes beforehand okay I’m
Ready for my bar class we about to be hopping on the bus to go there this is my little outfit the pants are not my favorite but at this point I just like have to go we have the sunglasses because it is sunny today I have my roller rabbit and lushack fancy little
Collab bag that I am using as like my little workout bag I still need to put like my water in here and probably like a little snack this top is from herera these bottoms are from set active I do not have my bar socks anymore so basically bar socks have like little
Grips on them and I used to have them cuz I used to take bar classes all the time and I left them all in Alabama so I need to buy some socks when I get there okay I got my water bottle going to get some water in here and I also just got
Some snacks from Alani and I kind of want to grab one of those for like my afterwork workout snacks this can go in here and these are the snacks I got sent these are like little protein bars oh I did not open that up good I’m going to
Grab one of these they look good okay wallet lip gloss extra phone case in case we want to do like a Tik Tok or something grabbing my airpods so I can listen to Tik toks or music on the way there all right we are heading out the door from rainy
Days you don’t look at me like the others it’s going to get meou sa the dance for feel like I’m I literally missed my workout class cuz I couldn’t find the other bus I had like transfer over to another bus and I could not find it so now we have a
Coffee and we are going somewhere Else we’re going to taste test this vanilla latte this actually tastes really good so we are just going to be walking home that’s going to be my exercise for the day since I don’t know how to use public transportation I’m walking through Grand Central Station to not walk on the cold
As long so we’re just like passing everyone with getting on train but that way it brings me out to the other side and I don’t have to walk in the Cold night it down the moon for darling you’re cimental so I’m next to a sweet greens and that’s mine and will was like one of our favorite places to have lunch I think I may surprise him I think I may surprise him with sweet greens since I’m going to be back
Early anyways it just turned 11:00 so like by the time I get back it’ll be like closer to lunch but here’s the Sun at least on like a bad start to our Monday we have like the Sun out the sun can make everything so much Better feels like we’re 17 will I don’t think this is very funny this too good so basically this is what happened I went to go get on the bus cuz remember we were talking about going yeah on the bus I was you were going on the bus yes so I figured it out on my Google
Mouse I’m like okay I was like okay I need to get on this bus and then I get off here I walk 2 minutes and then I connect onto another bus that will take me directly to the class okay are you paying attention yes I’m paying attention so I get on the bus
Downstairs I make it just in time I I was one of those people running to get on the bus will yeah and so I run get on the bus and I tap my card and I sit down and I’m I’m so proud of myself I’m like
Wow look at you learn look at you go you’re getting places like did you not figure out how to what stopped no I did Will you’re not even let anything just curious I’m on the bus and I’m getting panicky right because on my GPS it’s
Telling me I will get there with like 15 minutes to spare I’m like by the way this like this is going I kind of highly doubt that but I trust it anyway so I go get off on lexon Avenue and my phone is like okay your next bus will be here in
Like 3 minutes walk 197 ft I said okay I can walk 197 ft I walk and there’s like no place for a bus to stop so I’m like okay maybe I’ll miss like this first bus but like at least I’ll know like where it stops cuz like I could see the street
But I was on but I was on the dot the Google Maps dot where it said it picked up but I could not figure this out anywhere and there was no one waiting for a bus and any bus I saw it was like not in service and it says that the bus
Is already come and gone and it hasn’t even come like I have not seen One Singular bus and I’m like okay so then I’m like what if I just like call a taxi I’m looking up how long it would take me to get a taxi and it’s going to be
Another 40 minutes driving oh to my workout class so I was like okay well at this point I have about 20 minutes to get there like what if I Sprint like run fully to my workout class so then I look at that and know that’s going to take me
Like 55 minutes by foot okay let me just keep walking let me keep walking so I’m walking down Lexington Avenue waiting for a bus any bus I was going to hop on any bus babe no bus was there at all I was like this is baloney pull up my
Google Maps again trying to see and like okay what about like my location I’m in right now like can I still get there and it was saying you can still get to your workout class in time if you hop on this bus that will arrive in 2 minutes does
The bus ever come no no the bus never comes so then I’m walking down the street wheel and I’m like so defeated I’m like okay now I’m going to have to pay a $30 like Nosh show fee and then I keep walking and it was like a sign from
God I look down and it’s a coffee shop will and guess what is on the board outside of the coffee shop even bad mornings deserve a second chance no way yes literally as this is happening I mean I’m taking this as a sign that I
Need to get a vanilla latte so I walked in it was actually really really good vanilla latte and it wasn’t expensive at all and then as I’m walking home I’m like M sweet green sound good so that’s why I got a sweet greens but yeah that
Was kind of my debrief ugly babe all right we have our sweet greens we got the Green Goddess salad with the Green Goddess Ranch so good I got chickpeas added to mine that salad was so good oh that is my favorite salad from sweet greens it is so delightful wearing the
New merch right now so cozy and I’m about to be like cleaning up the apartment a little bit will thought it was hilarious about my bus situation which I don’t understand I left in enough time I thought I I I was really confident where I was going we’re going

And we also got some broccoli to cook tonight cuz we are having steak we haven’t had steak in a minute we haven’t it’s because of the smoke alarms like it’s literally like the kitchen’s right here and like the smoke alarm I’m not even Kidd is 6 ft away yeah like on the
Side of the wall where the smoke will go so it’s really annoying so we’re going to try to reverse sear it tonight cuz we set off the fire alarm every Time we were the only on we will hold All right just changed into what I’m wearing for ice skating and I also did my hair I tried to make it look cute because today I feel like I was having like an off hair day put everything on that I needed to for ice skating and I
Also put on these little earrings these are little dainty bow earrings with my collab with llf Studios I will link it down below you can use my code Lauren 10 so cute I have a whole collection for Valentine’s Day and I have been loving these earrings because they are so I
Wore them this morning too and they’re not heavy at all I normally opt for bigger earrings but I have loved having these in my collection and I think they’re so cute I have like a little necklace that matches it and I also have bracelets too that I curated for y’all I
Did put one of these Alani news in the fridge before we left so I could drink it before my ice skating lesson M this tastes like shaved ice that’s really good it’s like a cherry lime flavor so good I’m about to be chowing down also
On this so I can eat before my ice skating lesson my ice skating lesson is like an hour hour and a half so I always like to eat like a little snack before like to give me some energy and to put something in my stomach so I’m going to
Be eating this and I also I’m going to be putting some makeup on for my lesson I am going to be self tanning tonight but I do have like a little bit of tan left on my neck that I kind of want to match my face to because my face
Obviously like washes off the tan way faster than anything else so I do have a couple of emails to send out really fast to Rachel I hired a new blog editor if y’all were here for that process her name is Rachel and I told her that I
Would send her an email um full of information from our meeting so I’m going to go head hop on the computer and send her all the information that she needs for the Vlog this week your car singing along every night was to play that song 100
Times that was so spicy it was like a spicy salmon and it is just like getting to me right now okay we are about to be putting some makeup on for our eye skating class I did a full get ready with me talking about my eye skating
Lessons and like why I decided to do it and I really really love it I love it so much that I’m talking to my coach about doing private lessons just to learn things faster because this is like a group lesson so like we share the ice
With a bunch of different levels of ice skating and I definitely sold myself short and said that I was a way lower level than what I am it’s fine though because because I am learning more of like the technique with everything which is very very important I know how to do
All of the tricks they’re not tricks they’re not tricks it’s like literally the basics okay I know how to do them but I have been doing them not like fully and properly but it hasn’t been like all technically correct so that’s a little bit of a learning curve for me
Because I’ve done it like that for so long because I like basically taught myself anything and everything I knew up into this point so that’s kind of why I want to go in more myself so I can practice more and why I want to do like the private lessons is because I really
Really love it like I love being there I love my coach that I have and I feel like I would be able to get way more out of it where if I want to do like these classes again like the group classes I’d actually be like in the level I need to
Be if that makes sense but nevertheless I also love the girls in my class they were so nice I made a new friend last week I’m really excited to go today to see my friends and hopefully do some more things Sparks and Embers fly wherever
We Fire and Ice we build our lives on Survival pass the lines running your hand in my freedom the song We you can’t stop the storm from coming why look it all comes rushing wolves cry okay makeup is all done for class and I think we still have a lot of time
To spare we do I still have like 20 minutes until I have to leave I do have some mascara on my eyelid that I need to get off with a little Q-tip but did some makeup but I’m going to go ahead and fix these pieces of mascara we made it to ice skating It is so cool top to to learn how to be brave take with mine want to learn about what’s on the inside cuz I feel like we’re running out Time yeah I made typical it’s all phys so good it’s criminal yeah I’m Invincible yeah I’m it’s all physical so good is yeah I’m invinc I’ve been waiting for just the right time now I’m ready to change it Feel I’m ready to play the game adrenaline or can’t be yeah I made go it’s all physical so good it’s gal yeah I’m invinci yeah I’m we are about to be on our way home we just finished it was such a good lesson we learned spins and it was so
