There's like so many people here. It's

0:01

actually a little insane. Think I'm

0:04

going to go home now.

0:09

>> [music]

0:14

>> Today I am going outside my comfort zone

0:15

and by that I mean I am going outside.

0:18

If you couldn't already tell my default

0:20

habitat is this very apartment, but I

0:23

feel like I need to drag myself out at

0:26

this point and go touch some grass. I

0:28

cannot be rotting indefinitely. [music]

0:30

Like that is not healthy. I am trying to

0:32

change that. I saw on Party Fold that

0:34

Chinatown's doing a Lunar New Year

0:36

screening of The Joy Luck Club, which is

0:39

such an iconic Asian-American San

0:40

Francisco movie I haven't seen in a

0:42

while. So I thought maybe I should just

0:44

go. I'm wearing my Beast Mode perfume

0:46

today just in case I meet my future

0:48

husband in Chinatown.

0:49

Um,

0:50

I'll let you know if I see him.

0:55

>> [music]

1:00

[music]

1:06

[music]

1:12

[music]

1:18

[music]

1:24

>> Wait, it's so good though. It's actually

1:25

so good. I think I'll give it a 9 out of

1:27

10.

1:30

Wait, so it does this and this match?

1:33

>> So these these are in the same suit.

1:35

>> Okay. Okay.

1:35

>> So to make one a set of three, you would

1:38

need like 7 8 9.

1:40

>> Can I do like 3 4 5 6 7

1:42

6 7?

1:44

>> Like if you had 2 3 4 5

1:47

Okay, sorry. My my brain is like

1:50

>> Okay. So there's bamboo,

1:53

dots, characters,

1:55

and then

1:57

and

1:58

What's this?

2:00

>> There's different rules, I guess.

2:01

>> making pairs or are we making ascending

2:04

descending?

2:04

>> So, we're making four sets of three plus

2:06

one last pair.

2:08

>> That's the goal. Yes.

2:10

>> Got it.

2:10

>> So, in every single round, like let's

2:12

>> A few moments later.

2:15

>> [music]

2:17

>> I won.

2:18

>> Oh.

2:20

>> I just needed the Wait. 2 3 4 I just

2:22

needed the seven bamboo. Who had the

2:24

four of bamboo? Who had the seven of

2:27

bamboo? Tell me who had the four of

2:29

bamboo.

2:29

>> I was one away.

2:32

>> Unfortunately, I did not meet my future

2:33

husband at Chinatown, but I did develop

2:36

an unhealthy addiction to mahjong, so

2:40

that's good.

2:42

Look what I'm feasting on. Mm. Oh my

2:45

gosh.

2:46

I love Chipotle. Anyways, today was a

2:49

really fun day. I've never seen that

2:51

many Asians packed into a theater

2:53

before. So, we felt like all the

2:55

materials so heavily. We all laughed.

2:58

Like people were sobbing. It was

3:00

honestly like such a surreal experience.

3:02

Also, it was so crazy that the movie was

3:06

shot and based in Chinatown, San

3:08

Francisco, and we were watching it in

3:10

Chinatown, San Francisco.

3:12

Like it was so meta. And then after

3:14

that, we went to a mahjong night. I've

3:16

never played mahjong before. Bro, it is

3:19

so addictive. It is so addictive. Like I

3:21

think I am addicted now. I did not want

3:23

to leave. They had to kick us out. Also,

3:25

there's a humongous fly in my apartment,

3:27

and I don't have peace in my own home.

3:31

Oh my god, I'm trying so hard to ignore

3:32

it, but I don't even know where it is

3:34

anymore.

3:36

Whoa, it's right there.

3:38

>> [music]

3:40

>> In the spirit of attempting to cure

3:42

boredom through partyful invites,

3:44

there's like this home cafe thing going

3:46

on. People are like turning their

3:48

apartment into a cafe, which I think is

3:50

super cute, and it's also around the

3:52

time where I kind of need my second

3:54

caffeine boost of the day. So, it works

3:56

out perfectly. Also, peep the fit. This

3:58

is not really my usual style, but the

4:01

invite said spring, and this is like the

4:03

only time I could wear this top. So, I

4:05

feel like for these kind of things, I'm

4:07

always like a little nervous because

4:09

there's like a lot of people. I need to

4:11

meet new people, but at the same time,

4:13

whenever I go to like a social

4:14

gathering, I'm only going to like stick

4:16

to the people I know. But, I'm going to

4:18

try not to do that today. Also, look at

4:20

my tripod right now.

4:22

Let's go.

4:33

>> [music]

4:43

[music]

4:51

[music]

5:05

[music]

5:07

>> Just now, my falsie was coming out. I

5:09

ripped both of them out, and now there's

5:10

like glue on my eyes, but um

5:14

whatever. I'm going to go to Mission

5:17

Dolores Park today. It's just such a

5:19

nice day, and it would be a waste to

5:21

like just spend it at home.

5:24

Oh my god, there's like so many people

5:26

here. It's actually a little insane. I

5:29

think I'm going to go home now.

5:33

>> [music]

5:38

[music]

5:44

[music]

5:51

[music]

5:55

>> Hey, how are you?

5:56

>> Hi, hi, hi.

6:01

>> Uh

6:02

wow, but it was Oh yeah, that's like one

6:04

of

6:05

Wait, I want to finish up.

6:06

>> Bro, I evidently do not eat burritos

6:08

that often cuz like why did I unwrap the

6:11

whole thing? What am I doing? Like what

6:15

am I doing? It's fine. Don't judge me.

6:18

Okay, I'm finally back home. Today was

6:21

so tiring because it was basically a day

6:25

of socializing, but the conversations

6:27

were all really intellectually

6:29

stimulating. Honestly, it's better than

6:31

rotting at home alone, which I I do

6:34

often. I'm going to spend the rest of

6:36

the night watching F1 because every year

6:39

before the Oscars, I make a point to

6:42

binge all the Oscar nominated films

6:44

before the ceremony, which is tomorrow.

6:47

And F1 is the only Best Picture nominee

6:49

I haven't seen this year. Actually, I

6:51

really like the Oscar nominated

6:54

nominated I really like all the Oscar

6:56

nominated films this year, especially

6:59

Hamnet. Bro,

7:01

Jessie Buckley killed that role. Like

7:05

obliterated. I don't think I've ever

7:07

seen such a multifaceted portrayal of

7:11

motherhood before. Like the joy and the

7:13

struggle and tenderness and grief. Like

7:17

it was all encapsulated so vividly and

7:21

truthfully. This is why we need more

7:23

female directors. Also, Train Dreams.

7:26

Visually just stunning. They did such a

7:28

good job at capturing this like feeling

7:31

of grief and loneliness like throughout

7:34

the movie, but also peace at the same

7:37

time. Watching it kind of felt

7:38

comforting in a way. Like it kind of

7:40

took me out of my own life for a bit and

7:42

reminded me that we're all just little

7:45

humans living our little lives in this

7:47

like big world. I don't know why, but I

7:50

really love the feeling of isolation in

7:53

films. I don't know what that says about

7:55

me, but I really like like Blade Runner

7:58

2049, Her.

8:01

Oh wait, why are they all AI movies? Let

8:03

me know if you would like this kind of

8:05

vlog. I'm trying something a little new.

8:07

I will see you in the next vlog.

8:10

Bye.
