So I am feeling like falling deeper. [Music] [Music] I need to go to the [Music] groceries now. While I eat this, I am going to make a grocery list. Larry Salman has been sick for a few days, and it's been bad. So I'm going to attempt to make some really good meals. He honestly didn't have much of an appetite, but I feel like it's slowly coming back. Okay, I am off to the groceries. It is my mission to get my man's [Music] healthy. It is raining [Music] so my audio got cut out once I turned the car on. But basically, I confessed that I think I gave Blurry Salsa Man food poisoning. I think it's one of the ingredients that I put in his sandwiches. I felt really bad, so yeah, that's what I was [Music] saying. I'm eating my kimp while I prep this carbon. It is definitely a labor of love; it takes a very long time. So these are my ingredients that I'm going to pop into my boiling pot. [Music] Tada. Did you tell the people why you made this? Oh, yes, I did. Are you—Thank you. I said I've gazed you. Are you eating? No, I—I have different plans. I'm about to head out for dinner today. This top is from a brand called Sir; I don't know how to pronounce it correctly. I think it's just a really flattering, easy top to wear. I love tops that make me feel very elevated without really trying at all. My everyday bracelets: this is Cartier, this is Monica Vinader. My thin hoops are from a brand called Thatch. I—I'll have all the links below. I'm wearing my ballets that are half-eaten by Root. Thankfully, it is getting warmer out in New York, but it's still a little chilly. I'm going to wear my black trench coat that I did finally get altered. I just took off like a tiny bit at the length, as you can see. The length is still very long, which is the look I wanted to go for. That is the look I have also been into straightening my hair, just for some change. And my perfume of the day is Mai by Memo. It just—it's like a beautiful, sweet scent that's not overpowering. I feel like I could see this as like one of my signature scents for spring and summer. Let's head on out to dinner. So [Music] sweet. And that is our quick and easy Pad Thai. This is my first time making it, so I don't know if it actually tastes good, but it looks good. Mmmm, good. Enjoy it. [Music]

I am here at brunch, and I have the most embarrassing story. I was supposed to get off at a stop, and it's called like Christopher something something, but the sign said like NYU, and I was like pretty sure we passed by NYU. Finally saw my sign; I was like, "Oh, I got to get out," and then half my body's outside, half my body is still inside, and I'm holding this cake in my hand, and my—my cake just gets completely squished, and it was so embarrassing. And my poor cake! I didn't—I didn't open it yet, but I'm hoping it survived. [Music] [Applause]

Let's talk about this month's therapy check-in, and a big thank you to BetterHelp for sponsoring this portion of the video. I was talking about how sometimes I feel like my social anxiety stunts me from living life, enjoying new experiences, meeting people, especially like with the work that I do. It's very common that we go to events to meet other creators. I've been doing content for a minute now, and honestly, I feel like I don't really know that many people. When I tell you when I go to like any type of social gathering, from the brows down, it is just puddles of sweat. But I do feel like the more I practice, the better it gets. And talking about this with my therapist has been tremendously helpful. So if you guys are interested in starting therapy, BetterHelp makes it really easy to get started. You can fill out a questionnaire and get matched with a therapist in as little as a couple of days. You can also switch your therapist at no cost if they're not the right match. So you can click the link in the description or go to betterhelp.com/melchoy and get 10% off your first month.

I'm going to try some Cao for the first time. My skin does not really see the light, so I'm going to try self-tanning, and I'm going to experiment. So I have this, which is these self-tanning drops, and then I have the Cocoa and Eve bronzing foam. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. I'm scared. What if it like develops a little too much? Isn't this supposed to come with like a—a mitt? I'm actually going to just try using this self-tanner on my body as well. I am so white; I'm so pasty. I'm looking at the camera; I'm like shocked at my own self. Can you guys tell how tanned I am? But you can't come too close because I'm a little splotchy. Like, oh my gosh. Anyway, I'm so hungry. I'm going to make some [Music] food sausage, which is also one of my other guilty pleasures. What I like to do is make little—um—little legs, so it looks like an octopus. I also realized I don't have onions, so this is the only one I got. This is red [Applause] onion, soy sauce, mirin, olang—that's it. Now just throw it into a pot. Let's move over to the sofa. Let's put everything together. Spam sausage. Going to put my leftover kimchi in here. Our drink of choice today is sparkling Gizu, original flavor. Cheers. I love cooking and eating things right away, just kind of like at a restaurant. I feel like it tastes better; it's more of a vibe. I'm going to put lava in here. [Music] This is what I mean; it looks like a little octopus. [Music] [Music] This was a lot more than I thought. I had one pack of laman, one bowl of rice. I'm a little stuffed. 5:40 in the morning, and I'm about to go to the airport. Go to [Music]

Oh, we can check you. Yeah, so you take out the [Music] cap. That's pretty useless. Take it out of the cap, and then you twist it. [Music] This isn't good. [Music]

Well, hello. Welcome to my humble abode. So we just made it to our villa. The private pool and beach. Got some spring rolls, cake. This looks so good. We have two bedrooms. Bedroom number one. The bathroom is my favorite, and we have this giant tub and this outdoor shower. Hold on, this is so clean. I didn't know you were about to like—don't—into it. I've always wanted to do this like shower. We can see each other shower. Oh my god, this is what steals the show. [Music] Okay, right here. Right, coconut water. Yeah. Oh my god, stomach is correlated. Oh my god. Okay, okay. Eight, eight. You're going to get hangry. Okay. [Music] Wow. [Music] We're about to pop our champagne. Don't [Music] peek. Oh my god. What did you do? All I need [Music] We are going to dinner, but we are going to take a few photos with the [Music] sunset. [Music] Here we [Music] go. Wait, how [Music]

We are on our way to school. I have a strawberry sign on the sign next to you. No wasting time. Can you tell me the truth? I'm feeling you. Yeah, I'm feeling you. Oh, be honest. Tell me what's on your mind.
