00:15What's in my bag?

00:18Bro, I brought the city in this bag.

00:24This is my Aztec death whistle.

00:27I bring it to really like set the tone in the room

00:29because I don't want anyone else setting the tone in the room like I want to be the one

00:33to make the mark to make the moment so I my journal and it's open right now because I had

00:39to journal in the glam room before I started this is a journal my assistant Katie got me for my

00:44birthday it has my name on it it has a bow because I'm so girly so femme it has a

00:50garnet because

00:50that's my birthstone January 17th Capricorn duh duh let me read y'all a journal entry

00:58psych my therapist said I need to stop oversharing this is what I take around with me everywhere I go

01:04it's my context camera contact girl that's how you know I'm not nobody who does photography this is

01:09just like a hobby this is my contacts tvs camera as you can see the lens is bent because she's

01:16been everywhere with me let's take a photo of this moment it's film oh I'm so analog I've had this

01:25camera for like a year and some change now it's gone with me in situations that y'all wouldn't

01:30even believe I've been in and I have a little scrapbook in my house for people to go through

01:34when they come over next I have my wonder belly anti-acids I have very bad indigestion I think I

01:40had a parasite and I got rid of the parasite because I went through so many different like iterations

01:45of doing traditional Chinese medicine natural medicine cleanses oil of oregano walnut black seed

01:52oil and my stomach is healed now but then when I eat like a pasta gluten I have a gluten

01:58intolerance

01:58I'm gonna take one of these before wonder belly everybody know these we know these these are my

02:05wired apple headphones I love them they're just like chic to me I think the bluetooth headphones

02:11it's like cute we can't see it like yeah you got the bluetooth rays going through your brains these

02:16are just like a good accessory with an outfit even if I don't plug them into anything like

02:23like it's a look where's the camera let's take a picture I've been listening to just like classic

02:28music because I think it keeps me sane because automatically I'm on like a 180 bpm so I have to

02:34listen to some slow things like even me out before I'm off I don't think there's a socially acceptable

02:39way to tell people that you don't want to talk so I just put these earphones in even if I'm

02:43not

02:44listening to anything so I can just have a moment of quiet and stillness to myself without feeling

02:48like I'm being rude next I have my go-to snacks always this started it all it's a hot pickle

02:55I love

02:56these like I love myself they are so good I love something with a bite it has the heat it's

03:01like

03:01eating a bag of like Takis hot Cheetos any crisp that you can it's like eating hell and you know

03:08you

03:08have to eat hell so it can't get you my pickles are so hot and they can get so hot

03:14to the point

03:15to where like if someone else takes a bite they're like oh they're like girl what is this and I'm

03:20like

03:20what just a little snack a little bite it's something fun and that's what I do when I'm on

03:25set I have me either a hot pickle or I'll have me a banana because it's nice fiber it's good

03:30for the

03:30day this banana look like it's been through just life and death and in between purgatory but it's fine

03:35it's nice and ripe and I always throw one of these in my bag I probably am keeping the banana

03:40industry alive how much I buy bananas run kidding oh this looks crazy next what I have is my cyclar

03:49deodorant has like a mandelic acid in it so it brightens your armpits which I'm always looking

03:54for because the friction creates darkness and that's okay but you know when there's 300 trillion

03:59people taking pictures of you all the time maybe you want a little bit of brighter pit you just got

04:02to

04:03believe me this is a great deodorant now here's something that I should be grabbing out my bag

04:07more but I always throw it in just in case I finally have time to read which I do but

04:13I usually spend

04:13a majority of my time scrolling like it literally had dust on it

04:32she always had around her so I wanted to learn more about this woman so that's what I've been reading

04:38Cherry Almond Jergens Travel Size this is how my grandma smelled my whole life

04:45and I'm a very spiritual person and I feel like spirits can be in scents they can be in songs

04:52can be in food and whenever I'm having a bit of an overwhelm or I just need a hug for

04:58my grandma
