Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

Flies, Butterflies.

Butterflies.

Butterflies.

How have you been?

I know, I know.

You're probably like, where have you been?

I know.

I get it.

In this video, I'm going to give you a little life update.

I've been away for about 5 months, sorry, but I'm going to give you like a little bit of a life update, what I've been doing in my personal life.

And also talk about things that I've been watching like anime, TV shows, movies, like a little whisper Bramble, a little bit of a chitchat to kind of catch up and things like that.

But while I'm giving you my little life update, I'm going to be giving you a very nice relax seeing a scalp and massage.

Wow.

I kind of talk to you and kind of get you up on what I've been doing these past few months.

But anyway, we're just going to go ahead and get right into it.

OK?

So let me go ahead and put some lotion on my hands first and foremost because I don't think you want me, you know, giving you a scalp massage.

And my hands are all ashy and crusty.

Anyway, I still have this lotion.

I don't know if you guys see my previous videos but I'm still using this lotion.

OK, so I'm going to go ahead and have you sing in front of me and I'm going to go ahead and get started.

OK?

All right, All right, I'm loving the hair, by the way.

It's giving summer cotton candy vibes, and I'm definitely here for it.

Besty.

I love it, but I love it.

I love it.

But since we're on the topic of hair, I guess I can kind of talk to you a little bit about like, I guess like my hair journey.

I've gotten so many compliments from you guys about my hair and things like that and I want to thank you very much.

So, so far I have been wearing a lot of protective styles.

So I have been getting crochet braids and this is my first time ever getting box braids.

First time never.

I know, I know, do not come from me in the comments section.

It's my first time ever getting box braids and I absolutely love them because I was like you know what?

I kind of want to do box braids for the summer because I feel like crochet braids would be a little bit too heavy and a little too.

Would be the perfect, would be the perfect, perfect summer hairstyle.

And so that's what I have.

So these are box braids and then towards the ends of my box braids, they are curled.

So it's like braised, braised braids and then curled at the ends here.

See if you can see that like little girls, little ringlets like that at the ends of it.

Super cute, super adorable.

Getting more box braids in the future.

Umm, But As for my actual hair, my hair is in the protective style.

What I've been doing is I'm still in the process of getting a lot of my color, umm, cut out of my hair.

So with me, I'm doing protective styles.

I get my hand stripped every six months and basically I'm just trying to get natural hair steep and I go back in August to get a trim and get some blanketed hairstyle and I think with this trim all of my bleached.

What else am I doing with my hair?

I do make sure I do scalp massages, but I also, I'm also growing my hair out.

I'm allowing my natural hair to grow as long as it can.

You know, because my hair is in protective styles about 90% of the time over the course of a full year, like one whole year, my hair is probably in protective styles about 90, maybe 85 to 90% of the time.

So basically what my hair is doing, it's just being protected in my hands, my roots, everything being protected in the hairstyle.

And I just hold my scalp really well, my scalp clean and my actual hair underneath the styles are just my hair's just growing.

My hair's just growing.

So let me know what, let me see how I want to get it, you know, So that's basically what I'm doing with my hair.

I grow textured hair.

So the less I do do it, the better.

I guess we can talk about like getting my skin gear.

So in my skin gear, something's really changed all that much.

And I still have like a really good facial scrub, facial wash, moisturizers, donors, you know, brighteners, serum, you know, things like that.

Still have that going.

Still very much so.

I have that going.

I have noticed though, I have noticed in the past like maybe a month or two, maybe even before then, I have noticed that my, my face is getting more oily, which I'm not complaining because you know, for this game it means less wrinkles and I will love less wrinkles.

I've noticed more blemishes, breakouts, not not bad, not bad, not bad, not bad, not bad, not bad.

But I have noticed blemishes more than normal and I've noticed that my my face is more coily.

So I have been just adjusting my skin care a little bit very slightly to accommodate the foiliness in my skin.

So I guess what else we can talk about.

So my personal life, I at the beginning of the year, I joined my church's youth group team.

So I'm one of the youth leaders at my church now.

Very, very fun and very exciting.

So joining my church youth leader team, it's been fun.

We've had night, we have had a night series or like a prayer series where it's called night even.

And we did and exposed that was really fun.

Just kind of exposing like, you know, things that aren't good for just growing, especially as a youth and like societal pressures and things like that.

We've also had just really funny things for our youth.

I think we're having a beach day coming up soon.

Maybe another log in.

Oh, we had a log in prayer night that was really good.

That was really, really, really, really good.

I didn't know what log in is.

A log in is where you go to church at night and you pray all night long.

So I had log in from 7:00 to 1:00 in the morning, so 7:00 PM

to 1:00 AM, and the time went by so last and went by so last.

It was such a good event.

A lot of our youth responded, a lot of the game.

We had our youth conference last month in June and we had the biggest turn out that we've ever had.

I think it was my third year having it and we had the most people come.

It was amazing, amazing turn out, amazing turn out.

So I've been helping with her and taking all that responsibility and that role and taking it very seriously because it's been, it's been so much fun and I can't wait to see what else we have in store for you.

Other things in my personal life, my job has been really, really good.

I've been enjoying my job job.

I love what I do.

I am an IT desktop support specialist at my job and I absolutely love what I do.

I love my Co workers.

I love the environment.

I love just everything about life.

There's just so much peace and joy and I, I love doing what I do.

And I'm just very blessed and fortunate to say that I'm good at what I am good at what I do.

And I really am grateful to God that, you know, I can say that really good at what I do.

And yeah, that's just my job has been amazing.

I still love it.

It's still there this October before years I've been there and I just love.

So I think nature exchanged job wise as far as like hobbies.

I still skate.

I still roller, roller, roller, roller, roller.

I'm still rolling, roller, roller, roller, roller, skating, still doing that.

I've lost weight.

I think total now I've lost about 35 or 40 lbs, I think total.

So I've been been losing weight and I'm now fitting back into clothes.

And I used to fit and then I couldn't fit and I fit now.

So that's been really fun.

Just it's been rewarding to see walking more now and I skate a lot and I'm still watching what I eat not much.

I eat as well.

And oh, I have a brand new hobby.

I have a brand new hobby, brand new lobby, brand new hobby, brand new hobby.

So if you follow me on Instagram, you might already know what this new hobby is.

But in case you don't even watch me on YouTube, Spotify, wherever you watch this video.

Hello, I have taken up a new hobby and I've been enjoying it.

I've cooked a few dishes.

I made a ground beef and rice casserole dish before the garlic bread that was really good.

And I made the beef stroganoff sauce from scratch.

It was really good.

Parmesan lemon chicken.

And that was really good, really, really good.

And I took the Parmesan lemon chicken and I fried it.

So I fried the chicken.

I made my own batter from scratch as well and that came out really well.

I served that, umm, lemon, the Parmesan lemon chicken.

It was with cornbread, rice and greens.

Was a steak and shrimp pasta with homemade Alfredo sauce and that one was really good as well.

Umm what else have I made?

I recently made some fried chicken rice and broccoli.

I've also made some fried pork belly rice and broccoli.

Powerful it is.

I'm fried meat, but it was supposed to like a horrible that I made and that was really good as well.

That turned out pretty well.

There are many other dishes that I want to try in the future and I've been enjoying cooking.

I've been enjoying cooking cooking.

It's been a lot of fun and the people who eat my food tend to enjoy it as well.

And I'm very grateful that I haven't really made dish where it turned out well.

I take that back.

I did make a dish that came out so bad.

I don't know what the heck happened.

I was making Taco spaghetti and it just, I think I overcooked the noodles and the noodles just tasted like Bush and then there was like no flavor.

There was like no flavor in the the Taco meat, which I made sure I see something.

OK, I don't know.

I think when I introduced maybe too much cheese, maybe there was too much cheese in the dish, maybe there's too much dairy in the dish.

I don't know.

But it was all bad.

I was so upset with myself.

I was very upset with myself.

But I mean, what good game you have, your wins and your losses.

All you can do is just learn from them, you know?

And oh, I made another dish.

I just made a shrimp Alfredo pasta dish, so very similar to the steak and shrimp.

It's just without the steak.

And that came out really good as well.

I've been enjoying it.

Yeah.

I'm trying to think, is there anything else?

Sorry if my thoughts are all over the place.

I, I'm just kind of going off the top of my head here.

I'm gonna, you know, update you guys and get you up on five months of where I've been.

I'm trying to think, is there anything else in my personal mind?

I don't think so.

If I if I think anything else on, I'll let you know.

But I do want to let you guys know what I've been watching.

Yes.

So I have been watching so many TV shows, animes, movies.

Anyone who knows me knows that I love good cinema, I love a good TV show, love a good anime.

Anyone knows who knows that?

So As for movies I've been watching lately, I watched, I rewatched Gladiator and then I watched Gladiator 2.

I really love Gladiator one, but do we love it?

Gladiator 2 In my humble opinion, I found Gladiator 2 to be pretty much a copy and paste of Gladiator 1.

I don't know if that's going to ruffle any feathers but some people.

But to me I just found it to be literally the same as the first.

It's just different characters.

Some were, some are characters from the first, but to me it just felt like the same thing, just different time, different actors.

But it wasn't bad.

It wasn't bad at all.

I still liked it, but it's just it was like the first one.

Umm.

Another movie I watched was Ben Hur.

I don't know if I'm pronouncing that right, but Ben Hur, it's BEMHUR Ben Hur.

I watched that movie, love it, love it.

Really good.

Umm another movie I watched was I watched the Truman Show for the first time about maybe a couple of weeks ago.

I know you guys are like her.

You've never seen Truman Show?

No, I have never watched it.

I watched it for the first time recently in Oh my goodness, I am in love with that movie.

That movie is so good.

Oh my goodness, Jim Carrey, everybody did.

They say in that movie, OK, absolutely love that movie.

And it was a little triggering for me because of how much they were gaslighting Truman.

Oh my goodness.

Like if you've ever been gaslight before in your life, you know how terrible that is.

And so they just felt like everybody was gaslighting this man.

And so like, it was a little triggering for me, but it was really good.

It was funny, it was funny especially like when her, umm, Truman's wife kept like she kept doing uh, sponsor like sponsors and stuff like that.

It was so funny.

It was so funny.

It was like, who are you talking to?

Oh my gosh, that movie was so good, so good.

10 out of 10.

I enjoyed it from beginning to end.

So good, so good.

Another movie I watched that had Jim Carrey in it was because umm, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind with Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet.

Oh my goodness, Jim Carrey has range OK, the man has range so good.

And umm Kate Winslet too.

She has range too because I think before this role, all of her, all of her previous acting roles were period pieces like she did, she did Titanic, she was in UMM, Sense and Sensibility, which I watched too, Masterpiece.

UMM she played in that movie with UMM with Emma.

Oh my goodness, I don't know what I get her name wrong.

Emma.

I cannot think of her last name.

Not Emma Stone obviously.

Oh my goodness.

I cannot think of her name, but she played that movie.

Simpson Sensibility, Eternal Sunshine, the Spotless.

Mine so good.

Let's talk about the title, the title of that movie.

Absolutely love it.

I love that title.

Eternal Sunshine the Spotless.

I love it.

Love it.

That was such a good movie.

Another like I believe like a nine and a half, a 9 1/2 out of 10.

It was really good.

I was also watching a lot of theory pieces as well, so a lot of Jane Austen's.

I was on Jane.

I'm a Jane Austen binge and I enjoyed all of them.

My favorite one other than my Pride and Prejudice, my favorite one that I watched was The Simpsons ability.

That was so good.

So good, so good, so good.

Such a good movie.

I recommend all these movies that I just listed.

They're all.

I don't think so.

So TV shows I just finished, I just recently finished Squid Game season 3, Squid Game season 2 and 3.

They're good.

I mean, they're wrong.

They're good, but nowhere near season one season 1 was season 1 was so good.

Season 1 of squinting was so so so so, so so good.

Umm, season 2 and three, they were good.

They were OK They were big compared to season 1.

They were OK.

I'm not going to spoil anything since, you know, season 3 just recently came out, but it was OK.

I think it was a fitting conclusion to No Little Story.

One show that I've been watching that I cannot wait to see again was The Chosen.

Y'all When I tell y'all, I did not expect to love The Chosen the way I did.

I fell in love with The Chosen.

It is so good.

Oh my goodness, it is so good.

And like around the time that I started watching The Chosen, I had just started, uh, rereading the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

I'm currently in, uh, the gospel of Luke.

I'm currently in Luke, but like when I started watching, umm, I think it's five seasons now.

Season 5 just ended.

Umm, I watched all five seasons.

I watched every episode When I tell y'all, I am moved on the chosen and it's so good.

One of my friends from church, she recommended it to me and I was like, yeah, I'm think so.

You know, I just read the Gospels, but I watched it.

So good.

So, so good, So good.

I would give it a 10 and 10, especially like if you're into, especially like if you're Christian or even if you're not a Christian, if you're just interested in the stories of the Bible, like the Gospels.

I don't know.

They have one for Dave.

I think it's called the House of David.

I haven't watched that yet.

I think I'm going to watch it soon, but the House of David is on Amazon Prime, so it wasn't chosen.

It's about the gospels.

This is it's so nice.

Especially like if you've heard those Bible stories and you kind of want to see him come to life a little bit.

I highly recommend.

I enjoyed it.

I will be giving the House of David a try soon.

I don't know man, but at some point I will watch it because I've always got the life of David to be fascinating.

I've always found like his his starring as a shepherd to you know, becoming a king.

I've always found this story extremely fascinating.

That's all I'll probably get out of watch, but I haven't been really watching a lot of TV shows lately.

I really just been watching either movies or anime, but those are the main shows that I've been watching, The Squid Game and The Chosen.

I'm quite sure there's other TV shows I've been watching but I don't none come to mind because they just didn't hit me like that.

But I do really really enjoy those two TV shows and but I've been mainly watching anime and movies so I guess we could move on to anime.

As far as anime, I've watched Sakamoto days.

Love it.

My happy marriage.

Oh, apothecary Diaries.

Apothecary Diaries season 2 just ended and Oh my goodness y'all Apothecary Diaries OK, I love apothecary Diaries.

I've also been watching oh, I've watched a few piece of guys where the main girl dies and then she goes into like this fairy world or this uh fantasy world where she's the villain like the villain is type animes.

I've been watching those so far.

All the villain is type animes that I've been watching have been really good.

But anyway, like those I've watched.

Oh, Don the Don season 2 just started.

Y'all Kaiju #8 just had a special delicious OK delicious delicious My dress up darling season 2 just aired with this first episode of the season.

Y'all I'm telling you I am team modern and Gojo all day every day.

I love my dress up throwing.

I live three years for season 2.

OK so you guys believe I was all in it.

OK I was on Google.

I was like yo, no, don't understand.

I was like Oh my God, like I was so excited.

I was so excited to see my dress up during season 2 in the first episode did not disappoint.

The first episode of the season did not disappoint at all.

OK, Marty and game in a hot.

OK, Kojo came in a hot, but the cosplay is OK.

So good, so good.

Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh, so good Kaiju #8 This little episode special was really good as well.

I've been catching up on Demon Slayer, Let me see, I think I've been watching some anime movies as well, but Oh my goodness I should have put this down.

I really should have put this down because I'm not like spacing right now.

But currently I'm watching Rascal does not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai.

I'm currently watching that.

I'm currently watching, uh, the girl of God chooses a girl.

It's like gorilla God chooses the girl or something like that.

Again, the title I'm watching that I'm finishing up Apothecary diary.

I've had like 2 No 3, no two.

I have two more episodes of Apothecary Diary season 2 probably done.

But yeah, that's just what I've been watching.

I hope that you're doing well.

Thank you so much if you decided to stick around and join me in the in portion of this video where I do the WOE or the word of encouragement, word of encouragement, word word, word of encouragement, word of encouragement.

I believe these verses I've done before.

I believe I've done them before in a previous video.

However, here lately, these verses have really helped me a lot personally.

And these are the words coming from the book of Matthew, the book of Matthew, the book of Matthew.

I'm currently in the Gospels.

I've already finished Matthew, I've finished Mark, and I'm currently now in Luke.

And when I was going back to the Gospels, this one in Matthew really, really, really touched my heart.

And it's Matthew 1128 through 30.

Some of you guys may know it, some of you guys might not, but I'm why should you've heard this before maybe, but here lately, just whenever I feel stressed and worn and tired and, and just burdened and just full of anxiety and things like this, these verses have really been giving me so much life and strength and comfort and like just affirmation and I really, really love this.

So it's in Matthew 11, 7 verses 28 through 30.

And this is the very end of the chapter.

So these verses are at the end of Chapter 11 and these are the red letters.

So this is Jesus speaking and it says, come on to me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and ye shall find rest unto your souls, for my yoke is easy and My burden is light.

I'm going to read that one more time because it's just.

These words are so comforting.

Come on to me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

I love these words so much because oftentimes as humans, imperfect, imperfect humans, but we're beautiful, imperfectly beautiful humans, we try to take on so much ourselves, so much responsibility, so much work, so much time and stress and all these things, projects and all, all manner of things, right?

Whether it's in work or in home or in other areas of life, we just didn't take on so much, not just when it comes to working or, you know, with family life or anything like that.

We take on so much spiritually as well.

You know, we, we take upon other people's burdens and like we take upon, you know, people who's going through things and, you know, they come for us for counsel or just anything, right?

We get anxiety attacks and a waves of depression hits US and we just go through so many burdens and, and things like that.

And I know we personally, I've been through it and these words are so comforting because Jesus loves us so much that he told us that, hey, I understand you're going to go through things like this, but lay them down.

If you're heavy laden and you're burdened, lay them down and take upon my yoke.

Take upon my burden because.

If they're easy and light.

And so when we rest and trust in Jesus, it makes everything else just feel so like airy and light.

It just feels like a tether, you know, and that burden and that yoga is just trust him and put our faith in him.

And when I find myself super heavy laden, I just tell the Lord, I say, you know what, Jesus, this is too much for me.

I can handle this.

I'm going to give you my burdens.

I'm going to give you my yoke and I'm going to take your yoke.

I'm going to take your burden because you told me that those things are easy and light.

And my current yoke and my current burdens are like 18,000 tons.

And I can't, I can't handle it.

I don't have the shoulders to bear them, but you do.

And so a lot of times I find myself and I humble myself and I realize I can't do this on my own.

I give them to him and I take on his and the peace and the joy, the relief and the the stress relief that Jesus gives is like no other.

He is the Prince of peace for a reason.

He's the Prince of peace for a reason.

And he, he is our, he is our Good Shepherd.

And he doesn't want to see us burdened.

He doesn't want to see anything hindering us.

And so just reading those, those verses from Matthew chapter 1128 and 30, they remind me that I don't have to go to this alone.

I don't have to carry these burdens alone.

Jesus wants to carry them for me like he loves us so much that he wants to carry our burdens for us and just take what he is.

It's so beautiful.

It is.

It's not an equal exchange at all.

That is not an equal exchange.

But Jesus loves us so much that he would give us his burden, his yoke, and take on hours that we can handle on our own.

And I'm just so grateful for those verses and I'm so grateful for for the Gospels to remind me of such a beautiful promise and such a beautiful exchange.

A very unequal exchange, but an exchange that Jesus gladly gives us and he sticks to his words.

So I just want to leave you with that.

If you're really heavy lady for burden, stressed out anxiety, anything like that, just please go read Chapter 11 of Matthew, Chapter 11 verse 28 and 30 and just really step out on faith and allow Jesus to take those burdens so that you can think on his because he's his is easy and very light and without you guys, I hope that you have a great day, night, evening or whatever it is you're having in your part of the world world world Rd.

Rd.

Rd.

Rd.

take it easy.

Just know that I love you, but also know that Jesus loves you so much more.

Take care of yourselves.
