My Birthday and Haul
I started my channel when I was 19 years old, and that was actually my first birthday vlog. At the time, I was feeling very lonely, but since then, my channel has been filled with love and friendship from all of you, even if it's virtual. I want to take a moment to express my gratitude for everything you've done for me. You guys have made every birthday wonderful, and I'm so excited to see what this year brings.
A Surprise from Chris
Today was a surprise day, as I found out that Chris had gotten me Pitbull tickets! I was freaking out over it and couldn't stop talking about it. It's not often that I get to meet a celebrity, but if it's someone like Pitbull, it would be an incredible experience for me. When I told Chris how much I love his music, he thought it was the craziest thing ever. He even said that this might be the best concert I've ever been to, and I couldn't agree more.
My Birthday Haul
Before we headed out, I wanted to show you guys my birthday haul. I went to a little bookstore with Chris, and I picked up two books that I just had to have. One of them is "Seven Summer Weekends" by Ali Hazelwood, which I was going to buy when I get to Florida but decided to bring with me instead. The other book is an exclusive edition of "Kingdom of Ash" signed by the artist, which was a wonderful surprise.
The Bookstore Surprise
I noticed that the bookstore had an independent edition of "Not in Love" by Ali Hazelwood, and I didn't know they had that. It's got a cute little graphic on the cover with a dog and the artist's signature. The cover is very shiny and floppy, which is quite fun. If you guys watched our last Vlog, this will look very familiar to you.
My Outfit for Dinner
For dinner tonight, I decided to wear something special – a cute little dress that I really wanted to show off. It's going to be a lovely evening with Chris, and I'm excited to see what the night has in store. We're not going to the beach anymore due to the rain, but we'll still have a great time together.
A Special Moment
As we were getting ready for dinner, I realized that I was wearing something from my previous vacation – a little dress that Chris had helped me pick out when he saw it earlier in our Vlog. It's one of my favorite outfits, and I'm so glad I got to wear it again. The socks I'm wearing are old but still comfy, and the sneakers are Sambas, which is always a great choice for me.
The Perfect Bow-Tied Look
I decided to try out a bow-tied look today, and I think it turned out very well. Chris helped me tie the bow, and now I feel like a completely different person – more confident and put together. The back of my shirt has a cute little bow detail that adds a touch of elegance to the overall look.
A Delicious Dinner
For dinner, we stopped at this amazing restaurant that serves delicious food. We had a wonderful time chatting and laughing together, and I'm so grateful to have Chris in my life. It's not often that I get to relax and enjoy good food with someone who makes me feel so happy.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhello besties welcome to my birthday Vlog I was thinking about this the other day this is now my fourth I think birthday Vlog on this channel and that is just so crazy to me I think I started doing these when I was turning 19 either 19 or 20 but I think it was 19 cuz I like vividly remember what I did for that birthday I went to a sunrise and I think I went to the beach with Chris at night to eat dinner it's just so crazy that I've been doing birthday Vlogs for 4 years now so if you've been watching me for since the first one or any of them or if this is your first one hello welcome welcome back to my channel welcome to my channel I love filming these because I like to look back on them it's just like that moment in time turning this age to just I don't know tomorrow is actually my birthday today is not my birthday today's the 13th of June and it's a very exciting day because I'm seeing NY in concert tonight I've been waiting for this day since hey maybe since I was 14 when I saw him with One Direction I think that was the last time I saw him and tomorrow I turned 24 it's been 10 years so I texted my friend and I was like there's like high chances of Tears tonight and she was like no I already knew that like I expected that but I'm so excited if you didn't know last year when his album came out the newest album signed up for the Spotify thing that was happening in the city and I got tickets for it and I met my friend in the city and we were waiting in line and we didn't know it was first come first serve so we were not able to get in and lo and behold the people that did get in got tickets to his show tomorrow like my birthday show so I was a little upset about that I had like a personal Grudge for a few months but he added a date today I made sure we all got tickets I'm going with Lauren my friend Kay and a bunch of K's friends and I'm so so excited so I thought I should start the Vlog today have a little concert day cuz I love vlogging the concerts and this one especially I so excited for her tomorrow for my birthday I don't have many plans I told Chris I wanted to grab some pizza and eat it on the beach which is just what we did when I turned 19 like that is just like so crazy does it feel like I'm turning 24 like I loved being 23 I think 22 and 23 were my favorite ages and I'm excited to see what 24 has in store but that's all we're doing tomorrow it's chill because on Saturday the day after my birthday the 15th I'm flying to Florida for Father's Day so right now I'm not home obviously I just went to get my hair done I had this appointment booked for a bit I had to freshen up my roots but we made it a little bit see I don't know because last time we went darker on the red but it lightens up so much as I wash it and as I'm in the Sun a lot so we lightened it from the last time I dyed it but it's a little bit darker than what it lightened up as I don't know it's kind of confusing but this is the shade it is in the sun it definitely looks more red and it looks a little darker right now but I'm obsessed with it I'm obsessed every time she does my hair so very excited that I have my hair done for today and my birthday tomorrow that's really exciting and then a coffee shop just opened up on the same street as my hair salon and it's the same owner as the coffee shop that me and Lauren and our friends used to go to during school to do like our work work it's like a they franchised it so they opened one on the same block as my hair salon so I went in and I got a Macha and it's really good but I feel like they're honey they're honey tastes just a little bit I don't know if it's our honey or the matcha tastes a little bit off but I thought I should treat myself and buy a matcha today because my birthday's tomorrow it's my excuse all day long I was going to go to Hazel but decided not to it's also on the same street as my hair salon very dangerous every time I come here I have the strongest urge to go in there not today because I need to go see if there's a Michaels anywhere around here I think I might make a sign that says it's my birthday even though my birthday tomorrow but we're on the floor we're kind of further back but I want to make a sign just in case you know I'm going to hold out hope maybe he'll see it and sing me Happy Birthday who knows and then before my hair I ran to actually ran to Walgreens I needed to print a picture cuz for Father's Day I got my dad a gift I got him this travel kind of like toiletry case that he can put his toiletries in when he travels cuz he travels a lot and when you open it there's um a spot you can put in a picture so I printed out a picture of the six of us and I went to Walgreens first just cuz it was closest to me and I don't use the Walgreens printers and I was so confusing and I don't know why and I was getting stressed cuz I was cutting it really close to my hair appointment and then I left and went to a CVS that was on the way to my hair salon because I know I've had beef with the CVS printers if you watch my doing book stuff videos but I went to that because I know how to use it and it was so quick and I printed out the picture it's a funny picture not a funny picture it's just a picture of us from a vacation I think this was 2018 the end of 2018 Christmas we it was just like a funny trip so it's a funny memory I'm going to put that in his little toiletry bag and then I got him fun card and the guy that was checking me out at CVS opened up my card he was like I'm going to see the card you got I was like no don't don't do that don't judge me that's what's happened so far it's now 2:30 I want to see if there's a Michaels around so I can get a little cardboard thing so I can write on it okay so there's no Michaels I'm going to have to go to the one near my house I'm going to grab a sign go home probably eat something and work a little bit and then get ready for the concert so I will see you then I'm really excited and I don't know what I want to wear I have like two outfits in mine once I'm getting ready I will update you guys and show you what's happening I could not be more excited I haven't been this excited for a concert probably since Harry I mean I'm excited for all the concerts I go to but like I'm just a One Direction girly in heart and if you know me if you knew me back when I was 14 or 15 I have been a Nile girl since the womb like I was born a NY girl I remember the first concert I went to me and my step sisters made shirts and mine I cut like the bottom of it and made my own Fringe and put green little beads on the bottom of them and then glitter paint I wrote horin on the back of it and a fourleaf clover on the front and then I wore a green bandan listen it was cute in 20 what 14ish 2013 maybe I've just been a NY girl forever and I haven't seen him since that time it's been 10 years so I'm ready and I'm very excited so I will see you guys later when I'm getting ready I'll show you the sign that I make I'm really excited for all of this today and tomorrow it's going to be a wonderful few days and I'm happy to take you guys along with me so I will see you guys later I'll see you when I start getting ready hello this is my outfit I bought this little set from Zara and I'm wearing my SAS but I bought this set at Zara I think two days ago and I tried it on there and I was like this is cute but this skirt was a little too big so I went back out and I got a size smaller and I was like okay I'll wear this tried it on an hour ago skirt didn't zip it was too small went back to the mall which was really funny because I'm pulling you in and I see Chris standing outside of the mall we both look at each other like literally what is going on he was there to pick up a last minute gift for my birthday tomorrow and I was there to get my skirt we didn't tell each other he obviously wanted to be like a surprise he didn't want me to know he's doing that so he went with me to Zara I returned and exchanged the skirt and literally got home did all of that in like 20 minutes I was sweating it's so hot out the skirt fits it's such a cute little fit I feel like this top could be giving like oh I'm going bowling like you know it's like one of those like bowling tops with the SAS but it also feels like a shirt that Nile would wear kind of I don't know but I think altogether it looks cute especially with the little SAS so here is my final outfit I'm so excited I'm leaving in like 10 minutes probably here is the sign that I made I showed it before it literally just says it's my birthday odds that he sees it could be really low but I'm still bringing it with me who knows who knows what's going to happen I don't also feel like since we're at Madison Square Garden either today or tomorrow he's going to bring someone out I don't know why I feel that when artists are in New York there's there's probably another artist maybe sometimes I don't know so either today or tomorrow I think he's going to do it so fingers crossed it's today maybe it'll be neither of the days but we'll see so excited to hear on the loose that's been stuck in my head for months now I've been listening to it for months any One Direction song honestly like not to be that person but any One Direction song I'm excited I'm excited for any of it for all of it

New York is for Lovers it sold out but he ended up putting it on the site for 48 hours and as a birthday present to myself I bought that the T-shirt version of it it's I don't know when it's going to come but it was really really cute but I end up getting this one it has like the patchwork it has like the science lyrics here and then on the back it has more the only size they had left was a small or a 2XL so I was like okay I'll just take the 2XL this is not a 2XL this fits as like a medium/ large so if you're going to a when you want this one this is a 2XL the sizing on it is a little weird but it's really really cute I'm happy I got merch and then we went to our seats it was really fun we were on the floor but we were like rose back so we were on like the second half like further towards like the back of the floor but Dell Water Gap opened for him but we got there a little late like right before they finished the set so we didn't really see anything of that but he came at 850

posters in here one of the girls tweeted him a couple years ago like sell out MSG and he replied to the tweet and was like I would if I could and he got that girl up in the front because he ended up selling out MSG a couple years later and he noticed her he took a picture with someone else and it was really really cute it was such a good show incredible it went like too fast like it ended too
