SPEAKER_01 0:07

Hey! Hey! I'm like so nervous. I don't know. I think it's because I haven't seen you in a long time. Oh my god! It's been a really long time. It has been it's been over a week. It's been 10 days. Four hours and 22 minutes. 39 seconds. It has been a really long time. Yeah. Where are you then? Um I was in Ohio for a week. Why? I went with my boyfriend. Okay. Um they had a family passing, so we went for a funeral, but then yeah, it was okay. She like was really old. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for your loss. I'm sorry for his loss. I'm sorry for like his loss, but I think grandparents, I feel so bad for his mom. Yeah. Because I'm like, oh my gosh. So sad. That is so sad. Like she's a daughter at the end of the day. She's the girl. She's she's just the girl. Yeah. So I felt more sad for them, but it was a really beautiful service and it was a good week. Yeah. How was it though? What was your favorite part about it? Put your thinking cap on. Well, our last episode was about love languages. I was talking about how quality time is so important to you. Yeah, it's so valuable now. So it was so nice being with him like every day for a week. That was really nice. So it's probably my favorite part. Uh my least favorite part, I don't know if you were gonna ask that, but it's the food. Why? No offense. I actually wanted to ask you this earlier today. No offense, but no gluten-free options. No gluten-free options, and it's just not good. Okay. California has better food. What do they have? Like what is it? Ohio. I'm thinking like Southern. Am I wrong? It's I think it's Midwest. Okay, Midwest. I'm thinking Midwest. But also But also think like grits. Ugh. So I didn't know this, but Ohio, I mean, I did kind of know this. They have like that huge lake. Lake Erie. It's like one of the big lakes or whatever. They have a fish there called Perch. It's my warhand's favorite fish. So he was eating that a lot and he was like really happy about that. But but it's breaded. Very ironic. You're so funny. My boyfriend is named after a fish. So it's ironic that he's a few. Yeah, he loves it. Oh my gosh, I didn't even say that joke. I should have. I'm just been like a fish again. Your own kind? That's crazy. Um, so I was really happy that he got to eat his favorite food. But you know, some people it's like actually, this is gonna be so mean, but I was gonna say, you know, some people say like there's no place like home. The food is just so much better to you because you're from there, and maybe that doesn't apply to other people, but I think people who go to Mexico think that food is bomb too, even if they're not from there.

unknown 2:51

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 2:52

So, I mean, whatever floats their boat, but that was probably my least favorite part, the food. Everything else, it was fun. His family's so nice, like that southern charm where everyone's like really, really, really nice to you. So, what is southern? Well, that's what I'm calling it, but I it's technically Midwest. Like, one of his cousins kept saying, like, Whoa, welcome to the Midwest. And I was like, I thought I was in the South. But if you look on the map, it's not South. Well, I'm glad you had fun. I did miss you. You were gone for a long time. I really missed you. I was. I feel like I missed out so much. Catch me up. Okay, well, I'll tell you. I honestly had the like such a fun week. I know, I wish you were here. Haley was on spring break, which means I was on spring break.

SPEAKER_02 3:30

Period.

SPEAKER_01 3:31

Well, we started that off with you, so we went to the beach on that Sunday. It was so much fun to just tan, be together. And on Monday, Haley and I went to a doctor game. It was just me and her. Nobody wanted to come with us. I tried, okay. Yeah. We tried to get you to go, you didn't want to come with us. Um not true. No, guys, we were literally gonna like do the most. We were gonna leave the game early to take Nikki to the airport to LA. She had a flight, and so we were like, oh, this is perfect. Works out. We could just leave a little bit early and drop off, but didn't end up working out, whatever. Not not anybody's fault, okay? Um she just rolled her eyes like crazy. But then I had so much fun. I'm glad you guys went. I love adults. It looked so wholesome. We have to go to a game. I've been wanting to. Yeah, I'm gonna make us go. And then we went to what else did I do? I feel like I was very busy. I went to Disneyland with my friends from high school too, to be home with us, and it was just so much fun. You were in like Newport one day. I was in Newport on another day. I was all over the world. Just every like SoCal couldn't get enough of you. No, no, good for you. But it was just so much fun. And we went to Disneyland because my ex-boyfriend gave us, or he gave me tickets. He bought us tickets during the relationship, guys. Yeah, during the relationship, not now. He's not bringing up with you, but here's some Disneyland. Imagine? No, no, no. Um, yeah, so I had these Disney tickets from like two years ago just sitting in my Disneyland account. And for the longest time, this was like forever ago, Haley was like, I want to use one. And I was like, okay. She deserves it. No, yeah. She has a pass now, but like we couldn't go during she's just she's so busy, but whatever. And so yeah. And with that ticket that my ex-boyfriend bought me, I got a Disney pass. So turn it. The one thing he was good for. Just kidding. You're like, Mickey said, thanks. Yeah, but that was just so much fun. So fun. And I was just Hailey looked like such a mom of the group, like, okay, come on, let's go here. Yeah. But it was really fun. Dismissed you. I wish you could have came. Me too. Me too. But we But it was fun. We have so much time in the world that we will get you to come with us. And it'll be so much fun. I'm like next spring break. Right. It'll be mine too. No. We're not gonna wait for spring break. No, no, no, we're not, we're not. We have some things planned. Yeah. Oh my god, we have so much planned. We have so much. We were just talking about that. We were going over our calendar. Just the fact that we have to open up our calendars to be like, okay, what day can we do this and what day can we do that is like such a blessing. It's fun though. That we're gonna be out of town. We have some trips coming up. Next week I'm going to Washington, D.C. Fun. I know. I'm a little scared because I'm going with my two brothers and my parents. We have not gone on a trip like that in a long time. I didn't know that your brothers were going. Yeah, both my brothers are going. First, it was just gonna be me and my parents, which is why I said yes. But then my brothers are able to go now, which I'm so happy that they're able to, but I don't know if I would have said yes. Just because it's so overwhelming for me just to travel for some re I love to travel, but I'm just a little traumatized. I don't like group traveling that much. When I went to Europe in high school, those kids were a mess. My classmates were sneaking out, getting drunk, creating drama. We were 17, I was just trying to have a wholesome trip. So it was a little scared, but it'll be fine. I did the whole itinerary. Oh, kind of how I did it for New York, where I literally typed it up, screenshot it, gave multiple options, sent it to everybody, told them what the weather was gonna be like each day. My dad's like, oh wow, you asked. And you received. Yeah, I was like, so should I make reservations? That's all my to-do list, actually. There are two places that I need to, but we went to Washington, DC. Oh my gosh, yeah, we did. When we went to Cobra. So much fun. When we went to New York, we stopped in Washington, DC to see my cousin Abby. Yeah, love you girl. She was supposed to go with us to New York. Oh yeah. Sometimes I forget that. Little punk. You owe me a trip, baby. Yeah. We'll meet you in New York next time. But yeah, oh my gosh, yeah. We went to New Washington. That was so much fun. We did so much walking anyway. We did so much in one day. It was freezing. Really cold. It snowed. That was the first time I ever experienced snow. Ira, do you remember we like woke up and we looked outside and you could see the snow falling? But we were like the way that you were like, oh my gosh, this is magical. This that was me, my first snowfall in Oregon. Because it was just so my first snowfall in Oregon was like feet. It was so much. I was just like, oh my gosh, I'm in winter wonderland, and the locals are pissed.

unknown 8:20

They're like, damn it.

SPEAKER_01 8:22

Yeah, I didn't. I honestly thought that our plans were gonna get canceled because we had a whole day of going out to Washington, DC, and we were gonna check everything. And you know, I had never been. Had you ever been to Washington? No, no, that was my first time. That's what I thought. And so we had this whole day, and I low key thought maybe we weren't gonna be able to go out, like we were gonna be stuck because it was snowing. No, we've made it happen. Abby was driving out there in a big old truck in my own. He's like, Don't worry, I got a truck. And we dressed very appropriately for cold weather. We didn't get wet. I don't think we got wet or our feet got wet or anything like that. I think we were wearing I was wearing boots. You were wearing boots too. Yeah. And I remember we were in I was in pain at one point. Nikki was like, let's just switch shoes for a little bit. Because one thing about me, I don't think I complain. I think I do complain, but I'm like, no guys, keep going, keep going. Like, no, it's so funny. She's like, no, no, no, I'll be okay. I'll survive. But like, literally, she looked like her feet hurt. You know, when they're like trying to rock, when girls are trying to rock on their heels and their toes. She was like, Any time she was able to sit, she would sit. And I was like, this is not like Celeste. Should be like sitting. She's like, No, no, no, you guys figure it out. Take your time with directions. I'll just sit here. She's like, please let me sit. No, it was fun. We did a lot that day though. Yeah, we saw a lot, a lot of our itinerary. I'm like, dude, I'm spreading this out over a couple days, and we were able to do a lot in like 12 hours, basically. Yeah, because we woke up, we got ready, we left pretty early, we went to go try this. We s we started in Georgetown. Yeah, so pretty, by the way. I love Georgetown. Yeah, we're doing that again. Yeah, for sure. Um, and Nikki wanted to go to this spot. It was like a bagel place, and it was really yummy. And then called your mother. Call your mother, call your daddy. Um, and that's when it started snowing too. And then we went, did a little shit tunnel walking. And then we went out to eat dinner, remember? That was so fun too. I was so cold at dinner, I was like, Celeste, I have a fever or something. Because you know, like when you get so cold that you almost get hot, I think I was like wind chapped. Yeah. We kept saying that, like, are we wind chapped? Even in New York, that would happen. Sometimes we're at the end of the day. I'm like, Am I okay? Why is my face so hot? Yeah, but I think it's from the wind. But yeah, it was so much fun. That was so much fun. That was a good day. That day felt like five days, but that was a good day. It did, it felt like forever. Well, another thing that I've just been like super hyper fixated on is um the Megan Moroni album. Oh my gosh. Have you? Yes, I love her. No, we have to see her in concert. I love Megan. Megan, I love you. Please, if you're listening, please can we be front row at your concert at every single show? Like, I actually used to watch me too. I actually used to watch her best friend on TikTok years ago. Natalie King, yeah. And I didn't piece it together until recently. I was like, wait, I know her. Let me see. Her the blue album, the Am I Okay album? That was my separation album. Like I was going through something, and that album was so good. It wasn't it was a little relatable, but it just was such a good album. So then when this album came out, I was like, Celeste, I hope you're listening, girl, because this is a good album. No, but remember I was like texting you, I was on my way to the airport, and I texted it to literally every single one of my group chats, and I was like, This is insane. This is like the best album. It honestly got me through my little heartbreak. No, Megan, she actually called me up and asked about your story, and then she wrote the album. That's why it's so relatable. Right. I told her everything. I was like, how does she know so much about my life? Oh, seriously. I I think the last uh Casey Musgrav Musgraves, her album, that's what I felt like. I was like, girl, how do you know this about me? Who told you? I love when like it's a little it hits hard sometimes, but I love when I can listen to a song and I'm like, oh, thank you, girl. Yeah, I like it. Thanks for putting it into words. I really resonate. What's your favorite song? Oh I have a couple. Okay. Let me pull it up. Honestly, I love them all. But I think wedding dress is my favorite song on the album. I think it just hit like deeply. Moment of silence. Moment of silence for that song. Thankfully, now I listen to it and I'm kind of like, oh thank god that I don't necessarily feel that way anymore. Because I don't, I feel like there's hope again. Yeah, like there's hope again type of thing. But when I first listened to this album and I heard that song, oh my god, no. I'm like crying on my way to the airport. And I was with my sister and my dad, and I was like, nah, they can't see me right now. Like, I gotta look out the window and just I can't. You know what song I think is really relatable? And it's something that I tell my friends all the time. You the six months song. Well, that song came out way before the album came out. Yeah. Because it's true, like, what doesn't kill you? They they always come back. Like, men are so easy, they always come back. They always come back. So that song is I think every girl can relate to that song. For sure. Beautiful things. Oh no, when you were like, listen to this song makes me think of you. When you sent it to me? You sent it to me. Yes, yes. I sent it to you. Yeah, and I was like, oh my gosh, and I listened to it and I was like, how romantic. No, that song makes me think of all my friends because like my friends have been through some stuff. Fucking sex. But it's okay. I also love waiting for the okay. Can I tell you why I relate to these songs? Yeah, tell me why you relate to them. Okay, so I related to I really related to wedding dress because I've I really felt that I was so in love with someone, and I literally could not imagine my life without this person. I was like, oh my god, it has to be this guy. Like, there's no other way. Uh-huh. And when she came out with this album and she put that song on the brick and album, I was like, oh shit. This is exactly how I feel. Like, if I'm gonna miss him for the rest of my life, like that's gonna suck. But if I have to miss him at all, please just let it be right now. Like, please don't let this man linger in my head. And I feel like now that I've been moving on and I've been dating and I've been seeing other people, I really I'm like, oh thank god that I don't feel that way because he's not in my head all the time. But it has helped, has it not? Yeah, it definitely has helped. And it's not something like lingering in my brain anymore. Whereas like before when I That's why it's so important when people say you really do have to try to move on, like you have to try to move on. Number one advice. It's like, you know that song? What song? That perky song that goes, whenever a boyfriend and I break up, my world is lost and I'm all alone. Then the love bug bites me. And bam! And I get back up or something like that. Yeah, something like that. That was me. Life's too short to be heartbroken, girl. Life's too short to be alone and be like, oh my gosh, my world is ending. Like someone no, there's always better. There's always better. And there's always more, even if they're not better, then they might be a good time. That's true. You know, like they may be just as bad, but they're not the same person. And they're fun. Exactly. Like a good time is sometimes all you need. Like just someone to take you out and create more bad memories with them. You know what though? I really don't have bad memories. I feel like I've been dating for like the last like couple months. Yeah, like seven months, right? Kind of like, mm-hmm. Nothing crazy. Um, but I definitely only have good memories. Like, there's nobody that like made me hate my life, except that one date where I had to walk like four miles and like a beach and no mamas.

SPEAKER_00 16:11

No, no, it's always so funny. Celeste's like, guys, I'm still walking. Guys, are you there?

SPEAKER_01 16:16

I'm still walking. No, and then she goes, guys, I owered myself back to my corner. He was a good guy. He was such a good guy, such a sweetie pie. I was just the walker. He was a walker, and I don't think I was ready at that time. Yeah, I was not ready. So it just needed to be this way. What are we talking about? Oh, my date. Yeah. So not it wasn't it wasn't a bad date. It was just a lot of walking. And he was a really good thing. You think that's been your worst date? Yeah. I think so. Which is good. This is a lot because the date was still good. He just really wanted to take me on a walk, man. Like I could have brought my are you serious? I have blisters. Are you guys serious? Like I could have brought my dog. You're like, Bailey would have liked this day better. My mom is so cute. She goes, You guys are just you guys have been giggling in your episodes. I'm so happy. Oh no, because honestly, I'd be having a great time on here. Um okay, so yeah. I related to that song because of that. That song still gets me here and there when I listen to it, but I did listen to it yesterday and it didn't have the same effect. So I think that's progress. Lots of progress. Wait, I don't know if you want to keep this in, but you know, I've been watching um the Fifty Shades saga again. You know that song? The song? It's in there. Wait, what song? The song. My song? Yes. Like the the song. Well, I have two. The song. The one that triggers me. What's it called? It's so bad. Oh, lover, you should have come over? Oh, no way. Yes. In the scene where she's like, I'm going to New York, and he's like, the answer is no, and she's like, um, I wasn't asking. And then she shows up to dinner and she's like, we should talk about it. He's listening to it as he's cooking. Yeah, I was like, who's playing that song right now?

SPEAKER_02 18:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 18:34

I don't listen to that song anymore. Good. I'm really thankful. Yeah, I don't listen to that song anymore. I'm not happy. I'm thankful. Yeah. What is your favorite song on the album? Um Bells and Whistles. Uh yeah. That's a good one. I relate to it too. I'm sorry your girl is lame, but Yeah. Sorry about it. Do what you want, buddy. No, and it's so funny because I feel like there really, really isn't ever drama with my partner. But sometimes it's okay to pretend that there is. You know, when you listen to a song, you're like, Oh my. It's okay to get mad. No, but that song makes me feel like sometimes I ask him, like, have you ever dated someone? As he's like, emotional, high maintenance. I'm like, no, as funny as me. Um dead. Or as uh creative as me. He's like, no, no, no, I have it. Right. I'm like, so you've been bored your whole life. Congrats. But yeah, that's what that song reminds me of. I'm like, dang it. I wonder if my man's ever like, what did I get myself into? Nah, he loves it over here. Yeah, I'm sure he loves it. Right. Like, I know you listen. Right, right. He's walking in his car right now, like, yeah. You know what he does for work. So, like, just make sure him like driving but listening to our podcast. Um, another song that I really, really love is Waiting on the Rain. That one's good. Yeah. And I really like related to the song too because guys, I would just like to preface that this is my only experience. Like, if I talk about this a lot, it's because this is my only experience. Like, I this was my only relationship. Um and so I whenever I listen to the song, I would really be like waiting on the rain. It talks about how you guys like need to listen to it. If you haven't listened to the Megan album, uh go listen to it. Just do it, yeah. Please go listen. Um Yeah, but waiting on the rain, if you listen to it, it talks about how she would lay in his arms and she knew it wasn't right and she knew it wasn't for her, that he wasn't the one for her, but she just was waiting on the rain, like she was waiting for something to come crushing down on her. And I think that was my situation a hundred percent. And I learned from that, and I will never be in a situation where I'm like, I'm just waiting for things to fall apart. Like, no, no, no, no, no. We're not gonna let see the signs, yeah, see the signs and get up out of there, right? But I really don't know. That reminds me of you in the beginning of the year. What song? Table for two. Oh fuck. In the beginning of the year, in the beginning of the year, yeah. We're in April now, lots has changed. Yeah, but I'm like, this girl, this freaking girl. I was driving to the park to read, and that song came on, and I was laughing. I was like, This is Celeste. She had her moment. That's a good one. That is a good one. What's your favorite Megan song? I feel like I know what it is, but I can't remember the title of it. Mine? No, mine. Oh, mine is off the blue album. Mine says too. I really liked Break Your Ray Back. But my favorite one was Third Times the Charm. Ooh, yeah, that one's good. I really like the song Wonder. Yeah, you do love that song. I love that song. I'm just like And the reason I love Megan is because she is such a girl's girl. She wrote that song for her friend that was going through a situation like that. And I'm like, I just love you. I really think that she is so talented. She's so creative. Like, no, she has a gift. Like, who the hell comes up with a song called Wedding Dress? And no. No, seriously. And I love no, because I feel like I've said this multiple times. Like, I wonder what her future husband's in a thing. Yeah. But the thing is, she doesn't care. She's like authentically herself. She doesn't care. She's like, yeah, this is me, and this is how I feel right now. Um, a song that makes me and my mom cry does Mama. I lied. Ooh. That song, oh my gosh. Like, it's so funny because when I first listened to that song, it did not make me cry. And I sent it to my mom, and I didn't even know it made her cry. And one time we were in the car, it just came on my shuffle and she was like starting to tear up. And I'm like, what is it? She goes, change it. Just change it right now. She Megan hadn't even started singing. Like it was just the opening part. Yeah. And I was like, Mom, she's like, it just makes me sad, you know? And then I listened to it like a couple months ago and it made me cry. And I was like, oh my gosh, like, freaking man, dude. No, she's just, I love her. She's so good. I think she's also so cute. Like, she just she embodies she embodies a girl. She's seriously just a girl. I love her. I really um I think it's so funny that we get into these albums. Like during our program, we were into the Morgan Wallace. Oh my gosh. We listened to that album. What's it called? Um, I don't even know what it's called. Me either. Um the problem? I think so. Yeah. Okay. That freaking album. We had it on repeat all day long. If they had no listeners, that's because we were dead. I love Morgan Wallin. I do too. I hate that I love him, but I love him. I know, I hate that I love him too. You know who I love right now? The album I'm on right now is the Luke Holmes album. Oh, honestly, I haven't listened. Honestly, it'll make you cry because like he is such a good man. I love good men. You know, like he gives me hope. Luke Holmes gives me hope. He really does sound like. If only there's a few more out there like you, the world might be better. Oh, I love him so much. Dude, I'm really sore. From getting the golf balls?

unknown 24:40

No.

SPEAKER_01 24:41

I went to the gym yesterday. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Are you serious right now? I hadn't gone to any classes for a week because I went out of town so abruptly. Um, but I I went to one class on Monday and I was a little sore after my abs were sore. I was like, nah. I am if you were to make an album right now, what would you name it? That's a crazy question that just came to me. I would name it. Anti-man. Oh. It would be a eight album. Oh.

SPEAKER_02 25:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 25:19

Anti-man. Anti-man, yeah. Anti-man. Um what would you but not yes, exactly. Okay, I'm glad you said that because not every man every man in the world. There are some good men. What would you name your album? Like Luke Holmes. I would name my album for this particular season. The word like finally like comes to mind like finally good. Finally ready. Or also like waiting. Cause I'm just like waiting for the program to start. I'm waiting for like my trips that I have. But I think finally, like finally happy, finally ready probably would be my album. That's cute. Yeah, because I feel like I'm like, oh hey, I finally feel like I can just start the next chapter in my life. Like I'm just like I'm in a good place. Yeah. Like I feel like I'm in a good place where I'm just kind of like, honestly, not even a new chapter. Like I'm reading a book saga. I'm on the next book right now. Yeah. Like that book is over. I feel like I'm starting a new book.

unknown 26:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 26:18

Or maybe mine would be like starting over or something. Because I really do feel like I have just or like resume. Yeah, yeah. Like you paused for a minute there, you know? Resume. I did pause there for a minute. That's okay. I paused. I paused for a year. I really did. And I'm back and I love it. So I'm just like, I'm ready. I'm I'm writing this new book. I'm so excited. Another song that I really, really love is Convincing. Oh yeah. That one's cute. It's such a cute, like falling in love kind of song. It's kind of how I feel. No, obviously it's not how I feel right now, but like that's how you're like Yeah, you're like, oh that giddy crush. Yeah, also I love having a crush. I still have a crush. You have a crush? I think we have a crush. Only one. Only one. Yeah. I yeah, I only have one crush, too. Um okay, well, while we're on the grill chat topic, I feel really bad because I was like kind of seeing the sky. We only went on one day. It didn't it was good, but it wasn't sparks. No sparks, yeah, which is okay. Yeah. But I wanted to give it another shot because I just feel like sometimes maybe first impressions are hard to be perfect. Exactly. So I try to be understanding about that. Like sometimes people are just nervous, and you know, sometimes I'd be carrying the conversation. Like, it's okay. I feel like I'm not very shy. Right? No, you know. And some people are shy, and that's okay, but I feel like in other situations I have been shy, and so I try like I remember the first date I ever went on after my breakup. I was shy, I was shy, I was so nervous, I just couldn't imagine going on a freaking date, and I was not myself, and that was different for me, and so that's why I try to be so understanding, but in the midst of that, I kind of came across somebody else, and so like I just haven't figured out how to let this other guy know, and I don't know what to do. Um, are you asking me? Yeah, our viewers, if you're listening, what should she do? No, I think all you can do is be honest because if you're not the one for him, like just let him continue trying to find the one, you know. Like the people now looking back, the people that it didn't work out with, I'm so happy that it did not work out with them. Like, even if in the moment it stung a little, I'm like, thank God we didn't go on another date or I didn't get wrapped up in you. Like so not that he's better off without you, but he's better off but he's better off finding someone that has that spark, you know? And also unless he's delusional or like mentally ill, he probably didn't feel the sparks either. Yeah, like he may have been very attracted to you, but sparks go both ways, you know. So like Okay, we'll have to write up a text after this. Yeah, just a good, solid, wish you well. Yeah. Okay. You know, I want us to both find people that we love or that we connect with better, maybe. Yeah. He'll be okay. He'll be fine. And that's a main thing. He's gonna be fine. Yeah, we're all gonna be fine. I feel like you're so um aware of what heartbreak feels like that you never want someone else to feel like that. Yeah, that's why you keep saying, I don't want to hurt his feelings, I don't want to hurt his feelings. But it's okay. Like you're not giving him any terrible news. You know, you're not crushing his dreams. Like he's okay. It was one day. Yeah, like he's okay. I mean, he's gonna be sad. Like he he thought he was in a bag of baddie and didn't. That's okay. There will be others for him. He'll be fine. There will be more for him. He's tall, he's 6'5. He's got he got five points. Yeah, he's gonna be fine. He's gonna be fine. Someone is gonna love that. Moving on. Thank God we talked about this though. I was gonna ask you earlier, but I was like, I don't know, maybe I'll ask around the pod. We'll see if we keep it in. I think we should though. Yeah, this is our pod. We say what we wanna say. It's about us. What are you so seriously serious about? Um, I don't know what you're so serious about. Me? What is it? One thing about Celeste is she will make the most out of every hour in her day. You live so many days in one day. What you what I do in a week, you do in a day. The socializing that I do in a week, you do in a day. Yeah, I just want to be there for everybody. Like, I don't know. You don't want to say no to anything. Yeah, I don't want, yeah. I don't want to miss out on anything. I don't I never want to say no. I but it's okay to say no. Yeah, you need to be seriously serious about saying no. I think I do because end up exhausted. Like at the end of the day, I'm beat. Like, I'm like, oh that's like making so many people happy is difficult. No, yeah, like this morning was just I feel like I did three different things. Like I'm like, how are you? I'm dead because you FaceTime me before you come over and you're like, oh well, I ended up hitting some I went to the range with my friend, and and I have to plan an outfit because I'm going somewhere after our plans today. Mind you, our plans today were already all day plans, like to record, edit, go to a Pilates class. Yeah, and then you have plans after that. Like, girl, I'm a busy girl. You are a busy girl. I hope you're eating all your meals in those. Yeah, no, I'm getting fed. Okay. You're like the benefit to saying yes. Everybody feeds me. Like this morning I had Chick-fil-A breakfast. Got fed. Period. I came over here, I had a toast uh, got fed. I'm sure we will eat later today with Nikki. Got fed. I'm gonna I'm gonna see somebody later tonight. I'm gonna get fed. And you're gonna have dessert. Yes, I'm gonna have dessert. Oh my gosh, that sounds so good. I hope I have more than dessert.

SPEAKER_00 32:27

We won't get this in, but you get kissed one time. My girl's deprived.

SPEAKER_01 32:40

She's been waiting on this rain. Like, I've been waiting on this rain, you see? I've been waiting on the rain. I've been waiting for the rain.

SPEAKER_00 32:48

Okay. Look at my story before. I didn't even tell you what I was seriously seriously about. You said what I was so seriously about. What are you so seriously serious about? Let me think about it.

SPEAKER_01 33:13

Um, speaking of, he just texted me. You know the teacher when teachers are like, I'm waiting. I'll wait. No, I've been, no, listen, I have had that thing in my head from that professor at the at the school. What did she say? Because I've been thinking about it for the longest time. Hold on. All right. That was one of them. One of them. But there is another one that would leave. Everybody got that. Everybody got that. Everybody got that. No, she would be like, she would lecture for 40 minutes, five minutes and be like, everybody got that. And then two minutes later, everybody got that. Everybody got that. Everybody got that. That's how she would look at people and I was like, everybody got that. She would make eye contact you. What did she tell me on the last day that I had my phone? What did she tell me? It was like our last day of the program. I took my phone out to send a text, and we're not allowed to be on our phones. Oh my gosh. I used to always say this to you. Frick. It was um I'm so serious, or you better hope, or what was it? I don't know, dude. I literally lived it and I can't, I cannot remember it. I think she like traumatized me. No, she went in on Celeste. Like she checked you. Well I thought You better be happy. Something like that. You better, you're so lucky, or no, because this was It's when she was mad. She was mad. Okay, well, retell the story. I literally, I don't remember. I just remember I was in the hall and I pulled my phone out and she came up to me. I was trying to be slick. I was trying to be slick and she pulled up, and I swear she was like in another hallway. She was far as bright. She just appeared. No, that's how she was. She would just pop up out of nowhere. She was scary. She was so scary. I remember I would get my nails done. You weren't allowed to have your nails done. I would have my nails in my pockets all the time. So I broke every rule. Every rule. No, they'd make a rule. She looked at me like getting broken. Breaking it right now. Um yeah, and so I was just really scared of her. But she came up to me and she was like, I remember she called me, she took me into the room, and she said something like, She said something like, You better hope, you better. No. It's gonna come to me. Yeah, it'll come to us. Um but she would say that, like, everybody got that. Everybody got that. Right. That's probably where I got that from. Probably she would say, Alright, though. Alright, alright. She was crazy, dude. Like, I will always remember this part in class where she was saying, like, what's your story? Like, what's the reason why you want to go into this profession? Like, you know, trying to be very um inspirational. She goes, You gotta have something that's different, not the same answer as the person next to you. So she like picks on this girl and she's like, What's your why? And the girl literally says two words and starts crying. Like, she just obviously it was something very deep to her, and she goes, That that right there is your story. That is what separates her? Yeah. You're Nikki's holding up a finger right now, but that's exactly how she was. No, she was like Dr. Bailey from Grace Anatomy. Like the montages that they would have, that was literally her. But she was like, That is your story, and she goes, somebody else. Anybody. This girl gets up and she starts telling her reason as to why she wants to, and probably like 20 seconds in, start to cry. And she goes, All right, all right, no, everybody needs to cry.

SPEAKER_00 36:58

Like, that's crazy. That girl looked broken. She looked broken. That was crazy.

SPEAKER_01 37:08

You need some water. I'm okay. Everybody got that. No, that was such a time. Uh wow, that was sometimes I miss it. Really? Yeah. I think I just missed hanging out with you. I don't know if I missed that program. I miss learning, actually. That was fun. That was fun. We were locked in. Okay, you were locked in. Oh, then hold on.

SPEAKER_00 37:31

We there is no we in locked in. Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_01 37:38

But I'm in a better place. So next time that we're yeah, I could depend on you more. I could copy off you. Right, yeah. You didn't even copy off me. I wasn't the number one tester. Alright, alright. What am I so seriously serious about? Okay. I am so seriously serious about decluttering. Oh, me too. Uh, my mom keeps getting mad at me. Like, did you hear it today on the phone? That's like the third time ever to tell you something. She's like, girl, you need to get rid of clothes. Like, you have way too much, nothing fits in your closet anymore. Like, you don't even have a room to shop. You have no because I'll come home with fucking bags. And she's like, girl, where are you gonna put that? Like, you don't have anywhere to put that. Like, I'll make room. I'm like, don't worry about it, Mom.

SPEAKER_00 38:26

I will figure it out.

SPEAKER_01 38:27

No, you have a walk-in closet, a wardrobe, and dressers. Do you have stuff under your bed? Shoes. I have um baskets with shoes and heels. Me. I just cleaned under my bed and I decluttered I threw away a lot of stuff. I'm really proud of you. Um But I I feel like I ha obviously have a lot of clothes, but I don't have a lot, like a ridiculous amount of clothes. So I do need to buy something to put more clothes in. Because like I've been cleaning out my closet and I'm like, okay, I'm starting to take out stuff that I've only had for a year or two. Like, that's not financially smart. So I need to get like some dressers or something. Yeah, for sure. But yeah, my mom said I have two days to declutter, so two days? She put a time limit on you. She's like, if I don't give you a time limit, you're not gonna do it. Like, I just have to give you a time limit. But the thing is that I'm very good about that stuff. Like, I did it recently. I did it like a couple months ago, and nobody told me to do anything. I did it myself. I just don't feel the need to get rid of clothes right now. Yeah, everything I have is what I need. And what you want if I would have gotten rid of it, I would have gotten rid of it six months ago. But no, I need it. I see myself wearing it. So yeah, that's what I'm so seriously serious about. What are you so seriously serious about? I think Mexican food is the best food. And I will not let anyone try to convince me of anything different. It's just the craftsmanship that it takes to make a good, solid Mexican meal. Like my mom, she made tostadas yesterday and she did ground beef. But it's not just the ground beef. She like chopped up everything really finely and made the salsa. And I told my mom there's so many steps to making salsa. Like, are you gonna boil the pepper, onion, and everything that goes in it? Or are you gonna grill it and then you gotta peel everything, and then you gotta blend it, and then you gotta see if it tastes good, and then add more stuff to it. Like, it is a process, it's not no mac and cheese. It's a everything's always a process, though. Yes, but our process is the best process. Yeah, I agree. It gets so good, it's so comforting. Caso fresco, who else got that? I love queso fresh. I literally love queso fresco. And I love Mexican sour cream better than like regular sour cream. Oh, I love it. I literally. I put that on my sandwiches. Oh, I used to do wait, no, you just unlocked a memory for me. My mom used to make my sandwiches and I'd be like, no mom's kessel. I only want kessle, mom. With the ham. Yes, the fake ham. Oh my gosh. Back when I used to be able to have white bread or mayonnaise. It was just like mayonnaise, bread, mayonnaise, ham, and queso fresco. So good. And sometimes you'll put an avocado in there. I love avocado. That's what we should have for lunch. Yeah.

unknown 41:09

Avocate.

SPEAKER_01 41:11

We should have sandwiches. Yep. That sounds so good. Mm-hmm. What else? Yeah, give me another one while we're here. Yeah, that's what I'm so seriously serious about because there is no place like my mom's cooking. I agree. My mom makes spicy sats. Everybody always says like grandma is like the kids when they come over, they'll be like, Grandma, is it spicy? How spicy is it? As far as like skill level, I think my dad is the best cook I know because he can just make anything and it just comes from his heart and his stomach and his brain. Like he just he doesn't even follow a recipe. My mom, though, her food is probably the most comforting to me. And it's just so good, especially because she doesn't do it that often because my dad does a lot of the cooking, but when she cooks, it's amazing. What is your favorite meal? I'll tell you what's mine from your dad's. Um, I love that steak that he made the other day. My dad's steak is crazy. Everyone says that that's their favorite thing from my dad. And the chimichuri? The chimichuri. You and Haley stealing the chimichuri hiding her. I literally am picking up the next day and Celeste was turn. Oh my birthday. And she goes, Haley, I'm gonna hide this. Don't worry, I'm gonna hide it for you. I'm like unrolling all the linen and there's like chimichuri hidden in there. I forgot about it. Dang it. But don't worry, because Haley puts it in her purse. But she was not leaving without the chimichuri. But she could have left with an extra one. But definitely my dad like buys dishware to give away. Like those little tins were yeah, were so that's for people to take. But my favorite meal from my dad is anything he makes for breakfast. Like his chilaquilas go crazy. No, I've been dying to try those. I thought we were gonna have them the other day when I step over, but we did not. I know. I don't know where my parents went. They were gone the next day in the morning. No, they were here, but it was their anniversary. So they probably just had a good time the night before. They were drinking. They were. I just a bottle. Yeah. So yeah, they didn't want to get up and make his breakfast. Damn, yeah, I remember. No, my dad makes really good chili quitas, but he also makes really good avocado toast. Like he puts microgreens, radishes. He makes it look like beautiful, like the ones that you see. Yeah. Well, that's what we ate that day. We made avocado toast. Yeah, but it was not as pretty as the ones that he does. It's pretty to me. Thank you. But my mom, chilarlos. So good. I don't even dad, you can't compete with those. My mom's chilarnos are. Okay, I want to try them. I'm like, Laura, I know you're listening. Can you make me some and invite me over for dinner? And then when my mom makes enchiladas, you can make me over dinner because my mom makes the best enchiladas. She makes them with papas and chorizo. Oh, yes, they're my favorites. I just asked her. We were supposed to make them the other day because I was like, okay, mom, I need to know how you make the red salsa because my mom does it all. So I was like, I need to know how you make the red. Salsa, I need to know how you prepare it because she also makes like a gazillion in one day. Oh, like she makes a ton. That's how my grandma is like in a freaking charola. Yeah. Like for my birthday, every year she would make me enchiladas. And we have a big family, so she would cook for everybody, and then she would still make an additional like 40, 50 enchiladas, and she would freeze them for me. And every day after school, I'd come home and eat enchiladas. Oh my gosh, that was invite me over. I met some of your mom's cooking, like when she made the carne sala and we had tacos. I don't know. Did she make that or did you make that? I made that for you. That was me. Yeah. Oh, I don't know if your mom had already cooked the meat and you were just like assembled. Well, that was fire. I made it myself. Um, that was hard. You literally just put it on the pan and then you season it and easy peasy. Well, it was really good. Like I remember eating it being like, this is gas. Like, this is how y'all eat every day everyone. No, my mom do be cooking though. Yeah. I was about to say that she loves to cook, but I don't know if she does. She's just really good at it. She just does it, yeah. That's how I feel. I was talking to my mom about that because I went over to my man's house because he's a homeowner. Okay. Slaking. And I was over there the other night and I was um making I was making us dinner, and he's like, You're so good at this. Like, do you enjoy this? Like, do you enjoy cooking? And I was like, Yeah, when I'm not expected to though. Like when I'm inspired by a meal. If I see something on TikTok or Instagram or Pinterest, and I'm like, oh, I really want to make that. I'm like, yeah, but for day to day, I just eat what's necessary. I eat the same yogurt bowl, the same ground beef and rice, the same chicken and rice. Like, that does not bother me. But once or twice a week, I'm like, okay, I'm gonna make this cool recipe. Yeah, beautiful, beautiful. Well, XOXO, seriously, just girls. I'm Nikki and I'm Celeste. And we've had so much fun talking. And we can't wait to talk next week. Love you guys. Bye. Bye.
