Talking 'Bout a Resolution

I know, even my birthday was in September and it's already like been a minute since that. I don't know. It's flying by, and I'm happy that we're entering a new year. It's also just so weird that literally, you know how like everyone has the memes about like when COVID hit and then it's the months in We're going by so slow until it hit like a certain point, and then it just fast forwarded through the whole year.

And then this whole year went by so fast. I don't know if you feel this way, but I feel like the year goes by so slow in the beginning of the year, and then when it hits like summer so fast, of course, and I feel like summer, of course, it hits fast at summer, Like summer should be the time when everything slows down. I know I really should. Yeah, I would say, uh, it's extremely exciting. I think we have so much to look forward to this year, this

upcoming year. I mean, like we have projects coming out, which is like an exciting thing, but even just like more growth, just things to like take with us as we move into the new year. I feel like we've always been kind of like we haven't really done as many New Year's resolutions in the past, but like this year, I definitely want to go into the new year with some thoughts and just some like ideas and things. What

about you? For sure? I And I feel like this is my New Year's resolution every single year, but like I wanna get back into working out consistently, like I want to eat healthy um, and I feel like that's just one of my resolutions every single year and it never happens. But I feel like this year I would definitely to stick to it. I feel like I'm more well we can hold each other accountable because that's also one of my New Year's resolutions. So if we do

it together, then we'll be set. Mannie. You literally have you have flower in your pantry and that's about it. Flower, What do you mean? Like what am I trying to say? You only eat healthy healthy? So that's not true. I just I'm still I have lived in my apartment for a year and I'm still confused on what to buy because what I was doing initially was I was buying too much and then I wasn't eating it in time, and then it was going bad. So then I was like, Okay,

let's just like like lessen everything. And then now I feel like I don't have enough. And it's not because I don't want to eat It's not because I want to eat healthy. It's because well, I do want to eat healthy, but it's because I literally just can't figure out the right balance of like what's enough food for essentially two people in a week? You know what I'm

saying exactly exactly? Is there something that is always on your list of resolutions that you haven't kind of like pulled through with, Like is there something that you've had in your mind for a while and you've wanted to make that change or wanting you know, wanting to like do it, but you haven't. I mean, I feel like I already talked about that, like I I've every single year.

It's like work out, eat healthy, like stay on a you know, on a consistent schedule with that, because I feel like it will just make me feel so much better about myself. But I feel like my new Year's resolution, I don't know if it's a resolution, but I want to like get rid of everything in my closet and just like I'd love to get new clothes. I feel like that will just like be such a great way to start the new year or like a fresh start, you know. Kenzie and I like how many times a

year do we do it? Definitely like at least five times six times in a year, we like literally purge our entire closet and we usually will do a few items on deepop but then we uh donate all of our clothes to like the Homeless Youth, which has been amazing and they're so grateful for it, and it's just

like a beautiful exchange that happens. But I feel like we always are like we always hold onto a few pieces and we're like, Okay, we're gonna wear that obviously, like there's I've had the same like three tank tops that I've had since I was like maybe, and you're like, not get rid of it, and I it's I will say, though, I have an excuse right now, especially because it's like

the holidays, it's getting colder, We're going to Pittsburgh. It's like, I literally there's a few sweaters that I'm like, I will never wear this unless I'm in Pittsburgh, so I should probably hold onto it. And that's my use. Well that's good. Well, the thing is, I got rid of all of my sweaters, so I don't have any. I don't have any winter You definitely need to buy some before the end of the year. Shopping is always fun. You did that on purpose? I don't tell my mother that, Okay, So, Kenzie,

what was overall? Like, how would you say one for you? Like realistically, realistically, I feel like was my favorite year so far ever, like ever ever? I have, Like I have good friends surrounding me. I have like we have a really good relationship. Mom and I have a really good relationship. You have a dog. I haven't. I have

my own dog. Like I feel like a good boyfriend, have a good boyfriend, Like I feel like I have my life in order currently, and I feel like good for you, I don't know, I just feel like I've been really happy this year. That's great. You can probably see that too. Yeah, you've definitely like you've definitely gone through waves as we all do, a like anxiety and just panic attacks and things. And you haven't had his money this year, I've noticed. But I feel like that's

different for you. Huh, this is not your favorite year? Well, it was my favorite year in certain ways, Like I had some really good highs, but I had some low lows that I've never had before. But you know, I feel like we all go through that, and it just happened to hit me at that point. I think like the momentum of picking up traveling again was a lot for me. Um to go from all of us being in lockdown and then quarantine and like all of that to staying at home every day too. Then all of

a sudden, Okay, your schedules picked up really fast. You're going to go to like Paris, You're going to Milan, You're going to New York, and then I went to Vancouver and then I went to Vegas, all within the span of that was like consistent, and I think my body just kind of like shut down and I was like, whoa,

you need to relax. But other than that, I would say my year was really amazing because I moved into my first apartment, I've got some really amazing jobs, I have some amazing movies coming out at the end of this year and the beginning of next and my obviously my baby dog. He is the best thing to ever happen.

So yeah, there was I mean I think like I think that's everyone that's like, Ye're always like every year, everyone's like, oh yeah, there was great moments and bad moments, right, and this here wasn't my best year ever, but I would say, like there were so many good moments in it. Well, yeah, I feel the same. I mean, like, overall it was my best year. But at the same time, like, of course, you are teenagers. Everyone's going to go through ups and downs.

Like whatever, Um, what is something you accomplished this year that you're the most proud of? Mm hmmm, something that I would have done this year, or something that's coming out this year, or just any accomplishment that like, wow, this is a hard question. Wow, this is really hard. Now I'm thinking of mine and I don't even know. I mean, hey, we did this, we did this podcast. That was a huge accomplishment. We've always wanted to do this and where we finally did it. And I feel

like we've had a blast doing it as well. We're acting like this is the end. Guys. We have so much more like sparewell, this has been great by guys. We've done six episodes. Piece out you never know, Um well, I mean you're you're coming out with movies. Yeah, but that wasn't like that. That That's why I'm confused, because when I'm most proud of is the projects that are coming out at the end of this year, but I did not film them this year, right, Well, I feel

like that's how every movie goes. Maybe like I accomplished living in my first apartment. That's great, that was like, that's a real that was a big moment. That was it was a lot moving out on your own. But I've had a very successful time. What about you. I know you're having a hard time thinking up in that

little brain, its brain, You're very smart. Um, I think maybe like this sounds so stupid, but maybe like getting my driver's license, Like I feel like That was a huge moment because obviously you got your license, you moved out, like peace out. Um. But it was like very hard for mom too, let go of me and like let

me get my driver's license. Um. But now I feel like it's just so awesome because I feel like it's like free therapy in a way, like screaming to music in your car, like it's it's the best feeling in the world. I love driving by myself. It's like that's like one of the best forms of therapy a thousand percent.

When people ask like tips, like what are good ways to get rid of not necessarily get rid of, but help lessen your anxiety or your your stress or whatever, I always say, go on a drive and listen to music and just like and just cry. As bonus points if it's raining outside, oh my god, true, that just makes it really depressing. But you feel like you're in a music video at the same time. But but like, when there's depressing music and you want to cry, it's

the best best feeling ever. You usual need to let it out on a different kind of like I guess topic, how do you think you could improve your relationship with yourself for next year? That's like a deep question. Um, I don't know. I feel like I know how you could. I think you could be a little nicer to yourself. Yeah, that's what I was trying to think of what to say. But I feel like I'm definitely super hard on myself. I mean everyone is, especially when it comes to like

self love around your body and your image. I feel like there's so many negative feelings that you have towards it. And hey, I do too as well, like we both do. But I just wish you could see like yourself the way that I see yourself, because you're so beautiful and amazing. Don't make you almost made me cry every single episode. This is so stuff. Okay, wow wow, I really just like threw her off. You totally did. Um. Well, that's the same thing with my resolution. If I do that,

then it will make me feel better about myself. But I'm not just saying physically, I'm saying mentally, like even even working out treat it less of like, Okay, I just want to look fit, but it's like, you know, I want to. I feel like it will make myself feel better and like, like mentally mentally and just like having a consistent schedule of something totally. I feel like

it's just so good for you. I don't know, Yeah, when you're on the right track and you have something to look forward to, and like even for me, just as little as like knowing I have a workout at nine am, I'm like high dread it. But then the second I finished the workout, I feel so accomplished and I'm like, I'm so proud of myself for doing that. I think that's what we need to do, is like give ourselves more credit and pat ourselves on the back for like little things just being like, wow, I even

like I made my bed. That's a great start, you know, And then the rest of the day, I'm just going to accomplish little things here and there. Right. So I feel like that's something that's like a huge resolution for me at least. I don't know about you, Kenzie, but I don't know. No, I feel that what else, like, oh, a huge resolution that I'm I definitely am trying to read more. I am reading. Me and Eddie just went to the cutest bookstore and was Hollywood. It was called

book Soup. I don't know if you've heard of it, but it's so beautiful there and I love it. And we got a few books and some candles and like things. It was and we got boots a little chewy baton so cute. Um and so yeah, that was that was a great start. I feel like I'm really I started. Eddie went surfing the other day. I took him to go surfing and then I read my book on the beach while he surf. It was really fun. So we

used to be so into reading. Well I did, so did I. Kenzie, you always tell people the wrong story. So what's the story? The story as I when we were in school before we became homeschool. Yes, I think we told them this. You guys know, I cried. I didn't want to read. I think, yeah, that's exactly the story. So what's the what's your maybe? Well if you didn't hear that, Yeah, I used to cry because I didn't

want to read my book. Okay, guys, I'll admit it. Fine, but we're moving to the new year, and I have a new resolution, and that is to not cry what I'm reading. She wasn't even reading sad books because she was just so sad that she was reading. Like I was on a comfortable couch and I started to sleep. Okay, how do you intend on doing like anything differently in the new year, if you have any Honestly, I don't. I don't know. Um, I mean, you don't have to

say anything. I was just wondering. I don't know. I feel like I think we've talked about this before, but I feel like I don't have a filter, and I think I need to have more of a film. I don't know, And I don't actually think that's true, because well, you don't have a filter, but in like a very good way. Like you you never say you're not like a mean person, so you don't look bad to say no, no, no no. But I don't know. Sometimes I feel like some things that come out of my mouth just just

need to stay in my head. I do that sometimes and I don't realize I've said it out loud. I thought it was like a thought that just stayed in my head, right, and then I realized I just blurted it out for the world. You know what I need to do differently. I need to learn how to cook. Yes, oh, good idea, I need to do that too, But I also need to be better at spending money and saving money. Okay, if you mean to be better at saving what you mean, That's what I meant totally. I think I think like

we both could do that more. I I try and save my money as much as I can. Why are you looking at me like that? I think we're both terrible at it. M hm. I get through waves, but we're so grateful to be in the position that we are. Like also the fact, Okay, I'm just so excited for next year for the reason that you're going to move out. Sorry, Mom,

I know it's nothing against my mom. Every time we talked about it, I feel other than it's so exciting that you get to like find your own place and make it your own and decorate it and just like learn how to take care of myself. Yeah, it's crazy too, because like I have always been such an independent child, but then moving out, it's like, oh my gosh, there's so many things that I don't know and you have to figure out and there's so many things I still

don't know. But it's like it's so fun getting to like learn that side to yourself, get to learn that side of you. Yeah, I think it would be super fun and I'm excited for Mom to like come over and stuff. Trust me, you're going to call your Like, okay, call my mom. I called mom like twelve days, twelve times. In the first day I moved in, I was like, Mom, where do I put this? Where's this go? Like, I

don't know what this is, like I'm scared to touch it. Well, when she was gone for like a second, I she was in Pittsburgh, I taught myself how to wash the dishes. Nice big stuff. So what about the laundry. Have you done the laundry? Nope, I have not done the laundry, and I'm a little scared for that part. But it's honestly really easy. Like I always tread doing laundry, but then the second I do it, I'm like, oh that was so quick and like I just got it over with. Well,

that's my new Year's resolution, learn how to do laundry. Wow, you're becoming such an adult. This is a huge step for you. Um. What are three words to describe your mm hmm, I would say, Um, there was growth? Is that a good bye grow word? Gross? Um? Fun? It was fun and challenging because I faced a lot of new challenges that I've never had before. I second all three words that you just said no way, I'm okay, wow.

I mean, but if it's honest, it honestly is I mean, I can think of some words, but might take me a second. Like it was, but it was it was cool, it was hip, it was little um um, I think it was. Um. I feel like I was more spontaneous this year. Yeah, you did some surfing, yep. I felt like I tried new things. You got hit by longboard. I did get hit by longboard. We're not going to talk about it. Um. I feel like it was bright, like nice and run and bright, and I would definitely

stay challenging. There's definitely some parts of the year that have been a lot, but that's that's what the New years for to overcome, of course, But I feel like, honestly, for a year, we're going to go through challenges, whether it be on a large scale or a small scale, Like it's just like bound to happen, and I think that's a part of being human and we can't, you know, feel bad for going through those times. But as long as, like, when we're not going through that, we're making the most

of our lives and being as happy as possible. And just like relishing, and being young. I like, it's so weird because I've always wanted to grow up so fast, and now I just want to be twelve again. I know, I always I always tell Mom, like I just want to stay when I turned eighteen. I just want to be eighteen forever. And that's it. Well, babe, that's not gonna happen. Sorry that we're referencing in a Dell quote. It's such a funny thing. Um, maybe I'll become a

full time TikToker. Okay, we all know that's not gonna been. I'm scared of making TikTok because I feel like I don't do a good job. If you could give yourself advice going too, what would it be? I think just be more open minded, I think, m um, because now I feel like I've gotten more closed off and like I don't I don't interact with people as much anymore. I'm more of a home body now, and it's really weird.

I feel like I need to like get out of my comfort zone and make new friends and totally try new things. Yeah, I like that advice. I would kind of say the same. You know me, I don't get out much, but I'm turning into you, but I've started to go out a little bit more turning into me.

We're doing a freaky Friday situation. I'm down for it. No, but yeah, I think there's so much to look forward to, and honestly, one of my favorite things with next year's we're going to bring on so many guests for our podcast.
