Here we go again! So I'm at the airport right now with Christina and her dad but they're dropping
me off and I'm flying alone again. So if you guys remember I flew alone last year and that video
kind of blew up a little bit so that was really unexpected because I literally filmed that on my
iPhone and I edited it on my iPhone using iMovie and the editing was so bad but you guys still
liked it so here we are with part two because I'm flying today from Shanghai, China to Honolulu,
Hawaii so that'll be kind of fun. I have this fat zit on my face and yeah it's been three weeks of
eating really badly or two-ish so this is what happens. I'm perpetually bloated now and I need
to get back and work out because I'm not doing well. So I'm here in Shanghai on a like 16 hour
layover because I was flying from Taipei into here so I was here for 16 hours and then in that time
I got my nails done for the first time actually. I got this like blue sparkly color that I'm really
into, I feel like Cinderella. And Christina and her dad are staying here for a little bit longer
because they're gonna go to Chongqing and stuff like that so I'm flying back alone and it's gonna
be a 10 hour flight and aren't you excited for me? I'm really excited to see who my seatmate is
because I am a little bit nervous because last time I haven't always had the best experience
sitting next to people but good thing I'm sitting on the aisle seat today because if you guys
remember last time I kept sitting in the window seat when I was flying alone and it was just
horrible because I always had to pee so it'll be better this time I hope. Okay so I'm literally
crouching on the side of like this walkway right here because I can't find anywhere that's like
isolated because I don't want people to like hear me talk because I know they're probably
gonna get annoyed or they're just gonna be confused as to why I am and today I was meeting
my friend for the very first time her name's Leanne you guys can follow her I'll put her
instagram right here she's so pretty and um I was meeting her for the first time today and I had this
wonderful acne here so in all our pictures they're not even that cute well she looks so cute because
she's so beautiful but I just look like this next to her so I wanted to go to the bathroom because
I need to change but I'm really confused by this bathroom situation because for some reason the
doors are just like locked up and I tried to walk that way because apparently there's another
bathroom that way but then all the signs just keep pointing this way so I'm just gonna wait to go
downstairs which is where my gate is and just go to the bathroom there later because I want to
change out of my current outfit because I'm wearing like a tank top and a midi skirt and
that's not airport ready for me because I mean like I'll survive but I'd rather wear something
more comfortable since I get so cold in the plane I don't know why and I don't want to deal with that
so right now I think I'm gonna go to Starbucks because it's right over there and
I have missed Starbucks so much like I was going like every day in Taipei and then we went to
Miaoli and that was like for two weeks and then I just never got Starbucks at all and I missed it so
I want to go get some. This is so cool to have nails done like I just love it like especially
because like the only color I've ever tried on myself is pink and it's so like unnoticeable so
it's really awesome to have like a really flashy color. I'm excited to see what my mom thinks of
it because she does not like when I paint my nails because it's bad for you and it really
damages your nails but like whatever. This gel was so pretty it was literally um $14 USD. For me
it was $22 because I couldn't download the app that gives you the discount but still $22 for gel
nails and it's super cute. I love it. I also wanted you guys to meet Egghead. Jessica won
him for me in the claw machine. She won four stuffed animals in 20 minutes and she's just
a boss, a shifu. So um this is Egghead. I love him. I think a lot of people just
walked by and saw me kiss him so that's really weird. They're walking by right now.
Okay so yeah this is Egghead. He's so cute. I love him. I like to put him in like random areas
so you should follow my Instagram at kateleigh to watch my stories because I just love Egghead
and I think he's so cute. So yeah that's him. His name's Egghead. I know his real name's Gudetama.
Don't like come for me. I just want to call him Egghead because I think it's kind of cute
and fitting. I don't know why. So yeah let's just go to Starbucks. Guys I kid you not this guy's
name is Meat. M-E-A-T. I'm trying to show you right now. Hold on. Okay so I just went to Starbucks.
Got my caramel macchiato. It's so small and cute. Look at that. It's literally half the size of my
face and it's so cool because I have nails now so like I don't know like when I hold drinks it like
looks better and it makes me happy because I always have like ugly nails and it's just not
cute when you're like holding stuff you know. So now I can be a hand model. Not really because I
literally um pulled off my hangnail and it's bleeding so that was great. I accidentally ordered
my macchiato in hot and I meant cold so they had to redo it and I felt bad but like
I didn't spend like six USD to have to suffer through my drink and I asked for soy milk and
this is really interesting. I guess I've never tried Chinese soy milk in my life and it definitely
tastes different. It like coats your mouth more and their macchiato is definitely a lot less sweet
and the caramel is all stuck at the lid so I can't have any and it's kind of sad because
I love the caramel. The plus here is that they do use paper straws which is really good because
in America they're still using plastic straws so I'm not sure what's going on with that because
if anything I would think America is trying to like change it because
I feel like Americans are more like yeah like climate change is blah blah blah you know so
I don't know. But now I finally found a bathroom. I just walked out from Starbucks and the bathroom
is right there so that's awesome so now I can go change into my comfy outfit.
However the absolute worst thing about flying alone is that you have to take all your stuff
inside so I have my carry-on right here then I have my drink and then I have my backpack so it's
just a lot of stuff I need to be carrying around into the stall and I don't know what I'm going
to do with my drink so hopefully they have like this little handler thing that I can put down.
We're going down. It's quite interesting to be like in this area right here because the last
time I was um at this gate was two or three years ago and oops wait we got to the end of the
escalator. So the last time I was at this gate actually I was going to Korea so I definitely
miss Seoul a lot. I didn't even think it was like that fun I just thought that the food was so good
but I didn't really like the rainy weather because then you can't really do much but
the food was just so good. Also I'm just keep being distracted by my pimples so if you're
distracted then like me too because it's so red and so like 3D you know like I just want to like
not have it obviously. Okay so just got to the gate now and literally there's nowhere to sit
so here I am on the floor. Okay so I'm trying really hard to get a seat but here we are in
Asia and people here are not the most like considerate I guess so they just like to put
all their stuff on all their seats and they're like oh someone's sitting here but a lot of times
they're lying and they're like douchey but you know they don't care they're not actually sorry.
All the folks. This is my little bear that we got in Taiwan. They ended up opening up so um
Christina's grandma had to fix it for me and it actually looks pretty good now.
He's not completely back to normal but you know from here he's fine. Also um the lady next to me
was really nice enough to let me sit there she saw me sitting on the floor so I think she's just
gonna carry one of her kids and like thank you for giving me more faith in the Chinese population
because I know like I can speak for myself like when I'm here in China I just feel like I get more
mean just because everyone is just kind of mean here so like if people are like pushing you and
like rude to you then like you want to be rude back but you should try to be the nice person
and maybe better things will happen to you. We're taking the bus to a place now so here we are on
the plane and I'm sitting what the heck I'm sitting right here and this right here I want to sit here
though because I get all that space. Okay so the guy that's sitting next to me so far seems a little
bit problematic already because he keeps trying to get up and he's window seat and I'm aisle seat so
um I have to keep getting up and like I really don't enjoy that at all so hopefully like one
of us can get upgraded to the seat right in front of us so we don't have to like deal with each
other because yeah. Also I'm in here in the bathroom for that good lighting before we take off
and yeah hopefully you guys can hear me I don't know but yeah we'll see people can probably hear
me talking from the bathroom and they're like walking by right now so not bad. This guy is
hella shook because he's trying to move into the seat that I was talking about that has a lot of
space and the person told him it's a thousand dollars per seat and he's so shook right now
it's kind of funny
whoa whoa whoa we got some extreme turbulence right whoa whoa whoa
um I feel like I'm on a roller coaster a little bit but it's fine it's fun
so it's been an hour into the flight and I feel nausea so
I always get like headache and nausea when I'm in like moving things
but then I'm fine on roller coasters so it literally makes no sense
I stupidly ate too much of my dinner and now I feel kind of sick. I'm about to throw up but
actually I needed to burp so I got is extremely bad like I've never had to I just want to get
there safely and it'll be worth it but no one's like feeling the best on this flight right now
this time but I don't think I'm gonna eat because I am worried that I'm gonna run into like
issues again because I finally feel no nausea and like I feel completely fine right now
I don't have like burping going on anymore so I'm okay
it's such a normal feeling to feel okay right now guys I'm so done right now my wonderful
seatmate grandpa keeps getting up in the past hour he's gotten up five times
to go like chat with his buddies because I think they're on like a tour group thing
like are you kidding me like you have to be more considerate than that if you are the person on the
inside and you did not snatch a window seat I mean an aisle seat because you have to hold vacation to
talk to them later you know so like I'm just trying to sleep out here but they're just he
just keeps getting up and you know he's a nice guy but uh he needs to be more considerate because
I'm tired so here I am dangling on the side like this because I don't want to
have to always get up so here we are
worst night I've ever had I had so much nausea
I feel so much better that being said that was one of the best landings I've had so maybe he
was trying to like make it up for us for the 10 hours of turbulential torture but we got a good
landing it was very smooth and I didn't feel any of that but um but um but um that was nice I guess
but I am nauseous we finally got out I met my mom and my dad's here too oh I see him they're here
hi Danny I took really long because I got random inspection
yeah they opened up everything because um my I had that big box but it's just pineapple cake
but um I don't think people here like not everyone knows what pineapple cake was
so they're like what's that and I was like uh hello but we're back and I'm really happy
it's windier here not as hot my mom said my dad looks younger now that I'm back
I'm excited mom I got my nails done
so she did end up letting me keep my nails on until the end of my brother's wedding which is
like blue theme so keeping these for it and they're also already growing out so that's not
that cute but it's whatever um no one's gonna be looking anyways thank you for making it to the end
of my video hope you guys enjoyed it and I hope this like helps you a little bit because I know
in my last flying alone video a lot of you guys found like more comfort through it or something
and like it sounds scary but it's actually like super easy and super chill to fly alone
and I honestly really like it because it's just easy I guess and you don't really have you can
do whatever you want to do so yeah that's nice the only thing is that uh sitting next to strangers
is always annoying I've never had a pleasant experience yet so this guy just kept getting
up and I felt so nauseous every time and it was just rough and the turbulence was really bad but
usually there are no issues with turbulence like I've never ever gotten sick on a plane before
until this time so that was really really weird but I'm finally all back to normal and
yeah uh thanks for watching don't forget to subscribe whatever whatever um I'm going to be
