Good morning. Justin Bieber just dropped
a new album. I can't believe that
sentence is coming out of my mouth. It's
Friday morning and I woke up to a new
Justin Bieber album. I could not stay up
till midnight last night to wait for it.
And I was like, it'll be midnight
Eastern time. It was probably midnight
LA, like California Pacific Standard
Time. I don't even know. I was just
like, we're going to bed. So, it's the
best start to my day. Ryan got up early,
went for a run. I stayed in bed and
literally blasted this album. I'm like
halfway through, maybe almost halfway
through. There's like a lot of songs. I
think there's 17 songs. Got my little
Nantucket sweatshirt on. It's Friday. We
move out of this unit on Monday, so
there is a lot to be done. And I thought
I was going to get it all done during
the week, but seriously, the week ended
up being so busy. So, go watch the last
vlog. All I have today is the podcast
recording at 4:00, which is a really
exciting podcast recording because we're
announcing our Gals in the Go rebrand,
which I can finally say, oh my gosh,
it's epic. If you haven't seen our new
cover photo and all of our new branding
and logos and everything, go to the Gals
in the Go podcast Instagram. It's a good
time. Podcast every Wednesday. Gals on
the go. The new cover was so needed, you
guys. Oh my gosh. Like, it just is so
much more grown up, so much more us. And
yeah, so today we're going to start the
cleanout process. We're using Roadway
Moving and we are utilizing their
packing feature. So, I don't have to
like pack a ton. I just have to pack for
our Airbnb that we're going to be in for
a month while we wait for our new
apartment to be ready mid August. So, I
just have to think about anything I
could possibly need. But, good morning.
I just wanted to say hi and then I'm
listening to Justin Bieber's new album
and don't text. No, I'm kidding. So Ryan
works from home on Friday so we are
co-working today so I have to come in
here to vlog. He just hopped on a call
and I am going through my closet right
now. I'm starting to pull things that I
will want to have with me during this
next month in the Hamptons, Cape Cod,
other things, you know. And then I also
pulled some things that I wanted to add
to my pickle shop. Live in New York?
Actually, I think you don't even have to
live in New York now. I think they're
shipping my stuff out. Pickle handles my
closet. Pickle is an amazing way to rent
clothes. I have so many of my favorite
pieces on there. So, please treat them
with care. But I love it because it's
like, you know, dresses we wore to the
live show were these really crazy fun
things that I bought for a specific
thing that I don't really wear all the
time or whenever it may be like
something for a bachelorette. Like,
there's so many things on my pickle. So,
definitely download the pickle app and
look up Danielle Caroline. I have so
many pieces and I'm almost positive
they're shipping things out cuz they
handle my closet. So if you're in New
York, you can rent it via courier or you
can go into the Pickle store in West
Village and try it on or I think they
ship it now. So I was pulling like a bag
of things that I'm sending to Pickle
this morning for them to add to my
closet for the summer. And yes, I'm
doing like a lot of things
simultaneously. Quickly popping in to
say thank you to BetterHel for
sponsoring this video. As you guys are
seeing in this vlog, I'm going through a
big change. Actually, a couple changes.
I'm moving out of my apartment and I'm
moving in with my boyfriend which is so
exciting. It's definitely like a new
chapter for me. I've lived alone for the
last 4 years. I have loved living in
that apartment and now I'm entering a
new era of Danielle which is seriously
so exciting. But I remember too when I
was moving to New York, graduating
college, like all of those things are so
exciting but also very nerve-wracking at
the end of the day. And when I'm going
through big changes in my life, I really
rely on therapy. And that's where
BetterHelp comes into play. I seriously
love the fact that I can open up my
computer and just hop on to therapy. I
don't need to go to an office. I don't
have to wait in a waiting room. I don't
have to walk anywhere. I literally open
my computer, I do a video call, and I
feel so seen and so heard. I love that
so many more people in my life are
starting to go to therapy because it is
amazing. I seriously couldn't recommend
it more. Like I had a friend text me
yesterday saying that she just started
therapy. She's been so anti- therapy
forever. And I think she's really
enjoying it. She's like, "I love
ranting." Whatever. And that seriously
made me so happy because I I don't know
one person that I've, you know, said,
"Hey, I love going to therapy. You would
too." That didn't end up liking it.
There is not one therapy session that I
get off of and I'm like, "Oh, that gave
nothing." Like there is just always
something to unpack. I really appreciate
when my therapist offers new
perspectives, too. Like if I'm
complaining about something, it's like,
"Oh, well, did you think about it like
this?" I'm like, "No,
that is so true." All you need to do is
fill out a questionnaire and BetterHel
will match you with a licensed
therapist. In just a couple of days,
you'll be matched and you can also
switch your therapist at no additional
cost. Like, if you're not vibing with
them, no problem. Click the link in the

I had to leave the apartment just to get
a quick walk in and I had to pick up
some pants that I had altered at
alteration specialist. And so I'm
walking along the Highline listening to
Match Made in Manhattan podcast and I'm
very content right now. It feels lovely.
I love the sun. Okay, you guys, we are
back from our errands. The walk was
lovely. It was nice to get outside. I am
writing some thank you cards to the
staff here because they're literally
amazing. Like just now I walked in the
door and they're like, "Welcome home."
Even though they all know we're moving
on Monday. But I really appreciate them.
And normally in December, I would be
giving them their gifts. So, I'm going
to write some cards and I got some cash
of the ATM. And then we got to shower
and get ready cuz we're recording an
episode of Gals in the G. We're both
eating lunch at the same time. This is
so fun. They had a barbecue on our roof
last night, like the building. So, Ryan
saved something. Okay, we are all ready
for the podcast. I'm trying to figure
out exactly how to tie this top, but
it's from Revolve. So cute. And I'm
wearing my black Vince pants that I just
got tailored. And then some little black
flip-flop heels. I'm going to put on I
usually wait till I get to the studio to
put on my lips so it's like nice and
fresh. Earrings are electric pickics. I
love them. And yeah, I'm literally so
excited to go record this episode
because we're going to talk all about
the rebrand. And the cover is so good.
It's so good. Yeah. Let's go. Okay,
guys. Official swap. We've got our new
branding here. Oh my gosh, they look so
good. Woo.
You just remove this foam, you think,
and slide it on.
Yeah, I think this makes it universal,
maybe.
Oh,
I don't know.
Oh, you keep the phone.
Keep the foam in. Oops.
It has a slot for
Yeah, it's just It's just small. But
maybe we expand it. Oh, yeah. Well, this
one has foam, but it's like
Yeah, that's bigger. Let's see. I had
this I had this concern.
Yeah.
Well, it's cuz of this. What? LOL.
Can I see the Hop one? Let's see what
size it does.
JK.
I'm like,
wait, look at our TV, though. It's so
cute. New logo. Who this?
Such a vibe.
[Music]

[Music]
Dinner is done. Kitchen is clean. Ryan's
watching a little Ted Lasso. Delaney is
in route. I forgot if I said this or
not, but I have this new fixation. Well,
if you listen to the podcast, you know I
have this new fixation with Jaws. Ryan
and I watched the first Jaws movie, like
the most iconic one on the plane ride
back from Jamaica like a month ago and I
didn't realize like how good of a
storyline it was and I told Delaney and
she was like, "Wait, Danielle, that's my
fifth favorite movie." I was like,
"First of all, you have rankings. What?"
And second of all, oh my gosh, this is
like our new bonding thing. So, she's
been sending me little Jaws fun facts
and stuff like that. And she was like,
"We should watch all the Jaws movies."
And I was like, "Well, you should come
over Friday night and we can watch Jaws
2 with Ryan and you can say goodbye to
this apartment." And she was like,
"Perfect. Done." Ryan and I had toyed
with the idea of having like a little
party tonight and like having people
over, but oh my gosh, thank god we
didn't because I'm just not in the mood.
I'm not in the mood to drink. I'm not in
the mood to go out. Like not in the mood
tonight. And like I would be stressed
like trying to make it clean for people
even though Ryan's stuff is everywhere
of course which is like fine. But it's
just like it's fine. We don't have to
having a going away party. I've lived
here for a year. We can have a welcome
party when we move to our next spot
which I like the idea of. So Dely's in
route. We're going to watch Jaws 2 and
I'm in my cozy clothes. I'm playing the
Jaws soundtrack for Delan's arrival.
We've got it queued up. I'm nervous. Is
it going to be good? All right. Delaney
brought some snack snack maps. snack
wraps for them to try.
First time having a smoothie. So, it's
like chicken, lettuce, cheese, and
ranch.
Oh my god,
it's exciting. Cheers.
Cheers. I heard there was ranch in them,
so I don't know if I'm going to partake,
but good. Worth like the hype.
Yeah.
There you go.
I mean, I don't know,
guys. This is my face the whole movie.
I'm just like,
you just know when a shark's about to
come. What's that? Oh, that's their Oh
no, it's getting stunk on the rock. No,
bad things keep happening.
No, it's not the body.
Good morning. Ryan went to go get us
bagels and I'm going to make some
coffee. I'm in a great mood because I
just played Manchild by Sabrina
Carpenter and danced all around my
apartment. He was like, "Wo like, yeah,
I got to start my day right." I had to
take a probiotic. Today is amazing
because today is a Saturday, which means
we move on Monday. That's not the
amazing part. I woke up kind of sad and
I was like, "Ryan, can you make me feel
better?" And he was like listing off all
the amazing things about like our new
place that we're moving to next month.
Like I needed that. But we are hair up
getting in here because for example,
yes, we're having someone pack for us.
Roadway Moving is amazing. But like I
don't want them to open this drawer and
have to pack all this. Like I want to go
through each and every drawer and
crevice of this apartment so that only
the good stuff comes. which I feel like
I've already said, but like today is
happening because I was distracted by
work things this week, but people aren't
emailing on the weekends. Nothing is due
on the weekends. So, I am focusing on
this and I won't feel like bad about it.
I won't feel like I have to be doing
something else. So, that's what's
happening. Do have plans tonight, which
will be nice to like look forward to.
Got a couple birthday parties tonight. A
little nice girls dinner. Very excited.
And then we'll be doing all this again
tomorrow. So, I'm going to take you guys
along. Okay, coffee is made. I've
decided, which definitely makes most
sense. I'm going to go room by room. So,
since I'm in the kitchen, we're just
going to do the kitchen. I'm just going
to open up all the cabinets. And we're
just going to make sure that anything in
here I want to come with, which I know I
don't like. I have like a ton of like
half or basically empty boxes of tea.
Oh, I have Clara's candle. I need to
finish this. I'm going to finish this
today so that I can use it as a cup.
This is Clara Pur's candle. Sunday
reset. I just have a little bit left.
You can kind of treat today as a Sunday
reset. So pretty. And then the goal is
of that you can then have it as a cup
once it's done. So I'm just going to go
through all this. But also like I have
to think I I have a ton of like curig
cups and we're going to bring I have a
little mini curig. We're going to bring
that to our Airbnb. So I need to bring
the curig cups there. So I don't want to
spend a ton of extra money on things if
I have the things. And I forget if
roadway moving like I know they don't
pack your fridge but I feel like they do
pack like dry goods and a lot of this I
can bring to the Airbnb. Ah okay. Let's
get to work.
Okay, this may still look chaotic, but
to me, this is a lot better and only the
things that I want to bring. Believe it
or not, kitchen is done. That didn't
take as long as I thought. Tomorrow
night/ uh Monday morning, we'll pack up
any food we want to bring to the Airbnb.
But it's good. Okay, we've got the coat
closet up in here and I got to go
through it. Like, this is all stuff. I
wonder if this would fit. I'm hoping
this will fit on the back of the closet
door that we're going to have in the
hallway. Like a coat closet. I'm really
hoping because
I like this a lot. It's so nice for
stuff like this on the back of the I'll
figure I'm going to keep this. But I
want to make sure all of these coats are
coats that I'd like to bring. And then
what I really need to do, which I'm
going to do, I don't want to do, but I'm
going to do. I have all these awesomely
organized bins up there of, you know,
ear muffs and random things. And my rule
is going to be if I did not use any of
these items in the last winter or fall,
it's not coming with me cuz I didn't use
it last year. It's not it's not
happening because these are really tall
ceilings and so it like adds more
storage up there and I just don't think
that's our Christmas tree. And then I
also am going to tackle this after which
is up there which is fairly organized
but again I only want to bring things
that I really want. So let's get to work
people. I just found the mother lode. I
have a whole bin I found a whole bin of
bucket hats like for the beach. It's
summer right now so we're going to try
them on and decide which ones I'm
keeping. Oh, I've had this one forever
except there's like a crease in it now,
but it's so cute. Is it the same as this
one or different? Adorable. This one's a
little bit firmer. I think this one is
from Hat Attack. This one is from
Janessa Leon. I'm going to keep that
one. This is also Hat Attack in black.
I'm going to keep this one. I'm just
going to bring this all to the
Hampton's. Why not? Okay, this Oh, I
feel like I recently bought thisish from
UniLow. Yeah, I think I literally bought
this this last year and I don't know why
because No, that is not the vibe. Sporty
and Rich. I bought this last summer.
We'll bring it. Oh my gosh, I had an
obsession with these. These lack of
color ones. I bought so many colors and
I don't think I ever wore this. Oh my
gosh, this reminds me of a specific time
in my life. This green one. Oh, that
needs to get cleaned. This one I
remember I wore in Miami for like Fourth
of July weekend when I went with
Delaney. So cute. Literally the same one
in orange. I couldn't be stopped. I just
loved this lack of color hat so much. I
forget like which way that pocket's
supposed to go, but like so cute. Oh, I
had an era of like wearing these because
like they're very efficient. I mean,
maybe I'll bring this to the Hampton's.
These are nice because you can lay on a
chair, but you still have the coverage
in the front. Honestly, this one is this
one's really effective. I mean,
obviously have to keep this one. I don't
think this is real though, you guys. A
brand sent it to me and I think it's so
cute but like I basically for sure it's
not real. Same lack of color hat in
brown. Never worn. I don't know why
because it's so stinking cute. Almost to
the end, you guys. This one my manager
got me bringing this to the Hamptons.
It's Jacqu Moose. I remember being like,
"Oh my gosh, this is so fancy. This is
so fancy." Do you guys like when I do
that or is that No, I like it. And then
last but not least, oh this is when I
was a tennis or a golfer for Halloween
one year and Ryan was the caddy. So I
feel like I need to keep this for future
costumes. And I mean it's cute if I
decide to pick up pickle ball. So all
right, I'm going to donate like half of
those. Thanks for trying them on with
me. Ball the bangles are on. I thought
let's just get make it an extra workout.
So when I'm raising my hands to do
things like I'm getting a little workout
in. Guys, I have so much stuff. Like
what? There was so much stuff hiding
back up there behind the laundry. This
is really overwhelming, but I'm so proud
of myself for doing this because then
when we move, I'm just going to put
everything away right where they need to
go and I'm not going to be like, "Oh my
gosh, I don't need this." You know,
like, is that a bug? Oh my god, it's a
bug. I don't know what it is. Oh my god.
What if it is? Oh my god. Oh my god. I
don't know what that was. Doing a load
of like some of my robes and towels and
stuff like that so that when we pack
them, they're clean and fresh. And it's
looking a lot better up there now. It's
like, oh, this feels so good. It's such
a daunting task, but it's so freaking
worth it. So, I'm really happy. And
these are a couple like on the emptier
side bins that I'm keeping out just in
case I want to put something else. But
I'm just going to let that go on for
now. I think I recently cleaned out my
coats because I didn't give any away.
Um, I'll close this for now. Things are
on the up and up. I did this last week.
I went through this whole thing and now
it's just everything that I'd want to
bring, which is good. I have so many
like tote bags and cosmetics bags
though, so I have to figure out how I
want to like organize them. I guess
they'll just pack them. And these are
all bags that I love and I want to keep.
That's all Brian's stuff. Have this
entry table thing. And I emptied it out
cuz I know that the movers are going to.
So, and I just they always wrap
everything so beautifully, which is
lovely. But I had like this was like my
purse packing area and like my
stationary and stuff was in here. And
then obviously I have my purse bowl
which is still purse bowling. We are
going to bring this to the next spot
because there's like an entry area. But
everything from these drawers I put in
these little packing cubes here. So
perfect. Now I need to go through these
shoes. Okay guys, it's really starting
to become a packing mess in here. But
you got to have a mess to have clean.
That's just it has to go that way.
pulling stuff that I want to bring to
the Airbnb slash the Hampton slash my
other travels that I have in the next
few weeks and just like being in the
city recording the podcast like just
things I would want to wear. So, it's
going to be a lot of dresses honestly
cuz that's like easier. These are all
just the sweat sets I want to bring
which I definitely need to minimize cuz
it's literally New York in the summer.
But I've been loving cozying up in sweat
sets. And then I want to bring all this
to the Airbnb as well. Oh, and I was
going to just do these three suitcases,
but I don't know if that's going to do.
I forgot to vlog. It's been hours, but
Delaney, Mason, and Alex came over just
now. I started to text them cuz my
donations were piling up, and I was
like, "Girls, there's some good stuff in
here. You need to come over ASAP." So,
they came over ASAP. They literally ran.
They brought bags. Perfect. And they got
some good stuff. So, I'm happy. I got
these big old moving bags off Amazon.
So, I'm like deciding. And so I want to
bring my suitcases to the Airbnb because
I need the suitcases for the Hamptons
and for like the wedding and and who
knows, maybe I get invited on something
and I you know, you never know. So this
is just everything I want to bring and
then I'll pack it all tomorrow. But I
want to put a bulk of my clothes in the
suitcases and then anything extra I'll
bring to the moving in the moving bags.
But it's a one bed Airbnb and Ryan's
also bringing bags. So we just we don't
want to have bags everywhere. Guys, it
looks so different now. I'm getting
ready so quickly because the day has
gone away. I've been doing so much and I
like can't believe I only have one more
day that I can get all this stuff done.
But I think today was like the cleanout
day. Tomorrow is like packing like
packing for the Airbnb and like actually
folding the clothes and all that. I
mean, that's not it, but it's enough.
Then off to the villa.
Then off to the villa. Ryan's been
watching Love Island with me. Wait,
Ryan, come here. Do the impression of
when they get excit like if they find
out they're doing a challenge or
something like, "Okay, guys. So, today
we're going to do the challenge."
Everyone just gets so excited. It's
like, "Yes, yes.
Yes." It's like the most mundane thing
and they're so excited. It's the
funniest thing. Oh, and then he also
thought it was funny that last night was
like the family like where the families
came and
Yeah. It's like they're coming home from
war, but they were in a luxury resort
for a month.
Parents are like, "I'm so proud of you."
It is true. It's like I mean I mean it
is impressive that you know you go on a
show like that.
No, it's not.
Comment down below if any of your
boyfriends feel the same way. He gets
into it like a little bit. Like a little
bit. But tomorrow night's the last
episode and I was going to have the guy
come take the TV down today and we were
like, "No, let's enjoy the TV a few more
days and after the movers come, I'll
have him come and like fill in the holes
and stuff." So crazy stuff. But tonight
is we have two birthday parties. One is
Ryan's sister. I actually gave her a
couple dresses to wear. I was like, "You
need these." And they will look so cute
for your birthday. So I'm really excited
to see which dress she wears. I forget
where. It's at a bar in like East
Village. Lower said something about a
goat is in the name of the bar. And then
we also have a birthday party for my
friend Meline from Georgia. We're in the
same sority and hers is at Broken Shaker
rooftop which is in Nomad. Um I think
I've been there before and I think it's
really cool. So and a ton of our friends
from college will be at that too. So big
social night. Um, before that, I'm
meeting Delaney and Alex at for like a
girly ketchup dinner cuz like, yeah,
they came over earlier, but like I was
doing things at the same time and we
were just coexisting as they went
through the donations. But, um, we're
going to dinner at this place called
Casino. It's Italian and Lower East
Side. I'm really excited. I love Italian
and I love just like a Saturday night
girls night or Friday night, whatever it
is. Tonight's Saturday night. So, this
is what I'm wearing. I'm obsessed with
it. I'm loving Halters right now. This
is from literally Kohl's. So cute. And
then this skirt is from Superdown off of
Revolve. I always have it linked on my
LTK, but it's adorbs. So, I'm going to
keep getting ready cuz I have to get
ready really fast. But that's the lowown
of the night. Here's the final look.
Added little flip-flop heels, earrings,
or ALV jewels. How cute. You want to
come show your outfit? I like it. So
cute.
Brown shirt, black pants.
Oh, and you shaved. Freshly shaved.
Right.
[Music]
Oh my god, I'm obsessed. Cheers, girl.
A
delicioso
summer in New York. Everyone's eating
outside. I love it. Oh, it's
Time Square, baby.
Guys, the weather tonight is amazing.
Talk to you.
We were saying is the weather it's 76°
outside. It's not humid. We're not like
breaking a sweat. We're outside. Like
we'd be unstoppable if it was like this
all year round.
76.
76. So nice. We're headed to the first
bar for the first party. Have fun. Happy
birthday.
[Applause]
Good morning, guys. It's Sunday morning
and I'm not going to lie, I woke up with
a literal pit in my stomach just because
we're moving tomorrow and you guys just
know how dramatic I am. Like when I
moved from my first apartment, I was the
same way. I was just so upset, but so
excited all at the same time. Ryan and I
are going to start the day by going to
get coffee from our favorite coffee shop
that's nearby. And I also want to get a
bagel again. We got bagels yesterday.
And get to work on things that need to
be done. Last night was fun. And I
definitely, you know, I knew drinking
last night wasn't going to be the best
for today, but also like somewhere in
the city and I wanted to live my life
and be with my friends. So, I put on my
favorite little outfit that I've been
wearing recently in hopes that it'll put
me in a better mood and make me even
more productive. A girl can only hope.
But I'm going to make sure today's a
good day and just enjoy this last day
rather than like continue to sulk and be
sad because I am sad. I'm not. And I'm
sad because, okay, one, I'm so excited
to live with Ryan, but I'm already
living with him, living with me here at
my favorite place. I think it'd be
easier if like we were moving straight
to like our new place, which I'm so
excited, but that's not for another
month. So, it's just feeling a little
bit more distant. But, okay, let's get
the day started.
[Music]
We have updates, people. Okay, so I
cleared out I forgot if I showed this
already, both of the medicine cabinets
for the most part. So, feeling good
about that. and just I'm putting things
in bags rather than like just having all
my products out in the open so that
they're not wrapping each individual
thing, which I know they would cuz
they're amazing, but like I just don't
need that. That's the donations I still
need to donate. Um these are all like my
hair ties and scrunchies and stuff like
that that um I just figured I'd put in a
zip up bag like this instead of them
like again like wrapping and all or
whatever. And then I have a ton of all
like my products that I had left over
here in that backpack. And then I also
obviously have stuff in there that they
they will need to pack. Um, which maybe
I'll open it one more time. Ryan still
needs to when we move we're going to fix
this door cuz I literally have to use an
Allen wrench to open every time cuz we
got to the bottom of it. We weren't
given the right piece that like opens
it. You're supposed to like push to
open. But he knows of a piece of
something that we can buy at Ace
Hardware to like open it to put I don't
know. That's his job. That's a blue job.
Cleared this out obviously. cleared this
out. I'm going to let them pack like my
leftover hair tools and my leftover hair
products cuz some things I took with me
to for the month obviously. So, looking
good in here. I cleared out my shower
except for like the few products I want
to use cuz I'm going to probably take
one or two more showers. Um I'm doing
one last load of laundry and there might
be workout clothes in there. So, I'm
packing all of my workout clothes and
like that vibe pajamas and stuff in my
smallest carry-on. Ryan's got packing to
do. I want to wash our sheets and
comforter, which I guess I'll do
tomorrow. Um, so that when we put them
in the boxes, they'll be like very
clean. Uh, oh, I like went through my
dresser drawers and like I packed my own
underwear and socks, you know, like they
can they don't need to touch all that. I
don't need them to do that. Um, but I'm
going to let them pack these. Maybe I'll
just put this random assortment of
things in this packing cube. Been
utilizing a lot of packing cubes and
then I'm going to let them pack that. Of
course, closet officially have pulled
all of my clothes that I want to have
with me for the next month and all my
shoes and bags, jewelry, and bathing
suits. I took anything that I want. The
rest will be in storage, which is so
stressful. But again, it's nice that
it's in the summer. Like, seriously,
pretty easy in the sense that I just
need like dresses and stuff. What else?
Oh, I got this suitcase folded. This is
coming to the Airbnb. Everything is in
here folded. I'm just leaving this open
in case anything that I'm washing and
drying right now, I want to put in
there. I've got my shoes I want to bring
for the next month. Yeah, I know there's
a lot of shoes. All my toiletries are in
there. And then my undergarments I want
to bring with. And then these are like
bags and hats and jewelry that I want to
bring for the next month. So, yeah. And
then this is my big old bag of like like
this is my purse basically, but just a
little bit bigger. I'll put my computer
in here. like this is my my personal
item for the day. And yeah, we're making
really good progress. We're we just
finished doing a load of this. We're
going to unload these and then reload
anything so that all dishes are clean.
Um we're going to go through the food
later. I'm air drying a couple things.
I I feel like I Yeah, I showed you guys
yesterday that I emptied these out. So,
starting to feel good. I woke up with a
pit in my stomach, super stressed, but
it's coming along. finished writing all
the letters to my dorman. We're trying
to clean out the fridge. And I have some
tomatoes and cucumbers that I cut up
left. So, I'm going to make a little
tomato cucumber salad. One of my
favorites. And I've got a little bit of
breaded chicken left in the freezer as
well. And then for dinner, I have
meatballs in the fridge or in the
freezer. So, we can make those. We're
just going to try and use it all up. And
then anything we don't use, we can also
take to the Airbnb. But, I'm going to
make my favorite little salad. came down
to get one last sauna in because I'm not
going to have a sauna in my next
building and I want to enjoy it one more
time.
[Music]
We're about to hit 30 minutes. I usually
do 20 to 30 minutes and the days I do
30, it's a good day. Oh, we are
sweating. It feels so good to sweat and
just be in the heat. I don't know. I
just I love this. My last time in the
sauna. I'm so dramatic. I know. It's
like my last this, my last that. Jaws
obsession continues. We are now watching
the Jaws 50-year anniversary documentary
on Disney Plus because we're obsessed.
Things are in so much so much better of
shape. Like, I'm feeling so good now.
Also, it's such a vibe in here. Sweet
girl. Sweet girl. Um, we're starting to
put things over there that we don't want
the movers to touch that we're taking to
the Airbnb. doing last load of laundry.
I literally showered and put on this
robe so I didn't dirty a towel. I'm just
going to like fluff this up in the dryer
before we fold it and put it away. But
it is just about 8:30 and I'm going to
check to see if the Love Island finale
is on Disney or is on Peacock. And
that's like the best reward for getting
everything done before 8:30. I thought I
thought I was going to be up till 3:00
a.m. tonight. I don't know why I'm so
dramatic. Like I get [ __ ] done and I
have to remind myself of that. Feeling
better. I just got the only thing we
really have to do now is clean out the
fridge and clean out the pantry. That's
really it. Been sitting here waiting for
it to upload and it just uploaded. It's
2 hours long, you guys. It's normally
like an hour, an hour 15. Great. So,
it'll be good. I just paused it cuz
she's about to say the couple in fourth
place.
Yes.
I think it's going to be Oh, I don't
know. I think it might be Huda and
Chris.
Iris and Pepe.
Oh, wow.
Congratulations.
Oh my god. Iris and Pepe. Yeah.
How are you guys feeling? I feel um
honored to be here and have this.
How are you feeling? Like they lost. Oh
my god, Huda and Crystal. They decided
to become friends.
You guys have been incredible. Thank you
so much. Go grab a glass of champagne
and celebrate.
Oh my god. Okay, we're down to Amaya and
Brian and Nick and Alandria. I was
voting for Iris and Pepe and then this
last round I voted for Amaya and Brian.
So, I'm really hoping that they win
because they're just clearly so happy
and obsessed with each other and I'll be
happy for either, but like I'm team
Amaya and Brian.
So, Alandria and Vic,
I'm going to miss this show. I'm sad.
America has chosen you as the final two
couples. How are you guys feeling?
All right, here we go. Ryan,
the winners of Love Island USA 2025.
Am I Brian? Oh my god. Just say it. Who
do you think is going to be
them? Nicoland. He thinks Nicolandra. I
think Amaya and Brian and Brian.
A I'm so happy for them. She has the
best reactions ever.
Amaya.
We have done all that we can do for the
night. We've got Ted Lasso on and it is
time for bed. Feeling emotional. Ryan
and I just sat and did like I made him
do like a service for this apartment.
And I was like, "So, what are your
favorite memories here?" But we were
like looking at our Airbnb again and
like the listing and got really excited
cuz there's like a private balcony. What
else? There's like a cool built-in desk.
It's like a loft style in Seapport or in
like Financial District. So, I think
it's going to be really fun and I'm
excited to have like our space together
even though it's going to be hectic and
we're going to have a lot of bags. I'm
It did get me excited. So, yeah. I'm
going to get ready for bed, but I love
you guys. They'll see you in the
morning. Move day. Good morning
everybody. It's move day. It's freaky. I
was like putting up the blinds and I
look outside and I see this huge truck.
I'm like, let me just see. It is
roadway. They must get here like super
early in the morning to their
destination so that they get a parking
spot out front. I don't know. It's the
only thing I could think of. I kept a
couple products out so I could use them
this morning and then I'm going to put
them away. This is the calm before the
storm. Seriously, like there about to be
probably six or seven people in here.
Roadway's the best. Seriously, they're
amazing. Ryan went down to the gym. Good
for him. He was like, I'm going to do a
workout here. I was like, one last
workout. You know, man, I'm so dramatic.
And I'm about to go meet him in the
lobby. And we really enjoyed our morning
yesterday of going to Urbana to get
coffee and then get breakfast of some
sort. So, we're going to do the same
thing this morning cuz I think that
sounds nice. So, I'm about to meet him
in the lobby to get breakfast and coffee
and start our day off, right? I just did
um some dancing. You guys know I love
dancing to Manchild by Sabrina
Carpenter. This is my little move day
outfit. I wanted to feel cute. I wanted
to feel cute. So, going to miss it here.
But the thing is like I'm literally
taking all of this stuff to our new
place. Well, it's going in storage and
then to our new place. and it's going to
have the same vibe naturally because
it's like basically all the same
furniture. So, I have to remind myself
of that. Yeah, I'm feeling good. Really
honestly just excited to get in that
Airbnb and do life with Ryan for the
next month and just like have our own
spot together. It's going to be fun. I'm
really excited. Our Airbnb host seems
really cool, too. She's like in
Australia right now, but she's like,
"You already have three packages." I'm
like, "What? How?" Like, literally how?
Sorry about that. All right, I think
it's time to go meet Ryan downstairs,
but let's go.
[Music]
Ryan and I have our workstation set up.
They will be here in about 15 minutes.
Feeling ready. Feeling like everything
now is ready for them to come in and
start packing and taking things to the
truck. This is everything that Ryan and
I are taking to the Airbnb. Honestly,
it's the right amount. I'm just
wondering if we'll make it. I mean, we
can definitely fit it all in one car,
but it's like No, we definitely should.
We definitely should. I'm just waiting
for this. This has been drying all night
cuz I was wearing this yesterday and it
got all super dirty, so I washed and
it's like I don't want to dry it in the
dryer cuz I don't want it to shrink. But
yeah, I'm just going to zip that up. But
yeah, I'm just going to tell them to
avoid this general area. That's Ryan's
uh pool stick over there. He's got a
case for it and everything. But yeah,
this is like a bag of stuff that we're
going to bring for the kitchen and all
that. It's happening. The blue carpet
has been rolled out. They're just so
good at what they do. I hear them
preparing the boxes out there. This is
Ryan and I's little area. Goodbye to
Hotel Danielle as you know it. Hotel
Danielle and Ryan coming soon.
[Music]
You guys, it's empty. And just like
that, got my whole setup. It's honestly
a vibe. It's like a little rainy out
right now. I went and got another
coffee. I've gotten so much work done.
It's quite lovely. The only thing we
kept the wireless router so we could
work from here today. But yeah, this is
so weird. It feels like just yesterday I
was filming like our empty apartment
tour. This is all the stuff that we're
taking. Um, pretty crazy. I'm probably
going to miss most these heated floors.
They're so warm and cozy. I have a call
at 6:00. So, um, I'm going to take it
here and then we're going to go to the
Airbnb and I'm getting really excited to
go see the Airbnb. I was just saying
some goodbyes to some of the dormant
here and giving them their thank you
cards. I just finished my phone call.
Ryan's on his way back. He went to the
Airbnb to bring the first round of bags.
He said it's awesome. It's really great.
So, I'm really happy about that. I'm
excited to see it, but I'm just having a
moment to myself to say goodbye to old
girl. My last apartment living alone.
Hotel Danielle. No more Hotel Danielle
and Ryan. I'm very excited. Anyways,
going to leave the keys right here just
like they asked. Everything is all set.
I can't wait to show you guys our new
apartment in about a month. I'm very
excited about that. And my next vlog,
I'll do a Airbnb tour, show you our
thought for the next month. And I'm just
so grateful to you guys for constantly
being so supportive and being here for
the journey. And I can't wait for this
next chapter with Ryan. You guys are
going to just love it all. And I'm
really excited, too. So, I love you
guys, and I'll see you in the next
video. Bye.
