šš½ Hello There
I woke up yesterday morning in a different country that was sunny and warm. Now, as I wrap up this newsletter, Iām back in a very gray LA. š«
Weirdly enough, time wise to me this month is basically over and I mean that in a good way. I just got back from Mexico City and now I have a few other things happening and then BAM! itās the last week of May and that following Monday is June. And then Iām already in July/August because of other things.
At the same time, Iām blessed and highly grateful for the things coming my way but Iād like these months to be a lil longer and the work week go down to 4 days a week to savor weekends a bit more in the best ways possible.
I have to do a quick rant because I have to get this off my chest lol. I need people to stop acting they loveee matcha!! Go drink dirty chaiās instead, those are great too. Itās so hard to find good/great quality matcha powder, that Iām one moment away from just booking a weekend trip to go buy some and return to my favorite sushi place in Osaka (Shinchi Sushi Yujiro) and Takayama in Kyoto. You think Iām joking, I mostly am but this is an emergency (itās not Iām being dramatic). Also, just a reminder you donāt need ceremonial grade matcha for your latte.
P.S. if anyone is going to Tokyo soon, please pick me up two of these. Thank you!!

After a couple of conversations, I now know that many of you may not realize that the email subject lines are song lyrics and if you scroll to the bottom youāll see what song. This part has moved to the top of the newsletter now
Wise words I heard on TikTok from Adamhartshug ā if it doesnāt pay you donāt let it stress you and if it pays and stresses you ask for more money š

  Songs Iām Enjoying ILYSMIH by Kali Uchis ā Happy to see her releasing new music and the part at the end had me like š„¹ so cuteee WASSUP by Young Miko ā This song has a sample of a Lil Jon song and she more swag than some of your favorite rappers. Reminds me of Young Ma, and I love her songs because she raps fast but melodic enough for me to practice my Spanish when Iām singing along Peacefield by Ghost - 80s rock a la Top Gun for that ābig momentā or when you are training for a comeback to demolish your enemy šš V.I.S. by Portugal. The Main - This song to me is falls into the caterogy of very Nirvana-esq chill angsty rock type of music No Secrets by Jessie J and On Sight by Coco Jones ā Both of these songs remind me of the music made by women in the late 90s/early 2000s in R&B |   Tijuanita from Tacos de Valle š¤¤ Mexico City, MX

  NiƱa con tarta de cerezas by Ćngel ZĆ”rraga at Museo Soumaya Museo Jumex is founded by Eugenio LĆ³pez Alonso is a contemporary museum. This museum has rotating exhibits within its space. Museo Soumaya is founded by Carlos Slim and named after his late wife. It is jam packed with over 60,000 pieces of art available to be viewed from Mexican and European artists plus so much more. Museo Jumex and Soumaya are extremely short walking distance of each other. I spent about 2 Ā½ hours at Museo Soumaya and 45 minutes at Museo Jumex.

Mexico City, MX - El Bazar SĆ”bado Movies Sinners (In Theaters) - 10/10 and no need to say more than this The Accountant 2 (In Theaters) - We all know I love a popcorn movie and this is definitely is one. The chemistry between Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal is great as brothers and they bring a great balance to each other. There are funny moments when you do and donāt expect them Staying In Black Mirror (Netflix) - If you havenāt watched Black Mirror every episode is different mainly dark and dystopian themes along with being spot on in certain circumstances regarding society. Also, skip episode 1 of the first season, please listen to me on this one. Otherwise I do find the show intriguing. Some of my favorite episodes are: Nosedive, The Waldo Moment, Hang the DJ, Black Museum, and Loch Henry |
