Hey guys! Happy August 12th. It is currently 7.45 a.m. and we should probably go down like really really soon for attendance. I vlogged my whole sorority recruitment on the outside, so while I was a P&M I vlogged like everything. I just had pretty much like a mini diary and like how I felt, what happened every day. So I kind of wanted to do the same thing, but put a little twist on it. So now I am inside of sorority. I'm a capital at UCF, so I'm going to be doing a little diary of what it's like on the inside and hopefully I can give you guys some helpful tips. If you guys are recruiting on the inside and like makeup, like just like conversations, like anything like that. I actually asked you guys to ask me questions about this topic. So I have some questions that I'll be answering throughout the week. So hopefully this vlog will be a little bit more helpful than my other vlogs. Today is UCF day one and tomorrow is UCF day two, so we wear the same outfits. Everyone's going to be wearing their sorority letters on a gray asphalt t-shirt, I think. And then our chapter is wearing white jeans, skirts, and brown sandals. When you go through recruitment on the inside, we all like to look uniformed. So every chapter picks what they're going to wear and so not every chapter is the same. So I'll also be showing you guys my outfits throughout the week and I got some really cute stuff, so I'm really excited to show you guys. Basically on UCF day one, the conversations are really really basic. So it's basically like, oh, would you do this summer? Kind of get to know them for 15 minutes, I think. It's a really short amount of time. It's pretty much a first impression for us as recruiters and also the PNM and their first impressions of every chapter. So I feel like today is a pretty important day just because first impressions mean a lot, at least to me. But obviously if you are going through recruitment, if you're watching this as a PNM please keep an open mind because it is so important. It's gonna like make your recruitment experience so much better. Honestly, I think this vlog is just gonna be a lot of me talking in my room. So hopefully I can get some clips outside, but obviously I'm going to be doing parties. So I'm not gonna be having my phone during parties, but I will try to update you guys as much as possible. Alright, so we are on lunch break. It is currently 12.40 and I didn't wear my Apple watch this whole time. So like I had no sense of time. Like I thought it was like going by so fast. I thought it was like 10 in the morning or something and I was like damn this is really early to get out for lunch, but I don't know. I feel like parties really go fast. So on UCFJ one and two, usually like seniors announce every day like, hi, I'm Sonali, like welcome to Capagalta. So I'm one of the announcers for UCFJ and yeah, I like totally forgot. So I was like freaking out at the last minute and literally was so nervous the first party. Like I was like holding and squeezing Caleb's hand. I was like, oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god.  Like I'm a senior. I've done it for like two years now and this is my third and I'm still getting so nervous. Like I know how it works and I still get really nervous. So you're always gonna be really nervous for your first party. But after that you'll really get a feel for everything and hopefully you won't be as nervous as the first party. I'm sorry, I'm talking with the knife, but I'm like heating up my microwave to like frozen food right now.  So I knew I probably wouldn't want to go to the grocery store. I'd probably be really tired. And also I got up at like 5 30 a.m. today and I know all my friends think I'm like literally insane because they all woke up at like 6 40, but I didn't want to rush. So I had time to like just chill and like do my thing. So it was really nice that I woke up early, although I'm like super freaking tired right now. Like I was like falling asleep when I was just like sitting in a chair. But I'm gonna go see if my frozen food is done. I brought in some of my sister's to ask the first question. Were you guys more nervous as a PNM or a sister? Oh, I don't know. Now I'm... I feel like since we're announcing I'm definitely more nervous. Oh really? I'm not. I feel like I was more nervous as a PNM. Me too. I was more nervous as a PNM, but then I was really really really really nervous my first year on the inside. Yeah. But like now I'm not nervous. But I feel like it was pretty equal. Yeah. So we just had our last party and guess who changed into super comfy clothes? Me and Katelyn. We're gonna answer one more thing. Let's see. Okay, what makes a PNM stand out the most in a positive way? So me and Katelyn were talking about this and we think that just like showing what's unique to you. Like you explain it, you explain it better Katelyn. Just like if you emphasize the things that you care about the most that's gonna set you apart because if you seem passionate about something people are gonna remember that. Yeah, so that's pretty much all for today. Tomorrow is another UCF day, so we'll be wearing the same outfit. And yeah, we'll see you guys tomorrow. Are they for my clothes? So that is a wrap on UCF day two. Two, not four. We only had six parties instead of eight like yesterday, so that was nice. And no rain? Yes. No rain. Oh my god, the rain was so close, but then I was like literally watching it go by so fast. And I was like Katelyn, there's blue because when it rains we have to do a rain entrance and exit and that means basically the PNMs just like chill in the house. So basically that just like elongates our day because they can't go on to the next house if it's raining obviously. Sign up for sorority recruitment next year. Yeah, if you guys are thinking about it, like okay, let's all say like one pro about joining sorority. For me, I'm an out-of-state student, so it was really important for me to have like that family like I had in my cheer team. Like I made friends immediately from that, so I knew I could make friends immediately from a sorority. I think for me, it's probably just kind of getting my foot in the door in like any way that I can so like being president is obviously just a great experience. I think it's great people experience and also it's great professional experience too because you know, I'm managing basically 170 something girls. Like you don't think about it that way, but it really is like a very big everyday job. Yeah, I mean just kind of going off of that. I think that it's a very unique situation being in Greek life. The like balance between leadership opportunities that you can have and also mixing it with like those social elements that are just fun because you're in college. But so I think that it really prepares you. Another thing is I have two little sisters, so we're all seniors and going into our last year. It's been a great opportunity for me to be a role model to a lot of younger girls, especially through recruitment. These younger girls are like literally looking up to us because we're standing on benches and they're literally looking at us and following us each week and following in our footsteps. So it's cool to be able to take that older sister experience I've gotten all through my life and apply it to like a big group of girls. Okay, well we are gonna have a little photo shoot just because when you get this pretty, when you wake up at 5.30 a.m. That's just an all the way to 5.30 a.m. 6.40, 6.50, we're here. Like I said yesterday, I just don't like to rush, so I mean it. Some people can do their makeup in 10 minutes, but your girl can't so I gotta wake up in 5.30. So anyways, we're gonna take pictures. We're gonna make use out of this makeup. You'll see them on this stuff? Yeah. Hey guys, happy August 14th. It is currently Tuesday and it is philanthropy day. So today we're gonna obviously be talking about our philanthropy and then also we're gonna take a tour of our house and that means like all the house girls are like literally so frantic right now. Like we're all cleaning up our rooms, which yes, we should have done it last night, but like we're just doing like finishing touches, making everything look perfect because obviously when a P&M walks into your room, you want them to be like oh my god, this is so cute. So I tried really hard last year to like have a super cute room and so this year I tried to make it even cuter and I think gallery wall really, you know, does something for this room. So I'm really pumped about the way it turned out. Shout out to my boyfriend for making like pretty much all the wood stuff that I have. Like he made like a star for me. He made like my amazing shelves, my headboard last year and just like so many things and hung all this stuff up. So thank you Ryan, you're amazing and you already know that. So today is actually my favorite day to recruit, although I'm not recruiting this year because I am a senior, but last year and the year prior to that, I loved philanthropy day because first of all, house tours are so much fun. Like you can see people's cute decor and like I'm super into that stuff. And then also there's just so much to talk about because we have like our philanthropy and you can talk a lot about like the house, like living in it or your house mom or the meal plan or the free parking, like literally anything. Not that I'm saying that you can't talk about whatever you want on the other days, but I feel like philanthropy day just has so much that you can talk about. Like it has like bullet points like because we're talking about the house and philanthropy. Does that make sense? But yeah, so this is my favorite day and I wanted to show you guys my outfit because I'm one of those girls that like never spend over like $30 on the dress or like a shirt or anything. Like I'm like, wow, that's really expensive. Like I'm not going to get that. But when it comes to recruitment, I just splurge because I don't know. I feel like it's just that one time a year that I'm like, okay, like I'm going to buy myself a 50 or $60 dress, even though I'm going to like probably only wear it one time. But this dress could honestly be worn to like a wedding, not that I'm ever going to get invited to one very soon. But I mean, maybe I'll keep it for that. So if you guys watched my what to wear first order recruitment, you have already seen this dress. It is from Princess Polly and I love it because it has so much detail like all down here and I don't know. I think it like suits me well. But only thing is that it is unfortunately strapless. So when I step clap, like, I don't know what's going to happen to my boobs, but hopefully they'll stay in place. Then for my shoes, I also showed this in my what to wear first order recruitment video. I'll link that down below. But yeah, they are just Sam Edelman's. I actually got this from a thrift store and literally probably my favorite thing I've ever gotten from a thrift store because these were like, let me say like $27. So you guys saw for UCF days, we all wore the same thing, gray t-shirts, white skirts and brown sandals. But today we start wearing like different things. So today our colors are like, what is this green? Evergreen. Evergreen and white, I think is that the two only? Okay. And then tomorrow it's going to be burgundy, blush, pink and nude. It's just kind of like a color palette. Every story like kind of chooses one. And that is maybe one con about being in recruitment on the inside.  Like obviously you can like find something in your closet, but if you don't have it, like, you know what I mean? I mean, I got this for like what? Probably like $15. It's not like you're required. I know at some other schools like you're required to buy like That exact dress. Exactly. Yes, even if it's super expensive.   But you know, a lot of people find their dresses on sale at forever 21. Mine's dress was like $5 at forever 21. So I mean, it just like depends on like what you want to do for your outfits. So we're going to answer a question that says, how do you keep your mind active and alert while meeting so many girls? I feel like that is so hard given I have like the worst memory in the world. But when I'm talking to a girl, obviously like I'm trying to like interact and I'm trying to like relate things to my life that she said. So like thinking and like remembering what she said is really hard sometimes. Also, it's loud in the room that you're talking in. So I feel like it's really important to try to like block everything out and just focus on her so that you can like hear everywhere she's saying and then like try to remember that. Yeah, and I would also say like eye contact is super important because like either if you're looking at the girl's like whole face or like just her mouth, like sometimes it helps me to look at someone's mouth and like hear them talk. Does that make sense? Like I don't know. I feel like I just hear it better. Yeah, so that is the question for this morning. We're going to go down for attendance. Start this day off and comment down below if you guys want a room tour because I really want to show you guys in this video. But I'll do a room tour if you guys want it. Hey guys, happy August 15th. It is currently 8 a.m. and this day I did not wake up late so awesome. And I filmed a get ready with me so I don't know which one's going up first but I'll try to link it down below. But today is video day. So today the PNMs come in and they get to watch the video that Sonali made that showcases their sisterhood. And so the goal today is just to let them get to see more sisters since they don't get the chance to talk to everyone. And they'll just like talk more about like sisterhood stuff like sisterhood events or like what their favorite sisterhood memory was like big little and stuff like that. So there's like a lot to talk about in that aspect. The party's a little bit longer. So you get to talk more. And then tomorrow's breath. So as Kaylin said or if you guys watched my previous vlogs you would know that I worked like throughout like last year to make the philanthropy and the sisterhood video.  The philanthropy video is already up and obviously by the time this video is up the sisterhood video will be up because I'm just like posting them like after the day is done um because I just like I'm just so excited to post. Like I have it ready and cute and stuff. But yeah so both of them will be linked down below. I'm so excited to share because I've literally been working like the whole entire year on them so. So the question of the morning is do you recommend spray tans acrylic slash extension for recruitment or is that too much? So I feel like you should just do whatever makes you most comfortable. Like I feel more comfortable when I have a tan but I'm naturally very fair. So I get a spray tan for recruitment because it just makes me feel better.  So I personally don't really love lash extensions. Right now I'm wearing the um demi-whispies and they're amazing but if you aren't used to putting on like strip lashes it's gonna be a little bit hard and recruitment is not the time to try anything new. I definitely wanted to talk about this because like if you don't want to like curl your hair then you need to like start practicing like in the middle of summer because you don't want to like feel insecure throughout the whole day.  So that's why you have to like wear whatever makes you feel comfortable because when you're comfortable you're more confident. If you want to wear lashes, wear lashes.   Yeah some people come in and they have no makeup like nothing to make themselves more glam and like we're just looking at you for like how you are and so that's like fine. Another thing I wanted to mention um because I just did an update of what to wear for sorority recruitment did you notice that a lot of people were like way casual than usual like yesterday? Yeah.   I would say more for philanthropy day keep it more casual but once you get into video day and especially preff like try to make it a little bit fancier try to wear dresses rompers. What happened my strap broke it broke oh I'm rigging it like so hard oh my god oh my god damn so I totally forgot to vlog my outfit but I actually really liked my dress today it was from a pretty little thing and I'm not really sure how much it costs but I'll try to link every outfit that I had during this week down below so you guys can like shop it if you want but I'm definitely going to add in our senior pictures right now because they turned out so cute like I don't know it was so funny because like we watched the um sisterhood video for the last time and like we I didn't even want to cry like I was trying to like look at the ground for like I'm an emotional girl like if you know me you know that I like cry if I see someone else crying so I was trying not to cry but then I looked up at every other senior and then they were bawling their eyes out so I was like damn it like and then tears started streaming so I don't know all the pnms probably thought we were crazy but it was like our last time like doing this whole like step clapping and like basically recruitment I mean tomorrow's press so that's like really the last day but it's kind of like a very different vibe um from all the other days um so there's like no step clapping it's like way more chill but I definitely want to bring my camera downstairs and maybe get some like recruitment advice for my other sisters because I feel like they always have really good points that I never think of recruitment makes us delusional so this is what video day looks like my favorite flowers the hydrangeas they're so beautiful I am right here with Kaylin so cute we went to spring break in Georgia Helen Georgia one time and that's where that was taken and this was from recruitment filming I took this picture and I took this picture and I took this picture and I took this picture and I took this picture and yeah take a lot of pics now I'm going to show you guys what recruitment looks like after recruitment Katie after hours Rumi cute cutie so cute then we have girls like Jenna so this is Diane this is like our beautiful like the most eloquent girl in the chapter when we were thinking of like who wants to talk in the video I was like Diane's perfect for confidence and like guys you literally have to check out the videos I made link down below but anyways I want her to give like some recruitment advice to p&m's and recruiters something that both like recruiters and p&m's can really use as advice going through recruitment is just to be genuine because if you're selling your sorority and like seeing all the great things that are amazing about it and you're not truthful and you're not genuine and it's not coming from your heart if the p&m falls in love with what you're saying when they get to the chapter they're going to realize that it was all false they're going to have a bad taste in their mouth for it so as long as both parties are genuine that's when people really truly find like where they actually go and for p&m's stay true to your heart like don't let reputations or like prior knowledge or anything like that get in the way of what your heart's pulling you to go if you do that you might end up in a place where you're not happy and you want to get the most out of the experience like that's what being in sorority is all about it's about growing and finding your people so you want to find your real people and that was all one take one take, Diane Wade amazing, next up is Silvana she is amazing as well everyone's amazing in my chapter and I'm really not just saying that come on hello, this is Alexa, I'm sorry I think I just slapped you in the face this is Alexa she's like the most beautiful blue eye show mom, show mom my eyelashes look bad I would say for p&m's just like I was not the sorority type at all when I went through and like recruitment was really tough for me in that aspect but when I went through I just like I said that I'm not going to go to one unless I completely fall in love with it which when I walked into Katie it was just people talking to me about like ideas and concepts and just things that I found interesting like stimulating conversations I was being myself and that's how those things came about and that's the biggest advice I could get for p&m, just don't tone yourself down I was going to say if I had any advice if they beat yourself because you can tell when girls are like faking it we're like lying straight up lying it makes it easier on us to when the girls are just completely real with us we're going to get pizza oh my god I literally have pizza grease on my face hello welcome to Katie Lighting it really is I literally have big ass windows and we call it the Katie Lighting you have to like just run like when you're ready to run like lily spirit this is so surreal I remember watching your videos I know I'm subscribed alright so we came somewhere a little bit more quiet so we can tell her intimate love story me and Lauren not so intimate not so intimate a little intimate so we were in the same rogue am group and basically like I guess there's not really that much meat in it we both want Katie and we have the cutest video and that's why I wanted to talk about it because like it's in our recruitment video for two years now because I reused it everyone loves it it gives me chills every time it's definitely a tear drinker that's probably the moment where I was crying when we were all crying up there because we really did start from the bottom yeah yeah okay so like I said I'm gonna post our glow up pictures like holy hell it's a little wild up in here but thank god for that Katie lighting thank god for that Katie glow up so my piece of recruitment advice would be to choose a house where you would see yourself growing and being a better version of yourself and not going necessarily where you would feel comfortable and you would have kind of the same experience that you had in high school with the same kind of people go somewhere where you have people that you would want to be like in the future girls that have I don't know like a lot of goals and morals and everything that you want to be like the future version of yourself basically got the chills oh my god and Lauren said she would be awkward but she's amazing more recruitment advice for you guys go Delaney wear comfortable shoes and don't wear a dress that is a little low yeah I mean honestly guys honestly guys I probably shouldn't have gotten strapless dresses this whole freaking week but my dumb ass like the first burgundy outfit I saw I was like hey bye like I was so over it because like when you're in a sorority like I said you're kind of required to get like a certain color sometimes it gets overwhelming because there's so many like shops and like you don't know what to buy and then once you find like a good okay outfit you're like okay whatever like I'm over it like I'll just buy it as you're older and just you're like I'll just wear the same one again like you don't care as much especially if you have like the same color wait link in bio and if you want to hit that thumbs up while you're down there subscribe they are not my sisters it's prep night I don't even know it's preference and I am currently doing some hair and then Tiffany wanted me to add like little baby breasts because we had like extra from the other days also is there more extra because I want them in our room yeah okay cool well I think we can take all big babies from ourselves yeah seriously this is like the day that you can really do whatever you want with your hair like most people do updo's just because it's kind of like fancier so that's what we're doing today you can put them in those like I wanted to this is the final hair turn pretty hey guys so it is 2pm I think our first prep party is at 3 and since I'm a senior I didn't really recruit at all so I'm not going to prep which is totally fine with me I was talking to one of my sisters last night and I told her that I've never prepped anyone and that's so normal I just think it's a little unrealistic to think that everyone's going to have a rush crush like personally before I came in I always saw like captions like rush crush and I never had a rush crush going into recruitment and I never had a rush crush on the inside of recruitment so I don't know and like a lot of people don't and that's like totally fine I just don't want everyone to think that that's how recruitment is because I don't want you to get upset if that doesn't happen to you so just to put it in perspective that like that's not really you know a big thing but anyway since I'm not prepping anyone I thought it would be a really great thing to have a little work day or like a preparation day because tomorrow is bid day and I'm filming the bid day video and I filmed the bid day video last year I never talked about this but I guess it's been a year and I'm kind of over by now so I was filming last year's bid day video and my friend Charlotte was a rogue gamma so I was the one that held her sign and she ran home to me and I had my camera in my hand literally like three seconds before she ran like I saw her running so I put it down and like pretty much all my friends were like behind me or like people that I knew but there were some like boys and fraternities that were like standing on the sidewalk near it so once she ran home to me maybe like a minute a minute 30 seconds later maybe two minutes at max I turned around and my camera was gone my camera my little sony camera and my stabilizer was gone somebody literally freaking stole my camera and my stabilizer and I was like so upset but I didn't even have the time to cry I didn't even have the time to like be upset because I had a duty to film this video and I wasn't gonna just stop because my camera got stolen because luckily I do have a big camera so I actually went and grabbed my big camera good thing I was living in the house and I had everything in my room so yeah I just went and grabbed it started filming everything that I could and I was overall really upset mostly because I lost my footage and not really super upset in the moment about my camera um but just because I worked so hard on the footage like before the PNMs ran home and it was gonna be so cute and yeah so all that footage was lost so I had to start so I didn't have my stabilizer so the video turned out to be like super shaky and just like not what I knew it should have been um because I like invested in a stabilizer literally for bid day and I swear I think I used that stabilizer for like maybe two times before a bid day so definitely didn't get my use out of that um and I had to buy a new Sony camera and my lens that was on it you know my bank account was hurting after I had to replenish it because I'm gonna be honest I was a little bit depressed after it got stolen just because I couldn't vlog or anything like I had my big camera yes I could film like main videos but I didn't have like my vlogging camera and honestly it's what I use on an everyday basis so the fact that I couldn't have like the ability to create content was killing me inside like it was eating me up and I literally couldn't sleep I went to bed thinking about it every single night and so I was just like you know what I need to like just replenish it and like buy it for me because it made me happy like literally having a camera in my hand makes me genuinely happy right now the first thing I'm gonna do I did this last year is I'm gonna like mix some songs together because I always think that it's so important to have a song that no one really knows or like something super super new that no one's like gonna really use my worst fear is that another chapter has the same song in their video so I really don't want that to happen so I'm probably gonna mix like a couple songs and do it in garage band so that's step one like finding music is so important because without the music you can't really start editing it to the beat like yes you can chop up the clips and like see what you have to work with but other than that you can't really go anywhere without music so gotta get the music down first and then I'm also gonna prepare some images at the end I think I'm gonna like put in pictures and I'm also gonna watch just like a couple bid day videos just to get like some shots in mind you know filming anything really like let's say it's bid day I want a drone footage of the house drone footage of my sisters in front of the house and we have a guy that's coming with his drone his name is Danny K he's in CBT and he always takes our pictures he's really great and he just got a drone so good news for me and my video see what else and then shots of like putting glitter on people I mean some of it's cliche but also you just gotta get it because it's bid day and it's just something that should be in a bid day video so I usually just make note of like shots like it's called a shot list I'm pretty sure and I just make a note of what I want to be in my video so I don't miss anything on the actual day because if you don't plan out like that then you're definitely gonna not have enough footage for your video I don't know I feel like I'm going on a geek rant I don't know if you guys are interested in this but that's just how my mind works and I always like to like share advice and stuff so alright let's get started with this music Tiffany's final look so the president and the vpm always wears something just a little bit different and they match well at least our topter does and turn around let me see the hair so pretty and Jenny you look beautiful too thank you so I actually just went down for a prep party just to like hear the testimonials and let me just say I think I'm probably gonna cry more this year than like ever in my life because it's just so emotional to think that like this all happened so fast like high school goes by so slow but college literally like not to be cliche but like literally pass by in the blink of an eye and it's just so sad because like especially when you're senior you're like so close to these girls and like to even think that I'll be like in a different state or like just somewhere else without these people in the same house like every single day just like I can't even like imagine that and I don't know it's like really I don't know it's really emotional for me just because these girls have been my whole life for four years so just like I can't even imagine but I'm definitely gonna have some puffy eyes tonight that's all I have to say the best part of Pratt night is our white roses there's literally like buckets of them so we're like totally stealing them for a room because why not they're just here chilling so they're definitely gonna take them they're so pretty so it is currently like 10 p.m we just got our bid day shirts and I actually designed what's on the shirt like I drew it out on my iPad I'm so excited because I think it really turned out well on the shirt I'll show you guys more in depth like the shirt tomorrow hopefully but I'm trying to plan out like what I'm exactly wearing for bid day tomorrow usually the new member Ed only tells us our bid day theme like tonight like before prep so we like don't have any time to get our outfits but luckily this year we got to find out our bid day theme a week early so we had time to like get stuff and Amazon Prime stuff and obviously I knew the theme because I did the shirt so this is the first option I have this jeans skirt from American Eagle alright guys this is another option got these from boohoo hey guys happy bid day today is the day we get our new pledge class so we're all really really excited about that and I'm literally like put together my outfit last night and I couldn't sleep because I was just so excited about today this is the look today I'm super hyped about it I did my own hair and it's just like braids that go into a bun it turned out a lot better than I thought and then I curled the ends and actually these buns I added like 3 weps to each one of them of hair extensions so they're a little bit thicker I got all my necklaces from Amazon they're so cute and then these earrings so extra but I got them from Forever 21 my shorts are from boohoo and this belt I wish I could tell you where it's from maybe Forever 21 then this is our bid day shirt and I actually drew this whole thing on my iPad like I told you guys last night so this is what it looks like and then these shoes are from Amazon as well I got them in a beige color and I wanted to wear those but those are like coming a little later unfortunately so I'm wearing my black ones today who's ready for bid day I am I'm hungry she got some bendies going on double hoops oh yeah those look really cool coin belt rings, inklets trendy shoes got the trend going cute cute cute


Okay, so we're looking at female anatomy here So starting up here. We can see our ovary right here Then you have these finger-like projections here called the fimbrae Connect to the fallopian tube which flows into the uterus uterus is kind of suspended in place by the ligament here the uterine ligament Here we have our cervix cervical Which leads to the vagina The vagina has this also a little dead-end spot that kind of wraps around the cervix here This is called the fornix of the vagina Outside of the vagina you have two lips here the labia minora and labia majora Clitoris is up here in the front the pubic bone behind it You can see the bladder Urethra you have the anus and the rectum here as well


Hey everyone, Shabear1000 here. So, supposed to get the parts for Monkey's Tractor Friday. So, probably this weekend, I'll get them put on so we can get the yard mode. That's where the leech bed is, or leech field. Right in here's where, yes, they're on their way to pump it out again. Something, I think something's not right with the leech field. Kind of sluggish. But, that might be him there. Nope. So, yeah, we started noticing, yes, last night, if you want to run water, water was coming out from underneath the commode. So, that's telling me that that's probably full, and it's probably, you can see it is leaching some, but it just started doing that. About two weeks ago, I just thought it was from the shower, you know, because the shower was right there. I thought maybe some water, you know, came out of the shower. Because it didn't do it again until last night. So, we called him this morning and he'll be here. He's on his way now. So, we may have to put a new leech field in. So, we'll see. I know last time he was here, he quoted me 2200 if we ever had to do it. So, hopefully, that's about the same amount. Hopefully, it wouldn't be more. But, he told me then, he said, you know, it's working, but it's not working great. He said, keeping an eye on it, which, you know, I did. That was a year and a half, over a year and a half ago. It was December 8th, 2020. So, you know, I'm surprised it didn't last this long. I figured we'd be calling him sooner. But, right in here, I think it's where he's going to have to dig it up. Alright, so, I'll let you know what's going on. Stick around, guys. So, as you saw, we got her dug up and got her sucked out. Our leech field shot. There were, see, there's two holes here. There's one here, and that's where the drain is.  And it leeches that way. And there's roots coming in to the tank from this leech bed. So, it's from that tree. So, they've breached the pipe. And, of course, the roots are running up that way. So, it still is leaching some. But it's, you know, it's done. It's 30 years. House was built in 92. So, 30 years, yeah. So, we're going to move it over here into this area. So, it'll stay more away from that tree. It's $3,500, but that's everything. That's the permits and the soil testing and the water level testing, which we don't have to worry about that, because we have no clay. This is all sand. And, of course, we're above the water table and, you know, all that. So, we're good to go on that. So, here in about a week or two, they'll start coming in doing that. And then when all that's taken care of, they'll put a orange ribbon around that tree, and we'll be good to go. He said worst-case scenario, it'll be a couple months.  The drain did get kind of clogged up because it couldn't go anywhere.  But, yeah, he said if you have any problems, you call us and we'll come out for your charge, you know, until we get this done.  So, yeah, that's pretty good. But, yeah, if we would have had it done, but we didn't have the money to have the leech field done the last time we had it sucked out. So, it would have been around $22 to $2300. But the price of everything has jumped up that much since 2020. So, yeah, go figure, right?  So, you know, that's pretty commendable right there. You know, he could have said, well, I'm sorry, but things go up. But he said, you know, that's what I quoted them and they said they would save the money and they called him. They had three calls early this morning. Well, she had called last night and then she had called again this morning and he asked the secretary, he said, and he calls and she said, yeah, three, they need it done today and he said, any returning customers and she said, yes, one and he said, I'll take that one and it was us, so that was good. He worked us in. So that's pretty awesome. So that when that gets done, I'll be filming this and I'll run the drone up in the air and it should be kind of cool. We'll have a big old backhoe in here digging this up. It's going to be awesome, guys. Oh, shoot. Maybe we'll get some grass to grow finally. Who knows? Because we've got a park there now. We just moved that over there because, you know, we knew he was coming because this, I got to get this going. So while it was running, I thought I pulled over here. So we park there. But yeah, that was the whole cause of those roots from that tree, you know, 30 years.  Well, it's fertilizer, really. All right, guys. Anyway, there's an update for you. The onion garden is doing all right. I know I missed yesterday. I may get out there this evening and do an update for you for our third week update. They're doing pretty good. So anyway, guys. Shea Bear the Mythman Ledge. I'm gone for now. Stay tuned for more videos. I didn't get on that today. It was just too hot. They said the heat index was supposed to be 105, but it got hotter than that. So I stayed in the house today. In the past two days, you know, it was over 100 heat index. So, you know, the heat kind of got to me and I got to take it easy when I do that. We'll see you in the next one. Hope y'all stay safe. Enjoy the rest of your week. We'll see you soon. Bye-bye, guys. Take care.


Third grade students are walking all the way back to the medieval times and learning with each step along the way The last probably five weeks or so we've been studying Medieval life and the Middle Ages as part of their ancient civilization In their curriculum after sitting in the classroom to learn it is now time to put their education into action Everything that they've been learning is sort of re-emphasized by being here today What started nearly 10 years ago by Nancy Waller who today is better known as Queen Elizabeth Became a brainstorm a whirlwind of a day that continues to excite the kids time after time Each year, I just saw how much the kids loved dressing up and I would add to my collection Dressing up was a big hit This is night armor and it's very heavy But it also had an educational spin. We covered the fabrics the colors that only royalty can wear purple and red So we're doing a lot for the curriculum in addition to the kids having a lot of fun And as for seeing the adults dressed up Kind of Kind, it's kind of weird. It's funny. But even with lots of laughs The students they learn even more of what life was like back then Experiencing everything from games food clothes and of course armor For this week's golden apple in maryfield sarah winkelman like the news


Squid Game, the pop culture phenomenon which has spread its tentacles all around the world and throughout multiple mediums. The number one show on Netflix right now is obviously doing something right, but what is it about this show that makes it stand out amongst the countless streaming originals that have come before it? I'm Matt Rogers and join me today as we take a look at the genius that is Squid Game. But before we get to that, if you want videos on the latest movies and TV shows delivered straight to your subscription feed, be sure to hit that subscribe button and ring that bell to not miss a single thing. Now it takes a lot for a non-English speaking show or movie to make it big in English speaking countries. Unfortunately, a lot of people just don't like reading subtitles, but thankfully there's been some great examples of Korean entertainment breaking through those barriers. A perfect example would be 2019's Parasite, which did a clean sweep at the Oscars that year. But now we have Korea taking over our small screens also. Now from here there's a massive spoiler warning for the entire first season, so if you haven't yet finished the show, stop this video right now and come back when you have. Now the concept of Squid Game is simple. People have been given an opportunity to compete in childhood games for a chance to win a huge cash prize. But what I came to love so much about this show and what I'll be talking about in this video is how Squid Game subverts your expectations, leaving you never quite knowing what to expect. Predictability is so commonplace these days, it's nice to finally get a show that has you constantly guessing what's going to happen next and rarely giving you the satisfaction of being right. Now it all starts with the obvious. By contrasting bright, colourful, childlike rooms and games, the giant doll in the first game is a bit of a segue as it looks innocent, but its sheer size and emotionless face lets you know that something's up. But before you get too comfortable, you're hit hard with intense violence and utter disregard for human life, juxtaposition at its finest. There's definitely something unnerving about pools of blood and bodies scattered amongst an otherwise innocent setting, but the concept of expecting the unexpected doesn't stop there. Straight after the first game, the contestants decide to vote whether they want to continue. After everyone casts their vote, you immediately think the final contestant, number one, votes to continue the games, because how else would the show go on? It surely won't end after just one game, but lo and behold he votes not to continue and the games come to a grinding halt. And now knowing number one's true identity, sending them home was a genius way to give the contestants more motive to continue the games and actually want to play. I think number one knew from experience that upon returning the contestants will give it their all for the remaining games, if they were to return by choice. And they do. After the player's return in the game's resume, the harvesting organ's side story appears to hint at the doctor playing a larger role as the games play out, but before long it culminates in his death just a few episodes in, and does actually play a crucial part in not just the search for the policeman Jun Ho's brother, but also the dynamics of the fourth game, making the number of remaining contestants odd, whilst also expressing the importance of equality amongst the contestants. To reach the game of marbles, as there was an odd number of contestants, we just accepted the fact that number 212 is left partnerless and most likely eliminated. But expectations are subverted yet again and we see her unharmed and ready for the next game. But I'm getting a bit ahead of myself. Back to the heart-wrenching game of marbles, a brutal mechanic was introduced and almost all contestants chose to pair up with their closest friend in a competition, only to have them realise they are required to go head to head with only one survivor. Not one line of dialogue is wasted in this episode, with some fantastic character building and contestants really showing their true colours, and don't even get me started on the wasted tears on number 1. I have a rule that I always try to remember and that is if you don't see someone die on screen, they're probably not dead. But having to select shapes, teams and partners forced the contestants to make major decisions without any prior knowledge to support these decisions, leaving them with only instinct and no logic. My favourite example in my personal favourite game was the VIP episode with the glass panels. This game was expertly introduced by having the order of play chosen by the players, a dilemma that caused someone trying to prove himself by going first, actually having the worst chance once the game began. With that logic, once the game is revealed, last position sounds preferable, but as the game time adwindles, you soon realise those later in the pack and not in much better of a position. But let's talk about one of the main plot twists, the true identity of number one. This old man has a few tricks of avoiding death. The popular one that people are pointing out right now is he actually doesn't get scanned by the doll in red light green light, probably why he smiles so hard throughout the game. But upon rewatching, I also noticed that when the riot breaks out overnight, he hides up high and yells out for everyone to stop and the game organises into fear almost immediately, because he's obviously at risk and unable to defend himself if it came down to it. Plus he is presumably missing from the VIP episode, as the frontman asks the VIPs to excuse the host as he is dealing with a personal matter. But now that number one is no more, what effect will this have on the games? The season finale allows for the continuation of the series, but there are mixed reports whether we will get a second season. I think Netflix would be making a huge mistake to end the phenomenon here, but I guess it's really up to the creators. But with many potential plots and theories that could be explored in the second season, what do you think could happen? Will number 456 return to expose the whole operation? Maybe we'll be treated to a prequel to see how this all began. I'd love to hear what you think, so let me know. I'll be down there in the comments.

Look at the batsman go down the track and just smash this one straight up in the air. And where'd it go? Cameraman's confused, outfielders are confused, nobody knows where. Six, umpire just says, yeah, that's a home run in baseball terms, six in cricket terms. And there's looking like, where'd it go? Is it up there on a catwalk? Like this is Tampa Bay or what, where is it? Is it gonna fall down? He comes over, he goes, oh yeah, no, no, it's out.  Yeah, yeah, it went out the stadium, which is kinda crazy. See, there's a little opening right there and that player saying it went through that cleanly straight up. Either way, it was absolutely smoked.

Hey guys, so we have our tray here after the first pour it looks beautiful So I just wanted to point out a couple of things to you though, so So you can see here remember yesterday I mentioned the wood is just gonna soak up the resin like crazy and you can see some dry spots here Dave had a really good analogy yesterday. He said it's like pouring resin resin on a dry sponge You're gonna get spots where it soaks it up like crazy and a few dry spots too So I'm gonna give this a sanding because there are also those little bubbles where the wood gassed or off-gassed yesterday And then because I use the gloved hand the glove just sort of pulled some of the the loose bits of wood Especially from in here, so there are a couple of spots here where there's shadings and wood bits So what I'm gonna do first is I'm just gonna pick these out just me as a utility knife and pick these out here Okay, so we're just gonna give this a light sand Seems like kind of counter-intuitive to be doing this, you know, like you're ruining it, but it's gonna be fine Okay, so I've sanded down the front. I'm just gonna flip it over And you can see here all the little drips that it formed, so we're just gonna sand these down as well And watch how easily these come out You know what? This is gonna take a while.  Come on Let's go shopping. We're going to Lowe's. I love hardware stores It doesn't matter what kind when I was a kid my dad used to take me to the hardware store And my favorite thing to do was to go bring all the doorbells. I used to drive it around crazy They did. At least the one that we went to, they all work. Well, I don't know if Lowe's has that I don't know if they do or not. I haven't done it for a long time. This is what I used to do for ages That's like a clock. Oh, I'm gonna be here a while, sorry I'm busy. So that's how you do it So they'll be different different grits. Yeah, so there's 80 Okay, so we're back from our shopping trip. I got the belt sander Got my safety goggles, and I am going to sand this piece of wood here With this process seems like when you have like dense stuff in wood It's a bit of like it's like pouring and then sanding and then that reveals like even this is low And then you pour again. You'll probably do this For this to make it perfect. You might even do this like two more times. Really? Maybe even three more times. Yeah All right, that feels good. So dust it off take it back downstairs and we'll continue with our resin And now I'm ready to do another coat of resin I did wipe down all the dust with a damp cloth, but just to be on the safe side I'm gonna use this spray here just again to get into all those little crevices. Oh Yeah, there's a lot of dust coming off there Okay, so actually what I'm gonna do is just put a very very thin coat with a gloved hand Just on the bottom. I'm gonna let it dry and then tomorrow we'll flip it over and then I'm gonna start my layering Okay, so I've got some resin mixed up here and again. I want to be really really Frugal with the resin This is not gonna be the final coat so sometimes, you know because wood is not even it's not always level You might have to do this Resinning sanding resinning sanding step a couple of times and that is totally okay and normal So that first layer that we did yesterday is really gonna help because it's soaked into the wood So when we put this layer on It's gonna sit on top. We don't have those Patches, okay, so I've got my very very thin coat of resin on here We're gonna cover it up leave it overnight and we'll continue on starting our layers tomorrow Here we go. See you tomorrow. That's the best one


Yeah. Malachi Douglas with the added responsibility now to convert from 12 yards, having created the opportunity. Clarendon College's number seven will try and complete it. It's in his hands now to get goal number 16 of the season. Clarendon College, will they get the advantage? Yes they will. That's what star players do. Take it upon themselves to drag their team in front and Malachi Douglas has done it for the defending champions with the lead over Garvin Masayo at the interval. Well that was a decisive move from him and that's his 29th goal involvement this season. 16 goals, 13 assists. Yeah made the penalty and picked himself up and finished with a plum.


Look at me. Do you see a sophisticated system? 3.8 million years of nature's engineering to learn from? In the natural ecosystem everything that lives circulates forever How? It all started with a crazy question. Can we create textile fiber by using nature's own process? By learning from the master nature herself by imitating nature Like how a spider produces its web That question led us to invent a brand-new way of making fiber out of wood and waste A revolutionary natural fiber the first of its kind 10 years of scientific research Thousands of trials and vigorous industrial scaling has led us to this moment Benefiting the entire global textile industry with a process so clean and pure with zero harmful chemicals and dissolving zero No compromise Because all t-shirts should be produced with only one liter of water No harmful chemicals side streams or waste Just like nature designed it. We produce a textile fiber that breathes, lives, endures, warms over over and over again and again That's the way nature has always done it Spinova It's interesting It's so great to be here I'm here to talk about how to bring a transformative innovation to the market what to do what not to do and the role of partnerships My name is Lotta Kopra chief commercial officer at Spinova and Previously a founder and an entrepreneur in the digital space Let's go Spinova is a transformative textile innovation We are the only company in the world that can produce textile fiber out of many different raw materials Completely with no harmful chemicals or dissolving our vision is To transform the raw material base of the entire global textile industry and this is a tall order for a small company But we do think it's possible to achieve firstly. We have a game-changing innovation at hand and secondly We have the strongest partners standing alongside us Today is about partnerships. So I put here in the deck a few of our key strategic partners. We work with We work with these companies these amazing companies very Concretely and strategically so their technical teams commercial teams together with our technical teams or commercial teams To build together a product that suits their needs and also is optimal for the environment We work with Adidas the Nord phase H&M Echo Burgans Marimekka icebreaker and Many others that are not public today. These companies are very special in the way. They are committed in sustainable innovation And also good to mention that we have very strong partnerships also in the area of raw material technology and finance Okay What's good to mention in this context is that every great success looks like an overnight success to the outside Same for spin-off. It is however everything but an overnight success The spin-off journey began 11 years ago when our co-founder Juha Salmela was visiting a lecture series in Oxford and The lecture was about how spider is spinning the spider web and the similarities between the spider silk protein and nanosellulose and Juha with his co-founder Janne Boranen got very excited about this idea and They combined this idea with the expertise in a rheology a field of science that studies how particles flow in a manner And eventually they asked a simple yet massively radical question Could textile fiber be produced completely with no harmful chemicals if it was possible The world would look very different There would be no land drying caused by the textile industry. There would be no chemical heavy textile dye There would be less social problems and there would be no micro plastics caused by the textile industry And this sets the scene for our talk today. Something obviously needs to be done and I Can be humble yet proud to say that spin-off can take a role in tackling these global challenges We can do our part and we can do more Today spin-off can produce a textile fiber with zero harmful chemicals and with very little water. We have a mechanical process That enables our fiber to be very natural It looks and feels like a natural fiber and it is fully circular meaning can be grinded into new fiber again and again As raw materials we can use many different waste streams that we are very proud of textile waste Agriculture waste like wheat straw. We can use leather waste like we do today with eco even food waste like potato peels and Of course certified wood our target is to produce 1 million tons of textile fiber annually in 10 years time This corresponds to 4% of the global cotton volume and it is a good start We are here to disrupt this industry, but we can't do it alone That's why we have built a strong network of partnerships in in raw material in brands and in technology and Now I'll be sharing a few concrete secrets from the battleground how is spin-off able to Commercialize this innovation together with partners. We have five learnings here the first one You don't need to be unique at first For an innovator it is an absolute dream To build something unique a unique product something that no one has built before it's something amazing and different So for an innovator it is a big dream to build a unique product, but For somebody who is trying to sell the product. It is a total horror like me why Let's take the textile industry as an example the textile industry is very stable And traditional It has seen very little actual material innovation in the past 100 years It's regulated. It's built to minimize risks and I can ensure you that it's not a good position to be in to sell Something that no one has seen before no one has used before So that's why to build a product market fit in the textile industry You need to at first be a copycat You need to build something that is easy for material experts to understand easy for designers to design easy to buy for sourcing So you want to be a copycat you want to build a substitute for something that exists in the market today How did we do that at Spinova? We needed to improve our focus We needed to put aside for a while all the great things that Spinova is and all the ways that our technology is superior and We took one product area that had high demand and good technical fit and for us it was the cotton So we built a product a Blended product that could substitute cotton today That would be easy for designers to design easy for material experts to understand easy for sourcing to buy and It's easy for them to understand. It's they know what cotton is like. This is like cotton just way more sustainable So the learning here is your innovation might be unique, but you want your product to be a substitute initially learning number two So initially you don't want your product to be unique to hit the market fast But later if you want the last thing sticky position in the value chain or even to disrupt an industry You want to be unique So when you enter a mature market as an innovator There is really only one luxury you have and that is that you can Define the market for yourself. You can slice and dice the market the way you want to create your competitive field Everything else the customer decides on really So to disrupt an industry you need to be better much better or cheaper and you have a massive work ahead of you to Launch a new value proposition to the market and there's the big big question about do you want to launch a new cat Decorate or do you want to be a part of an existing one? so in practice a Big enough share of your markets early innovators need to feel that you are the holy grail in the industry They need to be so convinced that they are ready to take action and again companies don't create categories customers do So my coaching would be that even if you have a radical technical innovation You might want to reconsider launching a totally new category Oftentimes it is best to define your market so that you are the leader of an existing category Secret number three Big fish is not always the best The innovators destiny is shaped through its partners partnerships are the single most important thing defining an Innovators position and reputation in the market and In as an early company, it's easy to get distracted by big shiny brands You start to look at their brand appeal and you start thinking How great their logo would look like on your website, but you need to look further For spin over we have had a very explicit partner criteria from the start Most companies prioritize based on two criteria market opportunity and technical fit first one is obvious the second one tells us How well are we able to fulfill the customer need and how easy and Quick it is for us to fulfill that need is it risky In addition to these two there is a third criteria that We look at and actually every pre-commercial company should look at it's the most important one for us We call it commitment We only partner with companies who believe what we believe The value alignment is a critical go-no-go criteria for us And if this one is a yes and only if Then we also look at two additional criteria within the commitment box One being that does this company have ability to innovate. So do they have in-house R&D? Do they have people or processes and tools and budgets to work with a company like us? Then we also look at their commitment in us as a company This also has many many ways to do it Oftentimes it's for example manifests in their willingness to co-brand with us So we want to be the ingredient market in the end product to be visible for the consumer So the learning here be selective on your first partners prioritize based on values commitment and agility initially secret number four Let your innovation benefit your partners first The way I see it is that by focusing initially in contract negotiations In bargaining the best terms from the get-go. You might end up optimizing your numbers in short term But if you are there for the big game if you want to have a Defendable great position in the value chain or even to disrupt the global industry You should first focus in being very close to your partner and create value for them first In my opinion if you succeed in creating massive value for your partners first You will find yourself in the middle of a leading alliance in your industry and suddenly everybody wants to play with you in practice know your value chain and Identify the party there that is the party of power and influence for us Typically a fiber producer would sell upwards in the value chain to fabric or material producer Our product is both the fiber and the fabric and we sell always directly to brand owner In addition, we also want to have a very strong ownership in the raw material box Focus on creating value for your partners first Secret number five the most important one Trust is your only currency We believe in extreme transparency and honesty One could even say that we believe in the Finnish type of brutal transparency and honesty you fins in the audience know what I'm talking about So in the early days, it's not really about building awareness. It's about building trust It's not about selling your product It's about creating pool So building partnerships is always between people. So in a way, you are never selling to a company. You're always selling to a person Here is an example stakeholder base of ours at an example customer And how it evolves over time So first there is innovation team then sustainability materials and later on a whole bunch of different Organizations and functions that are in your stakeholder reach first. You are under the radar You have a handful of people and then later you have tens and later hundreds of people within just one partner and All of these people and different stakeholder types have different questions and worries about your product So your message needs to be very sharp and also the message It needs to have enough depth to fulfill all the demands and requests data requests that each and every party has and Let me tell you that these people have a lot of appetite for knowing more about your product So what's critical here is that you first identify and you find your true fans within this stakeholder base And first create trust amongst them They will be your ambassador or Ambassadors all the way to the big scale. So very crucial audience. These were our five secrets today It's not rocket science nor complex, but it is demanding It requires guts and trust is the biggest asset you have on the way My name is Lotta Cobra. Thank you


And done, let's head back in.  Here you are, check on it later. It's on tomorrow. Well, I'll head into town in the morning and then work in the arvo. Yeah, nice. No, no, no, no, no. What happened? Hit it with the hose. All triple zero.
