I’m sooo late Queen but I definitely get the anxiety, cuz when people stare at me it’s makes me very anxious and uncomfortable 😭

Ben Turner

I’m sooo late because I’m a month on month off patron (struggling student haha) but omg Dee your editing just keeps getting better and better! The song choice, the shots the transitions, just *chef’s kiss*. Keep doing you Dee!

Tyree

I think I heard you mention Verity before. See, I have that book but I haven’t gotten around to reading it yet. Colleen Hoover’s writing typically isn’t very great from the spoiler reviews of her other books I’ve watched on YouTube. But that’s usually romance, so maybe Verity could be a standout.

Laila A

loll i will stay away😭😭

Dee Shanell

I think Verity is a good psychological thriller. It has it’s issues, like most books, but overall I thought it was an exciting and interesting read!

Dee Shanell

Girllll don’t make the mistake I made by reading two books from her 😂 she’s not a great author imo, I’m done with her lol

Tyree

Any recs? I’m currently reading The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware.

Laila A

i’m very late but i lovee the inclusion of ur current reads, i also loved the silent patient ! i was actually thinking abt reading never lie😭 but i read the inmate by her recently & it wasn’t great

Laila A

so did i!!

Tyree

Oohhh Dee, I read “The Silent Patient” some months ago and enjoyed it a lot. Has some flaws, of course, but nothing I couldn’t get over. Happy to hear you also enjoyed it!

Del

ohhhhh gotchu gotchu mb

Dee Shanell

Thanks Del, glad you enjoyed! But yes that's exactly what I used to do with most videos before Patreon allowed direct uploads, but some people had issues with playback on the app and were so relieved when Patreon allowed direct uploading. I don't want to cause issues for those people, but thanks for the feedback! ❤️

Del

Another amazing vlog as alwaysss 🫶 I love when the girlies get together and just embrace the silliness lollll 😂 Also for the last bit you’ve mentioned, I’ve seen other patreon people just upload on YouTube unlisted and then embed the video here or put the unlisted link…. Not sure if that’s what you want to do but just thought to give my 2 cents 🫡🫡

Dee Shanell

Aww thank you Bobby! I really like making these videos, so it brings me joy that you guys enjoy them ❤️ appreciate the love & support

Bobby🫶🏾

I love these vlogs so much! You put so much into these vlogs from the music choices to the beautiful aesthetically pleasing shots of the buildings and scenery. I appreciate you for the effort you put into everything and for sharing it with us! Thats why you’re my favorite content creator! 🫶🏾

ClttMinaj🤍

I just put two and two together. Because doesn’t BP stand for British Petroleum😭

Dee Shanell

I like Blu Jam too! Their cornflake French toast is pretty good. And yes, def check out Gritz & Waffles, it’s a must!

Saturn Maynie

Gritz n wafflez looks cool. Ima have to check that one out! Blu Jam is really good too if you havent been there before!

KnymsWrld

Oh your welcome my dear! ❤️

Dee Shanell

🤣

Dee Shanell

I think exposure therapy works great lol the more you put yourself out there, it gets a bit more manageable. We all struggle with something, don't feel bad! It gets better over time :)

Dee Shanell

I've never been, but it looks good! Nothing wrong with a lazy brunch lol

Dee Shanell

🥲 very sweet of you to say, I appreciate your kind words. I put a lot into these videos so I'm happy you enjoy them, it makes it all worth it! Thank you ❤️

KnymsWrld

I love, love looove your vlogs! You are so talented. I have been binge watching your vlogs this month and i am impressed with your editing skills including the soundtrack. Okay, DeeJay Dee lol keep em coming, sis!

Fahad

If you’re looking for fantasy books, I recommend the Will of the Many. i’m new to fantasy but this book made me more interested in it. Highly recommend.

Isaiah Thompson

Best brunch I get is DTLA Urth cafe 😭 I’m so lazy

Juan R

The part where you talk about your social anxiety made me feel so much better about myself coming from someone I admire flaws and all. I struggle with it on a daily basis and whenever I'm out I'm constantly in a battle of trying not to think about it and not be in my head. It's getting better as I get older but Im still waiting for that day when I can just relax and be free no matter where I am or how many people I'm surrounded by till then one step at a time. Love these 💖✨

Cesar R🇩🇴

Pedro who?😂

Dee Shanell

LilJonJon86 to be precise 😂

Dee Shanell

Aww thanks Hugo, that means a lot! I get bored watching most people's vlogs too so I know what you mean lmao so I really try to make content that I would like watching. Glad you enjoy 😊

Dee Shanell

This where we gotta go when you visit! Lol and yeah I feel you, getting out dealing with people definitely can be annoying....even my friends work my nerves 😂 but I think it's great for mental health to be social and build community!

Dee Shanell

Thanks so much ❤️😊

Dee Shanell

Thankss, I def gave some push back at first because we already went through so much involving her birthday before this lol but I'm glad I participated :)

Dee Shanell

Thank you! Tried to fit the mermaid theme lol

Dee Shanell

Thankss 😊

Dee Shanell

Period! People expect you to roll over and die when you hit 30 lmao it's so silly

Dee Shanell

Happy to know, thankss 🤗

Dee Shanell

😂 glad you enjoyed

Dee Shanell

Most def! It's a great spot

Michael Clarke

Not John John catching a stray in the beginning, im dead.

Hugo Mourão

another great vlog! you're literally the only person who's vlogs never make me fall asleep mid way, they're interesting all the way through!

Devron Love

This makes me wanna do brunch in LA so bad! Specifically to go to Grits and Wafflez! The food looks fire!! Edits on point, transitions on point, LOVE this Dee! And your friend from London is hilarious!! I haven’t been out in ages, to a club or whatever like that but I would go out if I had a friend group like that. I’m lame and keep to myself these days, but watching this vlog kinda makes me wanna get out and make some friends…then when I go out and see the folks outside, I change my mind lmao 😆

reylt

Yet another amazing vlog 🔥🔥

gigu

i have social anxiety so i completely agree with you but you’re a good friend because you still dressed up!

.

Going out in costumes looked like such a vibe! Your eyeshadow was popping

Frozenone

I love this

annoyedsquire

Marcella Stefanie

LunaLunar

Taurean Reign

Nasteho

Yesss, it truly is mind blowing!

ClttMinaj🤍

Love your mini book reviews <3

Dee Shanell

Yesss she makes all her characters so incredibly idiotic! Lol that book is also highly rated 🤯

Dee Shanell

Aww thanks so much Roger! And yes def come visit! ❤️

Nasteho

I feel so seen knowing I’m not the only one that HATED Never lie!!! The main character just pissed me off the entire time!!!

Roger P

This vlog is beyond amazing. I always enjoy your videos. LA is another city on my bucket list to visit

Dee Shanell

Yayy glad to know I can provide some options of what to do in LA 🤗

Dee Shanell

Thankss, hope you enjoy! ❤️ LA is cool but nothing to cry over chile 😂 don’t romanticize it too much, it may lead to disappointment when you actually move here if it doesn’t live up to your high expectations

Dee Shanell

Thanks! The noise cancellation is a result of my editing though, not the mic. I tweaked the audio for that particular clip because the background noise was too loud

mal

oh my god what kind of microphone were you using at 17:49? the noise cancellation was great!!!

𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐝

Cant wait to watch thisss !! We appreciate u dee 💞💞 also i wanna live in LA so damn bad. Its literally the place of my dreams. I swear when I go there the first time in the future, I will be crying.

Dee Shanell

💃🏾💃🏾

Dee Shanell

Oh trust, I don’t feel bad at all. I’m going whenever I feel like it lol life is to be enjoyed!

Dee Shanell

Yeah I be reflecting on things my parents said, like damn they were right 😂

Dee Shanell

Thanks Emani, glad you like the music 🤗

Carter

I would love to visit LA someday These videos have been a good guide for traveling

RPL

These LA vlogs are my favorite!! But don't feel bad about going to clubs in your 30s. My mom still goes to clubs and she is in her 60s, her social life is better than mine🤣

BruhItsRodrick

yuhhh we in the clurb with Dee🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾

BruhItsRodrick

The moments where you mentioned your mom is so real and lovely 🥹😩😩😂. I definitely be having full circle moments too now that I’m older over things that my mom did and said to😂

Emani

Great video as always! One thing I always enjoy in your vlogs is your song selections, and each mashup on this video was fire

Dee Shanell

That’s wassup! I have a couple family members in Stockton. But yes definitely come visit LA when you can, you’ll have a time 😊

Dee Shanell

Aww I love that, shout out to your parents! It’s so dope that it’s acceptable in African cultures. I have a few Nigerian friends and they’ll sometimes post their parents dressed up partying and dancing at events, it’s so cute lol

Dany

The scenic view of LA is fav part of the vlogs! Also Dee the boobies was poppin in ur outfit, why u didn’t show us the full fit?!

Tamara Manley

I'm really loving the living in LA vlogs!!🥰And I agree about still being able to go out and dance the older you get. My parents don't go to the club,but they are African and always have different events they go to and I love that they are 63 (mum) and almost 71 (dad) and are still living life!❤️

Josie Russell

Love watching your vlogs! I lived in Northern California (Stockton) with my family for 2 years and didn’t get the chance to enjoy the beauty of LA, since I didn’t have the best experience the first time. I’m definitely open to visiting Cali again and really enjoy the local spots!
