4 DAYS UNTIL MOVE-IN!!! - [Living in Alaska Day 29]

We've been living in hotels for 50 DAYS but in only 4 more, we'll be moving into our NEW HOUSE!!! Alaska has been amazing but it'll be even better once we can really unpack and unwind. FAVORITE KZbin TOOLS:

Stress really does eat at you. We have some big changes happening in the next few months away from KZbin and I can feel the stress pouring over into the rest of life too! UGH!! Just have to Stay Positive!!

[@Jin_Jon]

I know I'm like three years behind on this, but man, these videos are awesome.

[@rorfvonbun]

You were saying goodbye and kept going a little bit at the end and I mouthed goodbye and put my and up then you did it and I feel back on my chair! Cause I celebrated a little. I love it when you do that ever since around the time you started :D Thank You Corey!

[@CreekValleyCritters]

Wow, WAY more selection than in Whitehorse, when I go down to the coast I feel like I have been marooned on a deserted island for way too long, totally starved from variety when it comes to food.......Your road looks very similar to ours except we have conifers mostly, you have taller, lusher trees, much warmer and wetter in Anchorage. Nothing beats living in the country, so much safer and quieter and so private (the best part) plus all that nature :) A major move is listed as being as stressful as other major life changes e.g death :P When we moved to Whitehorse my conscious self was so pleased but my subconscious was reeling, very stressful first few months until the new became the new normal and my subconscious was happy again :)

[@AnimagiMj]

Hang in there Cory. Not every day is awesome, but better things are just around the corner!

[@ThtFluffyGuy]

Hang in there Cory everything will be ok remember everything happens for a reason!

[@RegularJohn53]

So far what I like most about Alaska is that everywhere you step in you can Classic rock.

[@mynxkat100]

I live in England and the vlogs for me are uploaded round about 11pm-midnight so its nearly the day after for me when I watch these blogs but they are worth staying up for.

[@TommyAndGracie]

No Tim Tams, but noticed the Kettle brand chips @ 2:54. You have to try the maple bacon Kettle chips if you haven't already ~ Amazing and addictive! Moving is very stressful but no more hotels and new house in 4 days!!

[@1212kendra]

I can't wait to see how the kitties react to the new house :)

[@ilovepizza2738]

Yeah it'll be so god to see them again - and little Penny :)

[@ilovepizza2738]

Ilovepizza 'oops, "good" :)

[@CosmicDiamondLizzal]

Hey love!!! You are doing the right thing and I am so happy for you and proud of you!!! We love you so much and always look forward to anything your brain heart and spirit have to share with us. You make me so very very very happy. Love and light to you and Kristin!

[@johng.3416]

I would like to hear Kristen say Goodbye too, PLEASE maybe again some time. Thanks for the VLOG, you lifted my spirits tonight!

[@Elle3May]

Keep your chin up Corey! Just remember this isn't permanent situation. It will change for the better and soon! You're soooo close! No worries it'll all work out and be ok!

[@carlab5449]

Yaaay I'm so excited for you Cory.. Calm down, just wait a little longer and boom it will be your house. We're all waiting with you

[@rochpaparazzi]

It's okay Cory! I can't wait to see your new house, and all of the wildlife!

[@icegirl1755]

oh my I feel you on that, I've been stuck living at my inlaws for 2 yrs, since we moved here to this state. All of my items are packed up and I've just been dealing with it. Nov 15th we get our house, the one we bought and we can move in and unpack and really start living again. I feel like I've been a hermit in my own bedroom b/c when your used to having your own space, then it's gone and you are reduced to a bedroom, it's horrible. So happy you get your freedom in 4 day, I have 2 months still.

[@RainbowMcFuzzy]

Congrats Corey! I can't wait for y'all to get settled in. :D

[@FrozenGenesis]

Can't wait to see the kitties reaction to the new house. :)

[@shiloweensminger1138]

LOL...I have watched so many of your vlogs..especially from the moving from LA to Alaska and I have to say, you remind me SO much of my brother. Same humor and it cracks me up. I am pretty sure you both were separated at birth or something. Your vlogs have inspired me and my family to make sure we do the ALCAN and head up to Anchorage for a summer during our traveling the country in our RV. I used to live in Kenai/Soldotna area in my 20's and I miss it so much. I do not miss the winter so much but I do miss Alaska. I can't wait to revisit and explore with my family! So I just wanted to leave a comment expressing how much I have enjoyed your vlogs and I can't wait to watch the rest of what you have posted and continue for as long as you decide to vlog. We are going to be doing the same thing about our adventures traveling the country with our children. If you have not yet been to the Kenai area, you MUST. It's so pretty over there, the fishing is amazing and I know Homer is far but MAN is it worth it. Honestly...bald eagles EVERYWHERE. It's gorgeous country over there and a very small town feel. I loved living there SO much. I remember walking to the river from our rental house just to sit and listen to the ice move and crack and the rushing water underneath the ice. There is nothing like that sound. I will also never forget being chased by a cow moose thanks to my dog charging her, lol. Good times. :)

[@907gunter]

Mr. Ford sent me and I will play your videos on a loop in the background whenever my PC is on. Congrats on the daughter man.

[@mzamy]

Yay! Everyone loves our Tim Tams. :-)

[@CoDisafishy]

Something I learned is to not rely on things to make you happy, try to be as happy in the present as you can and wait until things get better or you'll be stressed for no reason in the mean time. I just realized that lately I've sounded like a hippy in the comment section but I just figured that I'd give some positive advice from my own experience. I realize that my advice may not seem as credible because my channel is based around video games and I'm young but it's not really about how long you've lived but how much you've experienced to give advice that can help others. I'm just trying to help, sorry if I sound annoying.

[@ilovepizza2738]

Yeah peace man! ;) Seriously tho' your advice in this comment is good.

[@CoDisafishy]

Ilovepizza Haha thanks :)

[@katepennant5829]

Are you Buddhist by chance? Very Buddhist esque mindset! Good advice.

[@CoDisafishy]

Katie Pennant No, mainly just my own experience and what I've seen others go through. I guess my ideas are similar though. Thanks for the comment :)

[@dagman85]

Your comment reminds me of a Bible passage I came across today: Philippians 4:11b-12 (NIV): "...I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want."

[@MichaelSwan66]

well the all weather tires came in just the nick of time looks like the house will be too you have done real well with the big move hang in there you two :)

[@Soria89Swedish]

i hope the cats love the new house too!

[@chibimichi]

So excited for you all!! 4 days will go by quick!! It might be a great idea to invest in a Sunlamps and Full Spectrum Lights they are great for treating Seasonal Affective Disorder and assisting in Vitamin D production for those long sunless days. I've seen a little one at Jo-Anne's Craft stores but I'm sure they sell them in many places!

[@natureguy0196]

Hiya Cory, have a much better day Tomorrow and I'm very excited for you to be moving into your new house and getting settled in wit Kristen :)

[@pushback244]

Bless ya Kristen, good de-stressing lady for the 'venting' Cory bahaha xxxx

[@wolfprincess027]

WOOHOO! I'm excited for you guys! LOL at the start of this vlog. It reminds me of my weekly vlog where I had to make the comment, "I'm sterilizing a squirrel spine!" Yeah I think that was the most random thing I've ever vlogged. lol

[@Lady_Jay]

look at it this way you only got one more day as i watch this vlog sending you lots of love and hoping your move goes well xxxx

[@buddylight2191]

I can't wait to see your house.

[@ACpony12]

once your moved in take a video of your kitties exploring their new home! My cat Anubis is sleeping on my left hand and half of my laptop. All he and his brother have is this tiny one bedroom apartment. They are at least kinda leash trained. You should leash train yours if you haven't already so they can explore outside safely.

[@MadeInAlaska87]

I miss New Sagaya!! So homesick, so absolutely loving your vlogs! :D

[@Traayya62]

A song lyric that comes to mind at the moment about you Corey, 'Maybe it's not my weekend, but it's going to be my year'.

[@ParadoxdesignsOrg]

Get some happy lights!

[@griffinpyros2887]

Well, I'm glad to hear you'll be in your new house soon, very soon. Hope all the legal crap with that particular mouse gets sorted soon.

[@Crimsonrosesful]

Hey Cory, I really enjoy your vlogs from Alaska. I understand your enjoyment of the great outdoors vs being cooped up in a concrete jungle. Have you found any metal detecting locations yet to explore or do you need to consult the lawbooks before going out on your epic adventures? At any rate, just keep swimming! You're truly a blast when you're in your element.

[@MissAlyninja]

You know what's really awesome Cory? My mum used to work where they make tim tams. Just hope you find some in Alaska or you need an special tim tams postman haha

[@Sangreaalstube]

Can't wait until you're blogging about the -80 degree weather. Winter is coming. Get cords and cords of firewood, stat, if you're going to heat your house with a woodstove. I'm an expat from Cali as well, moved to Colorado. It gets that cold here too. Be prepared!

[@proudamerican57]

Both of you should go have a funny t-shirt made about being stuck in a hotel room. But really, go buy a couple new shirts and pants for both of you. And of course the cats and dog should get a new toy and catnip. Or have the shirts with a date when you left cali and when you got to Alaska or when you move in. A fun reminder of your new beginning. Love your videos thanks.

[@cindyreddeer]

I think technically, since is the 21st when I'm watching this, it's now 2 days? :D Glad things are moving along on the legal front and hopefully you get it sorted soon. :) No Tim Tams but I saw one of my favourite types of short bread on that shelf. :D

[@RoloFilms]

Missed oportunity there Cory, "The rest of the vlog, urine for a treat!" He he he. I'm so funny.

[@bellefrost]

Taro is sooo good~ *The first bag* It has a flavor all of it's own. I tend to get either something made with Taro or just the root when I stop by the Asian store near me.2

[@SkylineGTRB26]

Any Chinese/Asian supermarket anywhere has most likely the cheapest fruits in the city and has the most selection. Try it out for groceries one day, you might be pleasantly surprised. Of course one may differ from another so shop around and find your favourite store.

[@Krispi-Kat]

Good good! I'm glad you got a lawyer. I hope you get credit for your work man.

[@angelawalls9697]

If you haven't tried it yet definitely go to Kriner's Dinner. Great food!

[@kingfrederik]

first of all thanks for the advice. second for anyone interested in Dragon fruit, they do stock it in UK super markets, they have it this time of year in some waitrose and Sainsburys and randomly in tesco. it's only about £1.20 probably a lot more easy to find in the south/ south east sort of area. I have a feeling that in about a month or two you'll be going hatless just because.

[@grimmtoast-k3s]

ASDAs have it as well usually 2 for £2

[@bcgrote]

And here I thought it was Bear Grylls... Yeah, alcoholism is a BIG problem in Alaska. Nothing else to do, apparently. Two things you MUST do, Cory. First, check on Google maps and GPS to make sure Fedex and UPS can find your house. Maybe stop at one of the "stores" and ask if they would know your new address. xsparkage got a new house and neither shipper had knowledge of the address because it was a brand new construction. As long as they can find your house, you can order from Amazon! Secondly, get an Ott light or other full spectrum UV lamp. Get full spectrum bulbs for the house if they don't have them already. This can help prevent SADD (Seasonal Affective Disorder), which is a sort of depression caused by lack of sunlight and UV. Also, get Vitamin D pills. Not having sunlight means your body will become deficient in it. Vitamin D helps your body do important things, and it helps make other nutrients. It will keep your hair from falling out too! Keep recharging, soon you will have your own space. And you will have memories of that time to share. It's a good sign that the two (5) of you can share one room!

[@secondstar4170]

I want you in your new house as soon as possible, too! The kitties and Penny will have more room. I know they miss their cat trees. Have the cats seen a moose yet?

[@BenettonBear]

that first drink you picked up in the market is actually a korean ginseng drink! and the other one (bacchus-D) is a korean energy drink, tastes like redbull tbh.

[@wildfireamv]

Haha Cory if you wanted TimTams that bad you should have come to Australia ;D

[@nicksac105]

Gotta love the bums in anchorage.

[@reddeadswede98]

Rain is the beast weather

[@IlluminateReality]

KEEP VLOGGING CORY!

[@gwennedawson4766]

I spent a long time in hotels during moves before. The longest one, over a month, I wound up getting a small television and hooking my PS2 to it since the hotel didn't have the actual remote to change the feeds to the television they had. That being said--I knew I'd get bored so I'd made sure to bring my game systems with me and not ship them/store them. And books. And the hotel had free internet =x

[@12359awesomeness]

Funny thing is most of the food you showed from the market was Korean. What is up with all the Korean things. The spa, then the coin and now the food. I am Korean If your wondering.

[@Anna_Stetik]

That's an opener I won't soon forget. o.0 I'm glad you went to the grocery store, I got to see what prices are like in AK. People say it's "so expensive", but those prices are cheaper than what I see where I live.

[@WasonJar]

Get this man in his house dammit! You don't want to see him crazy. You won't like him when he's crazy.

[@TheSwillChronichles]

'Urine' trouble if you decide to drink an unknown yellow substance in a random bottle lol (Couldn't help myself...) =D

[@fosterkittensak]

It's okay to be stressed. Living in a hotel would probably make most people go a little nuts. I have also witnessed somebody taste some piss from a bottle downtown. Downtown is a bit crazy late at night, I make it a point to go home before bar close. Also, Alaska is expensive, and New Sagaya is generally a bit more expensive anyway. The deli is great for lunch though! There's also one downtown on 13th and I.

[@cassleer]

You can always get amazon prime and get them (Tim Tams) in 2 day shipping lol you may want to get a amazon prime account for basic items that do cost more there. Also I suggest a Nesco Snackmaster Pro Food Dehydrator FD-75A to make your own jerky and other snacks

[@TheALTAnative]

I'm from Malaysia and Durian is one of my favourite fruits but I can understand that you don't like the taste. At least you tried and I applaud you for that :)

[@obnoxiousbluebird6634]

I was confused as to why you couldn't find tim tams as every store in this country (Australia) has them, even the little private corner shops, then I realised they aren't a staple food over there like here (we have unofficially added it to the daily food pyramid). I would love to send you some tim tams but I'm a bit of a You Tube Noob and wouldn't have a clue how to go about that! If you read this and would like me to I'd be honoured :-). Oh and if you haven't tried the "tim tam slam" then I would highly recommend it lol

[@dalekkiller]

Gee Cory if you going nuts now, wait till you hit winter. Enjoy the constant night.

[@FroZenL1Qu1d]

Always great ;)

[@Jamie-jg6yt]

was wondering when you would find new sagayas. It's a oriental and fish market so thats why alot of asian stuff. There are 2 locations, so maybe the other location has tim tams? I go to UAA and my class is right across the street from that new sagayas. If you really want a unique experience there is a place called IHOH its right across from the sears mall and they do hotdogs but they put stuff on top of them.

[@TomStick91]

If there's a Target in your area, that's probably your best bet of finding Tim Tams.

[@johnstephenson4302]

Don't stress about the lawyer thing, instead be happy that you found out... cause now you can help set things straight for others everywhere.

[@TheFatcat133]

Cory,those you say that tastes like feet is actually Durian...I like durian but there's the fact that I'm from Singapore (so yah),many people here like durian but it depends on your tastebuds

[@DarrellRoper]

Hurry up and move in before the snow set in. :)

[@UpCountryLass]

I hope you didn’t knock yourself silly when you bashed your head-bones!!! LOL!

[@metallitech]

The alcohol problem in Alaska looks like a real downside.

[@Sirrantsalot]

It's a city thing. Live in a city you see lots of crazy people.

[@metallitech]

Zombissux Yeah but not that bad. I've just looked it up now, and Alaska seems to be worst for alcoholism.

[@CraftAmundous]

There's an alcohol problem EVERYWHERE. So that's not really a downside, it's reality.

[@Flawcreek]

If you think that's bad.. Oh man, haha.

[@metallitech]

Zombissux I get the feeling it is not just a city thing in Alaska (more of an everywhere thing).

[@lafayette1982]

Is it bad that by the Aquafina the sign that said pure ahhhh made me laugh. Thinking about the guy that must have really needed to go to use a water bottle?

[@Frankies-noot]

You like Tim Tams? AHH! They were created in Australia in 1964! I loved them anytime prior to December 2015 XD

[@ReubenLL28]

Dragonfruit is not like giant kiwi. It tastes completely different, and the only similarity is the small seeds.

[@CreekValleyCritters]

You have become a house stalker, happens when you are so excited about your new place, but have to wait a few weeks before it really is yours :)

[@brianher67]

Build some kind of house of wood in the nature and then set up a tent inside :P

[@Klink52]

Just curious. Renting or buying? You guys planning on living in Alaska a year or forever??

[@Sheridan2011x]

Cory & Kristin - I know for sure that Chuck E Cheese was playing the vid with your kitties on June 26th. I took my dau there that day. I'm in southwest Oklahoma.

[@quangle102]

I'm from Vietnam and dragon fruit is soo cheap! And it also look a lot better than that :) I can eat one or two a day when in season and damn it is refreshing. But I have never eaten Kiwi :( How does it taste?

[@Dudeonwheels]

I feel for you man. I couldn't last that long without MAH GAMEZ!

[@Surfi2006]

The second one was an energy drink? That's odd... Bacchus is the Roman God of wine. It's pronounced Buck-ous. :)

[@madsl1cer]

Tim Tams are the best Straya!

[@canucktunes]

Wow. Dragon fruit are only 3 bucks each here in Ottawa, Canada.

[@mythicmunchkin]

I LOVE DRAGON FRUIT!! XD

[@LunaRav3n]

Omg I love dragon fruit!! And dragon fruit juice

[@MiaOnline]

hahahaha For a moment I thought you were talking about Bear Grylls!

[@Spooky-Sara]

Actually the energy drink was called "Bacchus-D" as in back-us. And Bacchus is the Roman God of wine and alcohol. Dionysus is the Greek version of Bacchus, hence "Bacchus-D".

[@Olderdingo]

TIM TAMS!!! G'day from Oz

[@jewelharris8857]

I have been watching your video from no. 1

[@Sonora0Redwing]

I agree that Dragon Fruit is like the best ever!

[@OpaqueDragon4]

"I watched a man drink urine" *clicks on the like button*

[@ilovepizza2738]

Lol

[@RailfanAmber]

$10 dragonfruit?! Whenever we have them at my store they're like $4 at most!

[@MiniOne82]

sounds like the drunk guy was having a right piss up lol

[@MrChief101]

Aside from the urological oddity, which was not so objectionable-- this was a perfectly serviceable vid. As for presence of Asian foods, you're at the top of the Pacific Rim and Anchorage is the big market. Interesting stuff.

[@PierreSimonsson]

what about the bottled water ? do you mean tht it is crzy to drink bottled Water or what here in sweden we have perfectly clean water in the sink. so it is pretty stupid tio by Water in Bottles

[@Octography]

Bacchus D is an energy drink. My Korean husband loves it.

[@noahsark1962]

Costing $10.00 I will stick to the kiwis. The weather there is similar to ours right now.

[@RyzawaVT]

That intro made me laugh!

[@thewomanwithnohead]

Sooo ... Bear Grylls is living in Alaska, isn't he ;) ? Haha !

[@tvurk]

6:30 Last time Cory said his usual "Goodbye!!" at the end of the vlog.. RIP old ending lol
