daily life in nyc ☕🗽 | my apartment situation..

so I lived out of hotels for 17 days. in the beginning, I felt extremely apprehensive knowing that the only 'home' I have in the U.S. was ruined so suddenly. But from this experience, I've also learned to look at these situations with the "glass half full", doing the little things in life that make me happy. looking back, this was one of those unique experiences in life that I know I will look back at & laugh. additional key takeaways: 1) it's kinda nice to have bed made every day 2) i love free breakfast 3) I moved back in last week and the first night I kept scaring myself thinking the building could crash at any second

看完影片很收穫到的一句話 「ln situations like this, you can either choose the positive side or the negative side.」 我有時會告訴自己，壞情況的發生，好事就會伴隨其後

Hey Lillian! Love your videos so much!! So sad to hear about your apartment but congrats on 100k subscribers!! WOW! Seeing your daily life in NYC has been so fun to watch. Thanks for sharing with us!

[@kayleeger3998]

Love how you’re still staying positive and I hope everything turns out well!

[@LillianChiu101]

[@michaelyoung9989]

[@julesmariee]

Going through a very similar situation and finally moving into our new place tomorrow! You definitely did better at staying positive 😅 congrats again on the 100k and I hope everything is resolved soon!

[@hamunaptraabrahan1351]

You were wonderful today, Lilian. I loved this valuable information about everyday life in NY, the apartment seemed great. I admire your enthusiasm that you put into this video and entering a new season of the year that is fall. Have a nice day.

[@LillianChiu101]

[@FrostFreak2007]

Wow what a mess. Glad you are taking it in stride! I would recommend a de-humidifier in case there's any excess moisture. Hope things return to normal soon!

[@MarkisCouch_1WhatJustHappened]

Wonderful video! I hope your life improves. Stay positive! Columbus, Ohio USA

[@Swordyfiish]

That's so scary, I'm glad you're trying to look at it positively! Random question but how do you usually work at coffee shops if you need to use the bathroom? Do you just take all your stuff with you into the bathroom every time you need to go?

[@zaqxsw148]

Hi Lillian! 從前幾個月發現妳的頻道就很喜歡地把全部都看完了 :D 一部份覺得很有共感因為自己也在美國畢業後開始做DA，另一部分覺得很佩服how you tackled pressure and shared those abstract points in a digestable way. Thanks for doing this.

[@LillianChiu101]

thank you so much! 有啊~心情會上上下下, 雖然影片可能都拍得比較postiive 的(因為都是心情好才拍的xD) 高中的時候沒自信, 大學的時候焦慮一直掉髮(自己在美國+找工作壓力) 相信你也懂, 剛出社會覺得自己好笨, 到現在快26了雖然有自信, 但也會感到焦慮+迷茫, 不知道以後要做什麼. 以後會多分享的~

[@zaqxsw148]

@@LillianChiu101 真的～我也跟你一樣大，好懂，辛苦妳拉！期待之後的影片，上班順利！

hi lillian, i was just wondering how you like the dyson hair dryer! i was curious about it but wanted to hear your opinion after seeing it in your vlog

[@mansoor3159]

[@LillianChiu101]

she is doing well! we had to book hotels that allow dogs and she seemed to have alot of fun sniffing and exploring the hotel xD we gave her back to her owner the day after because we could barely take care of ourselves T.T

[@dhirajraju4297]

Hey Lillian, Im a working QA for the last 4 years, I aspire to become a BA, do I need to do a master's and if yes then which program should I choose?

[@chaodu3638]

第一次评论，看了你的video感觉像是和你一起遭遇了一场家里被淹了，哈哈哈哈。albert说的没毛病，遇到事情得往好的方向想，多多更新视频呀，带我们畅游下US.

好奇在外面住的飯店有補貼上限嗎?沒有的話我會直接訂超貴飯店住XDD

Hi, can you share what equipment you use? What mic you use? :)

[@LillianChiu101]

[@jinsight3944]

Blank Slate is a PE backed chain which is why they’ve turned up so many locations across the city, personally found their food and ambiance very cookie cutter and bland when I went in the past

[@LillianChiu101]

i just realized that too! I got their bagel and it was good, but don't think I'll go and try their brunch food

[@kln_o1.24]

會覺得去住飯店像出去玩一樣 哈哈哈哈哈

[@LillianChiu101]

真的~雖然想念在家煮飯T.T

[@busloxwcko7randy]

U prefer New York or your hometown Taiwan? Just want to ask only so that I can know about your life. 😂

[@canele888]

Lillian回去住公寓之後，還安全嗎？

[@LillianChiu101]

應該還ok~最近幾乎每天都有政府的檢查員做各種評估, 希望不會再有怪事了不然真的會嚇xD

我家前陣子水管也破修了三天才好，家裡搞得跟工地一樣，完全懂妳崩潰的心情，但妳大概比我崩潰十倍，因為我們家是沒漏水是漏到別人家！撐住～以後真的要找水電沒問題的地方！

I mean it's just beer but the thought of grabbing things that are not yours regardless of what it is......is yikes!

[@LillianChiu101]

i know! it's not the beer itself but the idea that someone just casually opened my fridge and drank my things T.T
