Colab with TJ and feed meimei

[@lizlorenzsonn9999]

So so looking forward to more Meimi/TJ collabs

[@tyv3229]

Sooo cute, TJ! You made such great use of the floor space. For 700+ sq ft, you made it look way bigger. And that laundry room/closet! 😲😍

[@CupofTJ]

Thank you so so much 🥹❤️❤️❤️✨!!

[@BoboEllieBuns]

The LA view is amazing! Love love the natural lighting!!

[@minniec.9127]

TJ, keep yr woodblock kitchen island. It's perfect where it is. Use it as a dining table, dining with a view! Would love to see a night view when the lights are on!

[@sadiemae9446]

So happy for you in your new home! As someone who has moved a lot, keep the table from NYC you love so much. It will always remind you of that time! you can find a space for it wherever you are. Can't wait for you get more roles!

[@lilypad342]

Yes! This is a beautiful heartwarming video! The pride of your culture and the information and amazing food! I love it! Thank you!!

[@chloeshih]

ohmy goodness! your place is so lovely! i also love your coffee table. really hope you get to keep it after the couch arrives! also the view you have in LA is STUNNING!! the lighting is gorgeous!!

[@Kristin_Amico]

Love it. I moved from NYC to LA about 2 years ago and I LOVE all the sunshine I get now, and my new place is nearly double the the size of my old Queens apt, but only about 15% more expensive.

[@stephanieglennon1414]

Yay! Looking forward to your Southern California content soon! I also moved to LA with my two cats from Brazil last year. 😻

[@_sammydb]

Really liked this video format! I had no idea how small NYC apartments were and as someone who lives where $2700 can get you more space (no hate!) it’s really cool to see how creative you get with the space PS - I met you way back when in Davis because my roommate was in your sorority haha. Small world. Loving your channel!

[@TubeDeviant]

I like the layout of your studio..!! I LOVE that laundry/closet/storage space..!!

[@jadelynn1703]

Your apartment is just so cute and flows so well. It's also fun and easy. You seem like an amazing fun person

[@lexxirai]

Congratulations! So that means that we can look forward to many videos from LA ❤

[@janelo2711]

Long time watcher, first time commenter :D Congrats TJ! Loved the apartment tour and so well deserved x

[@chibichumon]

I really enjoyed this! As a city planner I love to hear peoples’ experiences comparing different living situations/regions. I believe people will be super interested in moving around post pandemic.

[@ricedumpling8728]

Such a lovely place TJ. Enjoy your new home and your new city ! You are a true inspiration :)

[@CupofTJ]

Thank you 🥹❤️❤️

[@jefflee5961]

Perfect combination of living and work area. Love cozy space so much with the beautiful view! Last but not least super cute kitty❤❤❤

[@lenac7655]

You and your kitty babies look very happy there. I love the view, the kitchen and your nice comfy styling. The price at both places is really insane. All the best to you & your new beginning. ❤

[@sairachan7205]

This video just reminded me of why I subscribed to your channel.. your bubbly personality and small jokes make me laugh. Instant perk me up! Congrats on the new space, looks really lovely 😊

[@deborahzmich7140]

You are a ray of sunshine! Can’t wait to see more food videos!❤

[@WarChortle]

I've had a similar litter mat in the past and it's very hard to clean. There are options that are double layered where there is a mesh on top and like a pad on the bottom. This has been the easiest for me. Once the other mat gets dirty no amount of vacuuming, shaking it out, or washing will get it clean.

[@juli31988]

Gorgeous apartment!! Loved this video

[@etblok9359]

Thanks for showing. I love the comparing the 2. Kinda want to see that messy walk in / washer room lol

[@ashleylee5743]

I am so proud of you. I’ve been watching you grow been watching your channel for a long time and you’re not that far from me. I stay in Las Vegas but I have family out there. Hope to see you around. Keep up the good work.

[@sugah0n3y]

[@carlskinner7768]

Welcome to Los Angeles and thank you for the tour. You found a very nice place

[@Han-cj2jp]

Hi TJ, You make your apartment look so big and I love the laundry room. Some apartments don’t have individual laundry machines. Your kitchen is huge. I saw you on tv news cooking. Good luck on your auditions.

[@gailsiangco5599]

Wishing you much success & looking forward to your vlogs ! Take care & enjoy the holidays coming soon !

[@CupofTJ]

Thank you always Gail ❤️!!

[@delilahshields6959]

I enjoy this video very much, love both apts.

[@wawawho18_adventures]

ah snaps u in LA now cool! long time no watch ur videos! glad to see u doing well! thanks for the tour! i enjoyed it!

[@kipjamw]

I didn't know you moved to LA! When I saw that old kitchen, I felt so sad! Lol! So many happy times trying Costco and Trader Joe's Asian foods! (That's all I watch of your videos because I don't like to watch food videos that I won't ever have access to). So looking forward to new hauls in the new kitchen! Maybe now from a market in LA's fabulous Little Tokyo (I have been there but a long time ago) and they must have a great K Town too! I love apartment tours too! It was nice to see the whole NY apartment and what you get for that $$$$!

[@TheJProducti0ns]

Looks pretty worth the price to me! Love the decors as well

[@ACA-kb2vf]

Luv your apartment🤗!! Keep that tall table. Its a keeper!!

[@SparkleberryDreams]

I love your kitty cats! Get 2 scratching posts and put them in the areas you (and they) spend the most time; then they won’t scratch your new couch!

[@MsMariano74]

Love it, love it, love it! Great video as always and congrats to you!

Like your new apartment. Cute and cozy.

[@bellovespengins]

I hope you got your couch by now.. mine took 9 months 🫣 ..so glad you're on this side of the Coast 😊

[@plumicorn]

You can easily put in your floor a little reading corner. A small bench with storage e.g made out of rattan. Ikea has a new rattan bench from the series Tolkning. Would be fitting amazing in your urban boho appartment.

[@CupofTJ]

I looooove these ideas thank you ❤️❤️!!

[@DianAND-5]

Your new LA apt is beautiful!

[@MountaintravelerEddie]

@@CupofTJ wish I could help you. Maybe you can go to my apartment in Belgium, Philippines, Vietnam and my house in Nevada….it can use a woman’s touch Stay beautiful

Hahaha!! I used the same contact paper (white/grey marble) for my kitchen counters & I love it!!! It’s the 4rth time I’ve done it (last 3 apartments) & now my present home so it only took me a couple hours to do it all. Yours looks lovely, your apartments were/are lovely, your kitties 🐈💖🐈‍⬛💖🐾 are lovely & so are you!!

[@CupofTJ]

Thank you DeeDee!!! And gosh I hope I finish the contact paper project soon 😂😂😂

Yes! But I'll be back in NYC pretty often because I'm still auditioning there!

[@juantime9616]

👍 Okay, after seeing the view...I could tell you live in Korea Town. Nice views, cute apartment. (Altadena, Ca here). 💓

[@Walts-Travel]

#1 Let's see what your working wit!! LA in the house!!! 🤩🤩🤩

[@CupofTJ]

Hiii so fast!!

[@zrx1100zz]

Okay here's my hot tip: take your largest cat stretch him out on the floor from the tip of his paw to the tip of his rear paw then go out and buy a vertical scratching post that's about 5 inches longer than that. Then buy some fresh and I do mean fresh catnip and sprinkle it over the post. My mother taught me this who had a Devon Rex cattery. I did this with a number of girlfriends with cats and it always worked. This will give your couch a Fighting Chance 🙄

[@CupofTJ]

OHHHH pro tip!! Tysm!

[@scotttan6377]

Thanks for the tour ! It's very nice like you. Like your white blazer too ! What million dollar view !

[@CupofTJ]

Thank you Scott!!

Welcome to the West Coast. Love your apartment. Enjoy your food shopping / cooking so much ... but am a Japanese Vegan so look at the brands not necessarily the product. Vegan is obvious, but Japanese means I eat sashimi (raw fish). Keep up the happy videos and continue to enjoy life ... I am a fan.

My Walmart pickup sucks. It took them an hour and thirty mins to bring it out. Other people were pulling up, getting helped and leaving all around me yet I was just sitting there with no one even checking up on me.

[@btsdancestudio5691]

Hopefully ypu can buy a great big place next year. They say next year even LA will have some great deals. Right now you can get a very nice place for about 1.1 Million. In LA County like Diamond Bar or (OC) Little Saigon.
