birthday vlog: slice of life, healing my inner child, and realizations about growing up

this vlog was rather short but i want to share with you how i spent my birthday last march 8th. i started the day with a simple lunch date—nothing fancy, just a warm meal shared over laughter and stories. we also went to visit some stores, picked up some cute little trinkets and some other stuff. then ended the day with playing my cats and creating a letter for myself. let this be a reminder that birthdays aren’t about how much you spend but about who you spend them with. hope you'll enjoy this vlog! love, maria ✉️ for collaborations and business inquiries: [email protected] 🪿 follow me on my socials: https://linktr.ee/pagesbymai 📹 timestamps 00:00 intro 00:28 get ready with me 02:25 arrived at the mall 02:43 lunch at din tai fung 04:41 trying gachapon 05:48 photo booth 06:49 kkv store 08:58 fit check 09:15 on the way home 09:23 meet my cats! 10:09 a letter to myself 🛒 product links • leather bowling bag - https://s.shopee.ph/7pfIu21jkH • mini jewelry organizer - https://s.shopee.ph/3AtTLiCcwZ • cat tunnel bed - https://s.shopee.ph/7APdayjZIq 🎶 music all rights reserved to the artists and labels. no copyright infringement intended. rojs.f - fukashigi no carte    • Fukashigi No Carte | Bunny Girl Senpai but...   nawhij - タンポポ    • nawhij - タンポポ   shushubobo - soho cat    • [no copyright music] 'soho cat' background...   nobonoko - tokyo fashion district    • nobonoko - Tokyo Fashion District   shushubobo - the chase by hearts2hearts    • Hearts2Hearts 하츠투하츠 'The Chase' cute ver.   shushubobo - small girl by lee youngji    • lee young ji (이영지) - Small girl cute.ver   daystar - please gather together at animal crossing    • 모여주라..동물의 숲 (Royalty Free Music) | 모동숲st BGM   daystar - may your night be at peace    • ✨샛별 - May your night be at peace✨(Royalty ...   🖇️ tags #birthdayvlog #sliceoflife birthday, march girlie, pisces birthday girl, bday girl, work vlog, after work vlog, working girl, work from home, fashion, get ready with me, shopping, makeup, strolling around mall, online shopping, online stores, organization, organize with me, outfit ideas, pinterest aesthetic, pinterest inspired, get motivated with me, get my life together, getting my life back together, how to be productive, how to be that girl, how to manifest your dream life, lifestyle youtube, saranghoe, annika's leaf, daiz, living alone diaries, living alone, routine after work, beige aesthetic, preppy routine, preppy outfit, work outfit, productive day in my life, productive morning routine, productive vlog, productive weekend in my life, realistic day in my life, realistic day in my life, living in japan, realistic morning routine, that girl vlog, morning routine, self care, self care day in my life, self care morning in my life, spend the day with me, that girl inspired, productive morning routine, ipad air, ipad journaling, stationery haul, aesthetic stationery, journaling, letter to myself, playing with cats, cat pet, cute cat, buying stationery, grocery with me, otaku, gachapon, gacha, anime, japanese inspired, oshi no ko, action figures, what i eat in a day, weekly vlog
