MY NEW LIFE: MOVING HOUSE, NEW GIRLFRIEND, AND BIG CHANGES!

MY NEW LIFE: MOVING, A NEW GIRLFRIEND, AND BIG CHANGES!

Hey everyone, it’s Lou! Today I’m super excited to share some major life updates with you all. From moving to a new place to starting a new relationship with my girlfriend, everything’s been moving in such a positive direction—and honestly, I couldn’t be happier.

The Journey to Our New Home

"Are we recording? Okay, we’re rolling!" That’s what I said as we kicked off filming this video with our new camera. My girlfriend and I were on our way to our new home, and we just couldn’t hold back the excitement. The road felt so familiar—I used to come through here back when I worked at 911 and lived in Jersey. Now, it’s leading us to a brand-new beginning.

“Back to J-Y-C,” I shouted as we passed by the Oculus and the area near the Twin Towers. I used to hate this route, but today, it feels totally different. We joked about not shopping at Food Town anymore—that store was part of our routine for a while.

Standing in the middle of the bustling neighborhood, camera in hand, I felt like a tourist—but I didn’t care. We were capturing a huge moment. “We really made this happen,” I told my girlfriend. And it’s true—we dreamed it, and now it’s real.

Looking Back

After getting to the new building safely, we brought in a few things and headed back to our old place to finish packing up. We still had a few days left at the old apartment, so we used that time to plan ahead—including booking a Pilates class for Tuesday.

About a month ago, I took a trip to Tennessee and had such a great time there. I genuinely fell in love with the city—and the person I was with. We’re both homebodies, but we pushed ourselves to step out of our comfort zones and explore. My friend put in so much effort to show me around the city, and I’m super grateful for that.

When we got to Downtown Nashville—aka D-town—it gave me serious NYC or Philly vibes. The energy was all there: long lines outside the BBQ joints, people dressed to the nines in cowboy gear, and karaoke bars everywhere. “If you’ve ever been to Downtown Nashville, drop a comment below and let me know your favorite spots!” I asked my viewers.

Fine Dining & Fashion

After the trip, I filmed a TikTok about caviar and wanted to share the experience with my YouTube family. I paired it with Jamaican-style fried chicken and barbecue, and let me tell you—it was unbelievably good! “If you’re thinking about trying caviar, I say go for it. Worst case? You don’t like it, and that’s totally okay!”

After the meal, I started getting ready for Jessica’s fashion show. I decided to take the subway instead of calling a car because the prices were just outrageous. I had a whole plan: wear a coat to cover my outfit and carry my heels in a bag until I got there. I also tied up my hair to keep the style fresh before arriving.

The fashion show was absolutely stunning! It was the 2025 collection, and they were even filming it for Netflix. The theme was “Heaven and Hell,” with a vibe that shifted between light and dark. My sister Jessica walked in a dress that was nearly impossible to move in—she could only take tiny steps! “I remember her saying during rehearsals that the dress was tight, but I didn’t expect that,” I thought to myself as I watched her strut. If you want to check her out, look up Project Runway—she’s been on there!

Goodbye Harlem, Hello New Life

The moving process wasn’t as stressful as my girlfriend and I expected. We hired movers, but we also moved quite a few things ourselves.

Looking out the window of our old Harlem apartment one last time, I got emotional. “Harlem, we’ve got no complaints about you. It’s just time to move forward. We love you, and we’ll miss you,” I whispered as we walked out.

And now we’re here—settled into our new place, complete with a modern gym right in the building! When I say we’ve been blessed with this new space, I mean it. I’m starting new routines, building a deeper relationship with myself, and committing to a whole new lifestyle.

My New Fitness Journey

“I’ve never been a gym girlie,” I confessed to the camera. Honestly, I never needed to work out before—everyone in my family is super skinny. But now that I’m getting older, it’s time to start taking care of my body in a different way.

I’m so thankful to have access to a great gym just a few floors down. And even better? My girlfriend is a personal trainer! She’s like a bionic woman—so strong, so disciplined, and she never gives up. She’s been incredibly patient and encouraging with me. “New body loading,” I laughed, thinking about what’s to come.

If you remember the shot at the start of the video where we were writing down our goals on paper, one of them was daily fitness. We’re rotating our schedule: gym, Pilates, gym, Pilates—and weekends off. But honestly, I’ve been so hyped that I don’t even want to take weekends off! My girlfriend has to remind me that rest is part of the process, but I’m just so eager—I want the toned body now!

Go to the gym when you feel ready. Don’t let anyone pressure you—when the time is right, you’ll know.

My life is going through some big changes—moving, a new relationship, and a whole new set of habits—and I’m so glad I get to share it all with you.

See you next time!
