The following podcast is a Dear Media production. Hello everyone. It is Thursday yet again. If you guys are watching this on YouTube. Hello. Yes, I know I look extra beautiful today because I was watching Bella Hadid's little makeup tutorial with Vogue. You know when they do a little get ready with me, like sharing my beauty secrets on Vogue and I was getting ready while watching that and I just unconsciously started following her makeup tutorial.
Ezekiel King
So.
Bretman Rock
So this is giving very much. My name is Bella. Name is Bella Hadid. That's the vibes. I really feel like models and people that I just love should do more makeup tutorials. Like, I need a makeup tutorial from Beyonce because I know Beyonce's glam would eat down Rihanna. I'm not sure if Rihanna ever did like a makeup tutorial of like her faux fo fo face. I. I feel like that would eat. I just feel like more people should do more makeup tutorials. And honestly, I feel like it ignited a little light in me. And as you guys know, the podcast will take a a break for season one and I really feel like during that break, I kind of want to do a little return on my YouTube channel. I don't know if y' all know, but I did just drop a vlog. It's my Thai Philippine vlog and it actually did really well. Like, well as in like the response that it got, like I really don't care the amount of views but like you guys liked it. Like I thought I was cringy with like the editing because I've never edited a vlog since like 2020. And just all the comments were so nice and so encouraging. Everyone was saying congratulations for the Allure magazine thing. But also most of the comments were just people telling me like, welcome back. And of course I had to make a return for Mother's Day. And speaking of Mother's Day, I will talk about what I did this weekend right after this intro. Rat men to ear. Earth to Bretman girl, you already know who it is.

Before I move on, I just want to mention that the baddest radio is having a cutesy little spring cleaning on our merches. So from May 9th all the way down to the end of the month, our merch is up to 50 off. So make sure you guys come and check it out. Links will be in the descriptions down below. And we are back. If you guys are watching this and you're a mother, happy belated Mother's Day. And if you are just mother adjacent or mother somehow, happy Mother's Day to you too. I was getting a lot of happy Mother's Day messages because of my six dogs and my 32 chickens. So you know, I am very much mother. So back to last week. This week I did a little family garage sale. I call it the Bretton Rock Garage Sale where everything is free. 99. It's usually I. It's usually after my spring cleaning I'll invite like my family over to look through some of the stuff that I don't want anymore and they more than often take about 98% of it and then the rest I just donate or throw away because some of them are trash. But with that being said, let me read you guys a journal from this week. I have been lacking my journaling skills lately, but whatever, it just means I'm having so much fun. May 12 I had a great week this week. I finally got around to cleaning out my closet and going through my storage so I can have my annual Bretman Rock Garage Sale, which I just said for the family. And by family I really mean my mom and my Auntie Sasaeng. And my Auntie Sasaeng is actually Ms. K's mom. So Ms. K is not here today. But I know I have two mics and that will be addressed in a few seconds. Let me keep reading. I love doing it. Not just because I get to actually share things with my family, but because my family gets to come over and we get to hang out after and just waste a day in my house. We also played bingo after and the winner gets to keep an extra my extra Labubus because I got the I just got the Labubu Big into Energy collection, the newest ones and they sent me seven and I got two dupes. So Kat got one of them because she requested and then the other one was auctioned out for the bingo night. It was happy that was auctioned Out. And then the one that you got.
Kat
Was loyalty, I think.
Bretman Rock
Loyalty, loyalty, loyalty. It was also Mother's Day weekend. If there's something Mother's Day taught me is that my mom would rather get money than anything else in the world, which is honestly a mood hashtag relatable. And honestly, same. So that's what I got her. And that was the tiawi. So, yeah, I had a garage sale this week. It was so much fun. All of the kids came. We also played bingo. Like I said, oh, my God. I don't want to sound like a broken record, but we also played bingo. We had labubus. But also I had an extra beige luggage, and my cousin won it. No, I think Princess wanted.
Kat
Jeanette won it.
Bretman Rock
Oh, my cousin. My. My. My friend Jeanette wanted actually. So that's good because, I mean, my family also got so much luggages from me from the actual garage sale. So I'm glad my. One of my friends got a luggage. I also want to plan a Pride episode with my friends. I have two friends that I'm thinking of in particular, Nikki and Jeanette. I know you bitches are watching this. We need to do a Pride video together with Ms. K. Because I need y' all to know I only hang out with the girls and the gays. Like, that's all I hang out with. And what else did we do this week, Kat?
Kat
That was Saturday. The actual day. Sunday, Mother's Day. I was at home, and you were here with Justice.
Bretman Rock
Oh, yeah. Well, Justyce was just over this weekend. We had just a cute little do nothing day, which is what we wanted to do on our Sunday. Besides, like, go and visit my mom. We literally just stayed back and did nothing. And something that we've been obsessed with in this household is the Monopoly game. Nobody takes it more seriously than Kat. I feel like I have to constantly remind her these are not real properties and money, girl. Like, I don't know why you're yelling at everybody, but that. I mean, I don't want to skip the product of the week, but that is probably my product of the week, because we've just been playing it nonstop, literally every day. And there's a cute little story behind that. Actually, when we were in El Nido shooting the BLK shoot, my stylist Brian had a friend that was also in Southeast Asia, and we kind of just like, invited him to come. We're like, girl, you're already in the same sea as us. Just come over. So he ended up coming and spending the weekend with us, and he Brought the Monopoly game, and that's when we were taught how to play it. And when we got home, he sent us little Monopoly, the actual game cards as a thank you, and we've just been playing it ever since. Kat, how do you feel about the Monopoly game?
Kat
You can't even talk about it. It's so amazing. And it's a lot of. It's like luck and chance, but so much of it is strategy.
Bretman Rock
Yeah.
Kat
Like, the beginner's luck. That's luck. You know what I mean? But once you get into it and once you learn things and you're strategizing it, like, oh, it just takes over your mind.
Bretman Rock
Yeah. We've had, like, game night for five days in one week.
Kat
Yeah.
Bretman Rock
And, like, literally, it's either my friends are coming over or if no one wants to come over, which I understand because I live in the boomies. It's just Kat and I like, going for hours. But anyways, what else have I done this week that I need to talk about?
Kat
I really enjoyed that vlog. I love that vlog so much.
Bretman Rock
Oh, my gosh. My vlog. I mean, yeah, I was saying. I was. I think I'm going to do a week in my life video, but I think I want to do it after this week because we still have to do a bunch of, like, putting things away. And I don't want to make a vlog where it's literally me just, like, trying on clothes and putting things in the stuff. I want to do one where it's, like, my actual. Like, how an actual week of my life goes. And then. But before that, I think I want to do a makeup tutorial because I had so much fun doing my makeup today, and I'm like, oh, my God, this is what it's all about. This is truly what it was all about in the very first place. And I feel like that first vlog that I put up truly, like, reinvigorated my love for YouTube and, like, editing and, like, the hunger of YouTube. And I cannot wait for my little return.
Kat
Like, your. Your editing is so amazing. Like, it's so you. And it makes it. It makes it so much better watching it, honestly.
Bretman Rock
Oh, my God. Period. I probably. After a couple videos, I probably will probably want to hire an editor because editing things. Oh, girl. Editing things makes me want to pull out my hair. And also, just because, like I said, I haven't edited in a couple of years. I feel like I was relearning a lot of the things, but also, I was on one while I Was editing, and I had so much fun as well. So maybe I just need to be on one every time I edit. Yeah. I think it's time to bring in our guest of the week. So our guest the week is here today because his mom couldn't make it today because she is out working. Princess is a working mother. And I was like, let me take one of your kids off your plate today because, one, I'm bored, and two, Kat and I are just, like, running around cleaning around the house today and, like, putting things back. So I was like, I feel like we could handle a child today. And also, Ms. K couldn't make it because her car is still very much broken. So get well soon, Ms. K's car. And without further ado, we have Ezekiel King. Come in. Say hi, guys.

Bretman Rock
You want to be a brown butterfly? Well, a brown butterfly is a moth. You know what a moth is?
Kat
Oh.
Bretman Rock
Well, a moth is like a fat butterfly. And they usually fly at night and they're brown and they're big.
Kat
They're the worst.
Ezekiel King
I don't want that one.
Bretman Rock
Well, that's what you want to be.
Ezekiel King
And I want to be the blue one.
Bretman Rock
You know, Grandma Mercy, my mom. So, you know, sometimes she believes that if you see a moth, that means it's somebody that died in your family before.
Ezekiel King
Oh.
Bretman Rock
That'S in Filipino culture. Okay, E, are you done talking? Okay, E, you can go back to Auntie Cat now. All right, you guys. And we are back. That was a cutesy little break with E. He want to go and play. He was so excited on his way, wasn't he? So excited, yeah.
Kat
He couldn't stop talking in the car.
Bretman Rock
He wanted to be in here. He was even telling Prince Test that he was so excited to come back on the pod. But then when he sat here, he's like. And I think that's just how they are. Like, even Cleo, like, so excited to come back in here. But every time we do try to film with her, she's, like, mute. And I. I guess it's just, you know, camera shy. Just camera shy girlies. But I love how they're slowly starting to get more comfortable in the camera. And I can't wait for their. Both of their return on Season two. With that being said, I kind of want to talk about my video last week with Justice. I love that you guys were so supportive. I was, like, kind of nervous because he is very shy. And I think you guys saw the video of him watching his. The episode back to make sure he didn't look so shy. And it was the cutest thing ever. But also so many bitches had so many things to say on TikToks. One in particular. Yeah, well, there was just like, one that I was just like, girl, you are thinking about it too fucking much. How would you feel if your boyfriend didn't post you as much as you posted him? Which I truly don't agree with because I feel like me and justice post each other around the same time. Like, even though he doesn't really post that much, I'm like, girl, there's couples out there where one doesn't post the other or they don't even post each other at all. Where, like, there's sometimes where I'm like, I. I get shocked that people are even dating each other because they don't post each other. And I'm just like, I don't know. How do you feel about it when if your boyfriend didn't post you as much as you posted him?
Kat
I think it's just so different for everybody. Like, everybody's. Everybody's take on it is so different. But for me personally, I would be like, oh, babe, like, I kind of post you more than you post me. But I wouldn't take it so hard, you know, because some people just aren't.
Bretman Rock
On social media, and justice isn't really on social media as much as I am. Like, literally, I'm quite literally the influencer one. So obviously I'm gonna be posting more. He does. But even if you, like, look at our post, like, our. Both of our last six posts since making this video, we posted each other twice each. So I'm like, you know, and I'm not like, keeping tabs or anything, but when somebody said that, I was like, girl, we don't even.
Kat
Did they say about him or you, though?
Bretman Rock
They say that I post him more than he posts me.
Kat
What?
Bretman Rock
And I was. And I'm just like, that's crazy. I would also cringe if I was everything but justice posted. Like, and they're calling him an attention. And I'm like, girl, that's literally the last thing. If anything, he. The reason why we didn't be really make the video till now is because, like, there was no pressure on, like, if he Wanted attention. He would want to be on the podcast every day. But yeah, literally we couldn't. And also, it's just like, this is exactly what I meant on the episode where I was like, you people will really feel like they have the rights to say anything once you give them access to it. And that's just the bullet that I bit. You know what I mean? Like, I posted my mans and you guys are going to be making comments about it, but at the same time, I will say I love the people that see right through our relationship and like, just see it for how it is like, and don't really think about it too fucking far. Like, people are like making think pieces about other people's relationship that I truly am. Just like, okay, I don't really care because you're not really, like, you're not in the bed with us.
Kat
I think even from my last video with you, there were so many comments of people being saying like the most outlandish things where I'm just like, I don't even know where you got that from. So it's just.
Bretman Rock
So, yeah, we should address some of these because I know you've been thinking about it often ever since that video came out even. I was just like, how do people come up with such stories? Like, full on stories as if they've known you. The wildest one was like, oh, Cat, I'm pretty sure Kat stalked Bretman and like, tried to work her way up into, like, working for him. And I'm just like, well, I was the one that hired Kat. It's not like she came to me and asked, like, was asking for a job. I was like, I was literally the one that offered the job to her.
Kat
It was crazy because there were so many nice comments. There's so many people being like, y' all are just mean for no reason. But there were just like some comments where I did comment back because I was just kind of like, okay, I don't mind when people say, like, oh, you're picking on Princess. Because I'm like, whatever. That's between me and Princess.
Bretman Rock
And Yeah, and I feel like you guys are forgetting that her and Princess, she was Princess's first assistant. They've actually, like, worked together longer than we've had up to that point. Because you've worked for her for two years and you've been. Oh, wait, no, actually, no.
Kat
I worked for her for a year.
Bretman Rock
And a half and then me for two and a half. Now you.
Kat
You're almost three years.
Bretman Rock
Oh, yeah. This upcoming July. Yeah, but you Guys spent so much time together because you guys actually lived together for that year and a half and you were taking care of his kids. And like, you guys don't even understand the type of relationship Princess and Kat has. They're like sisters. Like, like, I remembered on E's birthday, Kat, I mean, I remember on E's birthday, Princess texted you, like, oh, it's our son's birthday.
Kat
Yeah.
Bretman Rock
Because, like, Kat was truly there so much for Princess's kids. Not just for Princess, but for kids as well. And it just goes to show how people will create narratives in their head without knowing anything. Like, and that's just how their relationship has always been because they've lived together.
Kat
Yeah. Like, and it's like, even if you put the game aspect into it, we're also competitive. And Brett knows I'm so competitive. Like, I. We talk about Monopoly. I'm so competitive. And people are like, I don't like how she's calling her stupid. She's shushing her. And I was like, I was helping the baby that's off camera and calling people stupid like that. Like, you obviously don't have a friend that you're like, oh, my God, you're so stupid, bitch. Like, you know.
Bretman Rock
Yeah. I'm like, girl, if you guys could see how I speak to my fucking friends. I'm so fudgeing glad. Like, that one you hating are not my friends. Because, girl, you would never, you could never handle like, a real ass friend like me. You know what I mean? Like, because I, I love my friends so much to a point where, like, if. If one of my friends was lacking in a certain department, I'm the type of like, get your together. And if you get hurt by people trying to get encourage you to be a better person, then don't be my friend. Please, please, please don't even watch my videos. Like, if you get hurt by simple feedbacks or like, simple play, like, please don't even watch my videos because, girl, you're not even gonna handle being my friend. So. Yeah, and we're not trying to address hate. Like, girl, you can. You will forever comment on whatever you want to comment on, but at the end of the day, it, yeah, it is what it is.
Kat
It is what it is. And I only was like, gonna come back comment on the ones that were taking a little too far and started saying, like, just lies, I'm sorry, rumors. And like, I was like, okay, there.
Bretman Rock
Which one in particular?
Kat
There was this one, this girl. She was like, I think it's strange that one she moved to Hawaii. Two, she stalked Ms. K's nail tech and started working for her for free. And I was like. I was like, those aren't true at all. I was like, that's not.
Bretman Rock
Because you didn't even know that was Ms. K's nail tech for a year later. Yeah, years later. Because Ms. K doesn't go to her anymore.
Kat
Yeah, like, at the time, she saw her, like, a couple times, and I saw her a couple times, and I was paying for my services. And then all of a sudden, she was like, posting, like, oh, I just need help. And I'm like, oh, I can help you, girl. Like, I'm not doing anything. And I was working for her. She was paying me. And I was just kind of, like, taken aback by it. And I was like, oh, that's. That's not true. And I think I. I think my comments were very nice. I was like, if you guys have any questions, you can let me know and I can clear anything up. No one commented anything, though, so.
Bretman Rock
But, yeah, very much that. Stop making shit up.
Kat
I think that goes on to what you were saying, though, about you and Justice. Did you finish that? Yeah, because, like, people. Because I saw that with my own eyes. Which is another reason why I like. I like to not be in the spotlight is because I'm just like, oh, girl, y' all be doing the most. So I feel for justice when it comes to that. And I know justice is so sensitive.
Bretman Rock
Like, I know why I'm like, babe, don't read the comment. Yeah, because people will make up the weirdest things. And on top of that, let me fucking say something. I got so much Texas the past two and a half days asking me if I'm engaged because some guy on Tick Tock made a video about how, oh, I'm gonna play this. Brettman. No, it was like, con. I don't know what it was, the wording, but it was like, breaking news. Bretman Rock is getting married to this song, and it's his song playing in the background. And I get it's him trying to promote his song, but I'm just like, one, I'm not here to, like, make comment on anybody's motherfucking music career, but if it's a song that's playing in the background of that video, I don't think I would ever play that on my wedding day. It's not really my vibes of songs. And two, I get that you're just trying to promote a thing, a show, your songs, but there's other ways to do it without, like, trying to, like, lie or, like, make up a rumor. Because, like, now I'm really just annoyed of people thinking that I'm getting married because I do always have a finger on my ring. And it's because when I bought my first Cartier ring, I was a size 8. And I'm a size, like, 9 now, but I'm a size 8 on my ring finger. And ever since then, every time I buy a ring online, I just buy size 8 or 8.5 just because I know it will fit my ring or my pinky finger. And most of the time, I like to just wear a ring on my finger, knowing that. Wait, before I. Before I lose my train of thought. No, I am not getting married. Two, I know I would not play that song in my wedding. And three, girl, if that's how you want to promote your songs, more power to you. But I ended up having to block the guy because I'm just, like. I was just so over it. I really was just like, girl, even some people on my team were asking me if I'm engaged. Like, bitch, I share so much of my life. Like, trust me, me being engaged would be one of the first things that you guys would know if it ever came down to it. And. And two, I would never get engaged with someone or. And justice knows this. Girl. Like, we are not getting married until we're going. Until we can go half in our wedding. And knowing a bad bitch like me, like, I'm gonna want at least two weddings. One will be in Hawaii, and one will be in the Philippines. So until a man can go half with me in a wedding, don't even bother asking to be engaged. Okay? And before y' all f. Cking say anything, I already had this talk with justice, you know, because that's who I'm actually dating, not the Internet, period, period. With that being said, I feel like.
Kat
This episode's addressing things.
Bretman Rock
Yeah, let me address a couple things, because I will not go into season two with you people with rumors and with targets on our backs. No, girl. All that. All the lies ends. All right, since we've addressed a couple of hate and a couple of the rumors, let's talk about some things that are going on this week that I've been obsessed with. When I got back home from the Philippines, the first question that Kat asked me was, how do you feel about gnarly? And I was like, wait, The Cat's Eye song? And, I mean, I don't want to flex on anybody because I do feel like I am Better than everyone sometimes. But I've loved Gnarly from the first listen.
Kat
Did you really?
Bretman Rock
Yes, I did.
Kat
Okay.
Bretman Rock
Yes, I did. Well, I wasn't hating on it, like, how the Internet was. I saw the vision from the listen, and then when I saw the music video, I saw the vision, and then when I saw the dances, that's truly when I saw the entire vision. But when I first heard Gnarly, I was like, I could get behind this. Like, literally. I mean, I will say the Tesla reference didn't have to be there, because I'm just like. Because even me as a Tesla owner, I have not taken my Tesla out for.
Kat
Oh, yeah, you have it.
Bretman Rock
No, girl, I'm, like, so ashamed. I feel like I'm gonna get egged if I drive my Tesla. Public question. If I drove my Tesla around, would y' all egg me? Leave in the comments down below, because I wouldn't even really even fight you if you egged my car. I would be like, you know what? Valid. You ate that. You ate that. Matter of fact, pass me an egg. Let me egg my own fucking car.
Kat
You need those stickers. It's like, what's the same? Fuck Elon Musk.
Bretman Rock
Fuck Elon Musk. I'm just driving this until my lease ends. But, yeah, I did, like, gnarly from the first listen. But truly, I get what everyone is saying about how they didn't get it until the dance videos came out.
Kat
That was me. But the first time I listened to it was the music video, and I was like, I love this whole music video. But I was like, I don't know about the song. And then, yeah, the third lesson, I was like, I think.
Bretman Rock
I think the reason why I liked it from the first listen is because they were teasing a lot of that part on their socials. And so that was the part that I really like. I was like, oh, this is catchy. Like, this is like open Gangnam Style.
Kat
Like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bretman Rock
You know what I mean? Like, I was like, Gangnam Style. Like, it was just, like, one of those things that you just can't stop repeating.
Kat
Mm.
Bretman Rock
And I was like, I can't wait for the actual song to drop. And when the song dropped, I was like, oh, my gosh, I see the vision. And I think I saw the vision really fast because before I saw the full song dropped, I had saw the. I had saw the TikTok of the original version of it of, like, the actual writer. And I think it was a chain smokers. And yeah, I. I saw the vision. Girl, I saw the motherfucking vision.
Kat
It's ahead of us all.
Bretman Rock
It truly was. And I really can't wait for this next era of Cat's Eye. I just been craving more like girly pop and girl group things. So I'm very excited to see what Cat's Eye has come with. I also watched their 45 minute stream with Pokimane where she got them like Van Cleef bracelets.
Kat
I saw that.
Bretman Rock
And speaking of get Ready with me, I also saw their Get Ready with Me and girl, I've just been obsessed with them lately. Drag Race All Stars has also been back season 10 and I can't wait for this season. It's really, really giving. So far I've only watched the first two premiere episodes and AJ is killing it. Irene is killing it, and I just can't wait for the rest of the season to come out. I've also been obsessed with RuPaul's social medias lately. He's just been so unhinged and just like so random. I love how you just never know what to expect with RuPaul and I love it. Another person that I've also been obsessed with online is Ms. Vanilla Mace. The first video that I saw of her was her unboxing the Christmas skull Pandas and I just had to repost it because, well, I don't want to spoil anything, so spoiler alert. But on the video she was talking about how she didn't want a specific skull panda and that's literally what she got. And she got so mad that she went to go grab another one and she got the same exact one. And I literally couldn't stop cackling because I don't want to flex on anybody, but I can't relate. Like, I'm the type of bitch that get everything I want on on surprise boxes. I don't know if it's just my energy. The angels and the Labubus can hear you, so never say which ones you don't want because the popmart gods will give you exactly what you don't want. If you want to trick them, be like, I don't want the secret at all. Like, I don't want a small loan of a million dollars. But I've just been obsessed with Vanilla Maze. I also think she's the reason why I've been falling in love with YouTube again just because her vlogs have just been my comfort vlogs lately. I I think I've watched all of it at this point and I just can't wait to see her come up. She was also on Drew Alfuallo's podcast. And I haven't watched the whole thing yet, but just from the bits and pieces that I watch on TikTok. So good. What else?
Kat
There's a new season of fallout coming out. There is December of this year, I think.
Bretman Rock
Oh.
Kat
You should watch that with justice. Yeah, that'd be new.
Bretman Rock
Speaking of justice, because we spoke about him earlier, we were upstairs just, like, doing nothing, and then he goes, babe, I really feel like it's. I really feel like we don't do as many cute things as we used to before. Like, when we first started dating, we would do water balloon fights and we would make, like, inflatable pools. And I literally was like, well, babe, we also just came back from Coachella, A whole vacation in the Philippines, and we're also about to go to a whole vacation again for our one year anniversary. I'm like, we can't do cute things every week, girl. Like, I literally. I'm like, girl, I just love doing nothing with you. And it made me kind of like. I was like, I don't know, it made me, like, overthink, I guess, because I'm just like, yeah, do we really not do anything cute anymore? But I was like, it snapped you back real quick. And I'm like, girl, let me take. Let me take a breather. Like, doing cute things every week. I would love to, but, like, there's some weeks that I just don't want to do anything. So. Yeah, that was like a weird conversation.
Kat
So relatable.
Bretman Rock
I was like, girl, calm down. Like, we just came back from trips. Like, yeah, I. And the last thing I want to be doing right now is literally blowing up.
Kat
I was just doing that whole. That was not easy. Blowing it up. Getting the hose.
Bretman Rock
Blowing it up, getting the hose. Waiting hours, Waiting for hours. I'm like, girl, just wait till we go to a big island, Please. Please.
Kat
That's so funny.
Bretman Rock
Also, I just want to say thank you guys so much for all of the love on the Casetify case collab. It is doing amazing and I'm so glad that casefi is sending them out to so many of local influencers and just like, people that I love at home. I've never felt so much love from the local community on a launch before. And hopefully, hopefully, fingers crossed, I can bring the souvenir shop in Waikiki and have like a meet and greet. I feel like that would be so fun. Casey, let me know. I will do a whole meet and greet at Waikiki for you. But, yeah, thank you guys so much for all the love on it. My favorite thing about it was designing it. Oh. And just for proof that I've been working on it for two years, I have the official the baddest XK Safy idea page right here of all of my ideas that I wanted to do. And some of these were a little unhinged. So I get why Casetify couldn't do some of them. Like, I wanted one to have, like, a rainbow caster in it so there's something you could hold up against the sun and it casts a rainbow. I wanted, like, crystals in the settings, but maybe. Maybe for collab number two, we could do that. But, guys, I was really cooking it up. And this was around April of last year. This was, like, around April 1st, girl. And it's so amazing how it actually came into fruition. Like, and it just goes to show how long, like, these things take and how rewarding it is when it finally comes out.
Kat
Like, I can't wait to get mine.
Bretman Rock
