SLICE OF LIFE | Jennaye (Trash)

Jennaye (pronouns: she/he/they), also known as “tinyandtrash” or simply “Trash” (we’re not kidding), is a Vietnamese-Australian variety Twitch streamer known for playing competitive games like VALORANT, but also dabbles into story-driven and horror games. Her streams are a fun and inclusive space, complete with a chat fit for the girls, the gays, and the theys. From live slam dunks to dance sessions, there’s no telling what you’ll see when you enter a “Trash” stream.

Btw, if “Trash” doesn’t ring a bell, maybe “Lord Farquaad” will? 🤔

Viv: Okay so before we start, I just wanna say

You know what’s really funny? I think this is the first time we’re like…chatting with each other. Like, ever.

Tiny: Haha yeah! I think we’ve mostly just talked on Twitter LOL

Viv: yeah! I remember when you used to post Viet stuff, and I was like “oh that’s relatable!” and you were like “Yeah!”

Tiny: HAHAHAHHA yeah that’s how we BONDED!

And we’ve been together since then. It’s nice. :D 

Viv: It is! Especially since you’re all the way in Australia.

Tiny: Yeah!

Viv: I hope the concert you went to was fun, by the way! You definitely earned it after finishing a Pride Campaign with Riot. I couldn’t make it to the full livestream, but I did manage to catch a few minutes of it.

Tiny: haha that’s okay!

Viv: But it was just SO COOL to see it hosted on your channel 😀

Tiny: Yeah! I think they gave me the full creative direction for it. They were like, “you have full total control, we’ll do whatever you want to do” and i was like “Okay! That’s so nice of them.” 

‘cause RIot’s a big company, so I was really scared. I was thinking to myself, “What if they don’t like my ideas?” 

But they were all so chill and nice, they were like, “Just do whatever you want and we’ll just back you up.” and  i was like “Okay cool!” hahaha

We ended up doing a little podcast with two LGBTQIA+ devs from Riot and gave them the space to talk about their experiences at Riot and working on VALORANT. It was a cool conversation to hear and it was nice to get their perspectives on working as LGBTQIA+ devs in the gaming industry.

And it was very positive so…you go, RIot! haha

Viv: Yeah! I watched the VOD after you finished—fortunately it wasn’t deleted. I heard you had some…issues with some VODs earlier.

Tiny: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Yeah….it is what it is.

Viv: LOL

SOMEHOW that was the only VOD that wasn’t deleted, so I’m glad I was able to catch it.

I thought it was really cool that you were sitting with all of them. And like, you’re absolutely right. We don’t really see a lot of people who look like us on the backend of game dev, let alone in big titles like VALORANT and League. So it was really nice for you to spotlight a couple of them.

Tiny: Yeah! It was a really nice conversation. It’s super chill, just like this one. We all got along and no one was really nervous, so it worked out really well.

Viv: Haha l like that too. Even in competitive games, I like when people have fun. If the community was more like that, I would definitely jump into VALORANT instantly.

Tiny: Yeah no the VALORANT community is…a lot LOL

Viv: HAHAHAH 

Tiny: it be like that.

Viv: BUT

This isn’t your first time working with Riot, right?

Tiny: yeah!

Viv: I remember you had a feature that was just you playing VALORANT

Tiny: Oh my god yeah, that was WAY BACK

Viv: yeah when I saw you back I was like “WHOA”

It’s so crazy

Do you know how rare it is to see another Vietnamese non-binary person in games?

Tiny: RIGHT

That is TRUE

Viv: It’s so nice because it’s like…I feel seen knowing that there’s someone out in the gaming world who looks like me

Tiny: hahahaha AWWWW

That makes me happy, that’s what i want. That’s what i want to do on social media and streaming. I just want to show representation, so i’m glad to hear that.

Viv: I’m happy to hear that!

like in that event, you worked with them to just play VALORANT on their channel. 

LIKE HOW FUCKING COOL IS THAT?

Tiny: Yeah that was so cool! I got to go up against five other Rioters, so it was really nice. That one we…

It wasn’t like a podcast or anything, that one was just them highlighting different creators. We all had an hour each to play games, so I chose to play VALORANT with the devs. From there they rounded up a team of six people, I rounded up my team of six, and then just played customs and chilled.

I think I was the only one that did that. It was fun!

Viv: It’s so awesome! I feel like having more people who make the game play the game is super fun. Especially with other people too. 

People normally think of game devs as people who make the game and fix the bugs and stuff, but they also play games too. They’re people, too.

Tiny: yeah, playing with the devs was a very different experience.

Viv: I don’t know if you’ve worked with other brands, but regardless, I honestly just go to your stream to just have a fun time.

I know clicking in, like…something’s gonna happen. Either you’re gonna chill out or I’m gonna walk in to you talking about Lord Farquaad or something and I’m just gonna be like “idk what the hell Tiny’s doing but it’s funny” LOL

Tiny: HAHAHAHAHAHA

I’m always doing something! Something different, something new. And I think that’s what’s fun about being a variety streamer. I get to do whatever I want and everyone in the chat’s just like, “HELL YEAH, let’s fucking do it!”

Viv: you really put the variety in variety streamer HAHAHA

Tiny: LMAO YEAH

It’s hard. I feel like sometimes it’s stressful to be a variety streamer, because your numbers always go up and down. But it’s whatever, it is what it is. Numbers are always going to be the worst enemy, so you just gotta ignore it.

Viv: It seems like the priority for people is just…it doesn’t really matter about numbers, it’s just about having fun.

Tiny: Yeah, sometimes I think I forget to have fun ‘cause numbers are just the death of me LOL

Viv: Did it make you nervous when you were starting off? I know some people see the viewer count and it scares the shit out of them.

Tiny: YEAH it’s true

But ya kno, it is what it is.

Viv: I know that you play other games too. The last time I watched you, you were playing Thief Simulator, where you did…questionable things LOL

Do you like games like that?

Tiny: HAHAHAHAHAHA

Thief Simulator is fun! Honestly I love simulation games. I don’t know why. I would LOVE to play every simulation game under the sun. 

Viv: How do you feel about Powerwash Simulator?

Tiny: Oh that’s my favourite one.

Viv: *GASP*

Tiny: I LOVE powerwash

It’s SO good!

Viv: it’s also my favourite, It’s one of the only simulator games that i own, because i have that and i also have house flipper

Tiny: omg HOUSE FLIPPER

I fucking love that

Wait can we swear here?

Viv: oh yeah you’re good 

I’m not censoring this shit HAHAHAH

Tiny: HAHAHAHAHAHAH

Okay sweet

Viv: YEAH

But no i love powerwash simulator, house flipper is great

I think i have all of the DLCs for both? 

Tiny: i can spend HOURS on that game and just relax

Also there’s a new game that i’m into. It’s called “colouring pixels”

Viv: Colouring pixels?

Tiny: and it’s FREE

Yeah it’s like a colouring book, but it’s online

It’s a “colour by numbers” kind of thing, it’s so fun. And the music is so relaxing, so i’d spend the night just playing it.

Viv: like off stream?

Tiny: no no ON stream!

Viv: OH

Tiny: YEAH

We’ll all just chill, it’s super good

Viv: so on top of having your chaotic moments on stream, you also have super chill moments. 

The way you treat your variety streams just sounds like you’re just there to have a good time

Tiny: YEAH PRETTY MUCH

I think that’s the important thing is that…you just gotta have a good time. 

Otherwise, it starts eating you up if you’re not having fun. Then your content doesn’t become as fun because people can see that you’re stressed on camera, live on stream. So that ruins the vibe a bit.

Viv: Yeah I notice that with some people

When you’re focused on the streaming aspect, you forget to have fun. So streaming feels more like work, and i don’t think people want to do more work…after work. 

Tiny: Yeah!

Even for me like, now it’s almost like a job. It’s more stressful for me now than when I first started.

Viv: Oh really?

Tiny: yeah

Cause i feel like i have to keep up with so many things now…so many friendships, trends, content, social media platforms

And then if i go ghost even for a bit, i get scared and start thinking stuff like “I’m not good enough” or “are people going to forget me?”

And then the numbers tank. It’s just a vicious circle.

Viv: UGH yeah the grind culture kinda seeps in and you’re like “if i’m not doing THIS, then i’m not doing enough”

Like the productivity thing

Tiny: YEAH

YEAH EXACTLY

Viv: I know that some people I know had this mindset of “if you’re not ‘on’ 24/7, you were not being productive enough.”

Idk how much time you commit to streaming now, but I imagine you probably started streaming for fun rather than have that mindset LOL

Tiny: yeah, but i enjoy it though. It’s still something i wanna do. I just need to..be more productive I guess

Viv: TINY

LOL

Tiny: HAHAHAHA

Viv: I mean if you think about it, rest is pretty productive too. 

Getting some sleep and taking care of yourself, etc

Tiny: yeah that’s true

Viv: But that all said, I think the friends you’ve probably met through Twitch, they know how stressful it is to be a public figure and try to support you how they can

Maybe that’s a good payoff—your community looks out for you the same way you look out for them

Tiny: yeah exactly!

Viv: let’s get into the very beginning when you started streaming btw. How this all started.

Tiny: Oooo alright

Fun times, those were the days LOL

So i first started as an animal crossing streamer

Viv: OH!

Tiny: YEAH 

It was during COVID, I was a COVID baby and started May 2020

Cause i used to watch a lot of Fortnite streamers, so before the streaming started, i played a LOT of Fortnite. I used to play Fortnite EVERY day—it was my favourite game! 

Not now, though LOL

So because of that, i would find streamers on youtube. I used to watch youtube streamers a lot, and from there i got interested. I was like “oh maybe I could do this” because it looks fun

Playing games on the computer, hanging out with people, I was like, “sure. Maybe I’ll do it one day.”

And then animal crossing came out, covid was here, everyone was at home. We were just up all night playing animal crossing for like, who KNOWS how many hours with friends overseas.

So i started streaming for fun because i wanted to show people when my island was open so my friends could come over and we could just hang out and talk or whatever.

Ever since then, people started to find me.

Before all this happened, I had never streamed on Twitch before. I didn’t know what Twitch was, I never watched Twitch streamers, so Idk what I was expecting. People started to find me and i’d be like “hey! People are here!”

And sometimes, when i’m about to end stream, one of them will raid and I’d be like “oh WHAT now??”

Viv: LMAO

Tiny: YEAH I didn’t know what raiding was at the time

I didn’t know ANYTHING about Twitch. I knew NOTHING.

Everything i’ve learned, i learned on my own and from watching other people and other streamers. I just wanted to get to know the platform better. 

And look at me now LOL

A few years later, who would have thought haha

The first few months or so, i was an animal crossing streamer, which was fun! i loved it. I met so many cool people with that, and now I know some of them IRL.

But animal crossing was just not the game that I could keep playing. There’s only so much you can do, you know

So that’s when I started to play different stuff. Then VALORANT and other games came out. From there i was just finding more people every day and just having fun.

Viv: that’s the dream isn’t it?

THAT’S how adults make friends nowadays—you got on Twitch and you play games.

Tiny: HAHAHAHAHA YEAH

Pretty much, i mean that’s how I meet a lot of people nowadays

Viv: that’s super cool 😀

Who’s your favourite animal crossing villager, btw?

Tiny: TUTU

Tutu’s my favourite. She’s so underrated.

How about you?

Viv: Okay so everyone knows me for loving clowns and stuff, so they think I'll say Pietro.

BUT

Recently (and by recently I mean like a week ago)

I discovered PANGO

Tiny: Who’s Pango?

Viv: She’s like this colourful snooty anteater

Tiny: OH!

I’ve never seen her before

Viv: I never even HEARD of her before until she visited my island

She’s like the perfect blend of snooty and fashionable

…Also I’m pretty sure she’s lesbian-coded

Tiny: AYO??

Viv: LISTEN i’m not here to theorize which villagers are queer-coded

But I don’t think any lesbian out there WOULDN’T like Pango

Tiny: Honestly every animal crossing villager is gay, in my opinion

Viv: YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK YOU’RE RIGHT

Miss “Let’s go lesbians!”

Tiny: HAHAHHAHAHA YEAH

Viv: I feel like I’ve heard it before, where did it come from?

Tiny: It’s from a YouTube video!

Viv: OH THE ONE VIDEO WITH THE DUDE THAT’S LIKE “LET’S GO LESBIANS”

Tiny: YEAH YEAH THAT ONE

HAHAHAHAHHA

Viv: HAHAHAHAHA

I hear you say it all the time, so i see it as part of your brand

I saw your tiktok where you used the “Let’s go Lesbians” sound and your transition from long hair to short hair, and your outfit changes too

Tiny: oh my god, the long hair days

It’s DISGUSTING

Viv: I mean my hair’s pretty mid

mid-LENGTH, not mid as in bad

Tiny: HAHAHAHAHA 

I’m dead, dude

Viv: LOL

So I used to have long hair, and it did not fit with me as someone who doesn’t really align with either femininity or masculinity

But THEN

DUDE

I got a wolfcut recently, and once I looked in the mirror I was like “THIS is me.”

“This is MUCH MORE FITTING”

I gotta cut it more often, but it’s worth it.

Tiny: Yo wolf cuts are so in right now, it’s so good

Viv: IT’S SO GOOD

It fits with EVERYTHING in my closet.

But I’ve pondered the thought of short hair. Idk about me tho, but it looks good on YOU

Tiny: OH! Haha aww

Viv: yeah especially when you have it in different colours. How do you pick your colours?

Tiny: well the last one I did was a sub goal. When i went pink buzzcut, that was a sub goal.

Viv: OH so you’ve done more than one colour?

Tiny: Yeah yeah yeah 

So before the last one, every time I dyed my hair was because I wanted to dye my hair, but the last one I did was for a sub goal for a subathon, so that was nice.

Viv: WOW

Tiny: YEAH

And now I’m trying to grow it back to get my mushroom hair

Viv: It looks SO good

Tiny: HAHAH thank you!

It was a wise choice. 

Viv: I think it’s a good choice, yeah! That colour’s nice. The blonde you had before suited you too!

Tiny: Yeah! I really like pink, but like my favourite one was probably the pastel pink that I done like a year ago

I’m always changing my hair, I’m just fucking…obsessed. I get so bored with my black hair LOL

Viv: Hahaha that’s valid! Have you always been a fan of dyeing your hair?

Tiny: Yeah I always like doing something new to my hair.

Viv: I feel like dyeing hair is part of almost every queer person’s identity LOL

Tiny: hahaha yeah everyone’s always commenting on how often I change my hair, but I really like it!

Viv: and it goes with your outfits!

Tiny: I try my best with my fashion.

Viv: At least you save on shampoo

Tiny: OH MY GOSH

TRUEEEEE

Having short hair is so good

But like, my hair grows out so fast when I DO do something to it, so it doesn’t last as long

Viv: OH MY GOD SAME

My hair grows really fast, but it also grows out SUPER thick 

Tiny: OHHH WHAT

REALLY???

Viv: YEAH

So I have to get it thinned out every time I go to the salon

So i’m going to the viet salons and there’s SO much hair that I hear the salon ladies speaking in Viet they’re like “OMG you have so much hair”

Tiny: See I’m the opposite

Viv: REALLY?

Tiny: YEAH 

my hair’s really thin. I wish I had thick hair

Viv: I mean I guess it has its perks.

It takes longer to dry for sure.

Like when I get my hair done, they usually wash it before they cut it

So when they get to the drying part, since my hair’s so thick, the salon lady would use a blowdryer and then pull out a second one from the next station over and give it to me and be like “you’re helping me dry your hair”

And I’m like “oh my god I didn’t pay for this LOL

Tiny: Holy

HAHAHAHA

Viv: Yeahhhhh

But i used to want to have your hair, I wanted it to be thinner

Tiny: Really?

Viv: YEAH

Cause like remember those days when people had the mullet/jellyfish cut? I wanted those

Tiny: LOL damn

You know what? You should do it.

Viv: MMMMmmmmmmm I’ll think about it

I’m comfortable with the wolfcut, but if I want to cut it on a whim, then i’ll do it

ANYWAY BACK TO THE TOPIC OF LESBIANS

I see that it’s a huge part of your brand, so much so that you have a bot called “ledollarbean”

Tiny: HAHAHAHAHAH YES

Das me

I love having the “le$bean” bot on my channel. It’s so funny, some people think it’s real, but it’s just a bot

Viv: What does the bot do?

Tiny: just the usual twitch commands and stuff.

Viv: OH okay GOT IT

It’s so adorable it fits you HAHAHAHA

Tiny: HAHAHA THANK U

Viv: OH BTW I wanted to say

Obviously your main platform is Twitch and then you upload stuff on socials, but I also see you do work with Twitch ANZ

Tiny: AH yes!

Viv: Yeah I see you do a lot with them, and in general I see a lot more spotlighting going on with Twitch ANZ than…global Twitch LOL

Cause it’s usually very…broad

Tiny: Yeah the main Twitch doesn’t really do much outside of events or branded content. It’s not as personable

WIth ANZ, because we’re so small (the partnerships team), we have a lot more to work with. They’re able to do so much more with us, which is nice. Not only do they highlight partners, but they also highlight affiliates, and they let affiliates get involved with subfest and stuff. 

It’s really nice, they really care about their creators. They really do their best to accommodate everyone, so it’s really good that TwitchANZ wants everyone to feel included.

Viv: Global Twitch better take notes

HAHAHAHA

Tiny: LMAO

Viv: I see you promoting them a lot, and with all streamers, you wouldn’t promote something just because. But I feel like with TwitchANZ, they’re promoting you because they want to include you. And that’s what media platforms should be like. 

They should let the creators do their thing, and help with the marketing and stuff.

Tiny: yeah! It’s really nice that twitchANZ works with us and puts us on the front page when needed, and they’re very lenient

I wish all brands could work with us the same way. 

Please, i need money LOL

Viv: LOL

PLS GIVE TINY MONEY

It’d be nice for more streamers to go full-time, if that’s their dream

Tiny: It would be nice, yeah. But it’s hard to be full-time.

At least for me, because I don’t have enough resources

Viv: you know…Vvlid

So streaming’s more of a hobby for you then?

Tiny: Yeah

I mean well…It’s weird. it’s like a half hobby, half not-hobby

I want to “make it”, but at the same time it’s so hard ‘cause it’s so unpredictable and just depends on where your content goes. How it performs on each social platform, how it gets pushed out to each audience, etc

I want to focus more on short-form content, so like TIkTok and YouTube shorts, but it’s so hard to get the views in

It’s SO HARD

Viv: yeah it’s hard cause you don’t know how they’ll perform.

Like one video you could work really hard on might not perform well, but one that you just kinda..shat out your ass gets a million views 

Tiny: HAHAHAHAH YEAH

I’d spend so much time to edit one video and then it doesn’t get any views

But then i do a fucking shitty, meme-y video and that one does well and i’m like “HUH????”

The algorithm is weird

Viv: so does this mean that you’re sitting on a bunch of TIkToks or Shorts that you really like but they’re really low in views?

Tiny: YEAHH! I really thought they’d pop off

YouTube Shorts is actually harder for me

Viv: Really?

Tiny: Yeahhh…when I post, it doesn’t get a lot of traction.

I want to get better at YouTube though, because I feel like that’s where a lot of things are. I guess I just gotta post more, and market it somehow.

Viv: well yeah that’s the thing too

As a creative, not only are you in charge of not only creating your videos, you have to market them too 

And that’s tiring…for ANYONE

Tiny: Yeahh i know, and I don’t have money for marketing posts and stuff

So i guess i just gotta keep trying

Viv: THese companies really gotta pay you more

I wanna see more people like you on the front page

I’m so tired of seeing like

Tiny: White people?

Viv: YEAH

Or the same big creators, like the ones we ALWAYS see in the carousel.

Twitch needs to start posting other people, too

Like you and your friends are ENTERTAINING

Why aren’t you all on the carousel more often?

Tiny: YEAH 

Give us our momenttttt

HAHAHAHAHA

Yeah sometimes it feels like it’s only about the views and money, and if you don’t do enough you don’t get seen

But that’s why I’m so glad for companies like Riot Games, because even though I’m a small creative, they’re still willing to work with me, which shows they care

Viv: Yeah! There’s so much talent out there that’s fun to watch on Twitch

Like I love the super unhinged streams where people have the most chaotic energy

Compared to the people who do subathons and there are just ads everywh—

YOU EVER WATCH THOSE STREAMS WHERE THERE’S JUST SO MUCH SHIT ON THEIR STREAM

And you don’t even see them anymore

Tiny: YEAH it’s so weird

I try not to have a lot of stuff on the stream so that you can still see me

Viv: WHICH IS SMART

I wanna see more of THAT

And I wanna see more of YOU

Like I said before, when I heard that you’re Vietnamese and non-binary I was like YES

Tiny: HAHAHAHAHA

FINALLY

Viv: YEAH

And you probably feel the same when you meet another Viet person

Tiny: YEAHHHH

I get so excited when I meet another Viet or another Southeast Asian person

I’m like “OMG”

“ONE OF US, ONE OF US”

It’s so rare and hard to find, especially with the new Twitch tags.

Viv: wait so how do the new tags work?

Tiny: so the new tags, you type them in this time, so everything’s all manually typed

It used to be pre-filled, so there would be a certain way to spell things so it’d be easier to click it and find people

But now people have so many different tags. Like some people will put “lgbtq”, and other people will put “lgbtqia” or different variations of it

So it makes it a bit harder to find other people because now everything’s all mumble-jumbled

Like if you write “Southeast Asian”, it’s a whole word and it’s not separated anymore

Viv: ughhhhhh

Idk how i feel about that

Tiny: yeah

I mean it’s alright, but it’s just…people will have different variations and it makes it hard.

Viv: yeah idk why that’s a thing, they should get their shit together

Tiny: yeahhhhh

Viv: OKAY 

TIME FOR THE LAST SECTION

Which prompt do you want?

Tiny: Aww shiet…THIS IS HARD

Viv: I’ve made it hard on PURPOSE

So I’m curious to see which one you want

Tiny: Hmm…

You know what, give me a top 5 topic.

Viv: OHHH ALRIGHT

This one is a bit of a selfish request

Why don’t you tell me your top 5 favourite vietnamese dishes that are NOT noodle soups.

Tiny: NOT NOODLE SOUPS?

Viv: YEAH BECAUSE

Everyone knows about phở and bún bò huế and stuff

Tiny: Bro bún bò huế is my favourite tho!

Viv: *GASP*

Tiny: like i’m a bún bò huế person, i’m not a phở person

Viv: ME TOO

Tiny: oh my GOD YEAH

It’s always phở this, pho that, what about the bún bò huế man?

Viv: AGREED

Tiny: alright okay so, not noodle soups…

I really like bò lúc lắc, it’s one of my favourites to eat

I love it, i like the beef and how it’s made with the red rice

YUMMMM

Viv: OH MY GOD YES

I LITERALLY HAVE RED RICE IN MY FRIDGE 

I want to buy some beef so i can make bò lúc lắc

Tiny: OMG 

Maybe i should get some too

Viv: LOL

Tiny: okay the next one would be cơm gà da giòn

So crispy chicken with red rice, that’s my next favourite

Viv: DUDE THAT’S LITERALLY WHAT I HAVE IN MY FRIDGE

Tiny: WAIT YOOOOOOO

This is a sign

Viv: YEAH

But i think what i have is cơm gà rô ti

Tiny: Ahhh!

See do you know what’s funny though

Even though we’re from different parts of the world, our vietnamese accents are the same

But like we talk in different english accents

That’s crazy right?

Viv: OH MY GOD 

YEAH

Tiny: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Viv: WAIT THAT’S SO—

HOLD UP 

WHOA

Tiny: HOLD ON

Cause you’re from the South, right?

Viv: yeah my parents are from the South.

Tiny: yeah yeah yeah

Same same same

So we both have the same accents

This blows my mind every time, cause i found out from a friend who’s from America, but then when they speak Viet, it’s the same way as how I speak Viet. 

But in English I have an Australian accent and they have an American accent, so it’s very different

Viv: THAT’S SO TRIPPY

OMG

Tiny: YEAHHH HAHAHAHAHA

Viv: so if we both went to vietnam and just spoke to each other in vietnamese

No one would guess….

Tiny: no one would guess that we were Australian and American

That’s wild, right?

Viv: YEAH

THAT’S SO TRIPPY

Tiny: that’s the cool thing though, it’s funny

Viv: this is the highlight of this feature ANYWAY GO ON

Tiny: HAHAHAHAHAH YEAH

Okay okay uhh…

Bánh xèo is probably my next one. Vietnamese pancakes

DELISH

Dip them in nước mắm, it’s DELICIOUS

Viv: OH

Did your parents do the thing where they just make an endless amount

Tiny: oh yeah HAHAHAHA

Viv: with different pans

YES

Tiny: they just keep on making it and making it and making it omg

But it’s so good

Hmm what else is there…

OH

Obviously bánh mì, that shit’s GOOD

Viv: YES

Which one is your favourite?

Tiny: the one with the pork slices

Viv: oh bánh mì đặc biệt?

Tiny: YEAH that one

Damn I’m really not allowed to say bún bò huế?

Viv: NO NOODLE SOUPS LOL

Tiny: AW SHIT Okay okay…

OH OH OH 

Bánh tiêu is my FAVOURITE

Viv: *GASP*

Tiny: the vietnamese donut

Viv: THE DONUT WITH THE SESAME SEEDS???

Tiny: YEAH YEAH THE SESAME SEEDS

And it’s hollow inside

It’s so sweet and SO GOOD

Viv: omg YES

Tiny: it’s one of my favourites

Viv: THOSE ARE SO GOOD

Omg now i’m craving cơm gà

Especially with the đồ chua, the pickles

Tiny: OHHHH THE CARROTS?

THE PICKLED CARROTS?

Those are my favourite

Viv: YEAH

A lot of foods are so rich so eating it with rau and đồ chua is so good

Man Viet food is so good

The desserts are good too

Tiny: YEAHHH

I always get chè ba màu when I go to a cafe

Idk what it’s called in english, but I also like bánh bò

Viv: OH the little steamed rice cakes?

Tiny: YEAH YEAH those are so good

Viv: THOSE ARE SO CUTE

Tiny: OOOO sticky rice is so good too

When I go to Vietnam, I always get sticky rice from the carts

It comes in different colours too, I usually get the purple one when I go to Vietnam

And every morning I’d eat soft tofu in the market

The one you eat at the dim sum

Viv: OH THOSE ARE REALLY GOOD

I know when I go to the markets here I buy the soft tofu in giant containers and then we get the ginger syrup on the side and coconut milk and put it together

It’s SO GOOD

Tiny: OMG YUM

Damn I’m hungry now

Viv: ME TOO

Okay let’s wrap up here before we get TOO hungry

Are there any last minute things you want to say, advice, guidance, etc?

Tiny: Hmmmmmmmmm

Just have fun.

HAHAHAHAHA

Viv: HAHAHAHA

Tiny: Have fun, don’t let numbers eat you up, and take care of yourself always.

Always put yourself first.

I think burnout is probably one of the worst things to go through, and a lot of us don’t take care of ourselves that well.

So we just need to remember to take care, have fun, and be happy.

Viv: I think everyone needs that, especially after the last few years

Tiny: Yeah exactly

If anyone wants to get into streaming, I highly recommend it. It might be very daunting at first, but it could be worth it in the end.

I started from scratch, and here i am now.

Viv: they grow up so fast *tear*

Tiny: YEAH! Three years.

Make genuine connections, you never know where they might lead you to.

Viv: yep, you really never know.
