Her name is Sarah, a university student in her junior year, studying in Sobet. Currently, it is around 10 pm. She likes to watch some videos on youtube before she goes to bed.
The youtube feed is nothing but a circle around the shopping and fashion category. She likes to watch fashion shows from famous brand names and she likes to watch some random stuff on youtube.
As she's scrolling through the recommended list, Sarah stumbles upon a video which title is 'Shopping With Elli! #1 |Phone, Tablet, Laptop|', is posted by Elliana Carrasco, has quite a view in the video itself.
However, the thing that gets her hooked on this video may be the girl, herself, and the video's content. The girl in the video looks so pretty and it seems to be a new channel which explains the traffic of viewers is so little. Then Sarah starts to watch the video.
In the Video Clip, Shopping With Elli! #1 |Phone, Tablet, Laptop|
The video started with a relaxing intro song and the girl sat in front of the camera which showed only her upper body. In the background, it showed seem to be her bedroom as there was a bed frame in the corner.
As for the girl, she was wearing a ruffle long sleeve dress in pastel pink. After a few seconds, the girl started her speech.
"Hello, the beautiful ladies and handsome gentlemen! My name is Elliana, or you can call me Elli for short. Welcome to my channel! This is the first video that I've uploaded, so everyone that has to click on the video and is viewing now, I wish you all the best and have a lucky encounter and good things happen to you and your family!
As you've seen from the title, today's video is about shopping. So, it can be considered as a shopping vlog. And I know that being able to buy things or go shopping in a person or through the online platforms, for us girls and women is like a dream come true.
And let me tell you guys one thing, I'm a shopaholic and I know that whenever you go shopping, no matter it's window shopping or not, basically, just shopping alone really brings pleasure and happiness.
So that is why I want to share this happiness with you all, which means that I hope through my sharing of this happiness could bring a smile to a person when he or she is sad or if possible make their day somehow has a bright light in there. Apparently, this is my purpose.
Oh! Before that, I want to introduce my outfit for the day. I'm wearing a ruffle long sleeve mini dress in pastel pink, a pair of wedge heels, which is a contrast wedge heel about 3 cm, a princess-length necklace with a simple golden heart locket as a pendant, a pair of rhinestone heart drop earrings, a golden and white charm bracelet, and a beige saddlebag.
So, let's begin the video!"
The scene changed from her bedroom to what seemed to be a kitchen and a breakfast nook, and a delicious breakfast set on the table.
"For today's shopping, I had my brother to be my driver and an advisor for what I will buy. My breakfast includes toast with butter, an egg, avocado, and warm milk. Pretty simple and balanced meal for breakfast, I would say so myself."
Then the scene changed to inside the car as the camera was facing the front panel of the car.
"The destination for today's shopping is Venus Mall, as they provide a variety of goods and services. Also, 2 phone brands that I plan to buy have a store there, and it is quite big from what I have known from internet searching and through the picture that somebody posted.
Aside from phones, tablets, IPad, and laptops, I also shop for their accessories while I am there too."
The scene again changed from the inside of the car to what seemed to be the ground floor of the shopping mall.
"Now, we've arrived on the ground floor of Venus Mall. As you can see…"
At this time, the girl known as Elli moved the camera 360 degrees to show the surrounding area to the audience.
"Most of the stores on the ground floor are the clothes store, so we will go to the first floor to see our objectives."
Right after she finished, the camera then moved toward the escalator that went up. Then she arrived on the first floor. In the video, the picture showed at the moment seemed to be a phone store.
"Luckily, one of the phone brand stores that I wanna buy is right in front of us, so I don't need to waste time to walk as we got a long day to go."
She then proceeded to the storefront, which was the Samsung store.
"Wow! So many phones display! Can I have it all? Just Kidding! Why do I need a lot of phones when my country has only 3 telecom lines? Wait, then should I buy 3 phones delicate for each telecom line? What do you think brother?"
Then the camera moved to the tall guy that stood near Elli, as he has shown his face in the breakfast scene.
"Personally, I have 2 phones which delicate to 2 telecom lines among 3 of them, one is for business and the other for personal use."
"Then you think whether I should buy 1 or 2 phones?"
"Maybe you should get 2 phones, I will apply for 2 telecom lines for you, one line for business and one for personal."
"Alright, I will go with your suggestion, brother."
Elli then continued looking through the displayed phone on the counter and ask the staff for the latest model of phone that had been released.
"Excuse me! Which one is the latest release?"
The staff that was asked was a little surprised but then he calmed down and shows a perfect business smile to Elli.
"This one, dear customer!"
The male staff pointed at the item to the left of her and her brother.
"This one is the latest phone that Samsung has ever released. It is the Galaxy S6 Edge plus. It is 5.7 inches, weighs 153 g, has a slim build, has 4GB RAM, with a battery of 3000mAh, a resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels in the display, features the LED flash, auto-HDR, panorama of the main camera which is best in capturing the pictures, and come in 5 colors, namely, Black Sapphire, Gold Platinum, Silver Titan, White Pearl, Pink. "
(The information is from the gsmarena.com)
"Oh my! It is such a smooth operating. This is quite good. Then, could I take a look at other items?"
"Sure, dear customer, please take your time, if you have any doubts, you can find me for clarification."
With that, the male staff walked away from the duo. Elli took around 15 minutes to tinker with the phones.
"Brother, let's take a look at other brands. I want some comparison before I decided which one I want to buy."
"Sure, let's go!"
The sibling then proceeded to the Sony store which just needed to walk past a few stores. Elli took the initiative to approach the female staff that stood a few meters away from them and asked her.
"Excuse me! Which one is the latest released?"
The female staff then showed them a sweet smile before greeting them and led them into the store.
"Oh! Please come this way, dear customer!"
(Just pretend that all the popular phones during 2015 have been released to the market in August because I knew that they usually released in September, October and November. Just pretend.)
"This is our latest released this year, Xperia Z5 premium. It is 5.5 inches, weighs 180 g, with 7.8 mm thickness. It has a glass front and back with an aluminum frame as support. It is also dust and water-resistant up to 1.5 m for 30 mins. It got the latest android system and the GPU of Adreno 430 with 3GB RAM, features 23 MP for the main camera, 5.1 MP for the selfie camera, and the display resolution is up to 2160 x 3840 pixels. It also got 3430 mAh with the fast charging system and comes in 4 colors, namely, Chrome, Black, Gold, and Pink."
"That's cool! Brother, what do you say if I were to buy both of the latest phones from the 2 stores that we've visited?"
"Just buy it, considering it is my gift for you to start your 11th grade in the new school."
"Thank you so much, brother!"
Eventually, Elli and her brother settled to buy both latest phones and her brother went to get her numbers for both phones, so she was left alone to shop for the accessories.
"Actually, I want to buy the tablet or iPad now, but my brother goes to the telecom companies in the mall to get my new number so I guess I will just need to wait a bit for him here. Otherwise, he cannot find me because I don't have anything to contact him or inform him if I go somewhere else. Let's buy an ice cream to chill."
The video display 10 minutes later and in the scene, the viewer can see a tall guy walked toward the camera.
"Brother, you've come!"
"En. Let's go!"
The camera then moved following along with the sibling, Elli walked in the front and her brother seemed to be the one who holding the camera to film her. They'd arrived at the Apple store.
"Brother, between android and IOS for the tablet, which one should I go for?"
