The 18-year-old documented her final days in Jupiter, Florida, before moving to Miami in a YouTube vlog, posted over the weekend.<\/p>\n

The aspiring pro golfer kicked off Saturday\u2019s video with footage of herself crying behind the wheel as she prepared to say goodbye to her loved ones.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not a very emotional person at all, so this is like really weird for me to cry,\u201d Kai said, noting that she has \u201conly cried a few times\u201d in her life.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think knowing that I have to say goodbye to everyone tonight really, really sucks,\u201d President Donald Trump\u2019s granddaughter continued. \u201cI\u2019m struggling right now, just thinking about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, Kai, who will be an hour and a half away from her family, expressed excitement over this \u201cnext chapter.\u201d<\/p>\n

She told viewers, \u201cI\u2019m moving on. \u2026 It happens to everyone. It\u2019s time to move on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kai did not film the goodbyes with her friends and family, explaining, \u201cIt was just, like, sad. I just wanted to say goodbye. It was, like, hard to film because I wanted to be, like, present with my family, so I just didn\u2019t film it.\u201d<\/p>\n

She went on to give a glimpse of her apartment, which Vanessa, 48, helped her move into.<\/p>\n

Kai, who predicted her mom would \u201chave a mental breakdown\u201d moving her in, documented the experience of shopping for her new space via Instagram on Sunday.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m totally exhausted from going to her apartment, coming back and forth and moving everything,\u201d Vanessa said in the social media upload.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe spent HOURS shopping for everything I could possibly need for my apartment and getting ready for this new chapter of college life!\u201d Kai told her followers. \u201cSo thankful my mom was there to do it all with me.\u201d<\/p>\n

The athlete, who committed to the Florida college nearly two years before graduating from high school in May, continued, \u201cShe truly is the BEST mom, and I\u2019m so grateful for her.\u201d<\/p>\n

She gave a deeper look at their shopping trip on YouTube, where she observed her mom was \u201cdefinitely getting emotional because she got quiet.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vanessa, however, quipped, \u201cI think this is amazing. One child out and four more to go.\u201d<\/p>\n

She, notably, shares Kai and her siblings \u2014 Donald III, 17, Tristan, 14, Spencer, 13, and Chloe, 12 \u2014 with ex-husband Donald Jr., whom she divorced in 2018.<\/p>\n

Vanessa, who has since moved on with boyfriend Tiger Woods, is currently battling breast cancer.<\/p>\n

When she went public with her diagnosis in May, Kai showed support for her mom by dubbing her \u201cthe strongest person\u201d she knows.<\/p>\n
