    hi everyone! I'm Marsela! I'm a 24-year-old software engineer based in Los Angeles, California ☀️ I make all sorts of videos, mainly related to being a software engineer, but I also dabble in fashion videos and cooking content (love what I eat in a day videos!). I'm super new to all of this, and appreciate your support, so thank you so much for watching 🤍

    I’ve moved states and countries a few times and have definitely honed my friend making skills, it’s all about repeat exposure and making the first move. Social sports, work friends and friends of friends are usually the quickest way. You could try fitness classes and chat to people afterwards/ask to coffee? Or find some incredibly niche charcuterie board meet up group 😍

    hi! i have a quick question if u dont mind (ur videos are so nice and helpful btw!!) i want to major in computer science but i suffer from moderate social anxiety and a bit of a speech impediment therefore it is difficult to pick a career that would be fitting for me. the meetings/teams aspect of it scares me a bit and i was wondering if it requires a lot of mental effort/extraversion to be able to do and participate in? sorry if this is a weird question i hope it makes sense!😭

    I love persimmons!! They tastee so much better in Albania. It is like they are not ripe enough here, not sure if I should just buy them at the farmers market instead! The pumpkin video and this one are such a vibe! I have you in the background as I am cleaning up my kitchen and feeling productive! Also you are so young and have accomplished so much! wow ❤️

    Marsela! Don’t feel bad about the fiddle tree I also killed mine 😂 they are very picky about where they are placed so maybe try moving it around your apartment to see if it likes being in a certain spot more. As for your monstera I can tell you that he needs a bigger pot!

    1. yeah sis. plants from home improvement stores are trash. 0/10 recommend.
    2. the charcuterie board is cute! would love a tutorial popped into another video if you do it again!
    3. making friends as an adult is definitely hard. well for me anyway. but i've recently started joining more small groups around different interests, like church, swe, acting, etc. i've been making strong connections and i don't have to "try" or force it because we're already meeting on a common ground. you'll find your tribe(s)! (:
    as always, enjoyed the video! ✨

      Oh don’t think about it like that, that’s a very limiting mindset! We all are at our own pace, so compare and track progress only against yourself and not other people. I could compare myself to similar people my age that have accomplished way more, but that would do me no good, and just discourage me further.
      Read up on comparison and how damaging that is
