    i love how this channel shows the beauty of being alone, when it's just what you haven't thought it would be like that, but sometimes yourself being alone is the most beautiful thing ever.

    i love everything you said, especially the part “i cant possibly experience everything so i would rather experience myself” bcs i did too. last few years, it was hard to accept that some of my dreams aren’t meant for me. that it may take a long time or may be not at all. so instead i should focus on how to make myself happy. it made me healthier and even better. i learned a lot of things by loving myself. it is not a selfish thing to do, for me loving yourself is the start of being the best person ever.

    The diary entry at the start was beautiful. I studied at uni in Bournemouth from 2017 to 2021 and I had such an altered perception before I went that I would also have a huge friend group and be out on the town all the time. Taking the time to almost get to know myself again was one of the best things I've ever done.
    I applied to study a Masters yesterday just to prove to myself I can do it - if anyone reads this, never give up on your dreams - and always be the one star in the sky that shines in a different way

    Hey, friendly advice! I worked at a flower shop and I learned that flowers that are kept in a vase with water are better cut in diagonal rather than perpendicular so the flower can take in more water at once since the surface of absorption in greater. It will make them last longer if you cut them like so from time to time! :)

    I love watching your videos because it brings me back to my university days in England, 35 years ago. My children are grown now and I have grandchildren. The years go by fast, but it's lovely to go back down memory lane through your lens. So much remains the same and is so familiar. I can relive the sights, smells, and sounds through you. Thank you for that.

    This is so relatable. Who I was as a teenager and how I thought I would be about socialising is light years away from the quiet homebody that I had become. Letting go of and identity that you clung onto so intensely can be the greatest gift of freedom to yourself.

    randomly found your channel and pulled up this video. the first scene hit me and I burst into tears. thank you. it described me with the walking into a room and feeling inadequate and the weight of all the lives you’re not living and the things you’re not doing. my brother is 23, college has worked out well for him,he had $250 a month housing for 3 years, he has gotten internships and jobs, got a new car, just got married with an amazing remote job right off the bat

    Hi Jing,
    I'm 14, and your videos really inspire me because I love how they are not completely super productive like the other vlogs I see, but realistic. My dream is to go to oxford too and you show me exactly what I hope to achieve. Thank you so much for keeping things the "real" you and that just makes me realise that I don't have to pretend to be someone I'm not just so people will like me.

    10:58 i don't know if you will see this comment but i think it's so important that you said that on the video, because often young people try to find for an "aesthetic" or "something core" to fit them and they try to mold themselves into that aesthetic (clothes, books, room decor, music, even activities) when the reality is that each person is unique and you should always center your life around things that make you happy no matter if they don't seem cohesive, no matter if things are too weird or too basic. let yourself be defined by the things that you love! don't define yourself by what a stranger calls "dark academia", "coquette", "kidcore", etc etc

    Winter is honestly my favourite season. :,-) I like seeing the flowers blossom in spring and going on summer walks when you're feeling the beautiful shine from the sun, but hopefully not its intense heat, but autumn and especially winter are just so cosy. Ever since I started noticing these things more, I've actually liked it when the sun starts setting earlier and earlier. Now that that's not so, I'm starting to notice how it helped me this past winter in that I found it easier to actually wind down as it gets late. Maybe my messed-up sleep schedule has something to do with it... but let's not think about that now. 😀 (sorry lol my thoughts are always a mess)
    I agree with what you said at 16:30. I think the beauty of this, hearing, from a distance, people enjoying themselves late at night while you're taking things easy as bedtime draws nearer, comes from the realisation of the vastness of the world. While you're curled up in bed with a book or watching a show, there are other people out there enjoying themselves (just like you are, just in a different way). And you probably have no idea what exactly they're doing but they're together and it seems like they're having the time of their lives. And then it's like the joy they're experiencing in that moment is contagious, you just feel it in your heart, a warmth. And they don't even know who you are. But you don't mind. They're with each other and you're alone but you don't feel sorry for yourself, you feel happy for them.
    I've had this video in my Watch Later playlist for a considerable while, probably since it was uploaded (over two and a half months ago), and that's because I like being in a good headspace and cosy environment when I watch these vlogs. I really think I'm going to be able to get my life back on track in the coming weeks, having a good plan for doing my schoolwork that I hope to stick to while also being able to make progress in my writing and basically just being productive as well as taking breaks from working. I just want to work enough so that my self-care time feels... not "earned", but more rewarding, that's a better word. And I don't even think my life is getting back on track, after the pandemic, I mean; I think I actually have the chance to be better than I ever have been because with every passing year, I feel more confident about who I want to be. I was already thinking this in 2021 but 2023 is even more different to me then, and 2020 me and especially 2019 me. I guess that's just normal, I'm only just becoming an adult. Maybe 2024 me will be yet more different... but for now, that doesn't really matter. There's another thing... I really want to get better at living in the moment, being present and mindful. A bit like those people partying late at night. I think I'm going to go and get ready for bed in a bit, not sleep so late (it's quarter past one but still earlier than most days).
