    I am 62 and I love your videos! My grandparents met at Berkeley over 100 years ago (1913). They both graduated and my grandpa got his law degree and grandmother got her Masters.

    I don’t know why I loved the scenes in the quad, with the bell and the plane flying by, to not edit those out, to leave in the little humorous “imperfections”. It’s wholesome. I like to see the imperfections, the small problems that may arise, the relatability in struggling to find quiet.

    It's interesting how everything you went through, even your college choices, and post college careers prior to UA-cam, prepared you for this moment. He is using all your experiences. None of them were in vain. He orders our steps even when we don't realize that they are being ordered. He is such an awesome and sovereign God. I love Him. Thanks for sharing. You continue to inspire me. God Bless.

As someone who's still in college, this video helped me to broaden my perspective and to truly be grateful for where God has placed me and appreciate my campus for its beauty! May God continue to bless you and sing His praises over you! 😊💖

    I struggled a lot at this school as a low-income transfer student of color and felt like an imposter. The school’s bureaucracy made my life hell. But I’m glad others were able to enjoy their time here :) I did find my small community that were my support in my last year. If I had to do it all over again, I think I would go back to Cal even though it was torture and I had many mental breakdowns. I learned a lot and I’m happy to have graduated. I was more happy to leave than to get my degree lol. It’s just the bureaucracy that has to change, specifically financial aid and housing departments. If you don’t come from a privileged background, this school can be hard, but there are so many students going through the same thing. You can find a lot of support here.

    I visited NorCal for my 21st birthday with friends (& my parents haha) and we ended up walking around UC Berkeley for fun. This exact walkway and gate is where I remember being asked to photograph an all-male choir from Europe! It was a beautiful campus and it was so fun learning the history behind it through your video, Anh.
    Also fun fact: "Fiat Lux" on the gate means "let there be light". I only got that now that I've learned a bit more latin through growing in my faith, but I thought that was a cool thing to notice this time around. Didn't notice it when I was there all those years ago!

    Thank you so much for the message at the end! I've got a year and a half left until I graduate college and it truly does feel like it's your whole life. I went into a degree that my parents wanted me to pursue - and even though I'm not majoring in what I really, really want, it's given me an opportunity to see what I do and don't want to do with my life. Being in college is a crazy journey, and yeah, lots of us in the thick of it just want it done. But we're truly all learning about ourselves. And I can't wait to see what happens next.

I was raised by a single mom like you & we have our fair share of issues budding heads. I've dealt with mental/emotional pain just like you, having struggled with severe depression almost my whole life... I'm just in awe with how much we have in common & your channel resonates with me SO much. It is truly genuine, inspiring, and calming. Thank you for doing what you do ❤️

I'm 55 years old and I'm proud to say I went to college regardless of my parents telling me not to. I'm not close with them like you are with yours. Im happy with my life, but I'm always looking for other work that will be more enjoyable. ❤
