THANK YOU FOR WATCHING AND BEING WONDERFUL!
Black joy matters 🖤
Wow, almost too many compliments for me to handle haha but thank you! I started making videos purely for myself because no one else was really making theme park video essays and I've been really shocked they've connected with people (even if that audience is super niche). I think lots of people have had the experience of making a small creative project and putting it online to basically no response, and shouting into the void like that can be really disheartening. Point is, it's still wild for me to hear anyone saying nice things about my videos and it means a ton! It's cool to know other people also want to look at theme parks in a way with (hopefully) a little more depth
The part about the relief of not having to decide during a no buy is something I have really noticed too since I decided for sure that I am doing a no buy indefinitely. It really became clear how big part of my life preparing to shop was.
Fun fact: while "billet doux" means love letter in both French and English, the literal translation from the French is "sweet note." The English pronunciation is as close to the French as is possible to get with English phonemes: "bee-ay doo."
I just liked a comment that you left on Chelsea Moon's channel and I feel like I see your comments everywhere. I think we watch a lot of the same RUclipsrs. Et, moi aussi je parle français. It's kind of cool!
Someone else who sobbed through all of Moana! I feel so validated 😄
These videos continue to cheer me up. Thank you for being here even when you are dealing with other things. Keeping my thoughts with you and your family right now.
You cheer me up! Your vibe soothes me.
💯
I'm sorry you have experienced a loss in your family. Thank you for continuing to acknowledge Black Lives Matter and the difficulties so many are experiencing. I too found Julia's compassion training to be profoundly life/mind/heart altering! I'm finding joy in paper books as well, Epsom salt baths, berry herbal teas, the dark comedy series After Life, and my cats.
One thing about Northern Canada is that shoveling snow is a quiet activity
I had a loss in my family this morning. So my deepest thoughts are with you. Thank you for sharing things that bring you some kind of happiness. I definitely needed it today.
I also had a loss in my friends. And the only thing keeping my thoughts to get dangerous for like a week were you and Smokey Glow's podcast. So thank you
Edit : here as a scientist, just want to warn you about making things yourself. A body scrub is absolutely ok but if you consider using things like baking soda or caustic soda, maybe don't. It is not a judgement. However, I've seen a lot of "clean" beauty channel/blog/book recommending really dangerous things. I friend got into the hospital because his mother wanted to make her own laundry detergent and put caustic soda in a sugar pot
"Everyone has a sweet tooth" is the best option I can come up with.
All the best to you and yours in this difficult time.
The year Moana came out I downloaded the soundtrack and listened to it on repeat for like 2 months. Totally relate. ☺️💜 Best Disney “princess” IMO.
On the theme of DIY beauty, I'm on a make up no buy and have recently found a lot of joy in crushing and mixing powder products that don't quite work for me to create new face/eye powders (a too bright blush or bronzer remixed with a white/light eyeshadow for example). I often hear you say that a colour lacks x or y for your taste, but would love to see a video of you creating your own colour products from things that you otherwise might declutter.
ooh, get ready for a video along these lines, probably going up tomorrow!

*grabs popcorn*
Well that IS exciting. Can't wait to see it.
Also, writing in haste earlier I forgot to say, thank you for your work here on RUclips. I find your content inspiring and so comforting in THESE times. X
So true! Hannah is the only one who is cheering me up right now. Going through a rough time aside from the pandemic...
Not sure about your other subscribers, but the way you describe the inspiration you get from Terry Barber is the inspiration I get from you (and your content 😀) . Thank you!! 🎨
Is it ok to request something from a RUclipsr? Apologies if it isn't but I thought I'd give it a go...
I'd love to see your interpretation of themed makeup. I really like the seasons so I have makeup for January, February and so on, and not necessarily following traditional makeup themes. It made me wonder what a HLP makeup look based on winter would look like and then I thought about other themes - what would a HLP look for libraries look like, or stoicism, or the state of Washington and so on. How would HLP interpret February through makeup and artistry? Would there be any crossover in the way I interpret February?
There. That's my request.
lovely idea! Thank you!
I’ve lost three family members in 2020 not due to COVID. It’s so incredibly unreal. Thank you for your video
I completely believe in re-reading favorite books years later. You are different and so you notice different things and have different feelings about things...for better or worse. Good books dont live in a vacuum, they change as you change.
Just change your intro to 'Welcome to my Hannah, my name is channel'. Lol!
If Moana in English has been making you cry, try listening to the soundtrack in Maori. It's so incredibly gorgeous, it's almost as if the emotion comes through better somehow, like light through clear water. Or something.. Anyway, give it a listen, it's absolutely lovely -> ruclips.net/video/9e2m_gYjyUY/видео.html
edit: just listened to it again after linking it, and what is this waterfall down my face LMAO
this is awesome
Sending you all the ❤good❤ vibes, because this has already been a difficult year....and we're not even through January 🤦♀️
Making my own eyeshadow is making me happy these days... I watched some tutorials on youtube as to how to do it and bought some pigments, but I've also been using some lackluster old eyeshadows breaking them and mixing them and mixing them with with the pigments and it's turning out great! :)
Moana and Mulan were my movies that I’ll watch again and again. My heart SWELLS when she’s marching out to where she longs to be!
Hannah, "billets doux", meaning in French something like "sweet notes", are little things you write down and pass on to someone you either fancy or plain love. It's also said for short love letters. It's pronounced "Bi-yeah doo", phonetically, the double L is smooth in French, not a hard L. I am very sorry for your loss ❤
I'm comfort rewatching my favorite shows: Jeeves and Wooster, The IT Crowd and Slings and Arrows; Ridiculously bright and sparkly eye looks inspired by new insta faves, watercolor painting lessons online, zooming with my friends and family are all that stands between me and full on dysfunctional depressive episode right now, I think.
your pink look reminds me of my childhood fashion and makeup icons: Jem and the Holograms.
lol you must be my age!!! That show was my LIFE!! 😄
Thank you for your candidness and empathy- you are a bright light!
Yes! Moana IS that good!!!
I've also watched it at least three times, and some years ago it actually inspired me to go to therapy)) I was bawling my eyes out and was like "I will return my own heart to me, fuck everybody", it's legit a life-changing movie for me.
I WILL RETURN MY OWN HEART TO ME, FUCK EVERYBODYYYYYYY :)
I immediately went and purchased a gorgeous hand dyed tee from Billetdoux! Soooo good! Thanks for sharing their store.
I have also noticed that I can now watch films, read books, etc at 3-5 year intervals and happily enjoy them again, with the vast majority of the details being lost long before. The ones that have brought me the most joy are nice to look forward to down the line. I love the new, however sometimes there is a comfort to the old and reliable. Something pre-approved as such.
The pink top and blush draping. Gorgeous! Also can't wait for the bath/shower scrubs video as your previous video with Julia inspired me to do the same! I made a coffee scrub as those ingredients were already at hand and it was way better than I expected and it smells amazing. Will do a green tea one next. It was so easy and fun. Already has me imagining them as gifts💕
Lastly, I am wishing you well at this time of such uncertainty, particularly in America. So many of us abroad feel for you all. Sending a hug (and nutrient dense spirit water for your smaller inner herbaceous self)😘
Not sure about your other subscribers, but the way you describe the inspiration you get from Terry Barber is the way I would describe the inspiration I get form you and your content 😀🎨
Yes! Moana! One of my favourite movies. It always has me sobbing at the end of the movie. I love how the movie is essentially about women helping women through trauma. When I realized that, the scene at the end with Moana and Te Ka just felt so much more powerful and I sob every time!
I first saw Moana as I was in the process of healing from a really devastating heartbreak, and learning how to be myself alone again, and the whole movie hit so many personal notes that I was sobbing out my catharsis basically the whole time. That scene where she's returning the heart to Tefiti and that softly powerful song was everything to me at that time. I'll always love that movie for how it helped me heal 💙
"It's tiiiiiiiime..." This is one of my favorite segments. Always love it when this video comes around.
I love manor house mysteries! Or stuffy British mid century mysteries. I’ve been ping ponging between Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers the last few months, and occasionally rewatching Knives Out.
If you love a bit of Agatha Christie you might enjoy the Aussie series Miss Fisher's murder mysteries - set in the 20s and very fun, light, and has the same vibe (while not being British per se it's heavily influenced by British murder mysteries). On Netflix in some countries I think?
Honestly Agatha Christie is my safe space when the world is too much, at least the bad guys always get caught ❤️
Omg tis is totally a thing that you forget something and can re-experience it years later. I think this is why I love re-reading books, because while I can remember loving a book and maybe a general idea what its about, the details are gone so its just so enjoyable to experience again. And omg, Moana is so inspirational to me that I cry every time I even hear the music. I love it. I’m testing a crochet pattern tight now and chose yarn colors that were hand dyed based on Moana, and its going to be my favorite wrap to wear once its done❤️
I’d say something like, “My boyfriend and I both have a sweet tooth.” ❤️
Early comment so I don't forget: I would absolutely saw "We have a sweet tooth" - like you would say "We have a preference for sweet things" rather than "We have preferences for sweet things". OK writing that out maybe you would say that but I think either works.
that's what Joe said too. He feels like having a sweet tooth is "a state of being" and can therefore be plural even though there's theoretically only one tooth being referenced
Also, Lin-Maneul Miranda wrote the Moana soundtrack and te Hamilton soundtrack at the same time. You can really hear the similarities:)
EARLY!!! And a "what's cheering me up" video!!! Yes!! These always give me some food for thought.
I was so inspired by your first Terry Barber video where you were building your palette that I did messy, creasy lids...it wasn't cute lol but it was fun to try something new. I really love his work!
Speaking of theme parks...You may be interested in a channel called, "GP To Enthusiast." I like his series called, "What Really Happened?" where he unpacks rollercoaster crashes/accidents. It's really interesting!
EDIT: That thing about forgetting and watching something anew is a thing and I love it.
Moana made me cry A LOT as well! It’s so good!
Content that is about a variety of things bringing you pleasure and discovery are so wonderful. I love learning about new "things" that can bring joy and at minimum flex my brainpower. I have gone through all the comments and made notes for the reading recommendations, what a wonderful community here. Looking forward to knowing how the body scrub project goes.
Your "What's Cheering Me Up Right Now" videos have inspired me to start making my own list of that in 2021 and I'm loving it! It's been so joy filled to simply read over my list of loves and feel that happiness come back in a way that didnt exist for me before I started doing it. It's like a gratitude practice for me and I'm so glad that you make these videos. (also, I'd really love to add "meeting Hannah in person" to my bucket list someday. Cheesy, but true. ;-) )
So much crying while watching Moana, so much! 💛 *stops watching your vid to go and listen to Shiny 3 time in a row*
:)
I love these videos the most! On my way to subscribe to that video essay channel, even though I've always been scared of rides. I love thoughtful analysis of pretty much anything. And I also love how many grammar nerds you have in the comment section! Lots of sweet people wanting to be helpful. I'm sure you can feel the love.
Moana is a staple in our day to day life, my daughter is obsessed. We also frequently watch Frozen 2, I love that there are movies for my daughter that don't end with a Prince Charming Happily Ever After™. It also cheers me up to watch her revel in the same story over and over, it reminds me that there is joy in the mundane things of life.
It sounds like you are finding your life's work that you were made for. And that is good for the whole world. We all have different paths/work but it all should have unconditional love at the center. And you want others to find their paths just as you have. Thank you!
Would love more reading & writing content on your channel :D. While we're talking about BLM and the horrible white supremacists invading our politics right now, I have a book recommendation. I just read The Prophet by Robert Jones Jr. and WOW. On the surface the story is about the lives of slaves on a plantation in Mississippi and the love story between two of the young men. But it's multi-POV and you get the perspective of all of the major characters (including the slaveholders, those chapters are real rough to read). This book raises a lot of questions: What does it mean to be an individual when you are enslaved? How much do you share of yourself with others when your secrets feel like the only part of you that is 'yours'? Is it okay to give your oppressors what they want if it makes your life more comfortable? Each of the characters has a slightly different perspective on these and you get to see how they play out in their actions. Amazing, amazing work.
Gosh, that sounds brilliant. Added to my reading list. Thanks!
thank you! Putting it on my list!
Awwww Moana 🤎🌋 My toddlers favorite movie. It's really a great movie.
I am so happy I found you! Your videos are so calming and beautiful and just speak to me. Love, love, love! ❤️❤️❤️
I am sending you love for whatever you are going through..
you! are cheering me up right now!
Your recommendation of Louise Penny brought me one of my favourite things of 2020. I've been slowly working through the series and loving every single book. Now I know I need to try some P.D. James when these run out!
That pink look is everything! So futuristic but also so retro I love it
After you mentioned paper books I went on my library's website and ordered a book - thank you for the inspiration!!!
Your bangs are looking so good! Love them with the braids
I'm loving your joy in this video and how you share what brings you joy.
I had such a bad day and this was the perfect video to watch to ground me for the night. Thanks for everything you do!
Off topic but I've been meaning to tell you that you don't need to scoot to the left or right (though it saves some work in post) in order to do a split screen. You can manually move the clip on the timeline (sequence) by going to "effect controls" for the clip (if you're in editing mode this will be one of the tabs on the left video viewer). The "postition" controls let you move the clip by adjusting the number. Fiddle with the larger number to move horizontally. It is very quick and easy once you're used to it. Also you can apply the same effect to multiple clips by right clicking to copy properties of the first clip which has the effect and then command-v-ing on the subsequent clips. You probably already knew this but just in case!
Thank you for sharing Hannah. I know reading before bed is much better for me and is something I've consciously started doing this week as we've returned to working 'in-office' rather than at home (I'm in Australia which is in a very different place to US/US/EU in regards to Covid-19).
A series/author I'd like to recommend is Kerry Greenwood (female Australian author) who writes the Miss Phryne Fisher series - female private investigator in Melbourne in the 1920's - and the Corinna Chapman series - female baker with a hot boyfriend who dabbles in crimes/investigations on the side, set in modern Melbourne. Probably lean more popular, than pure crime fiction - Agatha Christie-esque though.
There is also a TV series of the Phryne Fisher books, plus a Kickstarter funded movie too.
I love Kerry Greenwood, I've read them all! I think I might be able to go through again soon, though.
I love to watch movies again x100: it's not finding out about what happens, it's how it makes me feel when I watching, the mood it casts and the spell I'm under when watching, and that doesn't go away; just as when I re-read books.
I’m so excited about art critic lens towards theme parks! And it’s definitely time for a cozy mystery
Sorry about all the comments lol. A couple tips on the essential oils for your body scrub:
- keep them in the fridge. They’ll last longer, and keep from oxidizing.
- check out Aromahead Institute, they are an essential oil school and they are on Instagram, they focus on safety, and they have great homemade recipes for safe dilution of your oils in body care.
I hope this helps, have fun :)
I kinda think it is we have a sweet tooth because ‘sweet tooth’🦷 to me stands in for ‘A penchant for sweet foods’ and I would say ‘We have a penchant for sweet foods’ so ‘We have a sweet tooth’ just sounds right to me... might be totally wrong though?. 🦷 🦷 🦷 🦷 xxx
On the subject of murder in the English countryside, what's cheering me up right now is the BBC Poirot TV series!! You can find all the episodes on RUclips and it's so cozy and joyful (with a healthy dose of murder 😂)
P.D. James is deep pleasure, and delicious in the re-reading! Yes, THANK YOU, I am going back...again. I think I resold all the paperbacks I had, so I may have to buy used copies and revel in the experience. And singing "Shiny" from Moana is sure to bring a smile, then you can fall down the rabbit hole of "Flight of the Conchords." All of these choices bring joy!
If you like Moana, I bet you’ll love Frozen II! It spoke to me in a totally different way than the first Frozen did. 💙
PD James ordered:)
You are always an inspiration for me♡
Moana is wonderful, and I also cry at many points! I love that you love it ❤️
i left a verbose comment but it never posted... the woes of spectrum internet.
anyway, SSSSSHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!
thank you for creating a safespace for #blackjoy. everyone feels it. it's joy despite it all, and that's the common theme for this year.
soooo i'm 29 and have the same memory phenomena happening to me more each year, but i love it. i just set timers and write important stuff down. LOL i have a collection of physical media like Community, Read or Die: the tv, Life of pie etc that i'll go through every so often for rewatches. they were all from secondhand shops. what a distant memory those seem, now..
Thanks for sharing!!! 🥰 Sending you the best thoughts/vibrations 🥰
I. CAN'T. WAIT. FOR. THE. BODY. SCRUB. VIDEO. ❤
You've got to read The Red House Mystery by A. A. Milne. I'd never heard of it, but I'm trying to read the books referenced in Eight Perfect Murders prior to reading it, because I've heard that it's very bad about spoilers. And Red House, it was just so good! And yes, same author as Winnie the Pooh. :)
Me too !!!!! It’s my reading project this year .
I loved watching your gift giving video for Christmas, I was wondering if you would be doing a video on gifts you received this year for Christmas. It would be lovely to see the things you got 😘
🎵 MAKE WAY, MAKE WAY! 🎵 🐚 the best movie ever 💕 in regard to reading, I used my January budget for a Kobo Libra. I previously felt that e-readers were nothing short of sacrilege, but as I creep toward 30, my hands are achey and angry. I'm obsessed with this little e-reader; it's such a pleasurable reading experience, especially at night since I'm not straining my eyes. Here's to enjoying stuff that enriches my life, while barely raising my fluffy eyebrows at new makeup launches! 🥳
This was soo lovely! You reminded me of how much I loved Pd James and have now added Cover Her Face (as well as the other pd james books) to my 2021 to be read list. I also recommend Dorothy Sayers' Lord Peter Whimsy series, and also Daphe Du Maurier's Books are brilliant. Some of my go to feel good moves (honestly my favorites) James and the Giant Peach, What Maisie Knew, Derry Girls,The Boys Are Back (with clive owen), and I also love the Princess and the Frog. thanks for making this video :D it helped remind me of the things I've been loving, and also giving me some more inspirations for the coming months. xoxoKira
You can even hear Lin's voice in some of the pieces in Moana! Specifically the flash scene to the voyagers after she is shown the boats!
love listening to you for some reason. You should do podcasts :)
Love your book recommendations!! You introduced me to Sarah Caudwell and I have since bought copies for more friends. Would you consider doing a "What I read this month" mini-series, maybe to replace one of the series you don't enjoy doing anymore?
First time I watched Moana was shortly after I lost my grandmother so you can imagine the extreme emotional gymnastics that occurred
BUT watch Coco if you haven’t already!
Wait a second! It is my friday and I have had some wine and i am so! Excited! To see your body scrub!
I'm at about minute 14, and yes! Forgetting what happens in a book/movie/TV show you've seen previously totally happens to some people! I'm witnessing that every day with my dad. I work 3rd shift and live with my parents, so I hear/see a lot of what my dad watches (he's retired). After a couple months or years he'll find some show on Netflix and start to tell me about it and I remind him that he's already seen it. He doesn't remember anything about it so he watches it again, and I absorb it in the back of my mind as I do other things. It's kind of hilarious.
Have you read Tana French? Your description of mysteries you like immediately made me think of her books - murder mysteries in Ireland
So sorry for your loss.
I ❤ Moana, sometimes I sing the song Shiny and just dance by myself in the living room, also, anything with the Penguins From Madagascar make me laugh "Kowalski Nu-cul-er reactor" 🤣🤣 amd then sing Afro Circus/I like To Move It. Chocolate, Music & Movies keep me sane.
I recently saw an ad that used "sweet tooths" as in "calling all sweet tooths out there." And I've heard that expression before also. So although it doesn't sound right I'm pretty sure it is correct to say!
If it has not yet been recommended, The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton is the book that really got me back into reading fiction! I picked it up on a recommendation and I tore through it within days. Ever since I've been looking for mystery books that scratch the same itch, but I haven't been able to find any! Maybe I should also pick up some P. D. James books :^)
I read it in the middle of last year! It was a blast.
Haha I’m currently taking a break from his second book The Devil and the Dark Water to watch Hannah and came across your comment😆
@@AneCathrine how are you finding it so far? I'm currently waiting for a copy to be available at my library!
@@IGotsAHat it was really good! I read it in two sittings because I just HAD to know what was happening!
This may be a Big Question, but I’ve been wondering what your writing goals are long term. Nothing seems more intimidating than a blank page. How do you fill them? What are you writing? What are your writing dreams?
I immediately hit the description box to see what gave you those absolute angel cheeks. Can’t wait for the comparison video!
I completely feel you on the idea of old things feeling new because your memory is no longer there haha!
I had the exact same experience with Moana! I watched it when I was already feeling quite emotional and just cried all the way through. Best cry I'd had in a while!
Movies on planes make you cry more! My film teacher talked about this in class once. LOL something to do with the pressurized cabin.
Saw PD James in the thumb nail and hit the like button 🙂
Hannah, do you remember the name of the channel you featured as a favorite maybe in April of so? It was a channel where you said the guy would feature like the sounds of a city n japan or a rainstorm in new your. It was a mix of interesting sounds that was helping you get through really being in the thick of quarantine. I made a mental note to go back to the video when i could look up the channel but times escaped me. I watch you video with my phone or pen and paper so i can enjoy every word you say!
Oh your comment about self care resonates so much with me! Except I haven't found the linchpin of my own self care routine... I might try the no screens in bed too
Oh, I love the Dalgliesh mysteries. PD James is one of my favorite mystery writers.
Love P. D. James! ❤️
I got the notification for this while I was cooking dinner and had a brain wave, I think you would enjoy milk street recipes. Thier food is pretty low maintenance, not necessarily quick, but utilizing a lot of whole foods and with heavy international inspiration. It reminds me a bit a cookbook author that I think you've mentioned who wrote a cookbook that was called Jerusalem. They have cookbooks and a website that you can subscribe to, though I'm not sure how much it is a month. As an entry point though they put out a magazine and have a show that airs on mpt (pbs but make it maryland) it would probably also air on pbs or whatever the California equivalent is.
Milk Street is one of my Saturday morning treats!
I'd say "We (collectively) have a sweet tooth,"
What's cheering me up right now: it's Inauguration Day!
Free the grass!
What makes a book “literature” vs not?
I'm sorry to hear you've had loss in your family ❤️
