  • my hands are literally shaking as i type... i'm very scared and nervous about putting this one out there, because i don't know how you guys will receive this.
    but here's to vulnerability?
    my favorite quotes / ted talk:
    the power of vulnerability www.ted.com/talks/brene_brown...
    “No one is you and that is your power.”
    - Dave Grohl
    “If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place.”
    - Nora Roberts
    "People will kill you over time, and how they’ll kill you is with tiny, harmless phrases, like ‘be realistic.’"
    - Dylan Moran
    i love you. thank you. for listening.

    I don't think we find ourselves one day I don't think you'll ever arrive at an age and be a "concrete" person that fits in this box that's stagnant and no longer growing. I think who you are is already there, it's something you either share or don't share and that in itself is also your decision. We'll never "arrive" to who we are because YOU isn't a destination it's a journey you are yourself, the good, the bad, the ugly, the scared. Do what you love.

    • @amy_lee
      @amy_lee  7 лет назад +53

      This is so true. There's another quote (lol) that says life isn't about finding yourself, but creating yourself. I totally agree.

      I think you should do more vlogs and you trying new things. You should have a maybe spontaneous day once a month where you should just pick up your camera and do something, anything because in my opinion spontaneity is more enjoyable than practiced. I really do love your personalty. Not really in it for the fashion but for the rest that you bring to youtube: you.

    I NEEDED THIS. FUCK. I'm barely at 70k and RUclips makes me feel like trash. For the longest I felt like no one respected me unless I did hair videos. I fucking hate them but it gives me the cash to survive. People curse me out for trying to do sponsored videos.... I'm scared to be vulnerable on my channel.. There is just so much shit running through my mind right now. I just.... I REALLY NEEDED TO HEAR ALL OF THIS. I love you. I thank you. You are real 💕🙏🏿

    I've been out of college for a year and this is STILL something I'm dealing with. Adulting is hard and you're doing great! Keep moving toward your dreams and don't let anyone deter you from getting where you want. I've been a fan of yours for years and am excited to see what the future holds! xo

  • @Jenny91381
    @Jenny91381 7 лет назад +3

    I just want to say that I totally relate with you on so many levels! I am also going through a postgrad introspective and very confusing phase. I've been disappointed by many long-time "friends" and am still struggling through those "break-ups". In addition, I have some insecurities about my relationship with my boyfriend. However, I resonate with you so much on the notion that vulnerability is not weakness, but a strength. Nowadays, especially with social media, there is a social construct and demand to always be the coolest, the prettiest, perfect. If anything else, you are a failure in life. I used to think that I was a bad person when someone did me wrong, if I wasn't happy all the time, or if I did what I wanted to and not what was expected of me. Reality is, this is your life and you should live it. People will bring you down because they are hurting inside and they cope by being externally jaded and twisted. They will bring you down because it is easier than looking inside and showing their own true vulnerability to the world. So I applaud to you for your bravery, for being real, and imperfect because that is so hard to find in this generation! I used to be so scared of being lost, but now I just embrace it because being lost and genuinely searching for answers and finding your path is really living rather than pretending to know exactly where you are going or not moving at all.

    Girl you should be so proud of yourself and what you've accomplished! I've been feeling a similar way in regards to sharing more personality in fashion videos and have been scrapping so many videos that I had spent hours filming just because it didn't feel right! I've been too scared to be vulnerable but this was the inspiration I needed! So thanks for being a legend Amy ✨✌🏼️

  • @eMomoLao
    @eMomoLao 7 лет назад +144

    Hi love. I know we havent kept in touch at all after high school, but i just wanna say youve always been so sweet, and just such a genuine person. With the brains to match. You're so beautiful, and this might not mean much, but im so proud of how far youve come with everything.
    Funny thing, i was studying abroad this summer and a girl from csumb was in the same program. We got to talking about youtube and she mentioned you were one of her favorite youtubers. I thought what a small freakin world. Haha
    Anyways... Amy, i wish nothing but happiness and love for you. I love listening to you speak and have followed you under the radar for so long. Stay strong girl. Im here for you whenever, if you need someone to film or just to listen. Much love ❤️

  • @lovefrombee
    @lovefrombee 7 лет назад +11

    Oh my god girl. I applaud you for being so freakin vulnerable. Being authentic on vulnerable is hard but it is so real. And everyone watching youtube here are real people. So its really appreciated I'm sure. I've let go of so many toxic relationships this year and it has left me feeling rather lonely bc its tough. It is so tough. But toxic relationships, in the long run won't serve you. And there is nothing wrong with letting go of something that is not adding value to your life. Like you I feel like I've really lost myself and taken a massive hit after near two months of pure chaos. And getting back from that is hard slog. I've completely abandoned my blog and youtube simply because I can't find the energy to get myself through the day let alone make content I am proud of. I think getting back up and doing you takes energy and time but I know you will get there. This video was so raw and I'm really proud of you for opening up in that way. Sending you so much love and rad vibes. You got this!

  • @Sar_bear77
    @Sar_bear77 7 лет назад +81

    please please please do a video about toxic relationships and things that dont add value to your life. id love to hear what you have to say. i too am going through a breakup, the wound is still pretty fresh and im hurting everyday. im having a hard time letting go. everyone in my life says im better off without my ex, because they thought he was bringing me down. im also in the midst of losing my best friend, were going down different paths in life... would love to see a video from you!

  • @ctlightss
    @ctlightss 7 лет назад +44

    Loved everything you said, very inspiring. I've admired your authenticity for years and I think it's why you've always been one of my favorite you tubers. Honestly, I feel like just RUclips itself is in a slump. There's only so many beauty or fashion looks someone can create and when there's so many people trying to have the same "originality", it's just all too cookie cutter. I definitely don't enjoy all the same youtubers I did just a year or two ago. But RUclips has also become a place where if someone were to speak their opinion on real issues, extreme backlash comes about. So basically just don't be afraid of bringing awareness to life or being uninspired too long, we all go through it in many different aspects, I know your true self will find a way to always shine. Also, fk the haters, you know they clearly aren't satisfied with themselves or their lives that they need to put someone else down. They can talk all the crap about you wanting to do great things, but what are they doing?? Being a shitty person behind a screen. Keep doing you, you got it girl

    • @ctlightss

I like vlogs, but I absolutely love when people make a point about life through art in it's many forms. I know that's why you admire fashion citizen so much, but I think you have the power to go deeper. I'm excited for you!

I adore you because you are truly okay with showing the good and the ugly things about life, toxic friendships, breakups etc...you're not this unattainable youtuber with a picture perfect life and I love that about you. you'll always have my support girl :)

I felt so proud of you when you graduated. I felt happy when you got Komi. I feel the sadness that you feel right now.
    We will always be here for you Amy! We love you. Be strong. Broke up with a boyfriend of 7 years last year so I feel ya. It's going to be okay!

  • @LindaG97
    @LindaG97 7 лет назад +9

    THIS is what your social media presence is for Amy. I admire you so much, and no lie, I started tearing up with you. It's hard to be the center of attention and have to worry about how others perceive you. But when it's done so authentically and heartfelt as you manage to do, it's more powerful than what any haters might say. Thank you for sharing yourself with us Amy, it really is a brave thing to do. I saw your Snapchat about this going live and I had no idea what you might be hitting us with. You may be "small" in the RUclips world, but you still have a voice that can reach A LOT of people.
    I know it's weird because many of us only know you through social media and not in real life, but we're here for you girl ♥

    @alicecarter3354 7 лет назад

    wow this is crazy. for the past 5 months i have literally been going through the same thing (minus the break-up). i have been changing to fir in with other people and been wanting to mirror their personality. about 5 weeks ago my best friend came out to me and asked me what the hell was going on, why i was changing and that they enjoyed my old me a lot more. i was shocked and not in a place where i could even explain to myself what was happening but over those 5 weeks i began to notice what i was doing differently and how i loved my old self a lot more. i have been struggling to get back to where i left off 5 months ago but i am beginning to find myself in day to day life. what i want to say i just that what ever happens in your life, know that you are never alone. there are alway people who can empathise and it is so good for you that you have had the courage to come clean in this video. i am super proud of you and i know just to well what you are going though (only that i had to have my friends tell my because i was too changed already to notice myself)!
    kisses and hugs, alice

    hi amy! when i was fearing for my transition into university life, i chanced upon your college life videos, and i was so encouraged by you to a point i actually started loving university life. i find you genuinely authentic and real for the things you love and have passion for. i know you'll be able to get through each obstacles in life as long as you choose to be you. thank you for being truly you, it's so rare for youtubers to not pretend to be something they arent, and to not act like everything in life seems good. i find you so strong and wonderful, so please continue to do the things you love, we'll support you all the way!! ❤️❤️❤️

  • @xoxomimi8
    @xoxomimi8 7 лет назад +6

    Omg! Amy I feel you! Transitioning is tough. I really felt your struggle because I went through a similar experience just recently over the past year and I'm barely in the healing process knowing that things will "adjust" and I will be somewhere that I will find myself happy with. I've learned to accept and stay positive knowing that there's better things in the future awaiting. Stay true to yourself and keep being you. I almost wanted to cry with you.

As a suggestion, some of my favorite videos you post are the get ready with me videos. They make me feel super connected to you and like we're having a one-on-one conversation. Thanks for being so vulnerable. We love ya, you beautiful soul!!

    I love you Amy. I still remember I was one of your first few followers on Snapchat and you snapped me a selfie with the caption "hello". It was nice. You're so real that it's unreal, even when you don't feel it for now it's still you. I can relate to you so much about self-authenticity and vulnerability. My personal journey hasn't been easy but I am grateful for these feelings I have/had. One of my favourite words is "embrace", I think it has helped me a lot. It's a blessing (in disguise? maybe), but it'll be worth it. Always. You're a gem, Amy. We love whoever you are, all your perks and twists x

    I usually don't comment on videos but it needs to be said: thank you for showing your humanness and shedding that skin you were so afraid to show. As a Korean girl and a POC, I'm so glad that you've made your way onto this platform and shared who you are as a person. I'm definitely proud to say I'm an OG follower and I have looked up to you. I can understand the responsibility of that statement but is still necessary for you to know. It is nice to know that there is someone out there who cares enough to explain themselves to us (even though that is never necessary). To see you as a friend of ours - genuinely wanting to receive opinions/snapchats/snaptexts of your followers and friends. I am so glad that you have opened this gate and allowed yourself to be raw with us all. I think it brought us that much closer. Thank you for the sincerity wrapped up in what really seemed like a conversation from a friend who just needed to speak and be heard. Thank you for this and what it means for you, spiritually and emotionally, and what it allows us to understand about you.

  • @minidreamer24

    I can totally empathise with what you are going through, a break up, a transition while trying to find yourself again, or reconnect with yourself again and not being afraid to show the world exactly who you are as you are. Seems like you are already on the rise and that's awesome to see and very inspirational to me. Looking forward to your content :)

    I usually don't comment on videos & just silently appreciate your work by liking it. But after watching, I couldn't just hit the like button & then go away like usual. (Not that I like you crying, but in show of support for your awesomeness/vulnerability) The reason why I've been following your content for all these years (and especially loving the stuff you're doing now) is because of your personality. You are you, Amy. And even though we've only seen glimpses of what you're like irl, I think it's pretty unanimous that we think you're a pretty cool human being. (Like, I'd totally help you film if I still lived in the LA area) Your ability to be raw & genuine in front of a camera, in front of an audience is rare to find. So, please feel free to experiment with the content you make and discover how to translate your you-ness onto video. Maybe you can start with doing your take/interpretation on the Self Image video and build from there by including the bits & pieces of the other passions that you love. (If you wanna take a look at some self image videos, my personal favorite is the one by Emily Diana Ruth) One more thing. I completely understand the frustration of people only seeing one facet of your character and continually interpreting you through that lens. It took me over a year to get over that and finally pursue what I want to do. Even after taking that step, I struggled with a lot of doubt and insecurity. But my biggest takeaway from that whole experience is that my messy path/journey is my own and I'm going to make it a good one. Keep doing you cause there's no reason to be ashamed. Also, I didn't even realize I was an OG subscriber until you threw out your old username (moonriverr), haha.

    Such an honest and real video. It's scary to just show people yourself and let people in. I understand it and I'm in the same place, but your video is super inspiring. Thank you Amy!

    I used to be subscribed to A LOT of youtubers but I recently went through that tedious and time consuming process of unsubscribing to a lot of youtubers I no longer enjoy, and they happen to be mostly the bigger youtube channels that have become too commercialised, too popular and come off as less authentic. Be glad to know that you are still and have always been one of my favourites and I appreciate you even more for your rawness.

    Your courage is inspiring. I loved how you mentioned vulnerability, most won't admit it but I look for it in most. Knowing that a person can be vulnerable is a privilege, it's sets the bar for loyalty on a whole other level. So, thank you for that. Don't let the haters get you down.

    Amy, please stay strong! You were one of the first people that I subscribed to here on RUclips even though I do not make videos myself, I always looked forward to watching your videos. I have been subscribed to you since you were in high school and I am 21 years old. Thank you for sharing this video because you lifted my spirits...I'm not feeling like myself either lately. I needed to hear this from someone else. I love you 💕 DO YOU and be strong!

    How serendipitous that I came upon this vlog.
    I'm in a very similar situation where I'm trying to find myself (post grad, slowly leaving my 9 to 5 job, and really no back up plan for the next step in life)... and I can understand how raw and excruciating developing one's self can be.
    I'm truly grateful that we can share this moment together... Because in the grand scheme of things, it's really just a moment.

    Amy, I love you so much. You are literally my top 5 favorite youtubers even if you have "so little subscribers." Your personal vlogs are the hands down the most inspiring and motivating blurbs that i love to listen to. I'm really happy for you and proud of you for putting this up and going through what you're going through. It's only going to be uphill from here :)

    Amy, you're amazing! You're so brave for doing this because it's so rare seeing genuine youtubers nowadays. I've been a subscriber since your How I Style: Jeffrey Campbell video and over the years, I've seen your channel develop. I'm not going to lie, your videos in the past year or so seemed to conform more and more to the generic youtube 'style' that all fashion youtubers have. I've always admired your uniqueness and I'm sure you still have it! BE BRAVE and don't be scared to stand out!! Sending you love from New Zealand

    I'm so grateful for how open and vulnerable you have been with us.
    It's amazing to see how a person who has a pretty large fan base still be so real and raw.
    I love your videos and I'm excited to see how you continue to grow from here.
    lol I guess I had more to say than I thought.

    Amy, I have been watching you since you were in high school! Showing out fits of the day. Thrifting, living at your parents houses Always expressing yourself through fashion, then through college at UCLA. Girlfriend I am 26 years old and found your college tips vid you recently did so amazingly helpful because I have returned back to night school to study law. You have a natural gift for creating and a light truly radiates from you. You have and will always be one of my favorite you tubers because of your authenticity and creativity. Watching you get teared up but holding it together made me tear up. We love you! Whatever you decide to do, we're here for you!

    aww amy i love all your videos and i really do understand where your coming from. When i graduated i went through major anxiety, had to clear my life of old friends that weren't genuine too. It's tough but it does get better. The only way i got through it was actually facing it and focusing on myself. Just continue to do things that you love to do. I know you can get through this

I just recently discovered your channel and I’m loving your Am with Amy! Really happy to see you continued with being yourself ❤️

I relate to sooo many the things you talked about! especially about losing yourself, and trying to be your most authentic self, and also about letting go of toxic people. It really helps just listening to someone else and knowing that I'm not alone. Keep pursuing your dreams!! You are brave and awesome for going for it!

    You have every right to ask for an internship.I know this is like off from what you were talking about from the beginning but I love you and I understand your position. Just because you are a small youtuber does not change the fact that you can help them and yourself in so many ways. Look at doctors and all these other occupations that ask for an interns, they do not get paid and I see both internships having a long term goal. Aside from that, I am always going to support you and your decisions as a friend and as a fan. I'm so happy that you can open up and thank goodness for that tumblr post.

    ahh Amy I'm so happy you did this. I know this video helped you get a lot off your chest and it actually helped me to! I'm transitioning into college and I've been suppressing my thoughts/ feelings/ beliefs/ personal goals/ EVERYTHING, in order to strive for the "conventional" desk job.
    The simple quotes, videos or words of advice you give really help a lot of people. I hope you can come to a point of complete comfort with everything you're struggling with. I'm happy to support someone so genuine and so invested in what they do, as well as those who support them. ilysm❤️

    This was so inspiring, I have only been following you for the past few months but as soon as I heard you talk I was hooked. You say you haven't felt like yourself for a while but I still felt your genuine personality. I have just moved to America from England and I married my best friend here last minute, he works a 9-5 and I cannot work. It's very hard staying motivated, staying positive when I have no friends or family here. Hearing what you said about getting through things and how what's meant to be will be is so TRUE and it was so nice to hear this again. This was a great way to start my morning. I look forward to seeing content you love to make gurl x

Just keep going and follow your passions! Love you so much!

    one mo thing hunny: HOW TO FIND YOUR AUTHENTIC SELF- connect w/ your inner child. think of what you wanted to do when you were young. As a child, that is when you are most authentic. Think about it- children do/say whatever they want because they haven't been tainted yet by society/etc so maybe spend a week at your parents home and just relax n chill and just find what makes you happy and ta-da u gon find wat makes u "authentic" ah ah ah U WELCUM
