#collegediaries #weeklyvlog #collegeweekinmylife2022
i can slowly see you evolving into your best self with each video. very refreshing and exciting ti go along with you
Yes same ☮️💟☯️
I kinda wish college youtubers talked more about dating in college, being black at a PWI, the fact that college literally flies by, and learning how to be okay with feeling like you're not going enough
As a current highschooler it’s refreshing and inspiring to see you grow throughout your vlogs and show us your college life. Love ya queen!!
I would love you to maybe touch on how a professor/teacher assistant can really make or break certain classes. Maybe you can also talk about how hard it is to make friends as a commuter going to college while having a job. Im currently in my first year of college and while I wouldn't say its been horrible, I definitely haven't had the "best" experience. I work 20+ hours a week and go to school (currently taking 16 credits), so it's already hard enough making friends, but it seems like theres such a difference between commuters and people who live in dorms.
love how you’re soo raw !! this is my first year in college and honestly it’s been hard but watching your videos gives me peace of mind and reassured me that i’ll be okay 💗!
🥺🤍🤍🤍
Yay class of 2025 here too!
can you also talk about building the discipline to go to classes and actually stay on top of work when the motivation is gone. Or how to respark the love for your major after you've contemplated it
i’m from new jersey and unc charlotte has been my dream school for years and i recently applied. just by the things that their social media accounts have posted this months makes me happy to see how inclusive they are to the black community, through different events and clubs and the things that you mentioned. i also noticed they are really gender and lgtbq+ inclusive! 😊
i absolutely love it and they really make sure everyone is accounted for/taken care of!
I think a really good topic to talk about would be the "loneliness you experience when you don't fit in the whole "college experience' life. I'm not sure if you have experienced this as a college student but I'm a freshman at UNCC and because I don't like to party, drink, smoke, everything of that sort, I definitely feel "lonely" in a way. Like instead of going out to a party on a Saturday night, I'm always in the dorm watching TV, while my roommates are out. It's not that I'm not a social person(because I'm definitely am) , but a lot of people I've met are into that stuff and I'm just not. While I'm only 19, I've kinda passed that stage. My idea of fun is bowling, going out to eat, skating, things like that but very few people are into that. Especially at our PWI
Loved every second of it. don't ever overwork yourself.
💯‼️
I'm currently on a gap year, I love your college diaries because I feel like I'm actually learning what to expect in august and understand that it's not always going to be easy and that's okay.
As a 24 year old that is trying to figure out life outside of work to avoid constant burnout... definitely glad to hear younger adults are trying to understand this sooner ❤️ Definitely hope colleges lean more towards having college students learn this!
Yessss!! Time to chill and relax. All i have to say i am proud you aliyah and will countine to say that because u deserve it. All your hardwork will payoff conutine to shine queen love u🤍
thank you so much ❤️
The hardest part of college was when I was a freshman and struggled to find community and friends. This go round in my junior year I’m doing a lot better at talking to people around me
I still haven't found mine tbh. I go to class and then back to my apartment & that's all lol
me, since college is next for me, i'd love to see:
1. How you study?
2. How you knw the school to go? School searching?
the second one i rlly want to knw cause im struggling here sis😭
The vibe of these vlogs are just🥰❤️
so glad you enjoy!
I just want to let you know that you have always been able to get me out of my little depression episodes you’re my literal comfort you tuber I love you so much thank you so much for always pushing me your videos always give me motivation much love to you❤️ I even started reading again I recently got diagnosed with a mental illness and it’s been hard on me but your videos always manage to make me happy God bless you
I love the college diaries its so cool and its kind of a realistic way of seeing the college lifestyle! :D
i am officially obsessed with aliyah’s vids🤍
Your editing is just … *chefs kiss 🤌🏾❤️
so glad you enjoy it!
i’m actually obsessed with these vlogs, like fr🤍
❤ Thank you for talking about your college experience. I graduated in December and honestly I don't feel like my experience was 0-100...more like a constant 50. 😅 I wish people would talk about feeling like they are behind or left out more. College is different for everyone, but I am still grateful for the experience.
I agree with the statement that college is different for everyone. Im in my second year and I like it but its okay, not bad but not great lol
watching your video helps me not be so scared to go off to college a lot of you tubers only show the fun and excitement i love that you show the realness and as someone with really bad anxiety i can relate to you a lot.
Heyy, I have college content on my channel as well if you want to cgeck it out. My college life is definitely realistic, my vlogs are another way if seeing what college is like. I'm not very social in college tbh
aliyah’s vlogs get better and better
please talk about building an adult resume! my food service experience can only do so much, and idk what to put on my resume to make me applicable to internships and adult jobs fr
I've been watching your videos since quarantine and honestly watching u makes my day brighter
🥺🤍
It's really embarrassing and I'm ashamed to admit it, but Shrek 2 had me absolutely HOLLERING at my big age!!! 🤣🤣🤣😭🥴
ITS SO GOOD PLSSS
shrek 2 is legit my favorite movie and always will be its so nostaglic
girlllllllll, I really enjoyed listening to you talk fr you speak to my SOUL. i am currently in community college and working part time and chileeee all i can do is worry about what i’m doing and my future. i want to transfer and major in marketing( really enjoyed hearing you speak about your personal thoughts on the major and things) and i am LITERALLY stumped on if transferring is worth it or not. This time period is such a weird one cause i’m growing and learning so much but still not enough at the same time ??? but, you inspired me to look at things differently and keep moving at my own pace. love you lots aliyah
i live for the college diaries!! love your content always. sometimes wish you posted more but i understand that private + work balance is priority. just gotta live your energy everyday within and rewatch old vids. sending good vibes 🌷💌🦋✨
Hey, I started a college diaries series if you want to check them out! I have 2 episides right now and episode 3 otw thus Saturday. I love aliyah's videos, I've been watching her for a long time & she inspired me to start mine.
I love u and ur videos. U are so very inspiring and you love your supporters. We love u aliyah ❤❤❤
that bathroom tangent literally changed my life
being quiet for at least an hour after waking up in the morning >>
it’s a requirement 95% of the time!
Love how genuine and real you are with us! Your videos are the best!💗
SO EXCITEDDD!!!! I LOVE YOU ALIYAHH!!💗💗💗💗
They were breaking it down like it was the last day but I loved to see it and the mixer ✌🏽✌🏿✌🏻🤎
The only right way to start a new week 🤝🤝
"I'm gonna watch lunch in my car....i mean NO" I say stuff wrong like that ALL the time. 🤣
Aliyah + Euphoria= heaven 😭
cant believe today is the last day 💔
YOU CAN’T TELL ME DIFFERENT 😭
The college stuff I think I needed before I went in 2018, but most of my favorite youtubers are younger than me or didn’t go to college 😭 but I agree it would be amazing if more college youtubers talked about those things
Let me make a channel😂😂😂 cus college was stressful for me
I love your college diaries series!!! After watching your video it definitely set my mind at ease. Your video definitely opened my eyes to know I'm going in the right direction when it come to my education. :) I've also learned that it is not going to be easy but I will get it done!!!
Just started getting back on watching RUclips again since August AND OMGGG YOUR CONTENT IS SOOO AMAZING ahhh love you Aliyah!!
Hey Aliyah I know im seeing this video late so you probably won't see this but i wanted to let you know watching your video gave me the push I needed to start up on some schoolwork I needed to get done tysm!!
I used to watch ur vids like crazyyy and i stopped but i think imma start bnc ur attitude is eliteeee
you actually inspire me to keep going with school ♡!
Just what i was looing for 💕
YES I LOVED SHREK 💚 1 and 2!!! Bc usually movies suck on the second round it’s a rarity 😄
U growing so much I love to see it. Girl your so genuine your videos are so aesthetic luv u!
when you brought up unspoken advice about college on internships i FELT that. i’m currently a senior going to school for graphic design and i am worried that if i take any internships i will be unpaid or overworked for my art and skill
Always love your videos!! God bless💗
wow Aliyah - this was great and very much needed 🙌🏽 💕
same i always pressure myself and im still in high school there is zero reason why i shld stress myself like this but sometimes you just gotta push through
Aliyah is the best when it comes down to calming videos.
the black owned businesses to support section>>>
Yes please talk about paying for college!!!
Loving your content
I'm a college youtuber and I too feel like we should be more open about what college is REALLY like. Everyone isn't going to have the same college experience & as the saying goes: "college is what you make it". With that being said, I do need to be more involved with my school and other people who are like me, here at my PWI. My school does make efforts to have all inclusive events, and minority events, etc. We have a good percentage of people of color at my school that I should be more involved with.
I love this new aesthetic on your channel!
Girl I love Panda Express I love the chow mein the honeymoon shrimp orange chicken the spring rolls the potstickers
no hate but as an asian i just . why
you gotta that home cooked chinese food if you havent cuz that shit is good asf
I’ve been considering going back to school because I miss the learning community and the familiarity of being around other college students. I dropped out last year and just took the remaining year to figure out what I want and what I’m doing. Lots of ups and downs I tell ya! But the segment when you spoke about the high expectations on teens I relate(although I'm 20 - age between teen and young adult). I had a conversation with a fellow student coworker and it opened my eyes a lot, I’m gonna save some money this year and go back next year. That’s the plan. The pandemic robbed me of my transition from high school to college and I really want to go back.
It’s time to vibe with it 😊
It’s so crazy that I’ve been already watching your videos for 3 years! Covid made time really fly by!
wow!
I want you to talk about how you balance out RUclips and college and like how to study and stay on top of your work. I also want you to talk about how you do RUclips and how to like start out and stuff like that and how to come up with video ideas or something or how to grow your channel
yes i used to be obsessed watching shrek 1 & 2 it still the best movie
navigating school and clubs
Shrek 2 is literally a cinematic masterpiece
I love all the Shrek movies the first one is my favorite.
For a setting spray try the elf coconut milk hydrating setting spray its sooo good and gives my skin a healthy glow!!🤍🤍
building an income outside if school is a good topic too
omg i love sao it’s my favorite anime now i want to rewatch it again lol
Random assortment of things I wanted to comment throughout the video:
-Not u going on a whole appreciation rant about shreeekkk😂😂
-Looooved SAO season 1, but season 2?? I lost interest and literally keep forgetting what episode I stop at, so I have to reeeewatch them all just to end up with the same 'losing interest, stops watching, rewatches everything when I'm interested' cycle
That butter bronzer is really good I haven't used it in a long time
see this is my favorite notification every sunday
Me too 💀
Me 15 secs in: …ooh this is a an Aliyah production 😍 your editing skills … top tier🤌🏾 … like tippy top
I’m living that now my job is not my life! And I low key felt like my job was taking a big part of life and then my family took a part and I tbh didn’t have shi.
🙄😔😕
Okay girl
Yess
Striving for an Aliyah Aesthetic life >>>:

Another great video!
Shrek 2 is definitely top tier 🤝
Omg! You were at Sovi that night too, I would’ve loved to meet you! 😊
i’m always on campus so hopefully we run into each other!
notif gang ‼️
@Aliyah Simone I know you don't talk about this but have you ever thought about making a video talking about financial advices and how you take care of your money?
i’ve thought about it but i don’t think i would be too comfortable doing so :(
I’m deadass like getting ready for a performance and stopped to see your video. #priorities
Heyyy❤️❤️❤️
hii Aliyah ,
i really loveee watching your vids., just wanted to say that
thank you for this video 💖
You: Talkin’ bout how we shouldn’t talk before 8 or 8:15
Me: Watching this video at 7:30 lol
oh, so the one time I don't go to Sovi you're there. I'M PISSED!!!!
Hiii 💛
People on social media that are in college, doesn’t show the trials and tribulations of college. Yeah they do over romanticize college, and don’t show the TRUE struggles of college life. They don’t show the constant major changes that people do, they don’t show what it’s like to fail a college test, etc. people on social media doesn’t show how stressful and anxiety building college can really be. I’ve been through it. When it comes to leaving college, you’re gonna be COMPLETELY lost. It feels like you’ve been thrown to the wolves, having to teach yourself how to survive in the real world.
exactly why i wanna talk about more stuff like this!
@@aliyahsimone yes please do! It’ll show future college attendees the true, raw experience of college life.
For someone that is going to college soon, I would love advice on how to connect with a teacher, because a lot of ppl tell me that the professors don't help you with anything and that you are basically on your own. Could you ever go to a teacher for help or tutoring?
Not for tutoring but yes for help. Professors would love to help you! I don’t like that it’s a stereotype cus it prevents students from truly succeeding.
@@anavi222 okay tysm🖤
Owww I'm finally early!!!
I agree with college videos lacking important topics. Choosing a major and a job after college are important, but what about the transition from being out of high school going into college? One minute you go from being a child to a whole a*s adult within 3-4 months and that’s pretty scary. I wish YT was poppin when I was going to college because I was metaphorically lost. I also wanted to congratulate you on finding a major you like and YAY for choosing one in humanities and media! I got my Bachelor’s in English with a minor in Spanish and did post-grad in Education (I wanted to be a journalist in L.A. or a teacher overseas). I think it’s the Gemini trait in always excelling in communication and art.
ponytail giving aliyah grande 😍
What’s the link to that bonnet? About 34 seconds in.
what are you majoring in? Ohh i heard it.
and sis the last part of you talking is so true about major
Heyy 🙂
I see my frat 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
YEAHHH
Do you have a study timetable I feel like I don’t spend as much time studying (I do study) but I don’t think I do it enough and i think it’s because I value my friends a bit more than my education I don’t know I feel like I’m just in a very confused spot (for context I’m a first year in university in Dublin, Ireland also I’m a law student)
