Mi niña bonita te quiero estoy tan orgullosa de mi niña te amo con todo mi corazón recuerda que siempre me tienes para a poyarte en to lo que pueda Dios bendiga todos tus sueños y te conserve saludable y feliz 🥰😘💛🙏
Love you, mami!! Siempre estaré agradecida con Dios por darme a ti como mi mamá ❤️ te quiero mucho mucho, siempre! Y te extraño un montón! 🥰
Bless your mother so much. My mum help me a lot too.♥
1. I'm the same way and prefer to be alone as my "home base"!
2. UGH deciding what to eat every day is the WORST. I think you'd love hello fresh or green chef, its a super fun at home date night. I recommend one of you cooks while the other cleans up :)
3. Your mom sounds amazing and I would love to hear that story one day
1. yes, I need the time to decompress.
2. it's the absolute WORST. yes I'm going to finally actually order it! good idea, ty
I've had my own place for about 5 years but here I am watching your entire video before work 😅 I love everything about moving into a new place tbh. It's such a big responsibility when you get the first and you learn so much along the way but also, it's fun. Cooking is deff where I lack!!! Haha.
Omg no way?! Congrats haha have you stayed at the same place the entire time or moved every year? I’m so curious 🤪 but yes I agree I feel like I’m definitely stil learning! Cooking for oneself is soooo hard 😂 atleast for me!
Awww Selena! I’m in tears listening to you talk about your mom. So sweet, moms are the best 💞
thank you Whitney, moms really are the best 💗🥺
hey friends 🌸 I hope you enjoy this cozy Q&A - if you have any other questions leave them below and I’ll answer as always 💗 make sure you grab your coffee/snack for this coffee for this one!
I'm now in my fourth apartment living alone - and it's by far my favorite. It's a bldg that's over 100 yrs old. I love the charm and big windows - I have so much light! I love watching apartment videos!
oh my, that sounds amazing! A huge part of the reason I'm living where I am is because of all the windows, I need good lighting to feel happy in my home
Love the Q&A! You should make a what I spend in a week! That would be helpful 😊
Oh yes I think I will make an updated one for sure 🥰
one tip that i learned in regards to paying bills/budgeting/etc., first start with creating a spreadsheet of showing what must be paid (bills - car note, rent, phone) vs what is (expenses - tv streaming services, apple music, amazon prime). then open multiple accounts and have each account dedicated to that one specific expense. so for me, i have two checking accounts, one for personal spending and one for my reoccurring subscriptions that can be canceled anytime. then i have all savings accounts for my car note, my cell phone bill, insurance, paying my credit card, and the rest of the works. The reason behind this is to split up your responsibilities, that way you can’t accidentally spend the ____ money thinking you had the funds for it but in all actuality certain transactions did not post yet and your actual balance of money available is less than currently posted. one thing i will say is to call you bank and have a cs representative open it for you and explain why, otherwise it may trigger a fraud alert on your account and you’ll be temporarily locked out.
these are great tips, thank you for sharing Tatiana
real ones here only 🤪❤️🔥 we had such similar experiences pre-living alone. Also so glad it wasn’t just me who was confused about a cashier’s check 😂 INVESTMENT PIECES such great choices and I loved your tips for minimal wall styles - I needed that support for leaving a lot of walls blank. Lastly please show us an unofficial current state of the apartment tour 😍❤️🔥 I love you so much, this literally made me so at peace this morning during my wfh day
Oh my gosh, the emotions at the end have me emotional 🥺 your gratitude and discipline will get you so far in life bb. Love you Selena
hahaha yes
Your mom is a real one 🥺❤
She really is ❤️🥺
I was recently looking for my own place but I stopped for a while because my older sister and I have chosen to move together, but as someone who did a lot of research on having my own apartment, you gave really good advice that I didn’t even think of. This was a great video! We definitely need those apartment ideas videos as well as a video on your journey! I would love to see those videos from you. Oh, and “real one”. From beginning to end as always, lol. ❤️
that is so cool that you have a sibling to move in with, I would definitely do that if I had a sister
Not me crying when you mentioned your mom. Keep going dolls, love your content and your personality. 💖🔝
Me too 🥲 honestly blessed with the best 💗
*the video about the struggles: we need it!!!!!*
Yes definitely will make a story time 💗
Real one! 💕💕💕💕 love watching your videos, showing your true self, I enjoy every min of it! I have my own apartment so definitely understand the process of taking it slow rather than spending money fast. Looking forward to your next video ideas! ✨✨✨
Thank you Lillian, you’re a real one and I forever appreciate you 💗
I just found your channel and absolutely love it! I love seeing Latinas working in government here in the DMV area! I love your mindset and hope for nothing but continued success for you!! ⭐️
Hello Maria, welcome! I’m so happy you’re here ❤️ and thank you so much! Honestly I just want to inspire and motivate and encourage other women of color to do the dang thing - wherever they choose to work! Sending love 🥰
Real One…What an awesome video? Great content as always. You definitely made me cry. You are so awesome and so wise. I give my Mom and mentors all the credit as well.
Thanks Jess, you’re def a real one and I appreciate you sm 🥺❤️ yes I think we should! It doesn’t take away from our accomplishments, I think a grateful heart is good to have
I’m more of a neutral vibe too, but love Kiva as well! Her tips are awesome! And loving the long sit down videos! :) **real one** lol yes and story time!!
You def are a real one Gina, appreciate you more than you know 💗 and yes a story time shall be coming
REAL ONE
The realest 🥲❤️ thank you so much Bre!! (Btw, im not crying, you’re crying!) 🥺
I totally agree witht he decorating thing and thati is not necessary to buy everything at once. I find it even difficult to find excatly what I need/want right away. I have been living in my flat for 2 years in December and I still do not have it fully decorated. Hahaha
You’re in a flat?! That’s so cool! And yes it brings me peace when I remember nothing is even forever, things don’t matter as much as people/ experiences 💞
I’m watching these apartment move in videos and it feels like such a treat that YOU made a video too!! ❤
Thank you for being so transparent Selena. This video helped me so much!
You're so welcome! Sending you love
Real one ! I have also come from struggles my self and just graduated high school last year, I really hope and pray that I am financially stable enough to give back to my family and live on my own one day as well. I absolutely love that you're open and vulnerable to share things, because I know it is truly impacting many people.
Hello Ndia, thank you for sharing your own story
Real one! Love this video and your energy
Thank you for being a real one, Briana, appreciate you and your support, ily
Awesome video, Selena!! 🥰I definitely relate to a lot of the stuff you said - cleaning is so much even just for one person!!! I actually just made a similar video but more focused on apartment hunting and I feel like making these types of videos are so fun to reflect on, especially about how far we've all come. I also loved the part at the end about your mom! I feel the same way. I had big apartment hunting struggles just a couple of weeks ago and my mom was my #1 supporter throughout the whole experience. S/o to all the amazing moms out there!
Thank you, Jessica
Real one 💕💕💕 I cried when you talked about your sweet mama 🥺
same, she's the best
Selena you got me over here crying on my lunch break!!! Lol ❤️❤️🥲🥲🥲 awhhh sending you a virtual hug 🤗 Your mom sounds amazing!
OMG I'm so sorry hahaha

This was really helpful! Thank you Selena!
Real one ☺️
You’re a real one, appreciate you 🥺❤️

Thanks amiga, love you too, so much!
Real one...Would love the story time about your mom and your life before your 9-5job if you want to share it.
Agree with loving being alone and just my own space, not having to ask others for their opinion ✨
Oh yes! I def want to share more in future Q&As ❤️❤️
You are so sweet, i loved the section of you talking about your mom! Moms are the BEST! Also, read her comment below..she’s so sweet! And.. hablas español!! Que padre, no me toca ver a muchos creadores que hablen español. Keep up the good work! Definitely a new subscriber here 😁
Hola!! Yes moms are the best, love her so much ❤️ y si hablo español! Pero como no lo practico todos los días ahora q estoy viviendo sola, aveces estoy un poco “rocky” hahahaha

Definitely depends on part of Oregon, I'm in the Portland metro area and it's too expensive for an apartment renting =/
For sure! It's still cheaper than DC though, you can find a 1 bedroom in the portland metro area for under $1600, that is not a thing here haha not for a 1 bedroom. MAYBE a studio haha.
Thnx 4 this Q &A im a REAL ONE 🤗😂🤣🤷🏼♀️luv u getting emotional at end about ur momma , ok stop chopping onions 😭😭 yep, best save up for first apartment..omg I got mine when I was 18yrs old a studio apartment $750 in rent while working retail ...I would say its also, good idea to invest ur money, open a small portfolio..it was the BEST dang thing I ever did in my 20's...BUT ..LEGIT u doing an Amazing job balancing everything 💯💯🍷my hero get it gurl!!🙏🏼💙P.S I like ur long videos teehee!!🤗
thank you for being a real one
I am an international student looking into apartments in Washington DC, I saw that many people living in apartment buildings like this are complaining about not being able to receive packages or their packages being stolen and bad service in the building. How do you feel about this?
I have never had this issue, but I haven’t loved everywhere. Like I mentioned in the video, it’s vital you do your own extensive research! Every place is different
Real one ❤️👍🏽
You’re a real one, thank you Esther 💗
Real One! ☺️
The realest ❤️❤️
I had to laugh at the economist not keeping a strict budget 🤣 I also have my own apartment in the DC area and had the same priorities in finding a place and totally relate to everything you said about the struggles but also benefits of living alone. I’m also originally from the PNW and work for the federal government in DC so basically we’re the same person haha
I know, I know, I'm the worst LOL I feel like I work with data ALL day long so when it comes to my personal life I only over-analyze whenever I absolutely need to :p omg we are basically the same! I've thought about going back sooner than later! I want to save up for a car and I can't do that here.
@@SelenaTrevino haha totally understandable! You can only deal with so many spreadsheets lol. When I moved out here in October 2017 I said I’d stay for five years but I think I’ve had enough and I’m ready to go back to the west coast now!
You are so deserving my love - I’m so proud of you . Btw … real one hehe
thank you, boo! forever grateful for you
Real one!
yessss a real one
