I feel sometimes people just need to give themself permission to make the changes in their life that they've been thinking about. You truly are free to change your path at any moment, and it makes life so exciting. Wonderful video, I have no doubt you will make it on youtube as well. In a sea of noise, it's like hearing an old favorite song. That quality and warmness to it will never go out of style. & Happy Birthday!
🥹🫂❇️🪄 the warmth and familiarity your comment gave me! thank you for truly witnessing me. bc totally!!! the older i get the more i love how bizarre and amazing and totally unexpected life can be. it takes one to know one 🩵
it took 3 seconds to realize that half the reason to continue watching was the good camera work and quality LOL, ofc the perspective shared is valuable too (as a soon to be 28 year old) but this does high quality scenes/footage without feeling like gentrified RUclips, good stuff
This was lovely. I myself am in this season as a 30 year old and I've never really just let myself say, "This is okay." I'm always stressed about making money after growing up in poverty and recently found myself out of a job after being incredibly mentally ill for the past few years. I have a degree I'm not using and I'm genuinely kept up at night (it's literally 3 AM right now) stressing about money, finding a spouse, a place to live, finding my calling, etc. Feeling behind is second nature at this point, but I like the way you spun it. We are so finite in an infinite universe, so who's to say I am too late or too early to find who I am supposed to be? Maybe, I am right on time.
😭😭 your last line gave me goosebumps. you are right on time indeed… one day it will all make sense. please check back with updates every now and then okay? i’m rooting for you 🥹💖
Time is a construct, stay present write and read your goal everyday in a planner and the steps you are gonna take every to reach it. Plan your days, and it won’t feel so chaotic and out of control. And we give ourselves the timeline, it doesn’t exist. And have no expectations just take things as they come, best advice I can give. Also get out of the “worst case scenario” mentality. Life just infolds around us, the stress comes from our lack of control, just let life happen, sometimes it will be bad and you learn the most from those moments. And when it’s good, take time to appreciate it in the moment.
I love this comment, thanks for sharing! I feel you, with the growing up in poverty thing. When I am not doing anything to make money or work on my career, it feels like a waste of time. Because I've felt so unsafe growing up, I'm now trying to make up for that. It's just a mental thing.
I just turned 30 two and a half weeks ago. I was depressed when comparing my life to my peers. They all were ahead of me financially and I felt as though I was being left behind. After a solid week of feeling terrible I came to the conclusion that if I am not happy with where I am at, I am the only one who can change it. I have decided to make positive changes in my life and to be proud of who I am. I am glad to see that I am not alone in this and hope anyone that reads this knows that too. Enjoy life every second you can, if you don't like where it's heading only you can change it.
it wasnt until I was at my lowest at 26, that I finally allowed myself to just exist. Even though I was the saddest I had ever been, I didnt care what anyone thought of me anymore. I didn't have anything else to lose. Funny enough, that was when things actually started working for me. My career started to shine, regardless of whatever attention I got. Because I finally understood that there was nothing else in the world more important than what was inside my own brain on the morning of each and every single day. In those small moments. In those pieces of silence that let me just.. be. Reducing the scope of your world, will also reduce all the pressure and failure. It makes all the small things doable.
Omg this was posted on my 29th birthday! This felt like my inner self narrating the video. I went to college because it was what I felt I had to do, and changed careers 5 times in my 20’s trying to find personal fulfillment. Despite the corporate mentality telling me that I’m “behind” I wouldn’t trade my journey for the world!
Wow... Im 30 years old and i aleays feel behind. Had my heart broken, lost my path in art, let down my fans, lived overseas and i almost ended my journey myself at several points. I live at home with my parents and i dont do much. Im trying to get into my happiness maybe doing youtube and continuing my comic or even making a comic company but im also unsure... Thanka for sharing this though it made me feel a lot better though some paths of thinking are still heavy kn my mind. Despite being 30, single, dealing with a hand injury and mental illnrss im still here.. thank you for this truly
is it just me or are a lot of people around this age realizing that using your degree to work for other people for 40 yrs isn't realistically sustainable? I quit a job because of a bad boss and been out of work for a year and a half and now it seems like hustling on my own is my only choice, even with a degree and experience..
I'm also 29 this year and feel like life is getting more gray every year. I'm letting go of all my hopes and dreams and all that other nonsense that holds us back and rather just letting myself not care about me and my identity anymore and just enjoying life and doing what I love. I think the problem for all of us starts after uni when we have this belief that we need to BE somebody and each year we put more and more pressure on ourselves. This is silly. Let go of the future so you can just appreciate life now. The future and the past are literally only thoughts - why let thoughts devalue your experience. Sometimes there's pain standing in the way of presence, then be present with that pain. everything is temporary, including joy and pain so just be present with everything, that's true appreciation of life.
I cried at this and it's exactly what I've been struggling with all month. I turned 26 last month and 25 was such a hard year. It finally started to get better and I felt so stagnant and like I wasted all of my potential and I disappointed the universe or wasted all of my former teachers' time somehow. I finally started to recover from those feelings today, and your video drove it home. Thank you
Holy shit the cinematography and storytelling is AMAZING. This was able to allow me to self reflect and realised that we arent that different. Chasing for academic validation knowing that this wasn't something i wanna do really does suck. I am not yet ready to take the risk and i am glad you are able to. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
turning 27 this year and I feel very much like i am late with every new thing I want to try. this put it into perspective for me! thank you and happy birthday.
Ah, us turning 28 is the same feeling! Crazy that a lot of folks our age and younger feel that way. Social media does a great job of showing you the best parts of other people's lives but without all the hard parts. You are doing great! Life develops at your own pace, never forget that.
thank you so much 🥹💖💖 i think we will always feel like we’re never doing enough. and that is something worth appreciating too about our humanity. it is after all what drives us to evolve and grow. ❣️❣️ thank you both for being here!
Wow, just wow! I stumbled upon your video and I'm speechless. I'm also turning 29 this year and sometimes I feel like my younger days are getting left behind. Since 2020, I've no longer feel much joy in some things that I wanted to pursue. I have an affinity of making videos and photography, but I struggle when I compare myself with others. I feel like I'm not at the right place while at the same time, I need to work because I need money and I also need to work on myself. Your video is pure art, loved your style and the way you made an honest message. I don't know you but I felt an actual joy that you're now making what you like to do. I also think that everything happens for a reason. So thank you Min!
🥺🥹 wowwww thank you soso much for sharing.. i’m so glad you could resonate with the video so much! thank you for being happy for me..! imagine the joy you will have when you decide to do/make what you like to do as well 🥹💖💖💖
I never really understood that uni required so much money just to learn and have life experiences. I always feel like that i couldn’t relate to wanting to go to an uni bc all i wanted is to do art. I can’t justified spending money on something that won’t be all about art. You’re the second person to say that attending uni is like a socio economic ladder or a status in society that you’re worthy of having a higher education. Honestly that makes so much sense and answers to my suspicions on why uni is not all that great. This video is so cool, it’s like a film. Also, happy birthday, min!
thank you so much!! 🥹 and exactly! hahahah. but i’m also grateful that uni taught me to be so discerning as well. at the end of the day, always prioritise your joy & excitement. your body always knows!
the camera work, details, and storytelling in this video are just... chef's kiss!! I graduated recently from university feeling the pressure that I needed to check all these boxes... but we're all truly going at our own pace ❤
I find you to be very inspiring. As someone younger, in similar predicaments, from an Asian heritage... I can relate to you a lot. I find myself constantly rewinding certain parts of your videos because I admire and am inspired by how you edit it. I know nothing, and I love that someone like you can show the way for younger people like me through sheer creativity. I believe at the consistent rate you're going, there is no reason why RUclips wouldn't be promising. Thank you for sharing your perspective of the world.
I used to feel jealous of younger people and babies. They get to experience life anew. So much time ahead of them. Eventually, I felt so thankful to grow up in a time without social media, smartphones and toxic politics everywhere. Many of us are lost. But not forever. And some of us will find each other in the dark. Good luck to you all. Godspeed to you, SeeMin.
Your work is magnificent! As a film student no little detail goes unnoticed it's such a work of art. I'm happy to be here from the beginning of your journey and I can't wait to see you get the recognition you deserve
this feels really inspirational. ive only just turned 18 and it feels like the world wants me to know what i want to be right this instant. but i have no idea! i know im going to move early next year to a new city and im incredibly excited for where that journey takes me. ive discovered that going with the flow had really helped me a lot. ive just started doing things because i can and it feels freeing :)
Needed this and honestly as a early twenties girlies who’s felt “behind “since I turned 19 ,I needed the reminder that I’m not behind and that my journey is uniquely my own. I’m only a failure if I give up and it’s ok if my life goes through ebbs and flows. I’m doing good and so is everyone else in our crazy journey we all call life.😊 let’s enjoy our present and make the most of it😊🎉
Happy birthday Min! I was touched by the last part, that I almost started bawling. When both of my closest friends went to college, I felt behind, lost, as if I was walking in their shadow. I wasn’t given the perfect opportunities or resources to get into college. So I reflected, and reflected and you are absolutely right that everyone’s paths are different. I just needed to be honest with myself, that life isn’t linear as we want it to be. Patience is all I need tho, we will get there eventually.
That feeling of loss unfortunately compounds when you get older. I find as I am going into my 30s, the friends I once had in college and graduate school all move on with their lives. The plus out of all this is the ability to discover new friends wherever you go and move in life. Remember, you are never truly alone even though you may feel that way. Cheers!
Wow amazing video. I love your production style and the message hits close to home. I just turned 24 and consistently think about my purpose, and increasingly feel frustrated that I haven’t found it. This video validated my experience, thanks.
Turned 29 in December. I've been an environmental scientist, a writer, a gig-worker--and I've only just recently began what I hope to be a permanent settlement in the field of data science. Thank you for the giving us a glimpse at your own beautiful journey--and best of luck here on YT! Subscribed!
This is absolutely beautiful, both in visuals and in message. Thank you for sharing this, going on 27 this year and I've just gone through the worst year of my entire life. Sometimes I feel like it'll never get better, but I try not to give up because of stories like yours.
this vid was suchhh a journey both artistically and story wise. so so beautiful! love to see where the journey of life takes you and here's to trying new things that serve you
Thank you for this lovely video... I wrote out all the crazy adventures and experiences I have had the last decade. I'm 30 this week, I remember my last year taking stock as this year I'm going to find someone, to settled down with. This birthday I am happy and glad to be a cat lady, although recognising I'm lonely. I started nursing school dropped out at 18 as the hospital were mistreating patients due to extreme staff shortages. I cried for a week straight giving up my dream, but couldn't be in that system. I studied horticulture instead, got a severe knee injury mid-programme, my dumb ass started a funded phd programme, the pandemic/ supervisor stress caused me to take a step back, I started working a cleaner in the local hospital mid-pandemic, was moving to being a cna/ hcsw full time (in house pandemic style quickly trained) I was loving it. I've got injured with a back sprain - hypermobility takes a longer recovery, so now I'm trying to finish up the research degree, but am depressed. I did an ikigaki test, I love being around people, and seeing helping them get better. I think I may take a couple of years working to save up, have a big cycling adventure. Then I will try for a nursing degree whilst working as a hcsw (the government pays for it) or there's a graduate entry school for medicine (which the government pays the last year if you do the first). I'm just trying to work out which is most future proof for joint issues. Dang isn't life difficult, and non-linear!
What you have is the freedom to choose and as much as I love what you're saying and want it to be true. For a lot of people, it is just not the reality and unfortunately some people are genuinely stuck or behind in life. Some people have the best parts of their life stolen by someone else. It's important to recognize that so we can allow them to begin to understand and get some momentum, possibly freeing themselves for real. That's just my opinion anyway. Still an absolutely beautiful video though and everything you're saying for the majority is true.
Hey, I’ve been watching for almost a year now and I’m amazed by your growth. I can tell you’re really putting so much effort into these and the results are jaw dropping. I hope you keep at it you’re doing great!!
I’ve been living with depression and anxiety for more than a decade and I relapsed 6 months and rotting in my bed most days. I recently received an ADHD diagnosis, which is life changing because I always knew something was wrong with me ever since I was a little girl. It is a such relief having answers to explain my feelings of being directionless in life. I will be turning 40 this year and I feel behind as ever trying to find my purpose in life 😔
Oh my heart, thank you for creating and sharing this with us. I’m crying right now because this hit me so hard. The tears are very bittersweet but I also feel way more hopeful after watching this. Ty ❤
This is my first video I’ve seen from you, SeeMin, and I’m immediately subscribing. It’s not just the cinematography and story behind it all, but the resonance. I, too, am 29 this year. I, too, am facing a reckoning of sorts with myself as several aspects of my life is going through a refresh. I, too, look at RUclips as an endeavour (tho, video editing and prod is a lot!). Happy birthday to us, and I can’t wait to be a part of witnessing your growth here! 🎉
This is legitimately one of the best youtube videos I’ve ever seen. I cant imagine how much time and effort went into this. Thank you for sharing this with us, I wish you so much success and so many more eyes on your work!
"Self-honesty is the greatest act of self-love I can give myself." Something I understand, but something I struggle every day with providing myself with. I find myself often times knowing what I need to feel happiness, but deny myself it by ignoring my internal compass for the sake of others' well-being. Also, you have phenomenal video editing skills. Keep at it! You will be successful.
you're gonna make it big. I just know it. Happens with every small creator I find and subscribe to. The algorithm brought me here so it'll bring others here too and they'll stick around because your content is incredibly produced!! You're unique and creative and likeable and real. Keep at it ❤
I'm so glad RUclips recommended me this video. I'm in my 20s and I'm starting to realize that the existential crisis is probably something everyone goes through at this age. I'm just so glad I'm not alone. Thank you so much for producing and living your life at its fullest, not only for you but for all of us you became an inspiration ❤
Oh I really needed to see this! I am sooo confused what to do with my life and so unhappy in my studies. I am scared of not being able to fulfill my dreams. I am scared of being forced into the working-life after graduation even tho I feel mentally so strained. I am scared of never feel good again. Somehow it confuses me how so many people I see online explore, change careers, be free ... yet most people my age have it more figured out than me. And even tho i live in a western society, they still tell us to finish our studies, get a job etc. Somehow it is a clear sign of failure to drop out of a college course or to change careers. And even tho I am always admiring people who are just themselves and who have an unique path of life - the underlying judgement of society still affects the expectations I have on myself. In one way I don't want to fail to be "normal", in the other want to have a "better life than they" - means stil being excited for life, being free, not going the "boring" route. So conflicting. If anyone know a place to exchange about those struggles - I would love to since I don't know people who inspire me or who are going throught the same.
wowwww, I've never related to something more. It's such a freeing feeling to just let go of the old you and just embrace new experiences...really love and appreciate yourself more. Amazing video!
This is one of the most entertaining youtube videos that i have watched in a WHILE , like its so hard for me to focus on watching youtube videos nowadays thanks to shorter videos oof, i used to binge watch youtube all the time but not anymore. This video is amaizng and i will be rewatching to remind myself it's ok to change and infact it's healthy and what we should inspire to as humans. Thank you for the reminder and quality video! 🧡
I absolutely love the old-school summer vibe this video had and I agree with your message. I'm turning 28 this year as well and I am also starting from absolute 0. I'm rooting for the both of us ✊
Thank you, I am 26 this year, and was feeling really lost because I am not yet where I thought I would be. I needed to hear this :) (also the cinematography is so good, I love all the details you and your team put in!)
I was always that A+ student until a year before getting into college. And now 22 here, feeling lost, not knowing what to do. I lost my passion for everything at 18. This year graduating college with two degrees (both in humanities) but I don't know actually what I want to do. I have been drawing since I was 8 or 9, I love art and humanities but I also love chemistry and science (I didn't study any science degree). Even thought to study medicine at 23 because I want to be "useful" to the society. Because I was so lost this year. I needed something very strong to gain my passion for anything again. Or I don't know. Maybe I don't have any skills and I 'm not fit to this society anymore. Love the cinematography by the way. It was lovely
Shit. I started crying at the end. I can’t begin to describe how many bad times I’ve have these last 6 years. But fortunately I don’t have half the things to deal with atm, but there’s still a ton I’m trying to figure out. I needed to watch your video today, thanks
Happy birthday Min! Great message. I felt that way about doing portrait and wedding photography. It served a purpose once in my life but I grew out of it. Great work!
@@smxne yes that’s me. Or you can just call me Wes! But I am at a better place. That’s kind of what made me go head and start vlogging this year! I’ll be talking about it at a later date!
That was an amazing video! I can very much relate to your message. I never had the courage to just do what feels right to me. Last year I was living in Singapore and life was pretty much all planned out. Yet, this year everything is different. I have finally decided to go all out and follow my heart. I honestly really miss Singapore (German food and winters suck lol) but finally I am acting authentically. And even if that decision turns out to be a mistake, at least I tried! Much love to you!
this comment hits 😭🥲😭 i think singapore just has this effect on you… but our body always knows what’s best for us lies beyond the comfort we’re in. it must be tough transition for you. im rooting for you!!!
This is literally a masterpiece. I love how inspiring and motivating this was while being entertaining and engaging as well. Best of luck on your RUclips channel and Happy Birthday to us!!
this is the best edited and shot video i've seen on youtube in years. it makes the message so much more impactful and meaningful. thank you min, for bringing this beautiful piece of art to life and sharing your story :)
I'm 34 this year and I was sick since I was 10 both physically and mentally ill. Only recently started getting my health fixed and I feel lightyears behind my peers, even my dumbest and laziest peers because simply showing up with a healthy body means outpacing someone who can't even show up. I still want to chase all the things I haven't been able to get because giving up means no longer having a reason to live. I hope this year will be different and I finally feel some positive momentum forward because I've been stuck for decades.
I just watched the first 0:46 seconds and I came here to say that this is immediately very refreshing. It's nice to see someone put such a creative spin on their content. It really draws you in. Gonna continue now. :)
I thought it was really sweet and it did click for me. I love your style. Usually I watch videos where people talk really fast and usually people not talking fast enough annoys me more than it should, but this video was so well paced! It was just chill, I loved the energy and you took your time to talk and it was a thousand precent worth it just listening. Right now I'm 25 and not doing great so seeing that graph gave me a big chuckle. Subscribed for the good vid and the great talent!!
Ur camera work, how it ties in with your message, and use of 4:3 are genuinely unexpected and unique, I genuinely enjoyed this, never seeing anything you’ve made before
This was something I needed to see. I'm just trying to take things slowly and trying to be more growth-oriented than goal-oriented. Since failure to meet those "goals" can potentially cause self-doubt and take power away from yourself (heard that in a TED talk). I'm also on the journey of trying to learn self-love. Glad to see your growing, and I hope the same is with anyone who reads this comment. This video was so wonderfully produced too! Thanks for this!
Wow. I feel like this video was like meant to be seen (from my POV at least) at this time in my life. Recovering from 3 longs years of struggling, last year being the absolute worst since I almost ended this mortal suffering by my own hands. Working to getting where I want this year no matter what. Thank you for sharing your experience with us all. It's given one more person in this big world some hope for the future.
Discovered your channel recently through the algorithm and am so glad that RUclips took me here! Always so in awe at the quality of your video, cinematography, and the story you tell. Cant wait to continue to see your channel grow, it definitely will💗!
I stumbled upon this video on the night before my birthday, and I really appreciate the message! I like that you clearly aren't doing this for the money but the passion of the videos you make and the message you are trying to convey! 💜
Just getting into the agricultural industry at 22 and I feel so far behind where I want to be. I wish I had sorted out most of my trauma and issues 5 years ago and started what I’m doing right now. It’s really a shame what the past can do and how much it affects the now. Trying to forgive my younger self for having so many issues but I’m also congratulating him for surviving so I can be myself today. Just sucks when you know you’re where you wish you were 5 years ago.
Very interesting outlook on life you got. I am personally changing a lot about myself recently and i too could not escape this feeling of being behind, having missed out on life. Especially when it comes to dating and friendships, never did the former and just started building the latter for a year now. It is not much but it feels like a mountain looking at the place i started from.
Man I felt like such a mess up when I had to come back home because my plans didn't pan out the way I expected them to, and had to start college all over again at 24, then again I wouldn't trade the life experiences for anything
the artist, the storyteller and the visionary that you are!! this was a joy to watch❤ I too went through a similar experience, even the university's leave of absence. I despise that I had to choose a path so soon. as children, we're taught to work towards that dream career. it's implied like once you've reached that, it'll be happily ever after but that's not true.. there'll be more life after that. as adults, we're told successful means wealth, perfect family, peak of career ladder. but what if I don't want success? I recently found my calling, and I'm slowly figuring out how to work towards it. however even if you don't have one, I don't see the problem. living, breathing, being human is powerful enough. I think, truly, to be in the present, to appreciate what we have in our surroundings is the best purpose of living
I started thinking about time differently as well. I used to be scarred but now i think time is on my side because as long as i don't give up at exploring life and improving myself, my life will keep on growing. I'm currently studying Korean which is pretty hard but i take solace in knowing that if i keep practicing it with time i will get better at it. Also i really loved the way you shot your video. It felt like watching a short movie.
It's my legit birthday today and the algorithm blessed me with this - this is exactly what I needed to hear and it's so beautifully executed! I wish you luck in all of your future ventures (to whomever is reading 💖).
Although this is just about 7 mins long- I’m sure this took quite awhile to create!! I feel like I’m watching a short movie film?? The quality and your skills in cinematography- is out of this world. I’ve never seen a YT video with quality as great as this one 🤌🏾✨
Never seen cinematography so unique, and so amazing to see a Singaporean creator share these important themes of life. Subscribed and looking forward to more!:)
hey, this video was insanely lovely. like, you're editing and cinematography is such a surprise to see. i felt so caught up in every shot, just because of how thoughtfully put together everything felt. really wonderful stuff! also this message hits me very close to home, so thanks for sharing your story. i'm really excited what you do going forward, since I'll definitely be sticking around 🙂
First. Your filmography is awesome. Secondly, birthdays have always been tough for me too. Mine is December 26th aka the single most skippable day of the year. Christmas hype is over, everyone is burned out and no one can get together. But I’ve just learned to get over the “day all about me” and instead I focus adding as many other peoples birthdays to my calendar. I wrote letters, leave voicemails, get gifts, whatever it takes. That’s my gift I get myself on my birthday.
The title of this video caught my attention, as someone in a familiar position, it intrigued me to watch it. As someone who will be 22 in a couple of days, and is trying figuring things out for this year. I was interested on what you had to offer, and I was NOT disappointed. Since last year was not entirely the best for me in certain circumstances, this was definitely something that not only gave me an outlook on passion and progress, but an overall sense on self reflection as a citizen. While I still have yet to make my plans for this year, I will still keep this video in mind, and whenever it is needed for the foreseeable future. Thank you, and I appreciate the somewhat complementary birthday wish ❤✨ (And I’m sorry you had to deal with the centipede in the end, I would have been just as terrified as you 😓)
I feel sometimes people just need to give themself permission to make the changes in their life that they've been thinking about. You truly are free to change your path at any moment, and it makes life so exciting. Wonderful video, I have no doubt you will make it on youtube as well. In a sea of noise, it's like hearing an old favorite song. That quality and warmness to it will never go out of style.
& Happy Birthday!
🥹🫂❇️🪄 the warmth and familiarity your comment gave me! thank you for truly witnessing me. bc totally!!! the older i get the more i love how bizarre and amazing and totally unexpected life can be. it takes one to know one 🩵
@@smxne It's sometimes scary out there, but also unbelievably exciting!! Aw, thank you for your kind words too. ❣
moneys please?... easy to say "just make a change" when your mind is busy worrying about basic life security
Honestly a beautiful story. I loved video as it began. What kind of camera do you use the quality is amazing and happy birthday 🎉
Great message, thank you! 😊 been trying to move back to south west USA but so many obstacles
the way the camera panned to the windshield and transitioned to u talking about the past is just peak cinema
our favourite sequence too hehehehe
it took 3 seconds to realize that half the reason to continue watching was the good camera work and quality LOL, ofc the perspective shared is valuable too (as a soon to be 28 year old) but this does high quality scenes/footage without feeling like gentrified RUclips, good stuff
Thats what i was thinking. This is way too profesional for youtube.
@@XueYlva gentrified youtube 😭😂 thank you 🩷
@@jamesmccaul2945 yuh
This was lovely. I myself am in this season as a 30 year old and I've never really just let myself say, "This is okay." I'm always stressed about making money after growing up in poverty and recently found myself out of a job after being incredibly mentally ill for the past few years. I have a degree I'm not using and I'm genuinely kept up at night (it's literally 3 AM right now) stressing about money, finding a spouse, a place to live, finding my calling, etc. Feeling behind is second nature at this point, but I like the way you spun it. We are so finite in an infinite universe, so who's to say I am too late or too early to find who I am supposed to be? Maybe, I am right on time.
😭😭 your last line gave me goosebumps. you are right on time indeed… one day it will all make sense. please check back with updates every now and then okay? i’m rooting for you 🥹💖
Time is a construct, stay present write and read your goal everyday in a planner and the steps you are gonna take every to reach it. Plan your days, and it won’t feel so chaotic and out of control. And we give ourselves the timeline, it doesn’t exist. And have no expectations just take things as they come, best advice I can give. Also get out of the “worst case scenario” mentality. Life just infolds around us, the stress comes from our lack of control, just let life happen, sometimes it will be bad and you learn the most from those moments. And when it’s good, take time to appreciate it in the moment.
me too, I can totally relate ❤
I love this comment, thanks for sharing! I feel you, with the growing up in poverty thing. When I am not doing anything to make money or work on my career, it feels like a waste of time. Because I've felt so unsafe growing up, I'm now trying to make up for that. It's just a mental thing.
Its called GOING TO WORK smdh. That's an easy solution to your problem.
the cinematography, the storytelling, the pacing, colorgrading, the edits, omggggg this was good I can't wait for the next one
thank uuu so so much for noticing and appreciating all the details des 🥹 more to come 💖
And we got to watch it for free. Amazing!
I just turned 30 two and a half weeks ago. I was depressed when comparing my life to my peers. They all were ahead of me financially and I felt as though I was being left behind. After a solid week of feeling terrible I came to the conclusion that if I am not happy with where I am at, I am the only one who can change it. I have decided to make positive changes in my life and to be proud of who I am. I am glad to see that I am not alone in this and hope anyone that reads this knows that too. Enjoy life every second you can, if you don't like where it's heading only you can change it.

What a work of art. Your channel will go immensely far - happy to be here at the start of your journey!
thank you victoria 🥹😭 so honoured that you’re here!!
it wasnt until I was at my lowest at 26, that I finally allowed myself to just exist. Even though I was the saddest I had ever been, I didnt care what anyone thought of me anymore. I didn't have anything else to lose. Funny enough, that was when things actually started working for me. My career started to shine, regardless of whatever attention I got. Because I finally understood that there was nothing else in the world more important than what was inside my own brain on the morning of each and every single day. In those small moments. In those pieces of silence that let me just.. be. Reducing the scope of your world, will also reduce all the pressure and failure. It makes all the small things doable.
I love this :")
Omg this was posted on my 29th birthday! This felt like my inner self narrating the video. I went to college because it was what I felt I had to do, and changed careers 5 times in my 20’s trying to find personal fulfillment. Despite the corporate mentality telling me that I’m “behind” I wouldn’t trade my journey for the world!
Wow... Im 30 years old and i aleays feel behind. Had my heart broken, lost my path in art, let down my fans, lived overseas and i almost ended my journey myself at several points. I live at home with my parents and i dont do much. Im trying to get into my happiness maybe doing youtube and continuing my comic or even making a comic company but im also unsure... Thanka for sharing this though it made me feel a lot better though some paths of thinking are still heavy kn my mind. Despite being 30, single, dealing with a hand injury and mental illnrss im still here.. thank you for this truly
What a loser, get a freaking JOB and stop wasting our taz dollars.
Where did you live overseas

@@AJFWinstanley thank you I appreciate you saying that
is it just me or are a lot of people around this age realizing that using your degree to work for other people for 40 yrs isn't realistically sustainable? I quit a job because of a bad boss and been out of work for a year and a half and now it seems like hustling on my own is my only choice, even with a degree and experience..
I'm also 29 this year and feel like life is getting more gray every year. I'm letting go of all my hopes and dreams and all that other nonsense that holds us back and rather just letting myself not care about me and my identity anymore and just enjoying life and doing what I love. I think the problem for all of us starts after uni when we have this belief that we need to BE somebody and each year we put more and more pressure on ourselves. This is silly. Let go of the future so you can just appreciate life now. The future and the past are literally only thoughts - why let thoughts devalue your experience. Sometimes there's pain standing in the way of presence, then be present with that pain. everything is temporary, including joy and pain so just be present with everything, that's true appreciation of life.
This is powerful. Thank you for this :)
I cried at this and it's exactly what I've been struggling with all month. I turned 26 last month and 25 was such a hard year. It finally started to get better and I felt so stagnant and like I wasted all of my potential and I disappointed the universe or wasted all of my former teachers' time somehow. I finally started to recover from those feelings today, and your video drove it home. Thank you
Holy shit the cinematography and storytelling is AMAZING. This was able to allow me to self reflect and realised that we arent that different. Chasing for academic validation knowing that this wasn't something i wanna do really does suck. I am not yet ready to take the risk and i am glad you are able to. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
🥹🤍 we really arent all that different. rooting for you!
turning 27 this year and I feel very much like i am late with every new thing I want to try. this put it into perspective for me! thank you and happy birthday.
Ah, us turning 28 is the same feeling! Crazy that a lot of folks our age and younger feel that way.
Social media does a great job of showing you the best parts of other people's lives but without all the hard parts.
You are doing great! Life develops at your own pace, never forget that.
thank you so much 🥹💖💖 i think we will always feel like we’re never doing enough. and that is something worth appreciating too about our humanity. it is after all what drives us to evolve and grow. ❣️❣️ thank you both for being here!
thank you for this comment honestly. I feel like I'm the only 27 year old going nowhere in my life
Oh snap I’m also a 97 baby, I used to feel aimeless in life as well but luckily like you changed perspective
@@asasgm8618 Appreciate the small steps you take on your journey.
This is a work of art!!! The transitions, the storytelling, the editing, ughhh perfection. I'm so glad to stumble upon this video.
A lot of effort was put into this 6-minute video. I love how each scene was delivered with sincerity and care
Wow, just wow! I stumbled upon your video and I'm speechless. I'm also turning 29 this year and sometimes I feel like my younger days are getting left behind. Since 2020, I've no longer feel much joy in some things that I wanted to pursue. I have an affinity of making videos and photography, but I struggle when I compare myself with others. I feel like I'm not at the right place while at the same time, I need to work because I need money and I also need to work on myself.
Your video is pure art, loved your style and the way you made an honest message. I don't know you but I felt an actual joy that you're now making what you like to do. I also think that everything happens for a reason. So thank you Min!
🥺🥹 wowwww thank you soso much for sharing.. i’m so glad you could resonate with the video so much! thank you for being happy for me..! imagine the joy you will have when you decide to do/make what you like to do as well 🥹💖💖💖
First world problems smdh
I never really understood that uni required so much money just to learn and have life experiences. I always feel like that i couldn’t relate to wanting to go to an uni bc all i wanted is to do art. I can’t justified spending money on something that won’t be all about art. You’re the second person to say that attending uni is like a socio economic ladder or a status in society that you’re worthy of having a higher education. Honestly that makes so much sense and answers to my suspicions on why uni is not all that great.
This video is so cool, it’s like a film. Also, happy birthday, min!
thank you so much!! 🥹 and exactly! hahahah. but i’m also grateful that uni taught me to be so discerning as well. at the end of the day, always prioritise your joy & excitement. your body always knows!
the camera work, details, and storytelling in this video are just... chef's kiss!! I graduated recently from university feeling the pressure that I needed to check all these boxes... but we're all truly going at our own pace ❤
🥹🥰 yes you are still SOOOOO young and have so much time. dont stress urself too much 😘
I find you to be very inspiring. As someone younger, in similar predicaments, from an Asian heritage... I can relate to you a lot. I find myself constantly rewinding certain parts of your videos because I admire and am inspired by how you edit it. I know nothing, and I love that someone like you can show the way for younger people like me through sheer creativity. I believe at the consistent rate you're going, there is no reason why RUclips wouldn't be promising. Thank you for sharing your perspective of the world.
youre so so kind. thank you for being so honestly & genuinely kind to a stranger like me ❣️ :”) it’s my honour to make this, really!!! 💖
I used to feel jealous of younger people and babies. They get to experience life anew. So much time ahead of them. Eventually, I felt so thankful to grow up in a time without social media, smartphones and toxic politics everywhere. Many of us are lost. But not forever. And some of us will find each other in the dark. Good luck to you all. Godspeed to you, SeeMin.
It takes a lot of time and effort to make something like this! Very nicely done :) I loved every shot.
thank you so much alex for appreciating the effort we put into this 🥹 so worth it!
yeah no kidding, every shot was an insane 10/10, don't see this much style and quality on YT often at all
Your work is magnificent! As a film student no little detail goes unnoticed it's such a work of art. I'm happy to be here from the beginning of your journey and I can't wait to see you get the recognition you deserve
thank you so so much for witnessing me and appreciating all the little details 🥹 nothing makes me happier!!! 💖🫂
this feels really inspirational. ive only just turned 18 and it feels like the world wants me to know what i want to be right this instant. but i have no idea! i know im going to move early next year to a new city and im incredibly excited for where that journey takes me. ive discovered that going with the flow had really helped me a lot. ive just started doing things because i can and it feels freeing :)
The production value of this is absolutely wild. From the cinematography, to the editing. You and Keane killed it. Subscribed 🖤
thank youuuu so much neeks 🥹 we’re so honoured you’re joining the ride!
Needed this and honestly as a early twenties girlies who’s felt “behind “since I turned 19 ,I needed the reminder that I’m not behind and that my journey is uniquely my own. I’m only a failure if I give up and it’s ok if my life goes through ebbs and flows. I’m doing good and so is everyone else in our crazy journey we all call life.😊 let’s enjoy our present and make the most of it😊🎉
Happy birthday Min!
I was touched by the last part, that I almost started bawling. When both of my closest friends went to college, I felt behind, lost, as if I was walking in their shadow. I wasn’t given the perfect opportunities or resources to get into college. So I reflected, and reflected and you are absolutely right that everyone’s paths are different. I just needed to be honest with myself, that life isn’t linear as we want it to be. Patience is all I need tho, we will get there eventually.
That feeling of loss unfortunately compounds when you get older. I find as I am going into my 30s, the friends I once had in college and graduate school all move on with their lives.
The plus out of all this is the ability to discover new friends wherever you go and move in life. Remember, you are never truly alone even though you may feel that way.
Cheers!
Wow amazing video. I love your production style and the message hits close to home. I just turned 24 and consistently think about my purpose, and increasingly feel frustrated that I haven’t found it. This video validated my experience, thanks.
Turned 29 in December. I've been an environmental scientist, a writer, a gig-worker--and I've only just recently began what I hope to be a permanent settlement in the field of data science. Thank you for the giving us a glimpse at your own beautiful journey--and best of luck here on YT! Subscribed!
This is absolutely beautiful, both in visuals and in message. Thank you for sharing this, going on 27 this year and I've just gone through the worst year of my entire life. Sometimes I feel like it'll never get better, but I try not to give up because of stories like yours.
this vid was suchhh a journey both artistically and story wise. so so beautiful! love to see where the journey of life takes you and here's to trying new things that serve you
I'm glad i got to know someone like you, I'm almost 20 and never been so lost like rn, i wish u all the best and the greater yet to come :>
psst you are still so young!!! go on and be free. enjoy your youth 🩵
she already got all the best
Thank you for this lovely video... I wrote out all the crazy adventures and experiences I have had the last decade. I'm 30 this week, I remember my last year taking stock as this year I'm going to find someone, to settled down with. This birthday I am happy and glad to be a cat lady, although recognising I'm lonely. I started nursing school dropped out at 18 as the hospital were mistreating patients due to extreme staff shortages. I cried for a week straight giving up my dream, but couldn't be in that system. I studied horticulture instead, got a severe knee injury mid-programme, my dumb ass started a funded phd programme, the pandemic/ supervisor stress caused me to take a step back, I started working a cleaner in the local hospital mid-pandemic, was moving to being a cna/ hcsw full time (in house pandemic style quickly trained) I was loving it. I've got injured with a back sprain - hypermobility takes a longer recovery, so now I'm trying to finish up the research degree, but am depressed. I did an ikigaki test, I love being around people, and seeing helping them get better. I think I may take a couple of years working to save up, have a big cycling adventure. Then I will try for a nursing degree whilst working as a hcsw (the government pays for it) or there's a graduate entry school for medicine (which the government pays the last year if you do the first). I'm just trying to work out which is most future proof for joint issues. Dang isn't life difficult, and non-linear!
"It's called the present, because it's a gift"
This is the most beautiful video I've ever seen. I'm crying right now because you are so right. Thank you so much for this. I needed that❤
I'm 38 and feel completely lost. Thank you so much for making this. This is exactly what I needed to hear.
What you have is the freedom to choose and as much as I love what you're saying and want it to be true. For a lot of people, it is just not the reality and unfortunately some people are genuinely stuck or behind in life. Some people have the best parts of their life stolen by someone else. It's important to recognize that so we can allow them to begin to understand and get some momentum, possibly freeing themselves for real. That's just my opinion anyway. Still an absolutely beautiful video though and everything you're saying for the majority is true.
Hey, I’ve been watching for almost a year now and I’m amazed by your growth. I can tell you’re really putting so much effort into these and the results are jaw dropping. I hope you keep at it you’re doing great!!
Seriously i used to dye my hair red and think outside the box too. We all need more of this type of vibe.
bring it back!! hahaha 🩵
Didn’t we all 😂
I’ve been living with depression and anxiety for more than a decade and I relapsed 6 months and rotting in my bed most days. I recently received an ADHD diagnosis, which is life changing because I always knew something was wrong with me ever since I was a little girl. It is a such relief having answers to explain my feelings of being directionless in life. I will be turning 40 this year and I feel behind as ever trying to find my purpose in life 😔
Oh my heart, thank you for creating and sharing this with us. I’m crying right now because this hit me so hard. The tears are very bittersweet but I also feel way more hopeful after watching this. Ty ❤
This is my first video I’ve seen from you, SeeMin, and I’m immediately subscribing. It’s not just the cinematography and story behind it all, but the resonance. I, too, am 29 this year. I, too, am facing a reckoning of sorts with myself as several aspects of my life is going through a refresh. I, too, look at RUclips as an endeavour (tho, video editing and prod is a lot!).
Happy birthday to us, and I can’t wait to be a part of witnessing your growth here! 🎉
This is legitimately one of the best youtube videos I’ve ever seen. I cant imagine how much time and effort went into this. Thank you for sharing this with us, I wish you so much success and so many more eyes on your work!
"Self-honesty is the greatest act of self-love I can give myself." Something I understand, but something I struggle every day with providing myself with. I find myself often times knowing what I need to feel happiness, but deny myself it by ignoring my internal compass for the sake of others' well-being. Also, you have phenomenal video editing skills. Keep at it! You will be successful.
you're gonna make it big. I just know it. Happens with every small creator I find and subscribe to. The algorithm brought me here so it'll bring others here too and they'll stick around because your content is incredibly produced!! You're unique and creative and likeable and real. Keep at it ❤
GIRL YOU ARE SO TALENTED ?!!!! the cinematography is CHEFS KISS
I'm so glad RUclips recommended me this video. I'm in my 20s and I'm starting to realize that the existential crisis is probably something everyone goes through at this age. I'm just so glad I'm not alone.
Thank you so much for producing and living your life at its fullest, not only for you but for all of us you became an inspiration ❤
It's so refreshing stumbling across a video like this. Genuinely made me calm after a few days of future-related anxiety. Thank you ❤
dont! we! all! 😆 glad i could be a soothing balm of some sorts 🤍
The talent here is unreal. Super inspiring and cool to think of the legacy you'll leave behind.
Oh I really needed to see this! I am sooo confused what to do with my life and so unhappy in my studies. I am scared of not being able to fulfill my dreams. I am scared of being forced into the working-life after graduation even tho I feel mentally so strained. I am scared of never feel good again.
Somehow it confuses me how so many people I see online explore, change careers, be free ... yet most people my age have it more figured out than me. And even tho i live in a western society, they still tell us to finish our studies, get a job etc. Somehow it is a clear sign of failure to drop out of a college course or to change careers.
And even tho I am always admiring people who are just themselves and who have an unique path of life - the underlying judgement of society still affects the expectations I have on myself. In one way I don't want to fail to be "normal", in the other want to have a "better life than they" - means stil being excited for life, being free, not going the "boring" route. So conflicting.
If anyone know a place to exchange about those struggles - I would love to since I don't know people who inspire me or who are going throught the same.
wowwww, I've never related to something more. It's such a freeing feeling to just let go of the old you and just embrace new experiences...really love and appreciate yourself more. Amazing video!
This is one of the most entertaining youtube videos that i have watched in a WHILE , like its so hard for me to focus on watching youtube videos nowadays thanks to shorter videos oof, i used to binge watch youtube all the time but not anymore. This video is amaizng and i will be rewatching to remind myself it's ok to change and infact it's healthy and what we should inspire to as humans. Thank you for the reminder and quality video! 🧡
I absolutely love the old-school summer vibe this video had and I agree with your message. I'm turning 28 this year as well and I am also starting from absolute 0. I'm rooting for the both of us ✊
The movements, color, story, and concept art is amazing. I know this took so long, love the effort.
thank you so so much for noticing & appreciating all the details 🥹
@@smxne ofc, as a fellow creator in the cinematic space. The little details are the most rewarding things.
The way you've visually presented your thoughts by shots and color grading is so creative!!! I loved this!!
This was so beautiful, and really resonated with me. Thank you❤
Thank you, I am 26 this year, and was feeling really lost because I am not yet where I thought I would be. I needed to hear this :) (also the cinematography is so good, I love all the details you and your team put in!)
I was always that A+ student until a year before getting into college. And now 22 here, feeling lost, not knowing what to do. I lost my passion for everything at 18. This year graduating college with two degrees (both in humanities) but I don't know actually what I want to do. I have been drawing since I was 8 or 9, I love art and humanities but I also love chemistry and science (I didn't study any science degree). Even thought to study medicine at 23 because I want to be "useful" to the society. Because I was so lost this year. I needed something very strong to gain my passion for anything again. Or I don't know. Maybe I don't have any skills and I 'm not fit to this society anymore. Love the cinematography by the way. It was lovely
omg this is so insanely high quality! cant even imagine how much effort was put into this
Shit. I started crying at the end. I can’t begin to describe how many bad times I’ve have these last 6 years. But fortunately I don’t have half the things to deal with atm, but there’s still a ton I’m trying to figure out. I needed to watch your video today, thanks
Hell yeh, I'm 30 now and can tell you life just seems to find a way no matter what the case
Where are you now :)
Happy birthday Min! Great message. I felt that way about doing portrait and wedding photography. It served a purpose once in my life but I grew out of it. Great work!
thank you wesley! 🥰 right? the transition felt so destabilising for me. hope you’re at a good place now 😊
@@smxne yes that’s me. Or you can just call me Wes! But I am at a better place. That’s kind of what made me go head and start vlogging this year! I’ll be talking about it at a later date!
That was an amazing video! I can very much relate to your message. I never had the courage to just do what feels right to me. Last year I was living in Singapore and life was pretty much all planned out. Yet, this year everything is different. I have finally decided to go all out and follow my heart. I honestly really miss Singapore (German food and winters suck lol) but finally I am acting authentically. And even if that decision turns out to be a mistake, at least I tried! Much love to you!
this comment hits 😭🥲😭 i think singapore just has this effect on you… but our body always knows what’s best for us lies beyond the comfort we’re in. it must be tough transition for you. im rooting for you!!!
This is literally a masterpiece. I love how inspiring and motivating this was while being entertaining and engaging as well. Best of luck on your RUclips channel and Happy Birthday to us!!
Your content is so original, so refreshing to see original content.
The audio/colour is so amazing in this. You are glowing! Great message, I'm inspired now, thank you and happy bEarth day!
🥹😭 thank you for your kind words as alwahs Ben! i appreciate you immensely!!!!
this is the best edited and shot video i've seen on youtube in years.
it makes the message so much more impactful and meaningful.
thank you min, for bringing this beautiful piece of art to life and sharing your story :)
I'm 34 this year and I was sick since I was 10 both physically and mentally ill. Only recently started getting my health fixed and I feel lightyears behind my peers, even my dumbest and laziest peers because simply showing up with a healthy body means outpacing someone who can't even show up. I still want to chase all the things I haven't been able to get because giving up means no longer having a reason to live. I hope this year will be different and I finally feel some positive momentum forward because I've been stuck for decades.
If you believe it you can achieve it my friend. Keeping you in my prayers for continued healing and growth on your journey ❤ God bless you!
Incredible. Your perspective is so fresh and I love your pacing as well. Excited to see your journey on RUclips unfold!
I just watched the first 0:46 seconds and I came here to say that this is immediately very refreshing. It's nice to see someone put such a creative spin on their content. It really draws you in. Gonna continue now. :)
this is incredible and i just know you’re gonna blow up really fast and i’m so proud to say that i’ve been here since 17k!!!
🥹🥹 eeep thank you so much!!!
I thought it was really sweet and it did click for me. I love your style. Usually I watch videos where people talk really fast and usually people not talking fast enough annoys me more than it should, but this video was so well paced! It was just chill, I loved the energy and you took your time to talk and it was a thousand precent worth it just listening. Right now I'm 25 and not doing great so seeing that graph gave me a big chuckle. Subscribed for the good vid and the great talent!!
This is hands down one of the best RUclips video I’ve seen my life. Amazing storytelling and camerawork :)
Ur camera work, how it ties in with your message, and use of 4:3 are genuinely unexpected and unique, I genuinely enjoyed this, never seeing anything you’ve made before
This video is so vibey and warm I love it, AND YOUR EDITING IS SO GOOD
Really appreciate the high quality. Great filmmaking with great storytelling, was fun to watch :)
This was something I needed to see. I'm just trying to take things slowly and trying to be more growth-oriented than goal-oriented. Since failure to meet those "goals" can potentially cause self-doubt and take power away from yourself (heard that in a TED talk). I'm also on the journey of trying to learn self-love. Glad to see your growing, and I hope the same is with anyone who reads this comment. This video was so wonderfully produced too! Thanks for this!
love how every scene is calculated. i loveeee this video. peak cinema
I really hope this channel get the recognition it deserves.
Amazing work & message you put into this! Thank you
Wow, thank you! 🙏🏻 you thanked me 🥹 thats so sweet.
Wow. I feel like this video was like meant to be seen (from my POV at least) at this time in my life. Recovering from 3 longs years of struggling, last year being the absolute worst since I almost ended this mortal suffering by my own hands. Working to getting where I want this year no matter what.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us all. It's given one more person in this big world some hope for the future.
Discovered your channel recently through the algorithm and am so glad that RUclips took me here! Always so in awe at the quality of your video, cinematography, and the story you tell. Cant wait to continue to see your channel grow, it definitely will💗!
I stumbled upon this video on the night before my birthday, and I really appreciate the message! I like that you clearly aren't doing this for the money but the passion of the videos you make and the message you are trying to convey! 💜
Just getting into the agricultural industry at 22 and I feel so far behind where I want to be. I wish I had sorted out most of my trauma and issues 5 years ago and started what I’m doing right now. It’s really a shame what the past can do and how much it affects the now.
Trying to forgive my younger self for having so many issues but I’m also congratulating him for surviving so I can be myself today.
Just sucks when you know you’re where you wish you were 5 years ago.
Very interesting outlook on life you got. I am personally changing a lot about myself recently and i too could not escape this feeling of being behind, having missed out on life.
Especially when it comes to dating and friendships, never did the former and just started building the latter for a year now.
It is not much but it feels like a mountain looking at the place i started from.
Man I felt like such a mess up when I had to come back home because my plans didn't pan out the way I expected them to, and had to start college all over again at 24, then again I wouldn't trade the life experiences for anything
I don’t have all the words to express how this made me feel. Thank you for sharing. Thank you for being you.
the artist, the storyteller and the visionary that you are!! this was a joy to watch❤ I too went through a similar experience, even the university's leave of absence. I despise that I had to choose a path so soon. as children, we're taught to work towards that dream career. it's implied like once you've reached that, it'll be happily ever after but that's not true.. there'll be more life after that. as adults, we're told successful means wealth, perfect family, peak of career ladder. but what if I don't want success?
I recently found my calling, and I'm slowly figuring out how to work towards it. however even if you don't have one, I don't see the problem. living, breathing, being human is powerful enough. I think, truly, to be in the present, to appreciate what we have in our surroundings is the best purpose of living
I started thinking about time differently as well. I used to be scarred but now i think time is on my side because as long as i don't give up at exploring life and improving myself, my life will keep on growing.
I'm currently studying Korean which is pretty hard but i take solace in knowing that if i keep practicing it with time i will get better at it.
Also i really loved the way you shot your video. It felt like watching a short movie.
It's my legit birthday today and the algorithm blessed me with this - this is exactly what I needed to hear and it's so beautifully executed! I wish you luck in all of your future ventures (to whomever is reading 💖).
i love this!!😍 all the best in your creative journey and happy belated birthday!
omggg hello annette 🥹 i love your content!!! thank you so much 🌷🥰
Although this is just about 7 mins long- I’m sure this took quite awhile to create!! I feel like I’m watching a short movie film?? The quality and your skills in cinematography- is out of this world. I’ve never seen a YT video with quality as great as this one 🤌🏾✨
THERE IS SO MUCH LOVE BEHIND AND IN THIS VIDEO. THIS is magicccc gurl!!!!
Never seen cinematography so unique, and so amazing to see a Singaporean creator share these important themes of life. Subscribed and looking forward to more!:)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SEEMIN!! Love how this video came out ❤❤
THANK YOUU EILEEN 🥹🥰🩷🩷🩷 so glad you love it!!
hey, this video was insanely lovely. like, you're editing and cinematography is such a surprise to see. i felt so caught up in every shot, just because of how thoughtfully put together everything felt. really wonderful stuff! also this message hits me very close to home, so thanks for sharing your story.
i'm really excited what you do going forward, since I'll definitely be sticking around 🙂
i love the comfy vibes of your videos, thanks for helping me get through this hard times 💜
You are so good!! Artful message💗 I hope you get everything you’ve ever wanted from your talent!
Happy Birthday!
thank you kathryn! 💖💖💖💖🥹🙏🏻 you’re soo so kind.
First. Your filmography is awesome. Secondly, birthdays have always been tough for me too. Mine is December 26th aka the single most skippable day of the year. Christmas hype is over, everyone is burned out and no one can get together. But I’ve just learned to get over the “day all about me” and instead I focus adding as many other peoples birthdays to my calendar. I wrote letters, leave voicemails, get gifts, whatever it takes. That’s my gift I get myself on my birthday.
The title of this video caught my attention, as someone in a familiar position, it intrigued me to watch it. As someone who will be 22 in a couple of days, and is trying figuring things out for this year. I was interested on what you had to offer, and I was NOT disappointed. Since last year was not entirely the best for me in certain circumstances, this was definitely something that not only gave me an outlook on passion and progress, but an overall sense on self reflection as a citizen. While I still have yet to make my plans for this year, I will still keep this video in mind, and whenever it is needed for the foreseeable future. Thank you, and I appreciate the somewhat complementary birthday wish ❤✨ (And I’m sorry you had to deal with the centipede in the end, I would have been just as terrified as you 😓)
🤍🥹 22 is still so young!!!!! you will be fine! just buckle up n enjoy the riiiideeee 😙
@@smxne Thank you so much!! Whenever it's possible, I'll be sure to enjoy it as much as I can 💖💕
