Hi everyone, how was your day? Welcome to the 3rd entry of my diary:)
Instagram: / hannahwurld
One of the major reasons I ended up living in my car for so long was because it's really hard to find suitable housing with my dog, Halo. Many times, people just straight up reject me, saying 'no pets allowed,' even though I tell them Halo is my service dog. Sometimes, I feel like being a dog mom is like I've committed a crime or something, and people are really against the idea of living with a dog.
The struggles with Halo go beyond just housing. Despite everyone saying 'Oh my gosh, your dog is so cute,' finding someone to babysit him (if I need to be away) feels nearly impossible.
Halo has been with me for 10 years and he has witnessed all the major stages of my life: graduating with a computer science degree, ending my 8-year relationship, and moving cities and countries. It's bittersweet to say, but Halo has accompanied me longer than any other human in my life.
I'm really grateful my tech company lets me bring Halo with me to the office. I think that's another reason I've been able to live in my car for so long - my office feels like home. That's probably why I decided to have a mini birthday celebration at the office too, even though it was just me:)
*****************
Hi everyone, the episode you're watching is episode 3 of Season 1 of my documentary series: A Silicon Valley Engineer's Car Living Story. Each episode is based on real events and timelines from my life, and they’re all connected. I've created a playlist on my homepage to help you navigate through the series. After this season, I'll reveal the title and content of the next chapter of my life. Hope my story inspires you. Thanks for watching!

It’s so hard making friends as an adult, especially starting somewhere new and not knowing anyone. I understand how you are feeling and hope things will get better and you meet some great genuine people. ❤

@FelipeValdez-og2tg 3 месяца назад

I’ve tried, and i’ve noticed that most people don’t want to make new friends. They just don’t… or it’s one sided and i’m doing making all the effort

@angelpantsflyy 3 месяца назад

I think that’s valid, I’ve noticed the older we get the smaller the friend circles become. Have you tried joining friend meetups or groups outside of work? If you’re open to meeting people there are plenty of groups that host these types of events just for the purpose of making friends. I would suggest not expecting too much to make friends at work because most people just want to work and then go home so they’re not really trying to befriend anyone. Most work friendships tend to be organic and if you click, you click but if you don’t then move on. I feel for you because it’s hard to make friends as an adult and I hope you keep trying. Don’t give up!! Also Halo is soooo cute!

When I was watching this diary, I felt sadness :(. Especially the part where she sings the "Happy Birthday" song. No matter how independent you are, we, as humans, always seek to be a part of something in order to survive. We yearn for a sincere connection with others. Keep going, girl. You will find what you are seeking. Sending a hug and love....

Yeah, you are right; I feel for her cause she tries to take care of herself & her dog. I am also sad, as she displays good character! & determination. I wish she was in my city.

Hi Hannah, I watched your shorts of your work days when you lived in Vancouver. You seemed so much happier there. ❤ You don't know us from a can of paint, but I'm in agreement with others in your comments in that maybe going back home to your friends and family would be best for you. It doesn't mean that you failed. You took a leap of faith to try something new and you have gained good life experience. But staying in a place that doesn't make you happy is not the way. You're a beautiful young lady and you seem super sweet and kind and it pains me to see you unhappy when you don't have to be. Wishing you many blessings and joy. 🙏🏾 Take care ❤

@summerding3945 3 месяца назад

I really appreciate you never give up on Halo, just like you never give up on yourself. You always so brave to try every possible thing to accomplish your dream life. You are a great person, sometimes it’s just not the right time and place to have another great person as your friend. But it’s always worth to try. I’m here with you Hannah. You are NOT alone!!!❤

@cel0837 3 месяца назад

@@HannahWurldgoing to church community is a good idea. As a church, we are called to help each other. Just be careful not to go to prosperity gospel churches and cults. If you ever decided to be part of a church community (hopefully and I pray that you do), do some research first about the church. I will pray for your safety and will pray that you find your purpose in life. I dont know what is your stand about christianity, but I will say this nontheless because I am not ashamed of the Gospel, you can never find happiness and satisfaction apart from Christ, only Christ can give you the purpose in life, happiness and satisfaction. Dream jobs, fame, wealth, none of these matters because at the end of our life, all of this will be gone. So we set our eyes not on perishable, but on imperishable, which is freely given by Jesus Christ, who came down to earth, and lived a perfect life without sin, and to be crucified on the cross for the sins we commited, so that we may be forgiven and to receive His righteousness. And on the third day, He is risen from the dead, so that we also who believes in Him will also rise with Him.

Hannah, I also am alone and I am an 80 yr old woman. However, with Jesus Christ I have a friend who is with me. He is so close and just a prayer away. I can talk to him wherever and whenever I want or need to. A good Bible-believing church will have others in it who will care about you and pray for you. There will be people who care befriend you. I will pray for you to find a church home where you will find real friends. God loves you. Praying for you from Texas.

As an introvert that still craves human attention, this is both really inspiring to watch and also really heartbreaking. As a father of a little girl myself it kills me to see that this is the journey you are on but at the same time I want to say how brave I think you are and how strong of a person you are for doing this and sharing it. Honestly….something amazing is going to come of all of this someday and I’m sure it will be worth it. Good luck to you!

Hannah please don't feel sad that you have no one to celebrate your happiness with. You have over 12,000 subscribers who all love you and are celebrating your birthday with you. I was so excited when I saw you posted a new video today! I clicked on it immediately as I was wondering if you've been OK as its been 3 weeks since your last video.

@bibiworm 3 месяца назад

I am an immigrant and an introvert, I have always relied on myself. I do not celebrate holidays or birthdays as I am very low maintenance. I even went through a surgery all by myself. And for the past 15 years, I have maintained close friendship with only one person. And she lives on the other side of America. I am self-sufficient and very content. I hope you can find your inner peace as well.

@chuachua-hj9zd 2 месяца назад

No matter how content or self sufficient there will come a time you need others to help you or you will struggle on your own and work10 times harder than you have to. Hard for one person to life a couch but much easier with two that is the reality and if you have to pay to get help it get expensive very fast. What if you are hurt and injured? You aren't Superman and not indestructible and all will need help eventually.

@nerdyowl3407 Месяц назад

Wow! I wish I could someday achieve this level of self-sufficiency as you. I am an introvert and currently living in Germany as an international student. It's very difficult for me to fit in and make new friends. I am always alone and do things all by myself. And I enjoy this. But there are times when I feel it too heavy to be this alone and have no one to talk to. Sometimes I get anxiety thinking of the time when I would be in some medical emergency and I would have nobody by my side. I do enjoy living my life by myself and not getting involved in dramas that usually are associated with having a large group of people to hang out with, but I still feel down thinking about how lonely it gets sometimes. I aspire to be as self-sufficient as you are someday.

I also have a calm tan husky and live in a house in Mountain View near the Stevens Creek Trail in walking distance to that Microsoft campus (and I also used to have a vlog, but have unlisted most of the videos). Years ago, I considered living in a vehicle to save $20k per year, but decided to get a larger house as a master tenant and find roommates who would live with me and split the cost. It solves the price, loneliness, space, and bathroom/hygiene access issues you mention. It’s also better for making friends and dating to have a place you can invite people to to have dinner, play board games, etc. Ultimately, it affects your mental wellbeing, and it’s worth the price.

Hannah I was thinking this might be where you were showing in your video. I also live near here, 1 hour walk along the trail from MS. I used to sometimes use their outdoor space to exercise on weekends. I've not felt comfortable leaving home for the last six years or so (even before COVID) due to illness. So I have experienced my own journey with being isolated, losing contact with friends, spending a lot of time alone (which I do like in a lot of ways) and learning to know myself better. I thought I did know myself but there's always more to learn right? Ok I will go enjoy watching the rest of your video now.

@MixedChick1 3 месяца назад

His excuse is strange. I can understand if he doesnt eat dairy but some people dont want to take food from people they dont know.

@JoyYoung369 Месяц назад

"Hate" really is a strong word, there's no point hating someone just because they didn't accept food from someone else; at least he's being honest about his dietary choice, and he did say that he has plan with a friend so he didn't want to eat. It's also important to respect other people's space and choice too. If he already showed he's not interested in getting a cake, he means i don't want a piece of cake no matter what the cake is made or or what it is for, there's no point adding "it's yogurt though", it feels forceful. Imagine if he takes it and throw it away just because he didn't want to reject her offering. We are all grow ups, don't take rejections that seriously, everyone has their own lives. No one has to accept other people's food offerings. Plus she didn't say it's her birthday or someone else's, it could be a to go bag she got from a birthday party she went to, or someone else gave it to her which she doesn't want to eat; there can be so many possibilities without giving a context; he most likely would at least say "happy birthday" if he knew it was her birthday which she didn't say.

@@Bladebreak3r Don't think so. Cakes are not birthday cakes by default. she doesn't have to emphasize that they are birthday cakes if the goal is to share, unless the goal is to receive "happy birthday" wishes and appreciation. If that's the case, just say it's my birthday and i'd like to share a piece of cake with you if you are interested. People would say Happy birthday and either take the cake or not. I think that's the right mindset gifting things to others.

I'm a real estate agent and that happens all the time. I'd say the universe is telling you to get an apartment. I'm guessing you make mid six figures and with that salary you can easily afford it and you would be massively safer and provide a much better home for Halo. Then you could also leave him from time to time and you would be able to go out and meet some people. You're obviously smart, resourceful and very attractive and in just a few videos have amassed over 15K subscribers. That's pretty amazing. So the more interesting your life gets, I'm sure you'll attract many more viewers. Go get the apartment. The universe wants you to be safe and happy.

@hiramramirez7808 3 месяца назад

Part of growing up is accepting loneliness, that you no longer have your friends from school or from your neighborhood. And one sad thing about work is that everyone is your colleagues, not friends. If you want to have or make new friends you need some hobbies, or go to group activities, like dances or activity clubs. But you are very brave for trying to make your life in one of the most expensive areas of the USA.

Hi Hannah, Happy birthday! I came across your RU-vid channel and wanted to reach out to let you know how inspiring your journey with Halo is. Your resilience and positive attitude in the face of challenges are truly remarkable. It’s clear how much Halo means to you, and it’s touching to see the bond you share. The dedication you have shown in caring for him, despite the difficulties, speaks volumes about your strength and character. Halo is incredibly lucky to have you, and it’s wonderful that you’ve had each other through so many major life events. I know it’s not easy finding suitable housing when you have a service dog, and I admire your perseverance. It’s encouraging to hear that your workplace is supportive and allows you to bring Halo with you every day-it sounds like a second home. Your story reminds us all of the importance of compassion and understanding. I hope you had a wonderful mini birthday celebration at your office. Even though it was just you, know that there are people out here, like me, who are rooting for you and wishing you the best. You deserve all the happiness and success in the world, and I hope the coming year brings you closer to achieving your dreams. Keep sharing your story and spreading hope. You’re making a difference, and you have a friend here if you ever need support or just someone to talk to. Best wishes, M. Sami 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 🌹✨✨🎀✨✨🌹 🌹🌟🎁🙆🎁🌟🌹 🌹🌟🎁💎🎁🌟🌹 🌹🌟🎁💖🎁🌟🌹 🌹Happy bday 🌹 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

As someone who has struggled with making friends in the past, and still struggles some today, I really feel for you. I know that it can be really hard when you move to a new place to make connections with people. I've had two moves where I went 3-6 months without making any friends. It's important not to stop trying, and to remember it's not about gaining social credit or having tons and tons of friends, just 2-3 people you have a good friendship with is fantastic, but for me, even gaining that has been difficult in the past. But I've always managed it, eventually. Something that really helps is finding something you're interested in outside of work, like a sport or art or hiking, and join a league or club and really commit to going every week/whenever meetings are. Meetup is a great app. I admire you for simplifying your lifestyle, and I hope you find the happiness you're looking for. If I could offer one other suggestion, consider moving out of California, it's a difficult place to make meaningful connections!

CA really is tough. So many people that work even multiple jobs can’t afford housing. When you do have housing often must sacrifice to keep it. So sad to me that people have to have unhealthy habits like fasting. Fasting can be healthy but not every single day! It’s amazing that you can seem so joyful under such circumstances. You have such amazing resilience. The system is destroying our health and our wealth. I really know what you mean by feeling sad when not able to share your happiness with others. I’ve been there. Actually, the number one factor in longevity, living long healthy lives is social connections and community. I wish the best for you to find a loving community to embrace you and a home to make your own.

There are some aspects of it that I miss, such as getting to see my family, or having a refrigerator, but you learn to be grateful for all the simple things- i got blueberry muffins 2 days ago and ecstatic like a child. Though I don’t have a lot of belongings, I found myself to be more free, and i save lots of money, lol. You learn a lot about yourself and true nature of people. It has it struggles, but that’s everything in life. I’ll probably continue this until i have a family of my own, or until God says otherwise. You wont really get the joys of the simple life until you do it yourself, and why many subscribe to this lifestyle.

Happy Birthday! I can understand it is bittersweet; we are expected to be individuals and do it all alone. I have been alone without family, a few good friends, and my dogs for most of my adult life. I have focused on improving my opportunities with education and working in a field that has a high demand. At the moment, I am facing a hard time myself and you can work through it. Your dog is precious.

If u enjoy sunny weather, I recommend Singapore! It’s a diverse beautiful place with lots of expats. Everyone is quite opened. I recommend check out sherry in Singapore on RU-vid. She’s also from Vancouver, she now works at her own startup in SG. But Do check the requirements for moving dog abroad. Just know not everywhere people are cold like SF. It’s not you! It’s the city and the atmosphere around the place you live. Hence you should definitely try seeing other countries with warmer cultures.

I lived in the Bay Area for over a decade. It is hard to make friends there. I live in Southern California, Orange County, now. People are way more friendly here and I am happier. The weather is perfect too. Singapore is a nice place but it's really hot, humid, lacks natural scenery, and you might run out of things to do.

First of all, Happy Birthday, Hannah. To your coworkers, just stay cordial. Hate to tell you, kiddo, but it appears that you are the only one who wants to be friends. Don't put yourself out there until someone takes an interest in being friends with you. Then go slow until you can find out if their intentions are honorable. Even though it is easy to say, screw this, I'm leaving, you would be right back to square 1(at least for now you are at square 1.75, which is still farther than square 1). Just let time take it's course. Stuff tends to happen when you least expect it. Walk around the office with your head heald high, like the successful engineer you are! We Asians are not quitters. Even though at times it does seem tempting, but I do believe it is not in our DNA to give up when we come this far. Failure is not an option....or at least not right now. Make a list of all your interests and look for people who enjoy the same, like in clubs and organizations. Go outside your circle to get what you need. It is probably there just waiting for you. Take care.

Nothing wrong with relying on others, we are all on this earth together. I started my life fiercely independent, and realised I was doing so as a response to feeling desperate to rely on others. Now I have a happy balance, and I found my friends through attending clubs for the interests I had. I did dance, board gaming, walking, things that I love, so I found people who loved those things too and were the same kind of people as me. Work has never really provided me friends, I don’t see how it could as they are such random people to me, and I am fine with that.

I think an important thing to remember when trying to make new friends is to not be afraid to put yourself out there, but at the same time to not take things personal if not everyone vibes with you. You wouldn't want to be friends with people who don't accept you for who you are anyways. As long as you are confident in the great person you are, the right people will notice that and gravitate towards you :)

@thetanmancan 3 месяца назад

I have a lot of (admittedly unsolicited) advice to give about friendship. One thing that occurs to me is that before others will want you as a friend, you must: 1. Love and accept yourself and 2. Have a strong sense of self. By 1, I mean you must emotionally internalize that you love yourself and are worth being loved by others. If you don't, you end up coming across as desperate for others' approval because you don't approve of yourself, and that scares people off because you are subconsciously holding them responsible for your own self-worth. By 2, I mean once you have accepted yourself as worth loving, you must then decide who that person is, regardless of what other people think. In other words, become polarizing. By choosing to be something, you are making some people less interested in you and some people more interested in you. I went to a programming meetup a few weeks ago and made a friend there because we were both Dungeons & Dragons nerds. I'm sure there are plenty of people who don't care about D&D or even actively think I'm a loser for liking it. That's fine. I don't need those people to be my friend. But without having a strong sense of what I'm about, my new D&D friend wouldn't have had a basis on which to like or dislike me.

@michaelrichards669 3 месяца назад

I think D&D is looked at differently now. 1980s and 90s most considered nerds. But now the younger generation likes all the old books. My son and his friends like Warhammer and enjoy Game store/Comics.

@victoriatam1173 3 месяца назад

also if you dont value yourself or think you’re deserving of love intrinsically, you will not only scare away healthy people who don’t want to hold that kind of responsibility in a relationship, but also you will attract people who want to use and manipulate insecure people and have control over others. That happened to me during my early and mid 20s cause i was so desperate for validation, I mixed myself up in romantic relationships and friendship relationships with people who did not have good intentions. luckily i learned before i made any permanent mistakes like marriage or having a baby with the wrong person

This "dream" of yours is actually a nightmare. I just lost my younger brother suddenly at 33 years old. I believe he died from the stress his job gave him. Life is too short for this kind of nonsense. Go be around your family or friends. Have a relationship. Have fun. What I’m saying is take care of yourself spiritually, physically, and emotionally. They try to make you think working yourself to death or following your "dream" is the way to live. The only thing that matters is love and family. Don’t let them try to convince you otherwise. It will come full circle back to that anyway whether you like it or not.
