"you can't connect the dots looking forward, you can only connect them looking back" - - omg i'm SO frickin happy for you kaiti!! seeing all those video clips is nostalgic because we've gotten to experience those moments too. can't wait to see what you do!
I have been following your journey literally from the start of the pandemic. I remember you mentioning in one of your early videos about how distressed you were that all you internships cancelled and that you were so lost if things would workout. As someone who has witnessed your journey since the start-- and loved every bit of it-- it's so nice to see how much you've grown as an individual and a content creator and how beautifully your life has unfolded since then. Love you so much Kaiti
omg same, I started following you at the beginning of the pandemic. This video shocked me so much, as so much time has passed and so many things have happened in the time since I started following you. Also, I have to add that your videos still have the same feel as they did in the beginning although they have simultaneously evolved so much Sending so much love from Germany P.S.: Have a great time in Korea I'm really jealous haha
There is just something rustically nostalgic in ur voice in this video. I felt every word of it.. Congratulations on graduating Kaiti!! All the best for all ur future endeavors 💜
hey queen! girl, you have done it again. constantly raising the bar for us all and doing it flawlessly. i’d say i’m surprised but i know who you are. i’ve seen it up close and personal. girl you make me so proud. fr though i loved this video. i've just graduated college as well (yay class of 2022!!) and i resonated with every single one of your lessons - it feels really nice that we reached similar takeaways through similar trajectories of both good & bad experiences. congrats on graduating kween!! ❤️
Congratulations! I finished my second masters degree yesterday (so 7 years of college). So three more lessons: 5. when one door closes another opens, but you have to look for it and trust the process. 6. Everything happens for a reason, mostly to let you grow as a person. 7. Have faith in yourself! All the love from Austria
I’m not sure if it’s bc I just woke up or because you’re JUST THAT AMAZING (I think a bit of both) but I’m literally crying right now 😭 I’m so happy for you, and I can’t wait to see what comes next, Kaiti!!
Got a girl reflecting on her own past four years of college and now I’m crying thank you Katie for always being vulnerable with us bc I have learned from you how to all myself to go through these feelings
“Why do I have to leave now that I’ve finally figured it out” feeling this heavy as a rising senior this fall. Thank you so much for this video 💜 good things truly do take time
i think this is my absolutely favorite video you've ever made. I'm so happy for you Kaiti and everything that you have accomplished, I'm so excited to see your next chapter and I just wanted to thank you for being such a great inspiration and for posting your creative work for all of us to see🥰
This is so much better than a vlog or a sit down. This is so raw and personal in the most aesthetic, beautiful way possible. Thank you for sharing your honest journey through this medium. It really settled my mind as an anxious applying-to-college peep. Thanks for all the work you do and for your honesty. Love ya queen😘
oh man, i really felt this one. I feel so happy and excited for you. As someone who graduated 3 years ago and is living this post-grad "adulting" life, there is so much more to experience, both good and bad. But, it is an amazing process and I know you will shine in whatever you put your mind and heart in. Congrats on graduating Kaiti, can't wait to see what else is in store for you.
kaiti, i can only hope I have this much self-reflection ability after four years in college because I just finished one and I don't know if I have brain cells left. Congrats my queen, look forward to watching you take on the world
As someone who has been feeling lost for months now after finishing my first year in college and realizing what i thought was my calling was straight out the window seeing your videos and growth is so comforting Kaiti. You are so inspiring and I know you will have a prosperous future!
This is definitely your best video to date and I'm on the verge of bawling my eyes out. I've graduated college five years ago and I'll graduate my master this summer, and looking back, college is definitely my pivoting point that I have not realized until now. thank you for this~
Thanks for this video, Kaiti. I'm 29, I live in San Diego and I've been here for 11 years (for undergrad and some extra years). This hit all of the feelings for me in knowing it's time to move on and that I've gotten what I've needed out of here. Been job hunting for that next spot and hopefully in the Mid-West. Cheers to your next chapter and thank you for being...YOO! :)
As someone that just finished one year of college, this video hits in a diff way. Will definitely be using the next three years to explore and learn as much as I can while staying true to myself! :) Congratulations Kaiti!
I am soooo so thankful that the youtube algorithm placed your vlog on my feed 2 years ago ㅠㅠㅠㅠ it was one of my lowest moments but i had your videos to look forward to 🥺 I remember playing your vlogs over and over again (i think they were about 6 at the time!!) while i was studying or eating or doing whatever 😭😭😭 time flies!! I’m on my last year of college now and watching this vlog made me so emotional 😭 i’m so so happy to see your channel grow and i cant wait for the adventures life has in store for you 🥺 i love this little corner of the internet
The part about how you can't connect the dots of your life looking forward, only back really got to me. I love your videos and thank you so much for sharing this with me.
I never thought I would be so proud of someone I’ve never met 😭 congratulations Kaiti!!! Can’t wait to see where the rest of your life takes you, I know it’ll be filled with so many blessings ❤️
i love how you made the point, "good things take time". that is something that will stick with me. congratulations once again kaiti, and although im a few years younger than you, i wish you the best in your next years of adulting :O !! i am super happy for you as well, and looking forward to future works you will produce!! :)
This has got to be one of my favorite videos not just from your channel, but on this entire platform. I'm class of '23 and as the end of my college experience draws closer, I feel like I've missed out on a lot and haven't made the most of it. But little pieces of encouragement like this give me hope that the things I'm so worried about today will make more sense down the road. Congratulations on graduating, and I wish you all the best in this new chapter!! :) I'll be re-watching this anytime I feel down in the dumps.
this means so much to me! I'm going into my High School Senior year, but you reiterating that everything will be okay after high school warms my heart. CONGRADS again Kaiti Yoo!! 🎉 Hats off to you! 🎓
Everything that you have said and felt throughout this video, resonated with me so much. I am trying to be a youtuber because I have been OBSESSED with it for as long as I can remember. And people talk negatively about it because they don’t understand or think it’s a waste of time. But I have started and I cannot wait for what is to come. I have had severe depression for awhile and when I uploaded my last video I felt happy truly happy. So thank you for being motivational, if I couldn’t follow my dreams then there would be no purpose in my life. So without a doubt I will not leave anything behind and I will enjoy the journey and be grateful that I can have one. I have been watching u grow and it’s so inspirational love ya kaiti🫶🏽
Omg I’m crying. This was so beautiful. I have a year left in college and this really wants to make me try to enjoy these last two semesters. Thanks girl!!! And congratulations!!!! 🎊 excited to join you along the next chapter of your life.
i am so proud of the woman you have become. i'm proud to say i've been with you pretty early in your journey and i'm so happy of everything you have achieved. i'm rooting on for your future, i know you'll do great wherever you go. love you always, kaiti
AHHH loved all the reflections & storytimes from ur college experience!! ur mom for real the #1 😭 ty for bringing all of your internet friends along on your reflective journey thru ur past 4 years 😆
aww man i’m gonna cry. thank you for being so vulnerable and thank you for your presence. love you and your content. can’t wait to see what happens next
Thank you for sharing, as always! The future is still uncertain, but I hope I will graduate with even a fraction of the first-hand gained wisdom that you did.
i dont know why but theconnecting dots line made me tear up, it also gave me chills. kaiti you're INCREDIBLE, congrats on graduating and all the best for everything that is to come
it's not even me who graduated but your whole video and your whole journey just made me cry 😭 i'm so proud of you kaiti!!! you got through so much and you survived college!! Also your video deserves its own netflix film bc it's soooo good i was hooked and i loved watching this specific video of yours 🥰💗
You can't connect the dots looking forward, you can only connect them looking back! Congratulations, Kaiti! Thank you for sharing some of your adventures and your reflections with us! :)
Thank you so much for the video:)! Exactly what I needed at the moment. I can’t describe how proud I am of seeing you have gone this far. Congratulations Kaiti!! x
I shed an actual tear - this was wonderful to watch, especially as a rising sophomore I'm relatively new to your channel, but you really have a way of taking us on the journey with you and that is such an amazing skill. Thank you for your positivity and ~wisdom~ Can't wait to see what comes next for you :)
I think you answered your own question a little "I've finally cracked college, why do I have to leave?" Life's about throwing yourself into new situations and learning and growing. If you've cracked the system you can't develop. Cracking college shows you're ready to move on, you've got all that you could have from it. Better to leave now than stay longer and have that environment feel stagnant (or so I've been told by my friends who stayed on to do masters)
this video impacted me a lot! it is life changing and i feel so serene after watching it. your words are so deep and so thinkable. the video was aesthetic beautiful, intellectually useful, life altering kind. omg it was just too good! sending you tons of love and blessings for your future!!
this is so well made, I love you for your story, your vulnerability, your introspection and perspective on living life always a lil half full. Cheering for you from afar, keep on living
i'm not crying, y'all are 😭😭😭 congrats Kaiti and all the undergraduates out there 🥳knowing you through this channel is definitely one of the best highlights in my last 4 years
I'm so proud of you, I remember I was watching your videos before starting college myself. It's crazy how much you've grown and I'll miss your college videos but I'm so excited for what's next for you. And I'm sure whatever comes, you'll make the most of it. Congrats girl
This is just beautiful!!! Time really does fly but you have definitely made it enjoyable to watch and allowed us to learn from your experiences. Thank you so much!!!
this just made me so emotional 😭I’ve been watching every video on your channel since you started back in quarantine and I’m ab to be a freshmen in college this fall. Congratulations in all the ways you have grown and found yourself!! It’s been so inspiring to watch you grow and keep trying new things. You make me want to start a yt channel so bad 💪🏼
