What it's REALLY like to be a Twin 

Monica I think you might want to consider just ending your main channel. If you aren't crazy passionate about it and don't enjoy making the videos, it isn't fair to yourself to continue. I found you through your vlog channel. Its freaking amazing. I just wanna encourage you to focus your energy on what makes you happy:)

am I the only one that thinks Monica and Shelby dont really look like twin?? they are both equally pretty though ☺✨👑💜

Remember, it is never too late to chase a dream whether it be college or not. I'm 27, went to college, and have a career and somedays, I hate my career and my job. Find what makes YOU happy. Find what makes YOU tick -- regardless of how long it takes or what you have to do to get there. You got this girl.

OMG MONICA! I agree with you 100% !!! I also have a twin sister. I love her but I hate how people always group us as "the twins"!!!!

I love how real these blogs always are and they always seem to have a message in them.

This is so cute 😭 I also miss you guys lol come back to LA! Or I'll come to you

I seriously admire the hard work you put into these vlogs! They're filmed in your own, unique way, i love them.

you literally know all the right angles and thats what makes your vlogs so good!!!!!!

My twin sister and me are exactly like you and Shelby! We always get grouped together as "the twins", we love hanging out with one another, we love to long board, and most importantly we love Starbucks and the Seattle Mariners ( and Detroit Tigers). Love you guys and hopefully someday we will meet!!! Xoxo-long time subscriber Ashley 💗💗💗

Girl I am so with you on "the twins" thing or sometimes we get called "the sisters". We use to get called by our names combined "Ebica" (Eboni and Erica mixed together) LOL life of twins!!

the great thing about being alive is that its never too late to try anything... if you ever decide to go to school in the future you're more than welcomed to!

I relate to this so much because I'm an identical twin! Seriously the worst is getting called 'twinnies' especially when people can't actually be bothered to learn your actual names. But it does have its upsides too ofc! And they outweigh the negatives ☺️

You're just so down to earth Monica. so honest, and I really think that's cool. Had to subscribe. thank you for the video.

Omg, the twin part was so relatable to me! I'm a twin and we get called "the twins" literally all the time. It's so frustrating but cool at the same time.

Um, that apartment was GOALS!!!! How were you not wowed by it???

I love the part where you talked about your expectations for yourself about college and how you feel, deep, I loved it

Monica always finds the best angles to put her camera!! it makes the vlogs way more interesting!

i wanna visit seattle soo bad

Honestly ur vlogs are so refreshing and like bring such a new perspective into what it means to be a RU-vidR I have liked all ur vlogs and will continue to!

Your vlogs are so amazing. They're different. Kinda of documentary style. Love it!

You're one of the few youtubers who's vlogs I'm always excited to see, love them :)

I feel you SO HARD with the college thing. I'm just going into college, but for some reason I never even envisioned life after high school, like it kind of just stopped??? I don't know maybe in some parallel universe I was actuallly supposed to die or something? Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but I like that you're just doing and going where life takes you and that's honestly what I want to happen as well. For me, for now, it's with school though. Rest in peace me

Wow, I loved this! I have been struggling with self doubt and in a rut myself over the fact I did not stick college out. But I feel the same way you do in which I've never pictured myself finishing college. The only reason I went was because it felt expected. This makes me feel so much better I'm not the only one struggling a little with these choices.

ayyy, we longboard the same way! front foot mainly facing forward! I seriously love watching your videos (and I'm binging them right now) cause I'm the same age, in the same place. I mean, I work full-time, but you also work since RU-vid is a job for you. I've watched your videos since I think I was a freshman in high school? possibly earlier, it's hard to remember. anyway, it's weirdly comforting to see that there are other 21 year olds that stopped college (maybe I'll go back?? idk???) and are figuring life out. cheers to this crazy life.

I am so freaking obsessed with your vlogs , Monica , keep up the great work as always girl!😍💕

I don't even think it's normal how amazing Monica's vlogs are

Same, I always knew that at a certain age (surrounding the 20s) I would be off doing something BIG!!!!!!!! Cheers to doing what you truly loooove. You're an inspiration

you like the office, so i already know we would get along but girl I feel like you would be my best friend. THE BEST VLOGS EVER.

Your blogs and videos seriously make me so happy

You guys seem so much more happy in Washington I love seeing you guys smile and go on adventures!

Yes, yes stay in Seattle! You both seem so much happier and at home there.

I've been checking all day for this video, absolutely obsessed with your vlogs!!!

I'm not that type of person who comments videos. But.. you really inspiring me so extremely much! I really love your vlogs and your personality. Idk, you are amazing, I just had to let you know

i'm super disappointed because i got sick this morning and now i'm going to miss my school dance!! WHICH BY THE WAY i missed last time too 😩 honestly Monica your vlogs at the moment are the only things that make me happy so thank you 🤗

Like literally, how are all of your vlogs SO satisfying?!😍😍😍

Everything you said about being a twin is 100% true! I have a twin sister as well, and everybody and I mean EVERYBODY calls us "the twins" and it gets quite annoying... we are 2 different people!

I am so glad you make vlogs beacuse school is starting back up and you will be the one to make me happy and encourage me along the way! Thank you soooo much for doing vlogs!!!

Though college and degrees may not be the most important things in life, I still would "recommend" taking some college Econ, Health Ed, and Philosophy courses. Life needs money, life needs health, and life needs philosophies to progress. These are classes I had fun before, during, and after. A community college should be more than enough.

When Monica films like Casey Neistat and it actually looks like a vlog of his. Love you Monica, your vlogs are the bomb!!!!

it makes me happy that you both have one another ♥

wow the college part is so me i just cant imagine myself going

I just love Monica's taste in music :)

her outfit is so simple but it's great! I love it!!

Your such a creative videographer! Your shots and angles are honestly so good💕📹

got a kick out of "Smoke has no business coming out of trash cans"

You look pretty both ways, but you look so fresh and somewhat prettier without the eyelashes on. Just my opinion :)

I loved this video I feel like how you explained the relationship you and Shelby have is the same way most sisters view each other even if they aren't twins! I have a sister and I feel the same way even though she is at college more than half the year!

I honestly admire your positivity so much. You seem to be able to take something positive from a day or a situation all the time. 😊 oh and you're fucking stunning by the way 😂

I LIVE FOR THESE VLOGS!!! LIKE THE EDITING IS PERFECT!!!

I can't get over your editing style omg!!

I love how ur makeup is so natural

I love your vlogs so much because you are so genuine and real

Honestly your vlogs are perfect! 😍

What's your view on people getting married early like Aspyn and Parker ? I love how you show how it's really like to live in your 20's and the struggles / single adventures

LOVE your videos, you're always so inspiring. Great editing makes every video so much more entertaining

like before watching because I know I'll love it. LOVE you Monica!

Omg Aritzia is a really popular store in Canada! I never knew they had it in the states!

i love the style of your vlogs! its like watching a short tv show

Really like your vlogs, your montage is always perf and idk they are just cool to watch 🙆🏻

I just got my degree but have no social life, didn't meet anyone in college really, so you win some you lose some haha 😂 and yeah is quite difficult, but if you don't give up it's possible 👍

I can totaly relate to what you said about being a twin!!! some times it's anoying but the most time it's really cool:)

the song at 0:40 is open season by high highs if anyone was wondering!!!!!!!!!!!

This vlog channel was the best decision you've ever made! I love your vlogs!

I'm a twin as well. The most crazy question we got asked is..So your twins, but are you sisters??? DUH! Your both very pretty young women.

College is an O.K. way to learn, and often even necessary for a particular career path. But, the education you receive in the ongoing School of Life is the best of all! (And, just curious, twin-wise, could you ever see yourself living away from Shelby for any length of time? How would she answer the same question?...) Enjoy the Journey!

OMG LOVE YOU SOOO MUCHHHH😍😘 And I love your vlogs soooo much!!! ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ LOVE YOUUU!!!!!!! ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

FINALLY SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS THAT BEING CALLED "THE TWINS" IS NOT GOOD. Literally it is so annoying, and i have told many people that I don't like being called the Twins or The (my last name. Ex: Smiths) They don't listen tho. :l Also, its annoying when people instantly think that my twin and I always want to be together. One time in 5th grade we went on a bowling trip and we were put together because *you know we are twins and always want to be together! (not)* We ended not having enough room for two more people in a group so we were put with the other people that didn't get a group. It was just the 4 of us and our dad. Oh god was it bad. To make matters worse, my twin had an attitude the whole time because we always get put together and this is what always happened. So basically I was with these two boys who were really annoying, and my sister who had a attitude. ALSO!!! My sister and I are fraternal twins so we always get people saying, "Wa.. wait. You are fraternal? You look so alike!" etc. We hear that on a daily basis during school. Last point, I swear. People always ask us, "Do you and your twin wear the same clothes and stuff?" NO! Once again I get that question everyday. My twin and I are COMPLETE opposites. She does better in school, she has her hair short, she wears boy clothes and swimsuits... just a complete tomboy I guess I could say. Her room is super messy all the time. I on the other hand, do worse in school, i have super long hair, i like makeup a bit, my room is clean for the most part, and i wear girly clothes. So back to my first point, don't call twins, "The Twins" because each person in the world is their OWN PERSON. I have never heard a twin say they like being called that and I probably never will. :) (btw I am only 12 so i might edit this one day in the future and add more to the story haha)

2:36 that view is amazing!

GO DAWGS!!!! huskie stadium is my favorite place ever

having a twin seems like so much fun

yes. I have been waiting for this. Thankyou

You know i really think you should stay in Washington, because you look so happy when you are there😊 Amazing vlog as always❤️

Yay!! So nice meeting you:)

your vlogs actually give me life

I have a twin brother and I feel basically the same, having a built in best friend

Your blogs are like the best thing ever!❤️

Haha omg yes. I have a twin sister and we were always "the twins" or "the girls". Also I love when people ask us what it's like to be a twin because I don't really have anything to say besides "I don't know what it's like not to be a twin!"

Wish I could talk to you about college , cause I'm in the same position of not knowing really what's going on

Oh my gosh!! Same! It's a built in friend❤️ I hate being categorized as the twins but everyone likes to say that😂

OOOO stay in Washington! You seem so much happier and seem like you have more fun there, makes videos fun to watch! :) Enjoy your videos!!

I love watching you're vlogs they made my mood a lot better and brighten up my day keep it up 😊

It's so funny! My best friends are twins too and they're saying exactly the same things about being twins 😜 especially the 'we're not the same person' thing 😁guess it's the same struggle for every twin...

I love how she put the clip in 1:44, because when i first saw it, it was hilarious

Yes no thumbs down atm!👍🏻

I love your editing style

you look so pretty in that purple PINK zip up you were wearing in the beginning! 😍

I'm a new sub and I love your vlogs!! Your style and editing is amazing.

Seattle makes my heart happy. 😍❤️

I'm a twin and I agree it's soo annoying being grouped together.

omg that song with the getting ready us from my favourite movie "Juno"

I get so excited seeing vlogs of where I live 😇 I'm so used to just seeing vlog after vlog of L.A. 😂 (even though those are cool too 🙂)

I literally live for these vlogs

best vlogs in the world award goes to you hands down

I really think you should move back home because you just seem so much happier here than in la!

I know a lot of ppl say your vlogs are the best but like they actually are

Your voice, manners and vlogs in general remind me of John Greens characters like Margo, or if not that, any teenage/indie movie with an intriquite female that is motivational or interesting within music background :)

Literally need to hang out with you guys if you move to Seattle 🙌🏻

Hey Monica! Are you guys going to go to the Seattle street food festival in August or Bumbershoot? I would love to meet you and Shelby there 🙂

I spent so much time in the home section in urban outfitters literally yesterday

I'm a twin too Monica! Everyone calls my sister and I the "twins" and I hate it!!!!!! Love you and your videos!!
