[@felikk]

these 15 min of denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance of having to wake up are essential to my day. anyways, love your videos

[@johnsonjo8454]

Hi💋🤎

[@kowareyasuki]

the support for palestine in this vid is so lovely to see, and it's always a joy to see you linh

[@really-quite-exhausted]

"Linh discusses their quarter life crisis" is a very valuable segment for you to talk through your own feelings and plans, and for us viewers to reflect on our own life crises in solidarity 😂

[@periwinkleadidas]

your discussion of your career and life made me so fricking happy. we’re both social justice inclined sociology majors and i find myself enjoying your thoughts on your studies and life in general. maybe he parasocial is parasocializing but heres to let you know that i adore hearing your sociological spiels

[@adiaporter3197]

Hey linh, I'm Adia Bluesky and I just wanted to say I love how you inserted your views on imperialism and colonialism. As a young Native American who goes to a very white school I have always been taught two different ways at school compared to home. I appreciate that you are aware of the situation and I really appreciate you bringing awareness to others. I feel safe here on you channel and I feel like you welcome everyone no matter their race/ethnicity/religion/sexuality. I am truly grateful for you and your channel.

[@Karyoot]

I so agree with this -- I love their breakdown of Marxism, of how nihilism and pessimism are oppressor tools/speak. Linh, you're amazing, keep doing you & would love to see more content like this! ++ viet cooking recipes so I can learn how to use herbs more !! ~ We are so much more than the sum of our consumption and production.... now being older (post-grad) in years of working and understanding how we perceive ourselves and others through our *output*, it's tough but remind ourselves of our humanness. Keep creating, doing, what means more to you, whether it be art, the written word, explorations that don't go anywhere. Laughter and joy and strength we get from these small (useless by the system) activities (read up on Ikigai) are what keeps us happy, alive, and well ~

[@carolinedrayton3426]

Man, I don't know if this would happen but I would LOVE to see you do an actual TED talk! I love listening to you talk about things you're passionate about, and I am grateful for people like you on social media and online spaces who ground me and make me think about the world. Lol maybe that's deep, but if you have the opportunity for a TED talk PLEASE take it!!!

[@rorointhebin]

the non-profit industrial complex spiral is so real! trying not too overthink myself into another quarter life crisis as i'm applying to internships in the advocacy field (including oca which i found thanks to you hehe)... you're such an intellectual and thought-provoking inspiration, linh! i hope all will be well

[@ciaorciara]

The aesthetic, the vibe, my goodness it's so cinematic and relaxing to watch. ❤

[@delanieamend468]

Linh I just want to say thank you. I grew up about 5 minutes from Cox Farms and this was the first year in 24 years I wasn’t able to go to the fall festival. Your little highlight at the end was so unexpected and made me so happy I got to visit the fall festival in one way or another🙂

[@cloud9ine103]

your vlogs are always the most thoughtful

[@moonkitovlogs]

Linh is living my dream life

[@rishikadilip8920]

Linh's quarter life crisis sounds more like a reading my sociology professor would assign. But in all honesty i would EAT UP that reading.

[@nerdynerdiernerdiest6148]

as always a great and beautifully edited video linh! pls talk more about your quarter life crisis (if you're) comfortable. it's only freeing to hear someone else reflect on a lot of the things I'm currently struggling to figure out, too

[@manaswirajaratna2048]

sometimes it’s hard for me to get what you tell linh…but even thought your videos always brings this heartwarming feeling of being at home it feels like listening to mom i sometimes don’t get a things but just looking and admiring the person who talks your videos feel like home

[@orangefanta6567]

You've really gotten in your bag with editing, i really enjoy seeing how your approach to editing and color have developed over the years!

[@tetedelacoursecafe520]

I enjoyed your thougts of a quarter life crisis. Is good to think about all that stuff. I had this exact crisis a bit later in life, but after all It was great; now I know myself better and I know exactly what I want to do, and who I am. Good luck ❤❤❤

[@dahnadotnet]

Always look forward to your videos, I love playing them whilst doing chores or studying. Hope you're well

[@angelicaballena5987]

i love your vlogs. the cenimatography is a chef kiss 🫶🏻🫶🏻

[@Rayowag]

Nothing hits like an aesthetic content creator not being quiet as hell about social issues. I have it on my plan to read Marx for several reasons and as someone that is still in the process of trying to set up a nonprofit with an American friend I can definitely feel the Nonprofit Industrial Complex being a struggle from the inside too for people that truly just wanna help but are trapped in a system made for rich people (like...come on, solicitation licensing shouldn't be costing thousands per year for a nonprofit raising money online). I occasionally come back to your channel and every time I'm reminded of how much you truly care for the world around you and I relate a lot.

[@inespereira343]

it's my first year as a college student, and these videos are the only help I have to understand how to work and study for different subjects

[@Laufii]

I absolutely appreciate you cosily bringing up deep subjects and social subjects, especially in this time of genocide in Palestine. I’ts so important that public figures like yourself challenge social problems and I respect you as an influencer for that ❤

[@samu801]

Content creation and social advocacy don't have to be mutually exclusive. You have skills you can use in your career because of KZbin, and you can use that platform to talk about the issues that matter to you. I've been watching you since I was an undergrad in DC, and to see you blossom has been amazing. You're gonna do great, Linh!

[@sassyninja6162]

I don't think I've seen a video from ya in a while which is understandable with how busy you are just glad, you're still doing well and doing what you can to take it day by day, I love your kitchen set up so much < 3 You've got good taste always.

[@yoj2508]

omg I love this season and I love your videoooooooooo. It's so comfy to watch Linh's video in the bedroom with the big blanket and a cup of hot cacao

[@dobochobo]

such a heartwarming vid :”)

[@marccolomayt82094]

Enjoying your college vibe vlog! ❤❤

[@honeymoonfaded]

linh’s videos have been such a motivation during my final season😭😭 I was just re watching all the past few videos just to feeeeel like doing stuff😭🫶 love u linh

[@kookiekosmos]

linh, you discussing your post-grad plans and interests really settled in with me. i'm actually really interested in exactly what you're saying but i never really understood how to say it, so thank you so much for talking about it bc i feel like i would've gone my entire college career not knowing what that would be.

[@quietrainyafternoon]

new linh video always makes me happy :,-) hope you're doing well linh

[@quietrainyafternoon]

loved your chat. i wish you all the best on your career path and i'll be supporting you on all your endeavors, on social media and elsewhere

[@mayi4339]

Mann the coulour grading is soooo beautiful

[@laurapanteleit4849]

omg I gasped when you said you were doing youtube for 6 YEARS!! I have been following you since your insta days and literally couldn’t believe it

[@Maria-kn9ob]

YESSSS I knew I loved u for a reason!! FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

[@Panda_Leo_08]

In this era of grey and black aesthetic, looking thr world through your eyes seems so colourful..i really appreciate it ❤️

[@venessashony694]

The entire video is just too good... Although the moment you said "am I paying to listen to this? " I instantly liked the video that moment😭😭😭😭

[@mmelcx]

ilysm lihn your videos are so pleasing to watch and you’re so inspiring 🤍

[@ayantikasen3490]

Someone recently told me "Do you really want to follow the path that you were told to follow when you were young, even though you have the exposure?" and I apparently shocked them by saying "Yeah, as much as it is time consuming and almost killing me now (I live in India) I really like my subjects and I DO want to do this" so you saying you want to work a 9-5 really resonated with me

[@monsehidalgo5220]

men, i love when you talk a about your career, sociological theory and stuff like that, is so instresting!

[@tonyia4451]

Oh my god! I used to watch you all the time when I was younger. I played the video and I immediately remember who you are because of the songgg. It took me way back in years😭love uuu🤍

[@marsjourney829]

Even though my life is pretty busy 'cause I work and study at university, dear Linh your videos bring me so much calmness and cozy vibes... I can't even explain it. I hope you're having a nice day 😘🍃

[@evamussari7629]

I'm super excited for the silver jewelry line!!!! as always, a wonderful video

[@danaeperez7485]

I just turned 24 today and I honestly..needed to hear this knowing I’m not alone on how I feel..you put into words what I’ve felt.

[@jessicaanthea]

every video of yours is like watching a movie, linh! There's really no one as talented as you

[@sunnysouls_]

im lucky to have seen you evolve so much over the years linh! i hope to work at a non-profit once i graduate too so we'll see how that works out for me hahah sending you love

[@my.name.is.yana.]

17 minutes and 3 seconds from Linh it's a happiness! thank you!

[@mureuni]

you're a wonderful human being, linh. ofc we keep rooting on you since the first vlog

[@jeloamorin9989]

As a sociology major who’s taking sociological theory as well.. this is really felt. Hahah thank you for being my comfort youtuber linh🫶🏻

[@maizerelli]

Welcome back! We've missed you! I can totally relate to your social justice career confusion. I'll be graduating with my master's in social work in May, and I have no idea where I want to go/what I want to do. I want to help underserved communities, but everything seems bleak or nuanced recently, and my thoughts change to, "how can I do the least amount of harm?" It's a tough field, and it can be tricky to know which organizations are actually helping those they intend to serve.

[@anamikaSingh_penguin]

Needed just this❤❤ thank you linh! 😊

[@lola-uh4dq]

i finish watching every new linh truong video with a new perspective on life 🙏🙏

[@clari436]

linh truong you are such an inspiration to me and i love you for talking about these topics in your vlogs. i love you!!!!!!

[@johnathanexam9683]

i quite literally screamed when u said u wanted to do creative directing cus im in my life crisis era too and creative direction is something i would love to do as a job but im way too scared to even admit that i want to do a creative job (cus thats not what ur typical asian parent wants and its tERRIFYING) but when u said u wanted to pursue creative direction as well, it felt very calming and was a omg twinzie moment ehe... gave me a lil more confidence to say fuck it and just go for it! love u so so much, mwah

[@baileywood6069]

Linh, I’ve watched your videos since middle school, and now as a sophomore in high school I’ve been struggling with school, an AP class to be specific, and now I’m sitting here, trying to get the motivation to work, get my grades up, and study before midterms, and I decide to watch one of your videos to help. I hope you know how much your videos help me in seeing school in a different light 🫶

[@kumagasukidesu]

The town you live in is so beautiful!

[@wabsibabsi]

You probably get that a lot but you’re so gorgeous 🫢 You Look so cool and your vlogs are amazing too, it’s my first vlog of you but I can feel the greatness 😮

[@malpal843]

i love how you included 'beach song'. leonie who released it went to my school, and she never thought it would reach so far. im so proud

[@oreeahna]

as someone who currently works in a nonprofit, i appreciate you mentioning the nonprofit industrial complex! it's rough out here 😭

[@francescakyanda9182]

Perfect to watch on a crowded bus after a long day at school 💐 the vibes are immaculate as usual

[@Ryan-fp8oz]

im always so enamored with the color grading of your videos

[@brandedfishball]

your videos always make me feel so warm, thank you for all the effort and love you put into them.

[@elendiazzz]

Linh, it´s incredible to listen to you, I would love to have a conversation about your quarter-life crises and everything that you said, we would have so much to talk and it would take hours because that it´s such a complex topic but a very important one! I loved the video, as always! Kisses

[@roseanng.8740]

Just finding your channel and I wish I had friends like you in college. Thank you so much for sharing your perspectives and advocacy "I want justice and equity to be achieved in my lifetime!" I felt that deeply and appreciate you!! 💖

[@defnemeryemcolakoglu7838]

Our mothers have the same view! My mom is also very supportive of my art but she did say to me “I would have loved to be rich and give you your own studio to just do art all day, but you must understand our situation and the opportunities this country gives you.” I live in Turkey, and being an art graduate would mean practically no job for me. So, since knowing English is extremely valuable here, I’m studying a major where it’s diploma would basically be physical evidence that my English is good. And with good English, you can get a wide variety of jobs :) I just hope I can still continue making art 🥲💕

[@__irenic]

Honestly, this vlog was so therapeutic!! thank you for such an amazing video

[@hanafayy]

your editing is so cool, your videos make my day

[@briiroitori]

The section where you were talking while prepping food in your kitchen felt like a lil FaceTime call! At first it was odd seeing you out of frame while talking but then it became intentional. Plus keeping in the sounds of the faucet and chopping made it so inviting

[@rainydevilgaming7386]

Can I just... YOUR CAMPAIGN IS AWESOME. It literally reminds me of those days when I was little and my mom would just drop a bunch of journals on the ground and I would be gone for 2 hours at least. The details, the style, the sense of fashion is just so inspiring. I am floored how you have grown. There is such an exquisite mark you leave that NO ONE will ever doubt who made it, cuz it has you written all over it. And... you look so gorgeous. The way you do your hair and make up... *chef's kiss*

[@jeielisantana2252]

i would love hearing more of you talking about theses existencial crisis bc i waaaay too long on that topic rn

[@NAC1330]

I always wait for Linh's Fall videos. I love to see my fav season through my fav youtubers lens🥰🍂

[@ellislouda5079]

I am from the dc area (around eden center!!) and now I'm away at college and your videos remind me of home :) I've been a fan since I was starting out high school now I'm a freshman in college!

[@nights_the_nightingale]

istg these videos are single-handedly carrying me through post-high school burnout (i'm finishing up my first term lol but the exhaustion is real) here's to hoping I can manage a bachelor's in sociology! 🥂 edit: your ted talk was wonderful, I greatly enjoyed it! 💖

[@popoy_xtra]

OMGGGG

[@Sujitha_03]

I'm spontaneously falling in love with your videos 🤌🏻❤

[@stardustedtea]

when you were talking, motioning, and cutting with the knife all at the same time I was EYEING THAT SHIT UP- I was like LINH PLEASE BE CAREFUL SWEETIE OMG 😭😭💛 (I’m sure your kitchen skills are quite epic but I still worry abt that knife LOL)

[@MsBryt2000]

I always forget that you live in the same area as me until you show somewhere like the Eden Center in your videos. I love going to the Vivis boba shop there! They have the best brown sugar milk tea to me!

[@antoninatitkow8905]

your determination astonishes me bc i would never wake up at 5am if i had a 11am lecture. No way in hell

[@biahdias9592]

I must say, I'm a 25y brazilian person, I'm living a very different life from you right now, but your videos makes me feel hugged!

[@cyrchol]

your vlogs are my morning magazine thank youu 🌷🌞

[@akosuakoranteng3327]

That last bit on Marx has also been on my mind a lot! Thanks for sharing !

[@astaraelgames]

Linh can make anything super aesthetic, ie. smacking their knee really bad in a dingy library closet 😂 another great vlog, I’ll be super sad if you stop making KZbin videos but you’re going to crush it in life wherever you go~

[@bestdaysmagasine261]

If the age turn me to the past I will do what exactly you do as uni student, your vibes are contagious and I am so inspired from your way if life and studying. Actually and to be honest we should have more like you in this world especially sociology students in the orient because we don't have justice at all and families are struggling a lot from many subjects especially women. Oh my God I can't wait to see you graduated and see you at social works and make justice. Actually my teen-age daughter she's thinking to study Sociology like you and I am encouraging her but until now she didn't decide between Criminology or sociology, hope she could find her way. Any way thanks for all your lovely content you are gonna to be famous some day and I am happy for you because your are working so hard to fulfill your dreams. ❤

[@thatonebrowngirll]

my fav video bcs of the ted talk. it was so helpful

[@tbees_01]

Oh mah gawd, bro your aesthetic ✨💖

[@Joe-1369]

I love these videos!! They bring some calm to my chaotic day❤❤

[@chouchouuuu4711]

Your videos make me feel so warm

[@Ratsoftheswamp]

When you said "Nihilism and pessimism is the language of the oppressor" it actually made me tear up (not really sure why). I'm going into environmental science (wildlife biology) and its a career that doesn't pay much a lot of the time and can be brutal on your body and well-being, but someone has to care about the creatures on this planet especially during climate change, and I could be pessimistic about it all but instead I'm so excited to start my career and try to make a difference. Your videos mean the world to me I'm so glad I found you a few years back and that I've gotten to go to college along side you/your videos.

[@sunsetnshower]

Ahhhh!!! Wake up linh posted ❤❤

[@maybenotoday3106]

the whole quarter life crisis segment is so REAL i felt that so hard

[@nickel2725]

Checking every morning for a new vid! Finally!

[@avaurr]

HELLO AT THE PUMPKIN PATCH PART I WAS LIKE omgg i go there every year thats crazyy,, wait oct 28th.... I WAS LITERALLY THERE THE SAME DAY I CAN SEE MY FAMILY IN THE BACKGROUND OF ONE SHOT THATS CRAZY LMAOOO

[@wizardfloof]

I love your vids so much, and I just wanna say you’d do so good on having a podcast!

[@keriskun]

thanks for giving me a lil relaxation through your vlogs

[@zickerr]

this is so far.. Ive been watching here since she started the chanel..I feel like we hve grown up and ... watching her contenrs was( are /will) one of the best parts of my life .. which I can say when I become an old ladyy..though sometimes covid was better _ for introverts

[@cygnuss-asmr]

그녀의 동영상을 볼 때마다 잠시 현실에서 벗어나 삶의 단편을 즐기게 됩니다 💜💜💜

[@shrutijha4165]

you really give me such a positive vibe...I always root for your vdos and you know what I noticed Namjoon in your wall hehe.

[@edgarallanpoe209]

i remember watching your video of you just starting your senior year of highschool, i cant believe youre a college senior already..

[@SRUJAN06]

your editing is extremely good i love it i like to learn that and have a great life love it u show how you work and how u manage your things.😊💌

[@wusdum]

the fact that u went to a Palestine owned cafe is so admirable!!! #FREEPALESTINE

[@meetu_]

As a marxist communist I really liked hearing your little monologue about one part of marx's theory of labor! Although it isn't just about art, and more about education, I would recommend people who enjoyed that quick part to read "Why socialism" by Albert Einstein! It's a really small essay! Also, LOVE the Palestine support! It makes me so happy to know that my fave youtuber to watch is on the right side of history!

[@user-ip2kp3ji9i]

Yasssss another converse wearer

[@lafeil]

Good have plans outside YT, see you working at museum or organization. Just such back plan plans for future it very challenging right now. Two, look at different point of view on things. If working for organization got understand why people think different point of view. Jewelry going do amazing, look like work hard it.
