Answering the Same Questions 5 Years Apart

♥ In today's video, I answer the same TMI tag questions that I answered on my channel 5 years ago. This ended up being so much more cringy and horrible that I imagined it would be so I'm very sorry for that hahah. I cannot stand me five years ago so I'm shocked that any of you watching could. Yikes...

Katrin Berndt i was just about to say don’t apologise as we all change and growth is a really important part of that 💚

[@ChrisPage68]

You have to be *that* person in order to be who you are now. If it is any consolation, I was an utter a-hole in my teens. Over 30 years later, I'd like to think I've improved - but I'm not stupid enough to ask anyone to verify that assumption. 😜

[@ΑναστασηςΦιλ]

Well you have changed a hole lot in those 5 years I know it is hard not to cringe with yourself back then but remember that to come to the nice and relaxed person you are now you you had to become that. Life is all about the lessons we get and you have learned a lot in those 5 years be proud of that :)

[@kimanna5928]

Gonna be honest, I found on Tumblr and started following you, then at some point I unsubscribed because I felt we weren't on the same page, but started following you again. I think it's because you "matured" a little bit faster and I was stuck in the past for a while. But eventually I started having the same interests and opinions as you again 😆. We all are cringy when we're young. If I had the opportunity to meet younger me I'd probably slap myself. I love the fact that I got to grow up with you. Your channel is the only one I follow consistently and watch every video you post. I love it when people change and grow for the best!

[@pale_emo_princess]

I tried to start a KZbin channel 5 years ago as well when I was 19 and I also cringe watching the TMI tag I did 😅 so I totally feel you

[@paulamlucena1]

It just feels like you've grown up, no need to apologize, everybody was sillier when they were younger

[@noawqqw]

11:37 I can’t believe you literally said the exact same thing!

[@sandranorum6125]

Jag följde dig på den tiden med men minns inte alls att du pratade så 😅 Det är ju skönt att man utvecklas! Jag vet för egen del att jag är -oerhört- tacksam att jag förändrats som person 🙏

[@alluneedislessthan3]

I like that you don’t feel like you have to put on an act for the internet anymore. It’s nice to hear you talk straight and say what you really think. I think it shows a lot of maturity and growth. 💕

[@Katrinberndt]

For sure. I don't know why I tried so hard to be cool and impressive before. 😂 An immaturity thing I guess!

[@alluneedislessthan3]

Katrin Berndt it’s okay, I used to do that too back when I was painfully awkward and had no social skills and was way too concerned about people liking me. It’s crazy how growing up and giving less of a fuck makes you more likable lol.

[@hellish2021]

It’s not yoooouuuu per say that is cringey, that whole personality type thing was sooo cool back then. Even though I didn’t see this video back then, it was nostalgic for me

[@Katrinberndt]

Haha it was though, wasn't it? Like I remember that was how most people acted back then. 😂

[@gamaltk]

Agreed!

[@karoma5805]

Yeah I second this... When I look at you tubers now that are in their teens/early 20s I see a new personality and it confuses me...i wonder, will people act like that forever? It was nice to see this little nostalgic capsule in time, and young people are alot more energetic, I think there is some authenticity in it sometimes too :) in just being silly

[@seanfinn2902]

That’s just how KZbin was back then. You built your brand over the years, and I think you honed it in pretty well. Here’s to watching the growth over the next five years!!

[@Katrinberndt]

I'll be back when I'm 31 haha!

[@gnubaum9768]

oh jeez, when you said in your insta story that it is cringy, i honestly thought you were exagerating. but no, no you were definitely not. if you still do youtube in 5 years it would be interesting to see another update version.

[@Katrinberndt]

Hahaha right?? I'm sure 30 year old me will be even better!

[@Jack-jj8xx]

I think we're all cringey when we're 20. I know I was. I'm still cringing over my 20 yo self.

[@Nuudelikeitto]

Sarah Oh shit I'm 20 now and hate how self-aware this makes me lol

[@daisy5530]

Hahah 😂At least we usually don't realize until a few years later!

[@CristinaConflitti]

Oh I hope I won't cringe over my present self in 5 years, I'm doing my best :(

[@Venya9]

Agreed, when I was 20 I thought I would be like that forever since I was already an adult. 8 years later I cringe at my 20-year-old self so hard.

[@sherkeis1992]

"Isn't sweet a flavor?" That part tripped me up 😂

[@BlackHermit]

Same here!

[@frenchiezzz]

We have all been through THAT phase

[@krissicarsonart]

“I’m crushing this video!” 🤣🤣🤣 This was cringe-worthy but also hilarious!

[@vanic26]

I'm 20 and after this video I think I can hear my future self cringing about everything I've ever done.

[@Katrinberndt]

Hahah maybe! I guess that's a part of growing up 😂

[@cptn_sumi]

Probably, but that's okay. It's normal 😄

[@angelchrist4598]

[@mollygrace2666]

[@ainosalmi6171]

you used to sound a bit like ash hardell, everybody grows up and that's only a good thing. You seem so much more relaxed and comfident these days. No reason to "try to be funny and snappy". Just keep staying true to yourself. 🙏🏻❤️

[@Katrinberndt]

Amen to that!

[@illbeyourstumbleine]

Except Ash still sounds like that and hasn't gotten out of that stage at all! It's a bit played up for me and my taste...just too much for her age, or maybe I am old and bitter🤷‍♀️ Anyways I don't think the two are comparable at all since Katrin has actually grown as a person.

[@ainosalmi6171]

@@illbeyourstumbleinemy point was that she used to sound a bit like Ash. Not anymore.

[@TheFaauxreal]

I like how a lot of your responses were the same! You always come across as someone who is very sure of themselves as a person. You’ve obviously matured quite a bit but this was so interesting to see :)

[@XDmalaika]

If you cringe at your old self it just means you improved in your mind, which is amazing!!! Plus I have been here for 5+. We all grow so don't worry!

[@Katrinberndt]

I hope you’re right 😂

[@peoplecallmeagoth]

I think you 5 years ago was just very reflective of 2014 and Tumblr in that time. I'm about the same age as you and i see so many parallels with your personality back then and my own in that era 😅 Now, nothing seems forced and over the top. Your personality was reflective of the culture back then but now you've really come into your own. I love how straight forward you are and your humor is much dryer and I think it's funny!

[@candaceteneyck6272]

Lmao, "Isn't sweet a flavor..?" ..."Isn't sweet a flavor??" Some things never change 😂

[@kathish1549]

“#troyler” 5 years was FOREVER ago i guess huh

Definitely was 😂

[@evan_sunprince]

That made me crack up lol I got into KZbin in like 2015 and loved the big youtubers from 13. I always liked tronnor more lol. I had a huge crush on connor and troye. I've grown a bit. They still cute but not my type anymore lol.

[@serenaiob4897]

Quality you look for in a partner: I think the right answer is "sunny" not "funny" haha 😎 gosh, one thing I love about not being internet famous is that I don't have to cringe too much thinking about how many people I annoyed with my photos/posts/videos 🤣 it's cool to see your evolution though! 💜

[@rosae996]

Omg i was there! Didn't cringe back then, but now i did. Glad we all changed. 💖

You are the same age as my daughter. You have changed a lot, for the better. But between those ages most of us do/did.

I actually thoroughly enjoyed this video. Recently I’ve been thinking about how much a person can change in a period of 5 years. The way we calm down, collect ourselves differently or how our standards change. This video is perfect 👌🏻 great job!

[@valentinaivorciuc8319]

the cringeness is fine, it's very interesting for me (as i am almost 20 now) to see how much you have improved. that makes me really curious to see how i will behave in the next 5-6 years :))

[@Katrinberndt]

I'm happy to see that I'm much more calm and confident now than I was back then. 😂

[@452natasha]

Was like seeing myself and understanding how annoying I could be sometimes. But also sweet and kind lol it was just weird...

You're being too hard on yourself. Those are some really formative years for everyone! Maybe the MOST formative and changing other than 1-5 years old. I really cannot think of 5 years I have grown more as a person than from 20-25. Like I said, I think that's the same for 90% of people. You were awesome then and even more awesome now. I am 40 so and have a 22 year old myself now!

[@maren02]

I don't think I've changed too much in 5 years (26 now), though I suppose if I had video I might think otherwise lol. But when I watch old videos or read things I wrote as a teen, it is definitely super embarrassing. I know the feeling! Back then I sometimes acted in a way that I thought I should, whereas now I'm just more myself. Probably kinda the same for you.

[@Laladust]

You shouldn't put a disclaimer, or feel ashamed of acting like a teenager. That's what you were, a teenager, and that's what you're acting like. You grew up. Don't be ashamed of the fact you used to be a kid, and it's on film. Edit: also I love that your favourite male and female actors are both Australian! Love from Queensland

hi, I have been following you since 2012 and you are extra everywhere, it is nicer to have long hair, and a bigger septum piercing with your face, although I am 43 years old, I want to start streching my ears,i have pierced ears nearly 17years but just pierced ears not streched,i think it's never too late to do streching or tattoo myself ,i have tatoo nearly 20 years,not only will I stretch my ears, but I'll also pierced and my septum, I don't care what anyone thinks, everyone thinks in my place if you're pierced or have a tattoo then you're not a good worker you are cow if you have a septum horseshoe ringetc etc etc, i dont care i will do it ,i work in my job 22years as an electrician. But I would go to the 20mm limit, I can't get bigger because of work,bigger streched ears would bother me, because I have to push my head a lot between the wires in the car, I'm sorry but I would like bigger streched ears but ... how much time should come to that size, does it bother the jewelery when you sleep? otherwise you are great at all the pictures.
