Mai and her mom hanging out together is my fave part of vlogmas so far. so wholesome ❤️

[@JunipersCancer]

[@leamariechristiansen346]

I hope Mai gives back to her parents now that she's doing so good financially ❤️

[@derlinangel]

YESSS i agree

[@konan6457]

[@InhaleSkyExhaleStars]

it is wholesome 💗

[@dani11luv]

Who else thought it was so cute and wholesome when Mai’s mom said “no you’re 2 you’re always baby” @13:29 when talking about being 20 😭🥹

[@mia_canady0951]

Jesus Christ loves you!!!!

[@eunoiia7213]

my mum always says that to me 😭😭

[@ultrakatnyc]

can we just acknowledge the look of horror on Mai's moms face when she found out how much that mirror cost 🤣

[@Isa22Cruz]

I really admire you making the effort to mend the relationship with your parents. I can only imagine how hard it is, I don't have a great relationship with my mom and I know I'd like to some day try to make it better. You are so mature emotionally and can handle so much, I know there's probably a big cultural shift in how you grew up and how they grew up and you are so strong. I really admire that ♥ Aside from that happy bday! The kitchen looks amazing, the amber glasses are my fave

[@mia_canady0951]

Jesus Christ loves you!!!!

[@yutis]

the way mai's mom says "save money live better" is so cute 😭

I refuse to write “20 sucks” because it doesn’t. I’m 27 and early 20s we’re freaking freaking great years! Happy Birthday Mai! Also I love the color combo to your new house ahhhh💖

[@Miss.il4f]

I'm so happy for Mai bc she trying healing herself and the relationship with her parents

[@mia_canady0951]

Jesus Christ loves you!!!!

[@MsRocknrollgirls1]

Your parents singing happy birthday to you was actually the cutest thing ever. I hope you have such a great year you literally deserve the best

[@leamariechristiansen346]

That was very sweet ❤️ Mai remember to cherish your parents while you have them. I know it can be difficult with family and the past and everything, but you will be happy later in your life if you take care of your relationship with them ❤️ give back to them and show them that you're thankful for them 🤗

[@alina22122001]

OMGG I just freaking love how Mai's NOT actually doing a party or whatever for her birthday, that's relatable because usually I do not have any will to celebrate it in like "traditional" way with going out with your friends or doing something fun. So authentic!!💔

[@nurmelisss]

i LOVE this kind of editing of yours. dont you worry about the "simple editing". it's giving me somone being effortlessly pretty vibes. anyway the important thing is that YOU LIKE what you're doing your editing, videos etc.

[@lordshrek660]

Can we all accept that Mai is literally the most entertaining KZbinr

[@maomoo3065]

Duh, ofc! Xx

I love the fact that you’ve been so open with your relationship with your family and just to see the whole BIRTHDAY thing actually brought tears to my eyes

[@callmeari8233]

i honestly feel like Mai's videos are like therapy sessions , she talks to us like we are her friends and really shows us the reality of being an influencer/youtuber. ❤❤❤❤❤❤ we love you mai !!

[@selenapinto147]

I‘m 20 too girl!!!! It doesn’t suck haha!! It‘s just amazing that we‘re able to celadon life and share our positive energies with others and let everybody shine their positivity ❤️❤️

[@julietderlachter4172]

I saw a girl at my school wearing an alchemy hoodie so I went up to her and we literaly were bonding over talking about you and your channel for a full hour. Mai is one of the most inspirational youtubers I have ever watched, please never stop inspiring people, if it werent for you, I wouldn't have met this girl, thank you Mai 💞💞

[@chrisgutierrez1071]

Mai being 20 and living in nyc and flying out her whole family for the holidays is the most inspirational thing ever. I’ve literally watched her ever since I turned 16 and grew with her. Ilyyyy

[@lisazhong6139]

Mai and her mom hanging out together is so wholesome 🥺

[@lindsayluken8532]

Seeing Mai happy is litterly so wholesome to me it litterly gets me smiling behind my computer

[@emmaoboh5404]

Mai is the most entertaining KZbinr even though she is 20 now but she has accomplished so much at a young age and I’m so proud of how far she has come from when she started to now.

[@yourangel_cerys]

I am literally in love with Mai and her mum’s friendship. It sooooo cute 😻😻😻

Not me literally crying when they finished singing happy birthday and Mai blew the candles. I'm so invested in her life and seeing her grow makes me so so so emotional

[@noodle3851]

Her Vlogmas vlogs are the only ones that aren’t repetitive and each vlog is actually, its own lil chapter, which i love. The girl is ENTERTAINING 💗💗💗

[@missyyourbesti]

facts!

[@michaelabradshaw5738]

Like no lie Mai skin is looking really clear it just shows how happy she is and how much effort she is putting in to take clear of her self. Good job

[@aimsfabs6147]

Your mom surprising you and you being so happy was the most precious thing!!

[@matthewmaravilles]

Mai’s mom is so cute and looks fun to be with omggg😭🫶🏻 and like mai spending time with her mom IS LITERALLY SO CUTEEEE😭🫶🏻

[@matthewmaravilles]

20 sucks

[@Tashawashh]

Girl I’m 24 and it hasn’t felt real since after 21 lol. Age is a crazy thing to internalize because time seems to fly by faster every year. It goes so fast sometimes but reminds me that we are all just big kids on this journey for the first time. It precious! And no matter how old we get we can still discover new things about ourselves and the world around us🧡 (cheesy I know)

[@kennedytyler7717]

“IF MAI CAN DO IT, I CAN DO IT” is my new motto

[@NimbusMaxLogJoWak]

this is my fave video❤ having your mom by your side gives you comfort and love❤❤❤

[@Switilicious]

i love mai like this, so much happier and her trying to mend everything at her own pace. i love you and love to see you like this

[@lucid8394]

The look mai's mom gave after finding out her ✨iconic✨ mirror costs freaking $400 had me lmao "20 sucks" 💗💐 I love you Mai 💗😾

[@420Xing]

It really does show how much an environment (people and places) can have an impact on your mental health. Mai looks so much happier now, you can see it on her face, her eyes and her mindset, she’s gotten so far and is a really big inspiration to a lot of people, including me❤

[@rh0daaa]

Everything about this is so wholesome and the amount of self growth you have done really shows!!! I am insanely happy for you

[@aleenastephens7223]

mai ur a whole vibe and i love it. so proud of everything you’ve accomplished at the age of 20. ❤️❤️

[@animalz55]

After being a teen, twenty really did feel weird. I liked 21 because of the convenience of being able to legally buy alcohol and all that, but 22 was so unexpectedly fun! I just turned 27 and I honestly had one of the best birthdays I’ve had in a really long time this year. Didn’t even cry😂💁🏽‍♀️. Happy 20th, hope this year you accomplish everything you strive for!

[@sudharshinisurendran8086]

Mai is just such a fun person. Wish I had a friend like her bro

[@thefloridagal]

She is ur friend ❤

[@janaaa8347]

the fact i have been watching ur vlogs since i was in high school and now I am now the same age as you and seeing that you are becoming independent just makes me happy for you. I wish you happiness bb💘

[@louisepng]

HAPPY BDAY MAI❤ the relationship she has with her mum is top tier😊

[@gaby.arlert4569]

i find mai's videos so comforting she's a creator i can never get tired of watching, she so real with what she does in her life and for her to be 20 and living the life, i aspire to be like her

[@rachelmyers6767]

I teared up when your mom came out in her fancy dress to sing to you. 🥲 so pure

[@mimischaefer8086]

i love mai’s new place, the vibe is amazing. also a great way to organize your kitchen is by convenience. like cutting boards and knives in the island

[@annarezkova4438]

Your videos just give me so much comfort. I will just rewatch all of them constantly. You are such a transparent and real person. Thank you for that! ❤

[@hayley-yi7ge]

I love how the dogs now have their own outdoor space where they can be loud and run away its so cute

[@dwabihege5879]

Can we just appreciate that she never fakes her thumbnails and always serves

[@bunnyrabbitgirl]

Save money, live better, love your mom! She's amazing! Also loving your vlogmas! I'm way older than you Mai but I still find you hilarious, real and relatable!

[@anastasiahupi2342]

I love the new editing style. Just simple yet really comforting!🥰

[@sarra0104]

If Mai sits in front of the camera and just talks for hours i would feel entertained that's how much I love her and interfered she is

[@hamburger9724]

I actually really love that you are speaking both English and Vietnamese in your vlogs with your mum and that Happy Birthday set up is gorgeous. 💖🥳🎂

[@kat-luvrr]

i love how mai takes so much time out of her day to pay attention to her viewers, especially with moving and vlogmas. i really appreciate that part of her that a lot of other creators don’t have

[@pamelaleal3695]

My favorite part of the vlogs is your mom cooking 🥹 I’m living abroad and watching your mom giving you love by cooking/surprise you just took me back home in a nostalgic way 🤍🤍 Edit:20 doesn’t suck and will understand that in a few years

[@ho3s.luv_ireland]

Bro watching mais progress through out the years after moving out at 15 makes it look possible for so many other people and it just inspires me so much

[@amandabradley6256]
