🌺Aloha, I’m Katie! I'm a Filipina teen studying abroad at Cornell University. I love creating products at the intersection of technology, entrepreneurship, and design to uplift communities I'm part of. I want to do too many things, and I want to make it all work… so that’s what my KZbin channel is about. Join me on this crazy journey and together, we'll learn, struggle, and hopefully find the courage to live our dreams.

Hey Katie. I knew it! You could take an otherwise expected boring topic and created a lively and joyous "social experiment" and showed how in your roommate experience you encountered.a microcosm of life with others. Finding others, conscious fundamentals (like compatible faith and general habits), consensus on particulars, sharing work, reframing difficulties to include personal problems that inevitably arise, accommodating, not insisting on demanding justice, pick battles that are meaningful. The attitude that prevailed (a spirit of fun) is great. Katie, the "blessings of having a good roommate to share life iwth and grow together with" as Sam said is generalizable to society as a whole, something you could extrapolate to other groups. Thank you for another good Saturday morning.

[@kushagratiwari7950]

that was soo fun and informative to watch! ( well tbh just like all your video) ps- could you also try making a video about ED, given the ED decision dates that are coming up? thanks!

[@edwardlacson1011]

wait this is so wholesome 🥺 . . . also video suggestion: perhaps let people ask your old professors questions?

[@KatieTracy]

[@brooklynzhu6418]

Hey Katie! I'm an incoming freshman at Cornell and I love your channel! I was wondering if you had any advice abt rooming freshman year --- would you recommend getting a single or going random for a double? Also, do you know if it's a lot more difficult to make friends without a roommate?

[@chang958]

Why is it( Cornell) lonely , if you have so many roommates, do you mean the STEM students are always in library or something, you guys look so happy and vibrant so how is Cornell lonel?

[@chang958]

7:00 how did you have 3 singles and still ate roommates ? Is is a suite with only 3 singles ?does Cornell clean suites and standalone dobles?
