q&a! college in hawaii, my new major, postgrad plans...

[@tazmin5020]

It’s kinda great to see someone normalise not knowing what you want to do first try. Cycling through majors and colleges should be welcomed and normal, we’re all so young and deciding our lives so it’s refreshing to see someone be open about experimenting with paths. Good luck!

[@siopao25ful]

i've been following you since you were at fordham. it feels like i'm on this journey with you! i transferred unis around the same time as you so i'm so happy that you're chasing your dreams. feels really good that you're showing the 'other side' of uni and that it's normal to not know what you want. i went from a pre-law course to an econ course HAHA not super far from one another but still quite different :)

[@no-one00]

How was the process to stransfer unis? Like, what is the process.

[@lolawilson1027]

Watching this reminds me of why Barnard accepted you, you’re confident and smart but you also have compassion and humility 🥰 I love your channel 😎

[@kanikamehra8129]

can you do a vid talking about how you were able to pull off going to hawaii for a semester? How you find a safe place, costs, etc?

[@vannesa893]

plssssss

[@madelaeine]

i've been watching you since you were a dance major and i really love to see you grow and choose the path that you really like! always here to support you izzy ❤️

[@maureenshea4268]

How do you handle the time difference between your classes in nyc and the time of day in Hawaii? It’s a 6 hour difference.

[@ianklassen340]

You seem like one of the most hardworking people I’ve seen and always keep a positive energy which is really awesome to see. Thanks for bringing positivity into peoples lives through your vlogs and we all know your gonna kill it this year. Good luck!

[@Gavin-dm1zu]

Taking all my courses online at home. Sometimes will get into arguments with my parents because of very trivial things. Really wish to be in a dorm room with friends or at least live by myself.

[@mochicookies8563]

to see someone going through a longer route and finally doing smth she enjoys is such an inspiration:)

[@nephrodoc4120]

Smart career choices young lady. Im a physician, and can tell you that your undergrad major does not really matter, so do what you enjoy. Med School will teach you what you need to know when the time comes. Good luck!

[@monarene44]

Wow! Hawaii for the next few months! Pre-med course track. Can things even possibly go better for you. Great advice you gave on getting more confident. I would love to see any outings to restaurants or the beach etc while you are there. Highlight of 2020 for me was having made it this far. I’ve had more time to organize and make concrete future plans. I feel like I see a light at the end of this tunnel called 2020. I was very surprised you had issues being a poc in nyc. I thought it was as diverse as it gets there. I’ll check out your links on that. Stay safe. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@mrudul2878]

Yay! I'm a high school senior and I'm applying to colleges now (I've actually been considering Barnard). I've been watching your videos since when you were a freshman at Fordham :) I'm interested in majoring in neuroscience or biology and pursuing medical school, so I'm super glad that you're going on the same track. Can't wait for your future videos!

[@bellsfs]

It takes a lot of courage to change majors and finding something you really connect, you're truly an inspiration! Good for you! Love your vlogs :) Hi from Brazil! 👋🏻😘

[@caitlindavid4442]

Yay so glad to see you again! It's comforting to know that there's other people who aren't set on their major as well. I wish you all the best this semester, I'm sure Hawaii will treat you well((: ps I recommend the sunrise shack for acai bowls hehe, I haven't been myself but it looks really good!

[@skloise]

Hawaii looks good on you, Izzy! Excited for you and looking forward to the vlogs to that are about to come.

[@_moonix]

I’m from Oahu but living in Upstate New York and I’m so jelly! I miss home. Enjoy the Aloha state!

you are so inspirational izzy, it's so refreshing to see you following your dreams 💌

[@reagan6743]

2020 highlight: moved to Colorado, changed my majored to ENVS, and fell in love with our beautiful Mother Earth :)

[@leslietorres6841]

izzy you should upload more 😭 i love your productivity vlogs

[@abigailhair6456]

Covid is tough, and less than ideal for many. But having to leave school early definitely afforded me the opportunity to spend time with family I would not have otherwise had, that’s definitely my highlight for the year thus far. Can’t wait for more videos! 💜

[@ririohs5399]

Daaamn been watching you for a long time now, goodluck on your plans to med school!✨

[@kellywong5671]

Hey I missed you, I love that you are experimenting with classes

[@SidneyEra]

My highlight was being home with family. We are all going our different ways now but it was nice to be in one house and make memories

[@lolawilson1027]

I am so happy for you! Education is truly taking you places girl 🥰

[@augrao]

it is honestly so so weird to see you in Hawaii- I live here and I also was going to school in NYC when I found your college vlogs... and now I'm back in Hawaii this year and just caught up with your KZbin channel to see you here too haha

[@SandyJiang17]

congratulations on finding such a perfect major for you!

[@LaurenJewel]

I’m so glad I found your channel, we have a similar track in so many similar interests and it’s just really inspiring to see someone doing exactly what I wanna do. I am a sophomore, and you’re really inspiring to me adore you

[@zhouyang5036]

I know everyone looks at medicine for post grad. But make sure to check out dentistry. Great work balance and hands on!

can you talk more about your background? are you first generation educated? did your family go? anyone else in your family go? how did you pay for everything? and did you do the logistics of moving to nyc yourself to hawaii? did you live in another state before country before?

[@melissajose4850]

Yay! Another Izzy video!

[@wishbone11]

So she’s in Hawaii, in a house with roommates, and not going to a Hawaii based college? Did she just look for houses to rent or did she have connections? I think those are the things we wanted answered.

[@magemily]

right?? its so weird to just move to hawaii on a whim it seems like she's treating it as a vacation of sorts and i can only hope she is respecting the people and the culture there.

[@wishbone11]

@@magemily I think she is. She doesn’t seem like the type of person that would single handedly intentionally disrespect anyone or anyplace. I just want to know more details of why and how she got to where she’s at..? But it does look like a vacation almost haha

[@magemily]

@@wishbone11 i totally agree

[@skylarsmith7270]

[@jadefrota1583]

But what??? You did not explain this well I’m so confused like, okay my classes are online soooo..... let’s go to hawaii?? This? Simples like that? And like everyone was on board? What about your parents? Like for me it seems crazy, is it just my life that is more complicated than that?

[@444fawn]

she has enough money to go, so she can

[@magemily]

exactly my thoughts. like i was left wondering why move all the way to hawaii all of a sudden?? she must be living a very privileged life..
