Evelyn I'm so sorry to hear about your apartment situation :( With the amount of effort ur putting into your vids and how aesthetic they look, I'm sure the algorithm's gonna kick in soon and bring u the well-deserved followers you deserve! You're a solo living inspiration, sending positive thoughts your way💪

[@tapiocapress]

Aiiii... getting evicted by surprise for no fault of your own is bad enough, having to get out in 5 days is madness. I think I would have a hard time packing my stuff in 5 days. Let alone having to arrange some other place to stay.... And you just decide to go to the theatre, I would probably just sit there in anxiety and the whole performance would get past me. You're a strong woman you can manage this!

[@tapiocapress]

to be fair I also spent a lot of time sitting there in anxiety hahaha...just can't afford to do it in the theater because the tickets were not cheap😂

I had that experience too in Shanghai. They knocked down one side of wall in my apartment. The kitchen was completely ruined by law enforcement. I was very disappointed at how i was being treated as a person. That had me make my mind to live somewhere else outside China. If you wonder why I got evicted, it's just a law suddenly passed to prohibit house owner leasing out one unit to more than tenants. No grease period given. And they broke in my house while I was on a work trip.

I’m so sorry you had to go through this :( I’ve been living in my new rental for two months when i got a letter saying that the building had been sold to a construction company and i had to move out in ten months. although i still have plenty of time to find a new place and move out (i still have about seven months left) i never really felt at home anymore. I had a bunch of wall decor and small renovations i wanted to do here, but now it all seems pointless and i feel like i’m in limbo, waiting for my time here to end so i can move on and find a place where i can feel comfortable. it really sucks. i hope you can find a place to feel at home soon too

I'm so sorry for the legal hassle and being evicted on such short notice, this must have been so stressful!! You are a strong, courageous young lady!

[@jjhollenkoppell2975]

OH MY GOODNESS!!! So sorry you had to go through that but you will be wiser for it, you handled it like a champion. The place was adorable

[@RongRoseLiu]

Your view of traditional Beijing rooftops was amazing! (Take THAT Paris lol). Looking pretty in the green dress in the park and making the most of your neighbourhood while you can... that’s the spirit!

[@tapiocapress]

thank you! missing that view already...trying to stay sane in the middle of all the madness:)

[@ahenqs1]

Hi. I know this is an older video, but I still wanted to say... YOU GOT THIS! Don't give up on yourself. I am praying for you in your journey. God bless. Also, your cat is sooooo cute! I have 4 cats (Kamsahabnida, Reeses, Pumpkin, and Kitter-Bug (Kitty-Mom)), so I love seeing cats (any animals, really... well, not spiders...) in videos. :)

[@warmandtoasty]

omg so sorry to hear this…really admire how you take these Ls in your stride (or at least appear to)! hope everything turns out ok, sending u lots of love ❤

[@tapiocapress]

Thank youu💕 things are much better now:)

[@carlcruz4718]

It's good to be able to handle things with a cool head. I am sure everything will work out, good luck.

[@tapiocapress]

Thanks a ton🙏

[@caglarsonmez6656]

I started watching your channel about a year ago when I was moving to Beijing, I should comment you are recently doing great with stop searching perfection and deal with the stress. "The clearest waters come with the greasiest mud". And a book advise you might like Hermann Hesse-Sidhartha.

[@tapiocapress]

Thank you! That’s very true. There’s never going to be a perfect situation, so gotta learn to deal with whatever comes our way. I have been reading Siddhartha actually. Thanks for the rec!

[@Uninterested_soul]

Don't worry Evelyn everything will be fine. We are always there with you.

[@tapiocapress]

Hi can I ask the name or kind of the plant that is in the white vase with water only? Thank you!

[@JeepLove]

They said "You aint got to go home but you got to get the hell up outta here!". Sorry this happened to you. Youll figure it out though. Things will work out they way they are suppose to. 🙂

[@tapiocapress]

Thank you! Trying my best:)

[@LS-zt3xz]

Ugh, so sorry this happened! You've put so much care into making your apartment into a real home, it must have been so disorienting and disappointing to have had to pack everything up and move out so quickly. Hoping you're doing better now.

[@tapiocapress]

ahhh thanks for understanding that...it was a really difficult move at the time, so glad it's over now!

[@kaf711]

[@daisywang]

[@akarmoussaittizi3012]

I was worried to hear about your eviction because I know how this could impact your Social credit system but thankfully it's not your fault but your agent.Also thank you for the Namoo Nara's Endlessly song,it's the discovery of the day for me.

[@mohammedalbalwi5380]

Can you have your WeChat account? I'm coming to study in China by selecting Beijing, and I need some help on how to choose the right accommodation, knowing Beijing, and the regulations and simple details.
