I appreciate KZbinrs like you because I'm 22 and an incoming college sophomore!

[@Halls3456]

Nice vid, it is kind of crazy we are supposed to make our life decisions at 18. Good luck on your new career path🙂

[@TaylorSpencer]

Right!! Wayyy too young to make that decision!

[@jaetok]

I agree. The only thing that feels like it’s worth it in the crazy crazy world is travel.

[@BrookePainter]

So glad I found your channel. I'm 26, just completed my first year in college, and made the dean's list in both semesters. And I'm pursuing computer science too :) This would not have happened if I were 18

[@TaylorSpencer]

Omg!! Congrats- that’s amazing to hear and I’m glad there’s someone else on the same path as me 🥹 I believe in us!

[@Sarah-hr8xo]

26, went thru so many traumatic experiences and had a child at 24 so i had no time then to get a degree. now im pursuing one in criminal justice!

[@TaylorSpencer]

Good luck!!

[@Samkelisiwe_Mgadi]

Love how you navigate this life thing. So free spirited 💫. Best of luck with your studies Queen. Loved the life update ❤

[@TaylorSpencer]

Thanks queen!!!! 😭❤️❤️

[@davidball9041]

I think that's a great career choice Taylor. I also love the way your life is so chaotic. And you handle it all so well. You have a great attitude. Nice life update👍

[@TaylorSpencer]

Thank you!! ❤️❤️

[@Fourwindsofsuccess]

Yikes. I’m 28 years old about to go back to college currently. I have a lot of major projects in my life I have to reset. It’s a must do. I got my associates at 26 and now back on the goal to get my bachelors which I probably won’t finish until I’m 30-31 years old. I’m positive about though but thank you for this video ❤

[@levicornish6175]

im 26 years old and I am going back to college after getting an English degree, working in publishing for 2 years, and then getting laid off. I 've decided to pursue pharmacy because I want to work as a clinical pharmacist but the first time I went to college I was only 17 and didn't really know what I wanted to do. So i'm going back school next January and I am super excited and nervous.

[@jeffa2006]

I've started coding couple months ago. Main reason is so I can code from anywhere in the world

[@TaylorSpencer]

how's it going?

[@DarphTediz]

Good luck to you in comp sci, I love to see more people joining the field. I recommend you take sometime to research job demand, with tech things are always shifting so try and find out what's companies are looking for that would ensure you have the right bargaining chips to get those sweet remote jobs which everyone wants these days. Also take the time to learn as much as you can about things they don't have time to go over in great detail in class for some reason companies love the people that code in their free time, and nobody ever said you know too much for our job LOL.

[@user-ri6yr4ol2u]

I love how real you are I feel so late to go back to school I am 20

[@tristanj.watson2689]

I feel so motivated

[@TaylorSpencer]

Lmao do you

[@solacevizn]

I’m 25, never been to college before and this gives me more motivation, thanks for sharing your thoughts!

[@loafs3264]

Yasss excited for your new chapter 👏🏾👏🏾 you got this!!

[@LewisLivingLife]

Lowkey late to this vid but I'm doing CS next year at university and I'll be 22 when I start. Good luck on your journey. Glad to know I'm not alone.

[@TaylorSpencer]

Good luck!!!

I am in my early 40s a kidney transplant recipient and I am pursuing my acting career. 3yrs 3 weeks along

[@asiamendeztorres3290]

[@TaylorSpencer]

Right!! The time will pass anyways and next thing you know you’ll be finished!

IM HERE FOR THE STARTING COLLEGE IN THE 20’s. I just turned 26 and I’m trying to navigate this. I’m surprised there’s not a lot of vloggers doing this niche yet

[@stayambitious]

Yess! the time is going to pass anyway❤

Congratulations 🎊 Taylor for continuing your college education.

31 year old freshman. 12 years as a menial laborer. Found my resolution when talking to an older worker. Who mentioned he had 25 more years to retire... Decided I couldn't do menial labor (factory work/hard labor) for 40-50 more years. If you have the mental faculties for higher education, just do it. Pick a realistic/applicable degree and get it done.

[@MrKk-be2yo]

Hi Taylor, Happy new year! It's great to have you back, and even better to see that you are well. It's funny that I didn't get any notifications on your last 2 community messages despite ticking the 'all' box. KZbin!? It is hard to respond to your video without leaving you an epistle. Your openness & transparency on what you choose to share, about whatever you might be going through, is hella commendable, and I am here for all of it! No one is the repository of all knowledge. Everyday we live, we learn. Nobody has it all figured out. How many people can say they have travelled to 29 countries? That's a whole lot of education that you can't learn in no brick n mortar classroom. You might also feel that PR was not a good use of your time or resources, but trust, they do say- 'no knowledge is truly lost'. You'll make use of it one way or another. You might even find yourself double backing and/or double downing on it in the future. Life is funny like that sometimes. I have a whole lot to say, but I'll leave it there (please refer to my earlier line about an epistle). Do what you love, we will all figure it out! P.S: added you on LinkedIn after seeing one of your old videos (during the period you left us 'out in the cold'), as that is the only 'social media' site I'm on. Add me back 😀 🇳🇬

[@antonievanvuuren1381]

Hey Taylor, thanks for another video. Happy 2024. I wish you all the best and plenty of videos in 2024. 🎉🎉

[@TaylorSpencer]

Happy 2024!!!

[@ryley7123]

I’m 17 about to go to college soon and have no clue what to do. I haven’t traveled anywhere in my life and know I want to make sure that happens. I’m really looking into nursing but who the frick knows man. 😎ugh modeling sounds fun but I have no clue where to start. ykw maybe I’ll start a KZbin channel too. Anyway u go girl , you got this. Love how you aren’t afraid to change 🙌

[@TaylorSpencer]

Travel travel travel! I learned so much about myself and what I want to do from that! Nursing is a great career as well because they have travel nursing and it pays really well! & remember whatever you decide, you can always change at any point in your life :) good luck!!

[@evannssugarbaby229]

I made the decision, it seem like the only step foward in pursuing a career. I am definitely against the us post secondary education and tuition. I even joined a free college tuition campaign. I 'm low income and diagnosed disabled as well plus a unpaid full time caregiver. I have only taken non accredited certification courses all online. There's two I am debating from. Online and one on canpus. Its nice seeing others in the same mindset with a matured mindset. We come in more aware and I had 11-13 jobs the first two years high school. 😅

Hi Taylor, Amazing Video! Keep Up The Incredible Work n Best Of Luck In School. Hope You Had A Great Day, I Enjoyed Watching. Also Also Hope Your New Year Start Has Been Good.

I graduated with a degree years ago, didn't have connections. Tried to get connections didn't know until later on. Might switch to computer science and coding boot camp.

[@LahKing66]

I'm debating going to college at 22 to study accounting. I must say you've had an interesting set of careers.

[@silvrsurfer]

You did the right thing, a web devolpment certificate is better than a coding bootcamp academically.

Do you recommend dj mini 4 pro?❤

[@alanekek7033]

I currently work as Software Engineer but I’m debating getting a second bachelors for Math + CS or Electrical engineering. I’m not sure if it will be worth it but the field I want to go into is math heavy.

Hey I like your video nice. I like your video going back to school, (college) as an adult in your late 20's. I am an adult, 20 years old. My birthday was on Thursday May 9th this month. I can't believe I will be 21 years old next year on Friday May 9th, 2025. How old are you if I may ask?
