"you can't connect the dots looking forward, you can only connect them looking back" - - omg i'm SO frickin happy for you kaiti!! seeing all those video clips is nostalgic because we've gotten to experience those moments too. can't wait to see what you do!

the besssssst!!

[@sumedhamishra4505]

I have been following your journey literally from the start of the pandemic. I remember you mentioning in one of your early videos about how distressed you were that all you internships cancelled and that you were so lost if things would workout. As someone who has witnessed your journey since the start-- and loved every bit of it-- it's so nice to see how much you've grown as an individual and a content creator and how beautifully your life has unfolded since then. Love you so much Kaiti

[@KaitiYoo]

WOW, thank you for supporting me since day one. That is so insane that you still remember those little details, I’m so honored. 🥺🫶🏼

[@sumedhamishra4505]

@@KaitiYoo Love you Kaiti, keep rocking 💗💗💗

[@hannahvllstr657]

omg same, I started following you at the beginning of the pandemic. This video shocked me so much, as so much time has passed and so many things have happened in the time since I started following you. Also, I have to add that your videos still have the same feel as they did in the beginning although they have simultaneously evolved so much Sending so much love from Germany P.S.: Have a great time in Korea I'm really jealous haha

[@ChelseaJeanBentley]

Literally this! I’m actually so proud of you Kaiti 💕

[@sushitajaishankar4726]

There is just something rustically nostalgic in ur voice in this video. I felt every word of it.. Congratulations on graduating Kaiti!! All the best for all ur future endeavors 💜

[@KaitiYoo]

Aw, this is such a beautiful compliment. Thank you so much, Sushita.

[@warmandtoasty]

hey queen! girl, you have done it again. constantly raising the bar for us all and doing it flawlessly. i’d say i’m surprised but i know who you are. i’ve seen it up close and personal. girl you make me so proud. fr though i loved this video. i've just graduated college as well (yay class of 2022!!) and i resonated with every single one of your lessons - it feels really nice that we reached similar takeaways through similar trajectories of both good & bad experiences. congrats on graduating kween!! ❤️

[@KaitiYoo]

Omg love the Michelle Obama meme citation 🤪🤪🤪🤪 CONGRADULATIONS!!! We did it!! 🥺😌

AWWWWWW girl same *hands you tissue box*

[@johannamay465]

Congratulations! I finished my second masters degree yesterday (so 7 years of college). So three more lessons: 5. when one door closes another opens, but you have to look for it and trust the process. 6. Everything happens for a reason, mostly to let you grow as a person. 7. Have faith in yourself! All the love from Austria

[@Mary-uj7rp]

omg 2 master's degrees! that's so cool!!!!!! I'm applying for a Master's degree at the University of Vienna this summer. any advice? :)

[@totallynotsonali]

I’m not sure if it’s bc I just woke up or because you’re JUST THAT AMAZING (I think a bit of both) but I’m literally crying right now 😭 I’m so happy for you, and I can’t wait to see what comes next, Kaiti!!

[@KaitiYoo]

LMAOOOO NOT YOU PASSING OUT. Aw, thank you so much for your constant kindness and support, Sonali.

[@KaitiYoo]

Thank you so incredibly much, Alyssa, for both your kind words and your support. I would not be anywhere near here without you!!

[@roshanipatel2258]

Got a girl reflecting on her own past four years of college and now I’m crying thank you Katie for always being vulnerable with us bc I have learned from you how to all myself to go through these feelings

This means so much to me, thank you.

“Why do I have to leave now that I’ve finally figured it out” feeling this heavy as a rising senior this fall. Thank you so much for this video 💜 good things truly do take time

[@faithannerush]

This is so much better than a vlog or a sit down. This is so raw and personal in the most aesthetic, beautiful way possible. Thank you for sharing your honest journey through this medium. It really settled my mind as an anxious applying-to-college peep. Thanks for all the work you do and for your honesty. Love ya queen😘

[@chaebinnout]

genuinely this video moved me to tears. YOU GO KAITI YOO!!! CONGRATS!

[@KaitiYoo]

omg :,) thank you, this means the world.

[@aditiduttachowdhury5730]

kaiti, i can only hope I have this much self-reflection ability after four years in college because I just finished one and I don't know if I have brain cells left. Congrats my queen, look forward to watching you take on the world

[@loripaige887]

As someone who has been feeling lost for months now after finishing my first year in college and realizing what i thought was my calling was straight out the window seeing your videos and growth is so comforting Kaiti. You are so inspiring and I know you will have a prosperous future!

[@Msskellington12]

This is definitely your best video to date and I'm on the verge of bawling my eyes out. I've graduated college five years ago and I'll graduate my master this summer, and looking back, college is definitely my pivoting point that I have not realized until now. thank you for this~

THANK YOU!!! Lol i love your username hahahaha

[@cheesycheddar555]

[@mynameismayonaise]

oh man, i really felt this one. I feel so happy and excited for you. As someone who graduated 3 years ago and is living this post-grad "adulting" life, there is so much more to experience, both good and bad. But, it is an amazing process and I know you will shine in whatever you put your mind and heart in. Congrats on graduating Kaiti, can't wait to see what else is in store for you.

[@freyazhu3746]

As someone that just finished one year of college, this video hits in a diff way. Will definitely be using the next three years to explore and learn as much as I can while staying true to myself! :) Congratulations Kaiti!

[@melovil]

Thanks for this video, Kaiti. I'm 29, I live in San Diego and I've been here for 11 years (for undergrad and some extra years). This hit all of the feelings for me in knowing it's time to move on and that I've gotten what I've needed out of here. Been job hunting for that next spot and hopefully in the Mid-West. Cheers to your next chapter and thank you for being...YOO! :)

[@aj_zafra]

i love how you made the point, "good things take time". that is something that will stick with me. congratulations once again kaiti, and although im a few years younger than you, i wish you the best in your next years of adulting :O !! i am super happy for you as well, and looking forward to future works you will produce!! :)

[@taleighcook]

Everything that you have said and felt throughout this video, resonated with me so much. I am trying to be a youtuber because I have been OBSESSED with it for as long as I can remember. And people talk negatively about it because they don’t understand or think it’s a waste of time. But I have started and I cannot wait for what is to come. I have had severe depression for awhile and when I uploaded my last video I felt happy truly happy. So thank you for being motivational, if I couldn’t follow my dreams then there would be no purpose in my life. So without a doubt I will not leave anything behind and I will enjoy the journey and be grateful that I can have one. I have been watching u grow and it’s so inspirational love ya kaiti🫶🏽

[@ela6084]

this has to be your best video kaiti. your voiceover, the clips you chose, everything was just beautiful. much love 💜

Thank YOU for sticking with me. I love you!

[@jai-bc3vk]

I am soooo so thankful that the youtube algorithm placed your vlog on my feed 2 years ago ㅠㅠㅠㅠ it was one of my lowest moments but i had your videos to look forward to 🥺 I remember playing your vlogs over and over again (i think they were about 6 at the time!!) while i was studying or eating or doing whatever 😭😭😭 time flies!! I’m on my last year of college now and watching this vlog made me so emotional 😭 i’m so so happy to see your channel grow and i cant wait for the adventures life has in store for you 🥺 i love this little corner of the internet

[@Powerof923]

I think you answered your own question a little "I've finally cracked college, why do I have to leave?" Life's about throwing yourself into new situations and learning and growing. If you've cracked the system you can't develop. Cracking college shows you're ready to move on, you've got all that you could have from it. Better to leave now than stay longer and have that environment feel stagnant (or so I've been told by my friends who stayed on to do masters)

[@the_favourite6841]

This is giving valedictorian speech 😩✋. Thank you so much for sharing kaiti. I want to be you when I grow up. 🥺

[@VanessaDike-vf5qw]

This has got to be one of my favorite videos not just from your channel, but on this entire platform. I'm class of '23 and as the end of my college experience draws closer, I feel like I've missed out on a lot and haven't made the most of it. But little pieces of encouragement like this give me hope that the things I'm so worried about today will make more sense down the road. Congratulations on graduating, and I wish you all the best in this new chapter!! :) I'll be re-watching this anytime I feel down in the dumps.

Congrats on graduating Kaiti. I am from Germany and therefore we do not have colleges and only universities and I am not even in one yet. I will start in the fall but I hope to apply some of the lessons you mentioned in this beautiful video. It's so wonderful to see that you now have such a huge fanbase because I started following you before you had 10.000 subscribers, which honestly feels surreal.

Woooow this video made me so emotional and got me thinking about my own life. Who would have thought that you had a distant relationship with your mom...I remember watching your first vlog and then immediately binged the next videos because your editing and personality were unmatchingly unique. Before Wednesday, Tuesdays became became the days. I would eagerly wait and also eat my chipotle celebrating my own published video. There's just something about you and this video was better than I expected. Better than most lessons I've learned videos. Kaitiii thanks for being you. You helped me kickstart my own channel and learn to edit better. I am so excited to see your next journey. Greetings from Germany xx Mai💜💜💜
