Whiskey boba and butter ramen! (ft. chat's cursed recipes) 🎂 Ying's birthday bash!

[@ying_verse]

I'm gonna be real with y'all for a moment. I've been fighting a LOT of burnout recently, from both my day job and in my content creation. This stream was literally from May and it's not getting posted until 4 months after because I just haven't been able to find the energy to get anything done recently. Maybe I'll get through this, maybe I won't. Maybe you've noticed that my uploads have slowed dramatically. I've been having trouble finding the drive and motivation that I used to have. It's probably out there somewhere, but right now I'm too tired to see anything worth working toward in the future. At the time of this stream, I was just coming out of a different rut. I was feeling pretty hopeful about maybe going full time on content creation soon, and I thought I knew why I loved doing this work so much. Rewatching it now, it feels like a different person. I hope to be able to find that person soon again. Until then, I'll do my best to keep things up and get rest where I can. We have some other more personal videos backlogged that I'll try to get uploaded soon, and a few exciting sponsors coming up as well. It'll be an uphill battle keeping up with it all, but I'll do my best! Just like I said in this video and countless times before, thank you for choosing to spend your time with me. It has always meant a lot, and it will continue to be my one driving force above all else. I'll do my best to get back on my feet. If anyone out there reading this is also struggling, I'm sending you my solidarity, my energy, and my love. We'll get through this. 💪

[@shinkisabukuno2437]

thank you, for everything. You truly lighten up our days with what you already do. You're an amazing stream/youtuber.

[@rankingofshojo4108]

Thank you, Ying. We will get through this. :).

[@user-gr9wi6km3l]

Happy belated birthday Ying, please take care of yourself!

[@higanbana6296]

Thank you Ying for posting, you've been doing your best! Please remember it's okay to take one day at a time, and that it's okay to take a break ❤️❤️❤️

[@joshhu02]

I dont watch your content much, but when I do, it puts a smile on my face (ur energy is scarily contagious ;0) be sure to take mental health breaks and drink water and all that jazz, you(we) will get through this!

mama ying giving ying a huge bottle of vodka is lowkey a mood

[@mailman35419]

The beautiful queens returns. I come to pay my simp tribute. I hope it is adequate.

[@starryeyedinput]

in everything you upload, i'm increasingly humbled by the warmth and earnestness you approach content creation with. the vibes of the stream and this video are immaculate, and i'm so touched to have been apart of it

[@ying_verse]

😭 this is SO sweet you're gonna make me cry!!!! i'm glad you enjoyed the vibes, thank you for the well wishes to vickii as well!!!!!!

[@starryeyedinput]

@@ying_verse of course!!!

[@depressedsodaguy]

I know that that this doesn't have anything to do with the video but I just wanted to say thank you when I first found you I immediately fell in love with your content like something pulled me straight into watching your videos (probably because I have adhd and I just knew you had it too lmao) Your videos make me so happy and there's nothing I can really do to repay what you did for my happiness and wellbeing thank you so much Ying

[@urban_monk5038]

Ok but that sweater?? It’s so freaking cute???

[@nikk-named]

I also constantly spin in the kitchen. I move to get something, move to the wrong place, spin a few times, then remember what I'm originally wanting to get and then arrive at my destination. It is an escential step. I enjoy your vibe. It's a lot of fun. And I also hope you get your rest and recover. Sending love

[@helloidontknow4543]

A single minute in and Ying already has like 4 different types of alcohol out xd I'm writing this comment as Ying is making scream faces on the metal pot and screaming I'm just gonna ignore that and finish my comment ahaha... Anyways happy birthday yingg🎉🎉🎉🎉 --> Edit: alright now that I've finished the video I want to make a more serious comment. Ying I hope you realise that all of us are able to bond over genshin, tears of thermis, music etc because of you and the hard work that you've put and I'm grateful for the community that you have help built. Hope we can continue to celebrate ur birthday in the future and make more happy birthday memories.

[@rosesandcats4865]

happy belated birthday ying !! take your time and don't stress yourself out too much. breaks are very important and sometimes we as people forget that. i wish you an amazing week and i hope that you have a wonderful day !!

[@Eki_________]

Thank you for the video!!! Definitely interested in trying the 'cursed' recipes myself. It has been such fun and inspiring to watch you. I hope you can rest well when needed and that the burn out will pass soon! Please stay as healthy as possible

[@PopRocksOTP]

I DONT CARE HOW LONG AGO YOUR BIRTHDAY IS, ITS A CRIME NOT TO WISH YOU A HAPPY YEAR so happy birthday :D

[@camilatamanaha3709]

Happy Birthday Ying!! Love your videos!!

[@Porcelainemoon]

I just wanted to put a big thank you Because after seeing the birthday website part in this video I decided to do the same for my own friend group. By this point we've made a whole 5 birthday websites!! And it may seem a liiiittle silly but I want to thank you and this video for giving me this idea. Because it's been absolutely incredible.

[@zuoranran]

Was not part of the community at the time of the stream, but happy belated birthday! Haven’t been here since the beginning but it’s so inspiring to see your growth and how you spark so much joy in others including myself. Wishing you many more happy days throughout the year where you can celebrate with friends🎉

[@primadonut]

Belated happy birthday, Ying! I found you around a month ago and I've been enjoying all of your content so much! I started playing Genshin because of your videos (something my friends have been trying to get me into since its release) and I'm having so much fun with it

[@aroacecreature]

When I downloaded Twitch (because of you Ying, btw), I remember I started watching the VOD from this day and then my silly ND brain decided it didn't want to watch VODs anymore so I never saw everything 😆 Anyway, today was struggle but watching this video made my night better! Thank you so much for everything 💜

[@butterlous]

We love getting emotional bestie! So proud of you happy Birthday Queen of Voice acting, queen of crying, queen of cosplaying and many more!!! U.W.U

[@thevoicesarewinning210]

Ying's positivity always motivates me and makes my day T^T

[@beepmeepful]

Hope you feel more rested and at peace! ❤ I really enjoy the vibe of your streams and uploads, and the lovely community you’ve built up. Whenever your next vid is ready, I’ll be looking forward to watching!

[@acat.astrophic]

Tbh it kinda looks like Shenhe’s specialty, anyways HAPPY BIRTHDAY QUEEN❤❤❤

[@WolfHaileyy17]

Best KZbin thumbnail of all time! It’s cute, I love the video! Happy belated birthday! ❤️

[@hnFyA8S]

Happy birthday ❤❤

[@KuyaaaRenz]

This is one of the first few streams I've joined in, and I was just hiding in KZbin bc Twitch scared me for the longest time. After watching the whole thing, I'm surprised on how genuine you and your friends are to each other, on and off cam. And that felt so nice and cozy. Genuineness in this digital world is rare. So that got me coming back to you and your community. Few streams later, you became the 2nd person on Twitch I've ever subbed to and watch consistently regardless of the stream topic. Will never get tired of asking "What's tea for today? :cozyYing:" Thank you for being you, Ying. I'm glad to be able to walk and join this journey with you, and that also means we join you to rest and stop for a moment to rest from burnout (yes I read the pinned comment). Together, with the Yingferno.

[@CullenKawano]

Love love loved this video!! Happy Happy belated Birfday!!! I toast my tea to you, too many many more happy years of super awesomeness!!!

[@elaishane8886]

Just read the top comment, I gotta say I'm sending all my support so you hopefully can get better, and to tell you that this video was amazing and really funny and it made my day. Thank you for your content, Ying!

[@Suzzy83]

I’m really late but HAPPY BIRTHDAY✨ I love your content so much and your energy is really comforting to watch, thank you for being you 🎉

[@jacaronie]

this was one of my most favorite streams! honestly, i almost can't believe it was that long ago.. love your videos and content regardless of whenever they're uploaded!!

[@Alicia-de2wi]

Happy belated birthday Ying! (Sorry know you said it in the stream but just a wee bit late to the party) You're an amazing human bean and you and the content you put out always brings a smile on our faces :D you have our love and support in whatever you need to do, thank you Ying for everything :))))

[@fardareismai4495]

I watched the Ayato stream literally yesterday, this is perfect timing haha

[@nafisnevermind1551]

WAHHH ANOTHER YING KITCHEN VIDDD these are really entertaining to me for some reason...

[@aki_4191]

Thank you for all your vids! It always brings a smile to my face I hope you will get through the tough time

[@aaron_guzman]

I don't know if it's today, tomorrow or if it already past but Happy Birthday, Ying! 🎂🎁 PD: Hope that Raiden Ei is taking notes to know how to cook this dish with boba.

[@leyyong6423]

happy birthday! and no matter what you're going through, 你能度过这个难关！加油！！💪💪

[@nyasputin]

ying, do not underestimate the power of the vodka. happy (very very belated) birthday

[@fhiwjsj4974]

We share the same birthday, that's so cool! Anyways i want to say that your content is truly enjoyable and happy late birthday!

[@larrywest42]

OMG ... In the first minute of the first video of yours I've watched, you've taught me there is such a thing as Ginger Liqueur, which I now need to find ASAP. Another happy subscriber!

[@ying_verse]

I hope it serves you well!! There are two major brands; the one I got is less gingery and there’s another one out there (I think a British brand?) much heavier on the ginger haha

[@SilentRenagade]

Happy belated birthday, didn't even know I missed this stream. Hope to catch your next one.

[@nikitakassier4869]

Bestie remember to take rests and treat yo self! Sending you back the same positive vibes and wishing you only happy things :)

THEY TRIED TO MESS WITH ME BUT IT ALL TURNED OUT FINE

[@jordansutherland183]

At 3:10 when it was some lid fun, it at first sounded like Dory’s whalespeak from finding Nemo 😂

[@sapphiredoki]

13 seconds ago LOL I love ur channel ying, you where the one who made me learn some Chinese!!

[@himmel_channel]

🤣🤣🤣 just the 1st taste test of the drink, you can already tell from Ying's face even after she added the ice cream that it was a disaster at least the ramen was a success 🍾🍾🍾

[@sssbstads]

Happpbirthdayyy!

[@guizhong805]

3:20 binary fission in ying

[@dorkofchops]

It was fun to be there for this wild ride. 🤣😅

[@sylvs7709]

this was my very first Ying stream and I didn't watch the whole thing :') I didn't get to wish you a happy birthday at the time so here's a belated happy birthday from me ^^

[@ragmamale4783]

Happy late bday !!

[@ailynmu2993]

莺姐late生日快乐啊！！！

[@AruLily]

When your mum trusts you enough to actually buy and give you vodka AND leave it with you without worry you'll get drunk, because she trusts you not to.

[@Ink2Screen]

GODDAMNIT YING now I *have* to make this ramen /does it now.

[@Elytradragon]

hi ying! I put this video on as a distraction when I was getting a blood test lol

[@ricebro7044]

Happy 4 month delayed birthday :D

Ying’s special dish

[@LowKeyTired-q7d]

Ramen yee hee

[@kvbsuhrudainivas2869]

You have the same birthday as my best friend!!

[@jetaimesooshi]

I am now also using gravity to bring back my tears to my tear ducts. didn't fall so I'm not crying...doesn't count

[@natsume2537]

Happy birthday Ying! May your days be blessed tremendously (⁠ﾉ⁠◕⁠ヮ⁠◕⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠*⁠.⁠✧. Always looking forward to your videos. It always makes my day. Thank you Ying!

[@AshyGr33n]

Whisky boba sounds good af. Let's see if the video changes that. Edit: yeah there's a reason why most boba places use tea concentrates to get the tea flavor... plus that's a lot of alcohol, I was imagining it would be a splash XD

[@SrNpc-fy2hx]

alcohol? iuuuggh, yes please.

[@tripletoruses]

hold on.... how did i miss the fact that we HAVE THE SAME BIRTHDAY 🤦‍♂️ this was cursed through and through, also currently crying in the club at the kudoboard

[@rintaichou]

🐧🐧

[@GalaxyEevee_]

Not me recreating the ramen and eating it now

[@ying_verse]

omg wait how was it

[@GalaxyEevee_]

@@ying_verse it was pretty good - I tried it with a few slight alterations but it was still great

I have to let this out of my system... You look so beautiful. And its fun to watch cooking show, mainly because of the "crazy" part

aawww, instead of Lychee Jelly, maybe nata de coco would have been a nice substitute

I CONSIDERED THAT i've never tried it but i saw it at the grocery store!! ty for the rec, maybe I'll try it next time hehe

[@phofor4552]

Cook book when?

This entire video is just "Hi, I have ADHD, come cook with me". 🤣

[@ying_verse]

IS IT THAT OBVIOUS LOL
