Please come back. we miss you!

[@carlaaxume4050]

Miss you Marsela!! Come back soon, your videos are so inspiring. Hope you are doing great!

[@JennAlma]

you crossed my mind today Marsela, hope your doing well! Miss you 🥺

[@islandfox3983]

I remember watching your videos regularly a while ago but don't see them anymore. Hope all is well with work and startup. For 2024, i think the tech landscape has changed quite a bit. Layoffs, advent of AI (even for generating functional code), fewer startups etc. Would love to hear your take on these. Like ... just a simple sit-down video talking to the camera. I remember you saying that, earlier in your career, you left positions in big tech companies like Google and preferred opportunities to work in smaller startups (due to your own startup ambitions). I thought that was a very interesting approach. So yeah, please share your persepective on the job market, new things to learn in 2024, wisdom and pitfalls from your startup adventure, -- anything. We are here to listen. 🙂

[@delfixx]

randomly rewatching your vlogs while having dinner, bc i miss them :'( hope you’re doing great!! xx

[@Seolhwaneul]

I recently remembered your vlogs and looked through my search history but apparently this was your last for a while! Hope all is well and you'll upload vlogs again 🥹

[@jessicataylor5882]

i highly HIGHLY suggest Everki backpacks!! they can be a lil pricey but are made specifically with travel in mind so they are super easy to travel with and hella durable, they also have a lifetime quality assurance warranty thats included with your purchase in case anything happens!! i've had mine since august 2019 and have brought it literally to new zealand with me for study abroad (im from the US) and i dont have a single tear, rip, or ANY issues with it!! i got the contempro backpack and it carries SO much, and its super comfortable. the only thing is that mine doesnt really have a waterbottle pocket on the side, but i actually have space for it inside the backpack usually when i use it and have never had issues with it spilling

[@sheilahc3209]

I see Marsela’s video, I click Like before even watching it.💖

[@lesterjohn583]

It's been 5 months since her last video... 😢

[@oksanatomashenko1856]

Marsela is happy with her boyfriend. Maybe she is no more interested in career and will be housewife. You see that her startup wasn’t successful. Marsela was inspiring when lived alone and work for her future.

[@stars_pov]

Are you still planning to upload on your Marsela Codes channel or is that on the back burner cause of the new job? hope you're well!

[@amyfaurote1488]

You remind me of my niece Marriam. She's beautiful, professional and humble. Peace 🕊️

[@richardottley4611]

the salmon meal with peso potatoes looks yummy.. great job 😅✌🏾💯

[@alicia10387]

Miss you, hope you are doing okay!

[@sembutininverse]

Hi Marsela, time to time i come here watch some of your old videos, we really missed you, may we havent seen each other in person, but, i really like you, now at this point i am a little bit concern about health and your well beings, life is hard and some times challenging, i hope you are doing okay, i myself if i get a sudden call or text from a friend or family member, it makes me happy, i hope this comment on your video do the same for you. and sorry for my broken English, its not my first language, i'm Persian, i speak Persian and Turkish as my first language, yeah XD.

[@SarahMahmoud365]

Beautiful and smart girl…I want to be just like you when I grow up, lol. Your taste in everything is on point.

[@sheilahc3209]

Marselaaaa ❤ Where’s the new video?!! I’ve watched the latest a gazillion times already. Girl, you need to do daily vlogs.

[@ItsKingMyles]

we all need the gigabrain sweaters now

[@sonali5910]

Miss you marsela. Hope you are doing well

[@veronicamayer5661]

I know it's been a long time and you're probably not interested in doing KZbin anymore but if you're ever thinking about creating new videos again, I think a lot of people would be here to cheer you on 💕

[@staceyh2624]

Hi hope you’re doing well. Hope to see your next video soon 😃👍🏽✌️❤️

[@kristielim3294]

The cat in the background at 6:38 😂😂😂

[@MEmneina]

Bahahaha! I came to comment the same thing! He’s obsessed with his mama

[@stacksondeck970]

Can you share more details about the startup? Also what industry are you in for engineering?

[@TristanBurgener]

totally read this as worst week of my life, glad to see its not that

[@jill.k]

okay but what nike shoes are they.. i am looking for something similar!! also fyi i love your vlogs!! :)

[@nitinyadav3094]

I just realised that I haven’t your videos in my feed. I hope you get back to making vlogs again. :)

[@philip8232]

In mine, and some other European countries we have e-ID in our phones that we can use instead of the paper document. You don't have anything like that in California?

[@Scarppegios]

Hahaha I hate typing on mac keyboards with long nails too! Try getting a tall mechanical keyboard, I got a prebuilt keychron. Not into custom keyboards too much but they have a tall profile!

[@cesarocbudev]

Are you ok? :C haven't see you for a while

[@An-yh2bl]

I was wondering too... I hope she is doing great. She hasn´t posted on Instagram either for a while... :(

[@happinesss2]

I recommend rejoining another studio if there's one nearby because that studio has mishandled too many of your pieces, maybe about half of the ones you've shown us at least and I don't think "accidents happen" covers that because it seems more like a skill issue. They should know how close to put pieces together... They give me major unprofessional vibes. I also didn't like how they gave you a super super high shelf, like the highest, for your pieces; it seemed dangerous for you to go up there and down. Hope you can find a better place because a lot of those pieces they ruined were very, very cute.

[@vegas9440]

Was that sweet potatoes or carrots that you baked and put into the salad

[@ESArnau]

Hi, im from Spain so i would like to know what is special in California that so many people live there? Is it worth it despite being an expensive place compared to other states?

[@AlfredGuimaz]

Good weather, everything type of culture lives here so diverse cuisine and stores, and liberal laws, so you have more autonomy with day-day things and beautiful nature that is nearby allowing you to do anything from surfing to snowboarding in a matter of hours.

[@m.m8981]

Hi, I had a question for you since you are in that field and have experience! I am currently in college for Software Engineering what do you think are the chances for me of getting a job in that field as a lady that wears a head scarf and covers the face due to religious reasons? I would really appreciate if you can tell me what you think!

[@CaliburPANDAs]

coding tutorials when?

[@richardottley4611]

wow that's crazy lol 😅trying to buy wine, and having to show ID.. WHAT?! 😂 it probably wasn't worth buying wine that day. No worries 😅 stay bless 🙏🏾

[@aishwaryavpkadam]

are you reading Harry Potter?

[@dudoklasovity2093]

looks like a lonely life to me. But hey, it's LA....

[@oksanatomashenko1856]

Are you going to upload videos on your coding channel? Miss the time, when you lived alone and had inspiring life. Looks like you loose yourself in a relationship. One year ago and still no startup. But you can be good housewife ana mom🔥
