My Emma Chamberlain
Is Youtube Dead?
What keeps me on Youtube are these three lifestyle Youtubers: Alia Zaita, Carys Rachel, and Kate Brock.
They gave me a sense of calmness in my own home with the way that they went about their lives. They didn’t have any sense of urgency making their presence enjoyable. Being from NYC, it feels like a nice change of pace. Every action that they take is for themselves only without the pressures from society. They dress for themselves in a way that emphasizes who they are as people. Their videos to me are a way to remind myself that doing something for myself isn’t selfish but is self care. That I can take time for myself. Independence is underrated as a college student especially. To go on a walk all by yourself with music blasting in my ears and walk around nature is a dream. Doing this everyday helped me to avoid getting burnt out from being constantly surrounded by people. Watching these Youtubers gave me the grounding that I needed to know what I wanted in life. To live in an environment surrounded by peace. They are my Emma Chamberlain.
