I mean, I was just gonna say that she looks nice in yellow, but your comment works too.
AND TEAL AND GREEN
i’m obsessed with your more personal videos omg
i'm so happy to hear it!! xxx
Omg I watch your videos! Sorry, this was just so cool to find you in the comments of a booktuber channel😂😂
Omg yes. I love your videos. sorry of that sounds cringey or annoying lmao
naz!!!!
Only a few people can pull off yellow and space buns, and emma is one of them. So cute!
you are too kind!!!
😊 you're very welcome.
You are gLOWING in that yellow, queen 💛😍
WOW you look GOOD! This hairstyle looks so cute on you! I'm glad you're doing more personal videos!
thank you love
You brother was so precious. Glad your parents kept him in your growing up loves. Most just don't talk about loss. And you are so sweet. I am 53 but I love your videos.
you are so kind! thank you for watching
i named my dog “max” because of max russo from wizard of waverly place ... it happens lol
HAHA love it
I named my guinea pig ‘lewis’ because of Lewis from H2O just add water hahaha
I named my dog Carly because of ICarly. ooof
my dog is called Bobo after Yogi Bear's friend lmao
I named by dog Belle from a Saddle Club horse
I love how she tries to build a relationship with her followers and subscribers by doing stuff like this and also doing frequent live shows and replying to comments.
you're the sweetest sydney
The black and green is so slytherin🐍
Those bead pieces are INSANE!!!! I remember doing some, but never that intricate. If you ever did some video that somehow you were able to incorporate a tutorial for those bead masks that would be so cool
Such a fun video!
I’m so sorry that church pushed you away when they should have been drawing you closer! I also found my faith through a ‘fun’ youth group experience in middle school. I have definitely had differences with some churches and more really with people in the churches. But I have never let go of my relationship with God. I hope you still have that and know it’s real. Thank you for opening up and being real, it’s easy to be what you ‘should’ when you communicate through a camera. ❤️❤️
“penguin teen” sounds like a book about an adorable penguin teen going through high school
Omg!! I can’t believe you took that Barbie picture!! I remember seeing that on Tumblr and Facebook when I was young😱 thank you for sharing all these facts with us!💖
i love your black and green hair! you should totally do it again, it looked gorgeous on you!
i've definitely been missing it haahha
I love learning more about you! Thank you so much for sharing Emma
I REMEMBER YOUR RED HAIR SO CUTE
GREEN UNDERCUT WAS MY FAVE THO
you've had such an amazing fulfilled life i love you
i love love love this
you're the sweetest ily
i just recently found your channel a few days ago and i’m obsessed with you and your love for books. you seem like a really down to earth and understanding person.
This video is so interesting and I'm really glad you were able to open up so much. I almost cried when you were talking about your brother. And it's so cool to see how creative you are in so many different ways. Your photos are amazing!
I think this is one of my favorite videos you have done! It’s awesome knowing where people have come from...it makes things more real!
Omg I really loved your hair when it was red! So much fun seeing all the old photos haha!
I love this video! It's so cool to hear you talk about random things about you, it was a great video. Something about me is that I recently started trying to write my first novel. I've been wanting to for years but I finally decided to start. It's a tough process but definitely worth it.
There are so many things you talked about that are so relatable and things I have gone through! Love that I’m not alone!
Your make up ist SO beautiful!!! I know you're a booktuber, but could you pleaaaase upload a tutorial on that look?
it's the jaclyn hill palette!! thank you
I love this! The green on bottom was gorgeous! Your life reminds me of my childhood and home and also makes me feel super proud of your accomplishments. Living in Italy for the last two years, I get a lot of my “american” connection through TH-cam and you are one of my favorites so thank you!!
I've been waiting until I got time to sit down & watch this and I just wanted to say that I love you, Emma. You're amazing, and your experiences and Instagram lives and videos and everything are really calm to me and I just want to tell you that I love you so much. I'm so proud of you and so happy for you and everything you're doing in life 💞
Thank you for sharing Emma - never would have expected any of those but that's so cool that you are so creative with photography and kandi - I'm super impressed! In addition to reading, I also love to sing more than I even might love books and I'm obsessed with music - I started a music channel on this account back in January and have since gotten more comfortable in front of cameras and I'm really enjoying growing as a singer! Love your videos Emma!
I played the cornet too! I also do oboe and French horn
OMG SO AWESOME
You talking about your brother means a lot to me because when my mom was pregnant with me she was expecting twins, but the other twin died in the womb. It hurts to think about who they could've been and how different my life would be, but hearing you talk about a sibling you never met is really touching. You as a person just inspire me
My mother's first born had the same fate as your brother, my sister almost went the same way. She had to have all her blood replaced, then another brother came without complications.
But since all those were C-section she was never supposed to have me, I was a really risky pregnancy and my mum had to bring one of her sister from Morocco to take care of me since she couldn't take care of me the first year. She was that tired and basically still recovering. (that was 30 years ago, when c-section were the equivalent of being butchered, not the cutesy tiny cut they are today)
I love that your eyeshadow matches your shirt. One thing about me is that As I child I choose the profession I wanted to go into and it has never changed which is strange as many of my friends have changed their thoughts on what they wanted to do. I have and still do want to become a lawyer specialising in human rights and anti corruption and recently your videos on mental health has made me realise how important mental health issues are in this field.
Thank you so much for this video! You are soooo creative! Your photography is amaaaazing ;)
Love love looooove the personal vids!!
Loved the video! Yay for bunnies!
I was obsessed with photography too, my dream was to go to art school to learn pretty much everything art/creativity related. I’m pretty much self taught with everything, but you learn new stuff everyday!
Wow! Thank you so much for being vulnerable and sharing so much. I found it so cool and interesting. Loved what you shared.
I just feel like Emma does everything and she does everything well! How do you have the time? Makes me motivated ❤
omg your kandi is amazing!!!!! i was also obsessed but never made anything so intricate!! it’d be awesome if you made a tutorial in the future, maybe showing how to make some bookish kandi like for BIBIB or something? :)
So sorry to hear about your negative experience with your church. :( Any boundaries being crossed is never okay.. You are so loved and it breaks my heart when broken and imperfect people can push others away from the love of Christ because of their own imperfections and actions. We are so broken. In any case, I really loved watching this video, and I think you are so wonderful, Emma! Thank you for sharing!
I started and finished city of bones last night and absolutely loved it!!! I can't wait to read the rest of the series.
ahhh i'm so happy to hear it!!
you’re so beautifully soft spoken & eloquent! every video is asmr imo lmao❤️
I really enjoyed this video. You are so open and articulate, I couldn't stop watching.
I totally identify with having a sibling you never got to meet. My mom had a baby girl just over a year before I was born, but she ended up getting cancer at just a few months old and passed away before I came along. It would've been so cool to have a sister that close to me in age ❤
you've been through so many phases in your life already and i love it 😂 i love these personal videos
ahahaha thank you!!
Thanks for sharing these things Emma. It is really amazing - you should make more videos like this.
I'm so glad you made this video because now I feel like we've come to know you even better, even if it's just through the internet
I loved this video! Have you ever consider getting back into the cornet? I loved learning about all your creativity from art to music and other crafts. Thanks so much for sharing all of this with us!
ahhhh it is so interesting seeing how creative and talented you are in so many different aspects!
❤️❤️❤️ Love the look! The eyeshadow makes your eyes POP❤️❤️❤️
thank you
This was fun to learn more about you. You're one of my favorite booktubers!!
It's crazy how being in a different part of the USA changes how you grow up. I'm almost 24 and we didn't have band starting until 5th grade in my area but I didn't start playing flute until 6th grade. Also the Kandi thing wasn't anything I was aware of in my area. I'm sure people did it but I just learned about it after watching the video. Great video. :)
I'd love to see more personal videos on booktube sometimes, because it can give a way better impression of people's characters than just the casual ones. Now I feel like I have quite a (positively) different view of yourself as a person and a booklover. It's lovely to get to 'know' you better. :)
I was born with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). So I was in the NICU (Neonatal intensive care unit) for the early months of my life. During that time I could not be held or picked up by my parents unless one of the nurses prepped and then handed me to them. (And even then they had to scrub up and be in head to toe in germ-free garb). When I was 6 months old, I had to go back to NICU because I had contracted meningitis and then septicemia accompanied with seizures.
It was hard for me to accept these circumstances when I was younger, but now I am a happy, healthy almost 25-year-old woman. And unless I share my story or show you my scars, one would never guess that I have had this experience.
Ok but how on Earth did you play quidditch without flying broomsticks?? I’m just picturing people running around with sticks between their legs 😂
that's literally it - the entire game is played one handed and you must have a broom between your legs at all times XD NO JOKE
emmmabooks NO! That’s both amazing and hilarious wow
This was my favorite video so far!! You are such a wonderful and lovely person!
thank you so much!!
This video was so interesting to watch! I have to say, you're one of my favorite youtubers, definitely a favorite booktuber because you're just so honest and genuine in your videos and you keep making incredible content! 🙌😄 And aww I'm sorry about Richie 😩 that must've been terrible for your mom 😱💔😘❤
thank you so much
1. Your shirt is really really pretty.
2. It was really nice getting to know more personal things about you
heyy I play the cornet!!! I’ve been playing for about 15 years now and I love it so much and it’s been such a huge part of my life and it’s so cool to find out that you used to play too!
Going on Youth Group camps and trips are some of my best memories too! Though my experience ended well and even though I've moved away, a lot of those people are still super supportive :)
The fact that always comes to my mind with these types of things is that I’ve performed on Broadway! The summer between my freshman and sophomore years I was invited with my school choir to go to New York and perform at an autism benefit at the Gershwin Theatre with a bunch of other groups.
I have wanted a bunny for years! Once I graduate college and get my own place I will get one! I do watch bunny videos at night and cry sometimes....
also I’m in my college’s Quidditch club! I’m a beater! :)
I’ve also had complete blue, purple, and pink hair at different times. I love it and miss it but it is so much work!
I did photography for 3 years of high school! I love it and miss shooting in film so much! Maybe I can take a photo class later on it college :)
You’re so talented! Your photographies are amazing, your beads things are as well and I bet you were a cornet goddess.
What a great video! Thank you for sharing. 😊 I want to start a TH-cam channel - mostly about books this year. Also, I did kickboxing for a while and I want to get back into it. You make pole look like so much fun, I might try that soon!
Thanks so much for sharing - its interesting to hear about all these different sides to you that we never really knew about. One thing that always surprises people to hear (since I'm an avid reader now) is that I basically couldn't really read or write till I was about 9 years old. I'm severely dyslexic and just couldn't be bothered to try for the longest time, my parents did read to me most nights and one night the book they were reading left in a cliffhanger and I couldn't stand having to wait till the next evening to find out what happened so I just picked up the book and started to read (and haven't really stopped since). Also kind of random, but one of the girls in the last of the picture of your church-youth groups looks just like sarahsunbeemz.
wow that is really impressive, kudos to you for overcoming such a challenging situation!!!!
I feel you about your brother. I actually have another sister who was born 1 year before my sister, but unfortunately died right after she was born. We also celebrate her birthday every year
Omg I loved your black hair with the green underneath! It’s was so pretty, I’m going to dye my hair soon and I think that I might get it like that. I love you Emma ❤️❤️❤️
your eyeshadow is so cute Im obsessed!!!
So sorry about your brother. I hope he’s living with the angels ❤️💕
Thank you for sharing, loved learning more about you!!
As for something you don't know; I'm a counselor at a youth movement that combines children and teen with disabilities with other teens, and basically let the kids or teens with disablities feel welcomed and included, while educating about and normalizing disabilities to the other teens. ("disabilities" : physical, autism, intellectual disabilities etc...)
wow that is so awesome!!!!!!!
You’re so talented! Between the pole dancing, hooping, photography, video making, etc.
Also I’m digging your look in this video. You are gorgeous :)
I loved knowing more about you and your past, you are so amazing and I love you 💜💜
Videos like this one are a big part of why I can get confident enough to post some of my own more personal videos.
Hmmm something I haven't shared here on BookTube . . .
So something I did mention before is that while I was enlisted in the Navy I was in a serious depression and had to handle the ups and downs of that while keeping up with a high tempo work environment. What I don't think I shared about that though is that going through such a demanding experience is probably the most beneficial thing I could have done. It definitely helped me put a lot of things into perspective. During this timeframe, I lost my grandmother from my mother's side of the family and while most of the family was in the loop of information with her health and such beforehand I wasn't, mostly because I was wrapped up in my own things going on. So I learned the lesson that no matter what I'm going through other people are going through their own trials at the same time. As a result, I try to be as kind as possible when dealing with anyone because I'll never know exactly what they have to deal with.
I meant to write something happy and uplifting but I think this got to be a little middle ground as far as subject matter goes hahaha.
Either way, thanks for sharing this with us all and amazing job on the video, per the usual hahaha.
LOL 6:20 "my good friends is all I need" :):):) loved the vid!!
Yellow is REALLY your color I LOOOVEEE your eyeshadow!!
I love to dye my hair. I think I had pretty much every colour except for a bright yellow up until now. Purple, pink, blue, green, red, orange, grey, white and every „normal“ hair colour there is. I miss the purple. :) Your green/black hair looked really awesome!
I love your hair and makeup in this !!
Thanks so much for sharing these amazing tidbits of information. Aaah I'd love to see your music videos someday haha. (Although you'll probably never share them lmao). Also, your bead creations just look SO amazing, you should be super proud! Also bunnies, YAY! I had bunnies as a young teen as well. They were adorable and unfortunately were killed by a wild animal :( I never got any other ones (my parents didn't let me) so I've been pet-less since :/ Also, I am so sorry about baby brother. That is just super incredibly sad. I'm sure that you guys will definitely see one another again in heaven and have that brother/sister bond that you were meant to have.
I'm so sorry that you had a bad experience with your church :/ I think that sadly there are very many believers out there who fall into being unloving and that can definitely leave a bad and (like you said) resentful feeling towards organized churches. I myself am very glad that I never had any bad experiences (my church has so far been suuuuuper encouraging and supportive of my own mental battles and they are actually super open about a lot of things) but I can totally relate and understand people's skepticism. After all, Jesus Himself said that He doesn't want religion and rules and hypocrisy but simply people who have faith and love Him and one another. The "Church" was never meant to be organized religion in buildings with power and authority, but simply the entirety of people who have faith and love everyone. While it might not be my place to say this, I would highly encourage you to explore your faith away from people who make you feel unwelcome and unloved. That's not what faith should be about, and unfortunately a lot of people have taken the beautiful story of Jesus and what He did for us, and twisted it into something that shames people and allows people to be hypocritical. Just remember that this is not an accurate reflexion of who God has revealed Himself to be. He is Love and simply wants people to walk in love and kindness and humility and faith in His Son.
omg i used to play the trumpet! did you play the trumpet as well or just the cornet? also, i feel you, braces wrecked me. AND i played quidditch my first year in college, too! i was a beater and we were actually pretty good haha :) i transferred schools so i don't play anymore but i wish i did!
OMG! I love completely this video, how many interesting things I didn't know about you, and I just can think you are an awesome and very unique person. Thanks for this video, Emma. XOXOXO
I am loving your hair, makeup and outfit in this video!
Where did you get that top from?? I've been looking for one like it for ages.
Thank you for sharing! It's always awesome to see that people over the internet are people with strange quirky interests like us! Also I now have 2 more books added to my tbr! BTW I love your hair like that. So pretty (as always :D)!
thank you sweetie
The world would be a very dull place if we didn't!
That yellow eyeshadow tho! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ A QUEEN
So sorry to hear about your brother, that mustve been so tough on your mom! You've had so many successful creative pastimes over the years, other than booktubing, what is your current creative outlet ? Do you write? Thanks & great video!
I adore your nails. Like, honestly, I can't stop looking at them.
I totally get what you mean about falling out with a church and boundaries being crossed. I hate it that one person involved with my old churches youth group completely ruined that space for me and made it so I no longer felt safe in a place of worship.
I wouldn’t trade the memories I’ve made with my youth group for anything either. I met my boyfriend of 6 years there and most of my best friends. I’m glad you got to experience something similar. I wish it would have turned out better for you!
um im shook your photos are amazing!
Great video it’s so awesome that we know a little bit more about you I used to be so into doing those bracelets too and I love the space buns that’s my favorite hairstyle
I love you so much Emma lord, I always know I’ll enjoy your videos
thank you so much jenice :)
I love this video, it really feels like getting to know you😁
Something you don‘t know about me: I‘ve been playing the piano for about 11 years now (I‘m 17) and I want to be a piano teacher. I am also interested in Psychology, although I don‘t know a lot about it yet, I‘m hoping to learn more every day!
I do costume design. I actually designed the talent competition costume for Miss Oregon for this past Miss America competition and had an internship in my freshman year of college with an award winning costume designer that was actually searching for a student in an MBA theater program. Costume design is my first love!
I love this video and your hair and makeup are so cute!
ayyyy NYSSMA squad!!!! I did NYSSMA all throughout high school for singing, as I am actually a classically trained operatic soprano, which is kind of my go-to fun fact even though it sounds more impressive than it probably actually is!!
wow i didn't kno that, that's so amazing!!!!
Your makeup is perfect 👌😍
Loved getting to know you better!
thank you!!!!
i LOOOOVE these kind of videos!! what the heck, bead queen!!!
I love matching my makeup with my outfits too!
Cool hairstyle! And again as always love your makeup. And also thank you for posting this video. I was able to learn more about you which was great because you are my favourite booktuber. I am so sad i was late though. I always want to be early.
aw you are so sweet!! thank you for watching
i loved learning so much more about you!!
You should seriously make a makeup tutorial video because your makeup is always amazing
In love with your look in this video, especially the nails😍ps what song did you use for the background music? x
When you started talking about how you played the cornet & got evaluated I was immediately like NYSSMA OMG. I have fond memories of nyssma growing up & now i am a violin major in college :))))
Girl that eye shadow and sweater combo 😍😍😍
your eyes look amazing! love this eyeshadow and love learning more about you! :-))
