I never comment on TH-cam videos but this is by far the best college reaction video I've seen, I absolutely loved how real this was and it made me feel so much better about the coming months. Not to mention, your moms speech was amazing and I will definitely be coming back to listen to it when I get rejections. (Also USC is my top choice so seeing you get accepted made me so happy, congratulations on everything) :)
thank you so much, that means the world to me!! wishing you the best of luck xx
Your mom’s response made me cry.
she's the best 🥺
You are also the best
I felt I could go to war against 500 people after listening to your mom, I could listen to her lecture all day long. She is absolutely right.
I never comment on YT videos but I had to comment after listening to your beautiful mother give you some amazing advice. Your heart was hurting and don't believe hers wasn't either. It is not easy for a parent to see their child cry or hurt. She was crushed for you. But she gave you the truth. Treasure her. You will be great wherever you decide. With a family like that behind, you can't lose.
You're exactly right when you say my heart was hurting-I got a little teary-eyed reading your comment, it put me in my mother's shoes. After I told her about my rejection, I thought she was more or less unaffected, but you made me realize that she must have felt my pain as well. Thank you so much, it truly means a lot ❤️
I've watched so many of these vids and this one is by far my favorite. You were super raw and encouraging throughout the entire process. Congrats on your amazing acceptances! Also, your mom's speech was so wholesome and almost made me cry. Hoping for the best for you and your fam, stay safe (also I never comment on TH-cam vids but felt the need to!!)
that means so much to me, thank you ❤️❤️
You’re so naturally pretty
When I applied to college, I didn’t get into any Ivy reaches and went to my much lower ranked safety school. I was so devastated and thought it would really hold me back. Instead, I got great grades, did a lot of activities and research, made a lot of great friends, and now I’m a couple months away from graduating from a Top 20 medical school. A lot of my classmates are working at companies like Google and Microsoft and doing very well. Where you go to college does not necessarily define your life. I hope you had a fantastic 1st semester at your college and are making the best of your time and college to set you up for success later in life. Channel the frustration of your failures into working towards success and the results WILL come.
that's amazing, I totally agree with everything you said & I am so happy with where I am now! thank you for sharing, wishing you the absolute best ❤️
momma knows best!!! what’s for you is for you, & what’s not isn’t, & that’s okay.
Your mom was incredible! “If you don’t have this frustration first, you won’t have the motivation to do even better.” Congratulations on your hard work and I hope you’re enjoying school!
the fact that usc and uc berkeley were admittance warmups-
completely agree - this entire process has so much subjectivity and randomness built into it that there are always surprises (both good and bad!) throughout. If things don't work out for your undergrad years, there's nothing wrong with that! you may very well find yourself in exactly the job / career / field you want to be after college (or even find yourself at your dream school for grad school!!)
Your mom’s reaction to your Columbia rejection was so sweet. You’re so lucky to have her!
Your mother's speech is making me cry. She's wonderful. You're wonderful.
Your Mom rocks! Everything she said is absolutely right, demonstrating that Chinese Moms know best, even if we hate to admit it. My daughters are waiting for their results now and I hope that I can be half as wise and supportive as your mother was in the coming weeks.
Your mom needs to be making Cameos. I could use a pep talk / reality check from her.
I hope you watch this video a year from now while you’re thriving wherever you decide to attend school.
your mom's speech was amazing
as someone who's just finished applying to schools and anxiously awaiting decisions, your mom's words were so inspiring!! thanks for keeping it real :) i appreciated a different type of video than the ones circling youtube with all acceptances to ivies and whatnot
congrats on getting in to so many great schools!!
Watching this as I await my first ED results! LOVED THE REACTIONS
How did it go?
This is the most low key, but honest college reaction video I’ve watched. Great advice. Your Mom is the best.
I’be been obsessed with these videos, and every-time I watch them (I’m a freshman) I feel somewhat worried of failure even though I have like 3 years but this video.girlll this video. Thank you, sis my Mindset is a little less shitty.🥰❤️
I'm so glad this helped! Try not to worry about it, it's a daunting process but I know you will do amazing ❤️
aw 🥺 this was so raw and wholesome
I'm crying. I can tell where you got your beautiful positive mindset from 🥺 your mom is so supportive, kind, and wise
Your mom's response is the best thing on this planet. She is so SPOT ON! You're incredibly lucky to be receiving that type of wisdom from your mom. I freaking love her and I don't even know her! haha Congrats on your acceptances!!
i feel like the asian moms that are genuine and not pushy are the best and their children succeed the most
i love that this is so real sometimes whenever i watch these videos i'm scared i'll feel so bad about myself cuz they're perfect and only show the good things but you show what's it's like to be a REAL human so thank you!!!! also u got into some rlly good schools wow
i'm so happy to hear that, it means a lot :) thank you ❤️
Honestly I’m so proud of you, for getting into those schools and for being so real about the whole process. I know it’s hard but your positivity speaks volumes and I know wherever you go you will absolutely thrive. I couldn’t happier for you and can’t wait to see where you decide on going!!!❤️❤️❤️
thank you so much kat 🥺♥️
Of all the videos I have watched, yours was truly the greatest. You have such a great mentality and I wish you all the best. I just went through this same process, so many tears, but this video really made me realize the bigger picture. Thank you!
How can someone be so smart and so pretty. Bless this girl I hope she goes very far in her life she seems like a stellar person.
this is hands down the best reaction video i’ve ever seen. You were honest and gave good advice. And the video of your mother was so heartwarming.
thank you so much!! 💘
Awww don’t cry also ur mom is so sweet I’m so proud I understood everything
MY MOM GAVE ME THE SAME EXACT TALK WHEN I GOT REJECTED FROM USC HAHA. Literally the whole “人生道路有很多条” thing haha. I'm headed to NYU this fall so I guess she was right. Good luck girl!! Go live it up in Cali:)
I never comment on these videos but I love how yours was so authentic and down to Earth ❤️ Life isn’t fair and things don’t always go your way, but listening to your mom’s response made me cry because I’m so happy that both of you embrace life with positivity. You have such an amazing personality and I know that you’ll be successful wherever you go! Congrats on your acceptances and stay safe :)
aw thank you so much 🥺❤️
Making a first time comment on TH-cam here too. I absolutely love your mom and love that you took in what she was saying despite your disappointment. With your attitude, work ethic and strong support system, I imagine whatever road you're on it will indeed lead to Rome. Starting college in isolation must have been rough. I applaud you and your peers for navigating a truly horrendous time. My daughter will be applying to college in a few years. I may quote your mom when the time comes, because I do believe these bumps in the roads and course corrections make for the most rewarding and fulfilling journeys.
Your mom is a sweetheart and I’m very proud of you! Congratulations!!🤩
Your mom has such an amazing response. I also speak mandarin and that hit home for me because my mom literally told me the same thing. I’m sorry that things didn’t work out perfectly, but congrats on committing to USC!
i teared up at your mom’s part, my heart omg 🥺🥺🥺
I loved your moms reaction so much! You and her are both amazing💗thanks for sharing your journey :)
Congratulations on all the amazing acceptances🥳🥳🥳🥳!!!! Also, your mother is sooo wise; she preached an amazing message🙏.
What your mum said literally had me crying, damn Chinese language is so wise and sobering
this video is so real and I felt like I was on this rollercoaster with you, your amazing🥰
Protect her mom at all costs. She is golden.
your mini pep talks along the way rlly helped and you seemed very mature about everything. i know in a year from now when im here i'll experience the same stress but your motto of "when one door closes, another can open" is a beautiful testimony to this process :) congrats to all your acceptances!
also your mom is amazing ( i just watched the end lol) she cared for your safety and wanted what was best for you, atypical of most asian moms.
thank you so much ❤️ good luck on your applications! xx
Your mother is such a gem, bless her 🙏💎❤️
SO PROUD OF YOU! 🖤
wow i love how real this video was thank you for taking us along on your journey it really helps me as a sophomore in high school
aw i loved ur reaction!! i committed to usc as well!! i’m super excited to see you there!! fight on❤️💛
✌🏼❤️💛
your mom’s speech literally made me cry
holy crap your mom is an amazingly strong woman
you are so lucky.
happy womens day
I really the way you processed all the decisions and how you reflected on that. Thank you for sharing such an authentic video and for being so real. Congrats on your successes!
thank you!! 🥰
i don't know you and you don't know me but i am so proud of you! Thank you for letting yourself be candid on camera and let us in on the realistic side to college acceptance. i am applying to colleges next year and BEST BELIEVE i am coming back to this video to try and adopt your mindset.
thank you so much! best of luck ❤️❤️
You did great! I am also Chinese, and your mom's words really inspire me. Love her!
I needed your mom's speech🤧, congrats on your acceptances🎉🎉. Loved this video❤
thank you, I'm so happy it helped
saving this video as reference as I will be applying this year .. best advice ive ever heard
You have a valuable mother in your hands! I love to see that. Congrats on the schools you got accepted to.
I freaking love your moms speech at the end❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ best of luck to you and your future❤️❤️❤️
thank you so much I'm glad it resonated with you! xx
Thank you so much for that last segment with your mom, it was so moving 😢. I think we need parents like that to console and support their children with that much wisdom. Other times I just hear about tiger moms who base their child’s success on the school their kid attends :( Great video!!
Man your mom had me about to cry. Very wise woman.
I loved your mom's advice and pep talk ♥️♥️♥️
Yesssss. Your mom gave great advice. Congratulations on getting into those schools. I also have two daughters that got accepted into colleges for the fall.
ok but I love your mom, & congratulations on all your schools you really did that!!!
Like the thousands of people who have seen this video, I was so inspired by everything you AND your mother said :,) I literally don't comment on youtube videos, but I just wanted to let you know that I am so thankful for you allowing me to be a part of your journey, and that I am so excited to start on my own in less than a month ;-; ...I think. LOL. All jokes aside, thank you!!!!!!! I hope you are having the most incredible day/month/year/life :D
that's so sweet thank you, means a lot that you resonated with the video :) best of luck!!
ahhhh, just saw your post on insta ab u committing to usc & sosososo happy for u, see u in the fall !!! ❤️💛
I've watched so many of these college decisions videos I think yours is the best one❤❤
thank you so much 🥺❤️
Your mother's advice is amazing.
So proud of you and you will do well and be successful wherever you go! I didn’t know your mom can talk
so much!
thank you so much! yeah she can be like that when she wants to hahaha 😌
Congrats on NYU! I absolutely love nyu!
Omg loved what your mom had to say... Thanks so much for sharing that! Got to practice my Chinese listening skills too :)
Also the speech she gave at the end was amazing
Best saying: "all roads lead to Rome." She is very proud of you! Your mom is a gem!
when umiami is ur safety and that’s like my dream school lmao
ur moms goated, what a supporting chinese mom
totally unrelated note but you have such features like your cheekbones are STUNNING
you're so sweet, thank you!! 🥰
I’m glad u show u going to your mom for support bc (because) that’s what I’m doing mines
you are so freaking pretty and inspiring!!!
you're too sweet, thank you ❤️
“All roads lead to Rome” is also a French proverb😊
I’m so happy you uploaded your video, I find it more relatable, and you got in to amazing schools with very low acceptance rate✨✨🍾🍾
Wow, your mom is everything!
At least you got into college. That’s the good thing. Like you said, you gave all your effort into this and you still got pretty far. 5 schools is pretty good
thank you :) a positive perspective is everything!
Christina Liu you’ll do amazing at wherever you attend. Good luck!
wow, you are so ridiculously beautiful!!! congrats on all your acceptances
you're so sweet thank you so much!!
Christina Liu of course! :-)
Heed my words.. I’m an Emory Grad, you are going to be a superstar. I like watching these acceptance videos, seeing the happiness. Your honestly is a rare and bankable asset ( success). DON’T EVER EVER change that honesty, you are going to be a superstar... think i’m crazy? WATCH..
thank you so so much ❤️❤️
Love your Mom’s advice!
My Fav part of your video is your mom’s pep talk!! She is so awesome. (I speak mandarin too) 🤗🧡
Amazing video Christina 👏
Your MOM is 100% LEGIT
Congrats! you got into amazing schools. I’d love to see a stats and ec videos as well!!
coming soon!! 😇
Just saw this and loved it.. especially your Mom at the end…. I love her… “Accept Reality” you should sell T-shirt of that with both English and Chinese words…👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏❤
omg i can totally see my mom giving me that exact same speech/lecture in like a couple of months.
Wow that lil red talk of yours changed me. Thx I study a lot now because of that
Love u
That was a great message! Wish you the best!
As much as I prepare, I'm still going to cry at the end
I remember watching this video a few ago and heating your mom's wise advice. I just came back to see how you are going.
I love your mom omgggg
You're really pretty, hope your happy
I just love your mom ❤❤❤
Your mom is a gem
Your mom is awesome!!!
You’re GORGEOUS....but congrats!

Your mom should become a motivational speaker
You have such a nice smile!
I’m so proud! Wow! I’m also from NY! I also did a video but yours is absolutely amazing! You’re so beautiful!
aw thank you so much, I saw your video! 54 colleges is insaneee, congrats to you as well :)
Oh my gosh this is insane!! I checked my Columbia decision at my school concert too. I looked right before I got in stage though and it was a baaad idea haha
wow I honestly think we had such similar experiences! before ivy day, I had only been accepted to one of my matches and my safeties. also waitlisted from emory :( but then ivy day was happy
dang we also have the same mom. I got pretty much the exact same speech after being rejected from columbia. my mom legit said the “all roads lead to rome” thing
hahaha that's crazy!!
