    I remember having that exact feeling when my parents left my apartment for the first time, I was like “wait, they drove off without me.” But I discovered so much about myself during the years I lived alone, and it was really fun, so I’m praying it is everything you want/need and more. Excited for you!!

    I love how real you are. Lots of influencers just show the highlights of their lives but I really appreciate you being so honest with how you felt about moving out and the sadness that can come with it but how much peace you have with doing it.

    Watching this brought back memories when I first moved out alone to college. It was hard! I felt all of those feelings, just here to say that it got easier. Feeling lonely away from family always hit every once in a while, but with lots of visits and calls it’s easier to bear. You got this!!

  • @p.nutsss
    @p.nutsss 2 ปีที่แล้ว +40

    I moved out alone to college this year too, and I have a huge family, just like you! I definitely miss the hustle and bustle, and it was pretty hard the first few weeks/months, but it gets better! Good luck to anyone who's moving out for college or from their parents home! YOU GOT THIS!

  • @caitlyn0816
    @caitlyn0816 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    the honest chat in your car actually really helped me with your words of wisdom "if it felt right then, then it's still right even with the nerves..." I've been looking for clarity with a job opportunity and I think god wanted me to hear that and I stumbled across your video. That was my sign so THANK YOU

  • @anadusao
    @anadusao 2 ปีที่แล้ว +22

    this video hits so hard. I spent a few months in spring 2022 abroad and this was such an amazing experience. I really was the happiest, didn’t miss home too much and got to live with a friend. And then I moved out at 19 for the first time in September to continue my studies. Now I live by myself and I have such a hard time adjusting. I wish it got better, I just came home from winter break with family and I’m just so sad. But also I’m trying to be grateful to have such a great relationship with my family and that I can miss them. My situation is very different from yours though, my parents live on another continent and none of my relatives live close to me. I really hope it gets better

  • @maddieisaconnecticutblonde
    @maddieisaconnecticutblonde 2 ปีที่แล้ว +27

    moving out for the first time is so exciting but i feel like no one talks about how sad it is that a specific part of your life is ending and you have to be able to mourn that but also be excited as the same time, it can get overwhelming😭

  • @lexiiesparzaa
    @lexiiesparzaa 2 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    only halfway through but i love the transparency in this video. im 20 starting to realize moving out can be any day now & these are the feelings i anticipate having. good to know i’m not alone in my questions & fears about leaving what i’ve grown up in. literally felt like i was having a real life convo with you during this video.

    I've moved out a week ago from my parents place and I'm on my own with my dog. I understand the weird feeling and not being around others is a little different but I like it. You made me feel a little more comfortable with my decision. Thank you ❤❤

  • @hopehelquist9116
    @hopehelquist9116 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I definitely needed the little talk in the car! Not about moving but about pursuing different things after college. It was the right answer a couple months ago so it’s the right answer now! Even though I’m super nervous!

  • @ileana2649
    @ileana2649 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I've really grown up by your side! I moved out this year for university, I moved to a whole other city 13 hours away (driving) and the first few weeks were the hardest, but it gets easier and you learn so much about yourself in the process. There was a moment there where I was like "oh my what did I get myself into" but now I could not imagine it any other way. You got this Marla!

    I feel as if I was meant to hear your testimony about moving out. I will be doing a 1-year internship in Italy next year and at first I was so excited and grateful God gave me this opportunity, but lately I've been feeling anxious about it. This made me realize that indeed if it felt right at first, there's no need to worry :)

    the two mirrored walls are honestly such a vibe! they don't have to be in front of each other, it would make the room bigger and also: your apartment seems so cute and comfortable and I hope you can make it your home, I know it's hard but it shows your effort and independence. Go Marla❤️

  • @MB-mc8qd

    I usually don’t leave comments but I will be the first sibling in my very close family to move out of state this year. I can relate to your feelings! It’s an exciting time but I wasn’t expecting it to be so bittersweet. Thank you for sharing! 💌

    Oh girl, I can so relate to this! I just moved out for the first time a month ago - and missed my family soooo much the first week. It’s such a big change, and I love the honesty in what you shared in your experience, so refreshing and relatable 🧡

  • @zoes5920
    @zoes5920 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Those first few days I moved out I also felt that too. And I had wanted to move out for months before I did. It didn’t mean I wasn’t grateful for the opportunity but I still felt some dissonance within myself. I had to just keep reminding myself that it was a new journey in life to be excited for.

    i'm moving out as well for university next month and all of the nerves and self-doubt is starting to creep in too. it's funny though since my whole life i've wanted to move out and become independent living my own life but the closer the move gets the more i cling onto the safety and comfort of my family. i completely get how you feel marla so you're not alone ❤

    Thank you for the real talk and honesty. I started institute this semester. I work full time and am earning my degree online. I really didn’t want to add another component to my life. I’m such a big home body and an introvert. Being around people my age has been so not normal since I “graduated” high school back in 2020. Thank you for your example of real emotions like not wanting to move out and not knowing how everything works at first. And that god can provide a way. I already see multiple reasons why I need to be in that class. And I know he will continue to show me. Your example of living the gospel has inspired me multiple times. Thank you

    @corrinecrazycow 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I know how you feel! Growing up there were 7 family members living under one roof and it was always loud and so much energy, always people coming over and such. My grandpa was a musician so he was always practicing and making noise hah. Now I live with one roommate in an apartment and it’s quiet, but peaceful. I do miss the bustle of my childhood home though very much, something that feels so weird to get used to.

You’re gonna have the time of your life!

    It's funny (not literally lol) I came with the intent to watch a prayer, or church related, God related Videos. And I saw yours on my feed and thought, oo let me watch this one first. The fact that your talking about your experience about talking to god, and your view is just what I needed. I didn't even know this was the message I was going to get. Like you mentioned god communicated to you in different ways. Or gives you signs and for me your one. Your the sign and the person I needed to hear rn at this moment before clicking on a sermon. Thank you! Thank you. Love the video too!
