better things coming queen !!!!! not worth your stress ♥️♥️♥️
Love u so much girl ❤️❤️
ignore the haters! As a college student myself, seeing people act like this giving high school behavior
It’s crazy how much the high school behavior doesn’t go away in college
Right. Like grow up
middle school even
They are still going to be like that…even as grown adults 🤦🏾♂️
Thats what happens when you go to party led state schools
freshman year being difficult is a topic that so overlooked
YES. i’ve never felt so out of place. i never knew how hard it would be to make friends and actually stay friends instead of talking to them during welcome week only and never again
not feeling like yourself in a new environment was the worst thing! when i was a freshman people would post a ton on social media of them "having fun" and i always wondered why is my experience so different... despite my internal struggles i learned so much about myself. freshman year is the year to REALLY put yourself out there but it gets better i promise!!
people are so jealous of you and your accomplishments its so sad. they hate you cause they ain't you tamara
I'm blushing ❤ sm love to you!!
Right. People are crazy
Ikr! Those types of people are usually insecure with themselves
yaaaas slay queen?
Miami is one of a kind. I went away for college, and THANKFULLY had an amazing experience. But I learned how much of a treasure Miami is.
Yesss love that
a girl from my high school class also went to IU and transferred back to a state school, don’t feel guilty for leaving, i’m glad you realized it and doing what’s best for you. trying to stay and make it work will not be worth it. i also transferred home and i was upset and lost a lot of friends from doing it at school, but now i look back and everything has happened for a reason and i can tell it was meant to happen. now i am at the school i didn’t get into out of high school and always dreamed of originally going to. obviously try to have some fun for the rest of the semester while you can but i just started watching your videos and i’m so happy you’re making a happy change! it’s so exciting ❤️
Hearing this is so nice ❤ I’m glad you did what’s right for you and I’m looking forward for what’s to come too!
IU is incredible. So is Bloomington
@@CancelHappinessagree! Love the town, grew up there. Sorry about the judgement. I did leave and lived all over the world. I would still live there, but part-time only.
im so sorry that you are/had to go through this, im also a college freshman, attended school out of state, and also had a terrible and experience. I moved back over winter break and have been at community college for this past semester and it’s the best decision i have made !! can’t wait to see what this new chapter brings for you !!!
Girl I can totally relate to the last part and applying to schools once again, (I graduated in 2022 also) and just didn’t find the right university for for me, so I’m here applying again and I would have never imagined going through that process again! Just want to send you all the good vibes and love for the rest of your year and your future endeavors💘
I figured this was the video coming out next! I actually transferred to IU from another school. And I wouldn’t be having a good time if my fiancé wasn’t here. We literally just walk our dog and people watch 24/7 in this crazy college town lol. The Greek life stigma here is WILD to me and honestly entertaining. I’m also NOT a party gal and it’s all ppl do here. If it’s ur crowd, it works. But if partying isn’t ur thing, I totally see why u want to try something new. (Plus all ur other crazy and unfortunate circumstances). I’ve loved ur videos and can’t wait to see more wherever you go! Keep ur head up!
I love this and think that's awesome what you guys do hehe ❤ but thank you sooo much!
as a girl from a place like miami (brasil) that ended up in a school in the midwest - everything you're saying is SO valid and I can def relate to and understand. the midwest and the big college experience are not the vibe for everyone, and in a year's time, you're going to be so happy with your decision!!! you're way cooler than state school greek life anyways :)
Thank u soooo much ❤ means alot
This is such a good way showing the difference sides of college do what’s best for you it will work out 💕
girl I get this 100%. I’m transferring back home to Miami and I couldn’t be happier. Do what makes you happy, don’t let anyone else change that ❤
thank u ❤sm
ugh im so sorry. I did this at the end of the fall semester (under different circumstances) but still, I know how stressful and frustrating it can be being far from home and other issues. you got this, keep your head up beautiful!
Thank you sm for posting this. I’m a college freshman too and I’ve really been considering transferring and I’m glad there’s someone I can relate to🤍
Aw I’m so glad I could help❤
I am so sorry you had such a horrible experience. I went to high school in Bloomington but chose not to go to IU. I went to college in Nashville and so happy I did looking back on it. You are way too mature and sweet for those houses and those people. The people harassing you are either jealous of your success or just bored…or both. Just keep doing your thing. Your attitude, morals and values will get you so much further than any of them. Just stay true to yourself and ignore hateful people. They are the ones with the problem.
This means the world to here, I appreciate it so much ❤ Grateful for mature people like you!
i am so proud of you for making such a hard decision🤍🤍 thank you for sharing!!
“Things can get better somewhere else” YES!
Aw Tamara. I was in EXACTLY your place last year. I came in freshman year so excited for Kelley and for IU and in return it all ended not in my favor. I came home and attended a college nearby where I am now going to transfer as a junior this fall somewhere thats a lot more relaxed & much less prestigious Indiana (Colorado State hopefully). Kelley was SO rough. I understand trying genuinely SO hard on a test and it always being unattainable.
Yessss felt that with the intensity of the classes too! But i'm glad you're happy with where you are now :)
@@TamaraAvinami I also ended up staying home for a year, doing online community college, and traveled to Israel, Turkey, Italy, and Spain! A learning experience that college could never give you! Enjoy your last couple months at Indiana as they, for me, were really bittersweet. And you're allowed to be upset & frustrated because you were so excited for it. It is truly unfortunate how many people that have been derailed off their course by Indiana.
I have never seen any of your videos before but I am currently a freshman at IU this year and plan to transfer after this year. Everything you said about really hoping that everything would work out and then being the opposite, and thinking it was exactly what you wanted in HS senior year is exactly how I feel too. I can’t say I can relate too much to the ostracism you have sadly had to deal with, but I can only imagine how difficult that must have been.
Just wanted to say that this video and everything you said means a lot to me.
You’re not the only one that feels drained, if it isn’t the professors being weird, it’s the students. It’s good that you’re happier getting out of that
I'm so proud of you
Damn I’m sorry you had to experience that!!!! Great things are coming your way Tamara💕
Thank you so much for posting this. I’ve had a really difficult time my freshman year as well and having a hard time with my own decision to transfer ❤ this made me feel so much better and less alone
very similar situation rn for me at a different college & also not in a sorority! transferring will be life-changing for us
I'm a transfer as well and just found this video after watching a bunch of your content- I can't even imagine how difficult it would be to feel like you're on a public stage being booed all the time while just trying to get through college. Proud of you for coming to this decision and I'm sure you will settle in wherever u end up!!
Keep your head up Tamara!! We all support and love you so much, do what’s best for you always 🤍
Thank you always ❤
i have also been having a tough time in my first year at uni and i cant explain how much this video meant to me. Better things are coming, i wish you all the best. ❤️
Awww I'm so sorry to hear that but I really do wish you the best and am wishing the best for you too ❤
All of this is so disheartening and I am so sorry that this is what your are experiencing cause no one deserves to be treated like this. Like you said, a degree from a "top" school is not worth putting your mental health on the line. As a college student who grew up in NY and is now in aschool that is kinda closed minded I get where you are coming from (to a certain extent ofc). Going back to florida/miami sounds so great :) I have been watching your videos since you were in 10th grade and have continued to love your content! Stay strong queen you got this!!!!!!!
aw bby im so sorry i can tell this has been a rly stressful experience, im so glad ur changing ur situation for the better but it sucks that you have to. the fact that ppl have shit on you for the friends you've made because of popularity rly blows my mind, i can't believe that still a thing at a large university like iu. i literally made my college decision yesterday and at one point iu was my top school but yesterday i decided to go somewhere else, im gonna think it was meant to be. i hope ur last two months are a lot better, we all support you💗💗
as a college student at cornell who didn’t rush i experienced something really similar. clearly the kind of people who are ostracizing you have nothing better to do. keep your head up and do your thing because you are way better off!! sending you love ❤
Wait, is Cornell like this??
@@maryb.5668 yes
@@maryb.5668 YES!
@James Conoway greek life is a huge part of the social scene, but i wouldn’t say u need it to make friends! join clubs and def be outgoing :)
I love you! i am so glad you are doing something to improve you. I am obsessed with your TH-cam videos :) keep doing what you are doing 💕💕
so proud of you for doing what’s best for YOU. as someone who’s going to school in florida, you’re making the right choice !! sending love🫶🏻🫶🏻
this is genuine so sad, im so so sorry this all happened to you. I truly hope youre in a better place now, you deserve that more than anybody. sending you so so much love as always !!! better things are coming your way I can just feel it. I love u forever tamara, you genuinely don't know how much of a positive impact you made on my life. so grateful for you always :,)
i'm a new fan of you and I go to IU and I totally get this. Greek life is crazy stupid here and I've seen it effect so many people I've met along the way so badly, its def dumb at times for sure. but keep your head up love, great great things are coming !!! im excited to see where you go next :)
girl i definitely feel you on this decision. i was at IU for a year and a half and it was not for me, and it was a hard decision to make to move back home. i ended up doing it for my own good. i wish you the best with whatever you decide to do from here on out :)
Thank u so much❤
i’m so glad you made this decision
Thank you for sharing! better things are coming for you girl
i know it’s definitely scary but like you said, things can get better elsewhere and that is def what is best for you right now. i’m so sorry for what these immature, jealous, people have put you through! they are seriously not worth your time and the new chapter that is coming will be so amazing, i can guarantee it!! everything happens for a reason and even though this situation has been tough for you, the following journey that you will go on now is going to be so enlightening. you got this tamara
I’m so sorry❤️❤️ but also so excited for you that better things are coming!!
You handle situations so well, me personally… lol. We’re all here rooting for u girl! 💌💌
Hahaha thank u sm ❤
this was all redirection for something better!! I hope you know you're such a gem and you deserve the very best. Super happy you didn't settle and chose right by not staying at an environment that didn't deserve you. On the bright side, I'm happy you're back home. Oh how much I've missed the Miami vlogs! un abrazo Reina!
we're all so proud of u tamara for how much u've overcame throughout ur freshman year of college. im still in highschool so i cant really relate but i hope ur doing better and find ur purpose in another area!
Thanks so much!!!
people are so jealous and cruel, it's like you can never win when they're trying to tear your successes down. i feel a similar way with not liking the school i'm at : i'm at a good school but hate the environment and i 100% agree that getting a degree from a good college isn't worth sacrificing your happiness! i'm so happy 4 you that you decided to take this step and i wish u the best on your journey!❤
Hi Tamara! Your videos have been my comfort videos throughout college. You handled this situation with such grace and maturity and I admire you a lot for that because it definitely did not sound easy. I am excited to see you thrive wherever you end up and watch your college journey continue. You gave IU your best and that's all anyone could ask for. Keep your head up and a smile on your face!!
My heart is so full ❤ thank you for the support and for your kind words
Omg Tamara! First better things are coming!! But this video could have not come at a better time. Ive been planning on transferring due to the social aspect, drama, and just the overall education aspect of my college. Idk this video has helped me to solidify my decision of transferring. Best of luck to you and future transferring!!
Aww thank you, best of luck to u too❤
I’m so sorry to hear about your experience. I don’t think there are enough channels that talk about the toxic side of state schools like greek life drama/just college generally bringing out the absolute worst in people. From being in college long enough I think it’s just a given that when you’re in this weird transitional space between childhood and adulthood people either don’t know how to act or end up learning real fast. It took me two years to figure out that the expectations I had as a senior in HS simply did not fit the person I was and that I needed to lose the toxic bs, drama, habits, isolate myself and just do me in order to be happy. You should be proud of yourself for making such a major change!!! I wish you so much luck and love!
hey girl! Im a freshman at IU, too. Most of my first semester (and beginning of this second) was me planning to transfer back home. I ultimately decided not to. Although are plans are coming to fruition differently, just know I totally understand what you're going through and how you feel! Much
Thank you so much❤ glad ur happy!
No one should have to go through this, no matter the following or not. I’m so proud of you for sticking it out for as long as you could and making a decision that fits you best. I wish you the best in whatever you choose next!!
I was at a lost at some point with being at the right school and I’ve transferred before. You are not alone feeling the way you do! We all support any decision you make🫶🏽 we love you
Also people who are being so mean to you have high school behavior. I’m truly sorry! Seeing you cry makes me so sad I wish I could hug you
keep your head up!!! all those people are just mad about your success! I'm really happy for you that you are now transferring. hugs from FL
Sooo sweet ❤ much love to you!
hope you find everything you are looking for!!
hey babe! i’m so sorry that you had to go through all of that! I know you probably already have your mind made up on where you want to transfer to but i would highly suggest looking into uva! we have a great business school here and from watching you i feel like you would fit in so well! i’m a second year and my experience has been nothing but amazing! i understand not everyone’s experience may be the same but i would highly suggest looking into this school! if you have any other questions just reach out! best wishes:))
i'am sorry you had to experience this ! but good luck to your future endeavors
ur mental health is important !! happy you took the right decision for you ❤
This is crazy. I’ve seen SO MANY other videos from other vloggers at parties where you can see underage drinking. Know that you’re a good person and this experience will just make you stronger.
Thank you SOOO much!
do what makes you happy girly. here to support you always n forever !!! 🤍
THANK U ❤
I hope you’re okay girl ❤️ your “friends” there definitely suck too because why would they go in knowing your by yourself and also stayyy without u there knowing they won’t let u in its so sad! I hope you’re okay what’s meant for u will be!!
exactly….
I am so sorry that u have that experience, amazing things comingggg love u so much
I recently transferred colleges because of the same reason you explained at the beginning of people being closed minded. I’m proud of you doing what right for yourself. You deserve the best!
I feel this so much as a track athlete at the university I am running at and I am entering the transfer portal. Everything I wanted went the opposite as well and it is draining and I keep praying to God.
happy for you!! do whats best for you!
Keep your head up, Tamara! You got this! I love your videos, by the way.
So sorry you went through this. I went to IU and graduated in 2018. I had an extremely hard time acclimating from the beginning. Liked to go parties but also not the only thing I wanted to do. I went to high school in Tampa but I am from Chicago and promise this is not a general midwest thing (the judgementalness) but also agree on your comments about the crowd in Bloomington. I almost transferred sophomore year due to a variety of reasons such as major depression and anxiety, as well as just not being happy, but I got into a non housed sorority and I hate to be like “thats why I didn’t transfer” but I had 3 friends at IU and that was it. I already had acceptance to another school and everything so I was very close. Definately relate to your comments about greek life at IU because we were a “bottom tier” house and were looked down upon but I didn’t care because I found my place. I am so sorry you had this experience but proud of you for standing your ground and leaving to do what’s best for you. Best of luck on the rest of your college career, you will be successful no matter what!!!
Aw this means a lot to hear and I'm sorry you went through what you did too! Hope you are doing well now and thank you for ur kind words❤
@@TamaraAvinami Thank you!! I am doing so much better, post college life is so much better, I promise. I enjoyed college but don’t miss it. The best of your life is still ahead!🤍
Girl you are going to THRIVE no matter where you end up. I decided to transfer back to a school close to my home and it was the best decision I could’ve made. Your grades will be better, you’ll get your personality back, and you’ll be so relieved when you finally decide on where you want to go 😌😌😌 So excited for u - good luck!! 💝
Awww, so exciting to hear! Thank u so much ❤
Girl you deserve so much better. You are so real and raw and undeniably you! I have always been so inspired by you and no one should ever make you feel that way. It’s so horrible how these people in small college towns are so small minded and clearly have no sense of real life or the world around them outside of their college life. 💝💝💝
That means so much to me ❤ thank you
Bloomington is an incredible city, with incredible people, and IU is a great school.
@@CancelHappiness so happy you feel that way, but everyone is entitled to their own options through their own experiences
@@TamaraAvinami I've lived in Indiana all my life, kid. Well other than a couple years where I lived in NYC and San Diego. And if you think Bloomington, of all places, is full of "close minded people" you just have no idea at all lol. IU is a fantastic school abd Bloomington is a great town and I know people who would kill for the opportunities you so casually throw away.
@@CancelHappiness dude it’s not that deep lol it’s 1 person transferring schools 😀
this is the exact same reason i left michigan state after my freshman year. i’m now a sophomore, living at home doing cc and i’m transferring in the fall. I’m working my ass off, have a boyfriend and working on bettering myself. proud of u
Yes girl definitely do what is best for you- this should be the best 4 years of your life, and with all the bad experiences you’ve had there, it’s enough to back up your reasoning for making the switch. Plus I completely agree even when I was in hs I found it embarrassing finding out that people in college still think they have a “ranking” and I remember thinking like y’all are 18+… which means you’re adults… yet you still think like this? It’s actually mind blowing. But good luck to you and I hope that whatever school you end up at makes up for your first year!!❤
damn. I’m going to be a junior at IU this year and you popped up on my feed a year ago. I hope you know I really liked your content
i usually don’t comment on videos but i’m so proud of you🫶🏾wishing you the best of luck Tamara!!!
Tamara you are truly amazing. I support you all the way from France and i’m so proud of you for standing up for yourself and doing what’s best for you. You are so inspiring ! So many good things are coming up to you.. Stay positive and true to yourself. We’ll always support you
Thanks for opening up with us ❤ we’ll always support u and I’m sure you’ll have a great experience in a florida uni
❤thank you x1000
the best is yet to come ❤️ excited for your future
I'm from San Diego, and went to school in Washington. I absolutely HATED it, going from sd to Washington was a bigggg change, it was a tiny college town where everyone only partied. I transferred to community college and I could not be happier. seriously best decision of my life!!!!!! You won't regret it
what school, if you don’t mind me asking?
@@sophiefischel382 sorry for the late response, but Washington state in pullman.
@@morganlusk8778 Did you ever regret leaving? I’m currently a student there and the only thing holding me back from transferring rn is the idea of me missing it later on lol
Hi sorry for responding late, but absolutely not! I seriously cannot express how happy I am that I transferred lol. I didn't have any good friendships there though, so it wasn't hard for me to leave. I would say just trust your gut, good luck!
I lived in California my whole life and I went to college on the East Coast. I hated my school and I felt so guilty for wanting to go back to California. I transferred to a school in San Diego after a year on the East Coast and I'm SO HAPPY I did. Everything happens for a reason. Don't feel guilty for wanting to go back. I promise things will get so much better.
Any chance you would give a clue as to the school back east? I am from San Diego and looking at IU and two school back east. Thanks
this is how i feel except i’m a junior at florida state! college is hard and an experience and definitely teaches you a lot. a lot i thought would go great also went south. i did want to transfer but i guess i was always scared and now it’s def too late to transfer but i’m sticking it out but also i will say like at least being in florida i can drive home to miami and i’ve been going home once a month since i moved to college because it’s so culture shock for me! anywhere you go you will do great! good luck
hey tamara , i have been watching u like since idek and i have always felt like u were someone that i could really relate to and inspire me, i go to UCF now and i moved from nc and it has been the hardest thing but watching u and going thru similar things (being on campus first semester to living at my new home) has given me so much hope and i feel for you so much you are the strongest grl ik and i know everything happens for a reason 🥰🥰
This is so sweet and I am so glad I was able to help/inspire you in any way ❤ wishing you the best!
better things are coming, sending love and positivity 💐💕
Kudos to you! Happy that you know what’s best for you and that you recognize a toxic situation and not try and make it work and not internalize to the point where you think it’s your fault. You know it’s not. Going forward, look forward to your future because it’s obviously going to be very bright!
Hey girl, I transferred home from IU Bloomington after first semester! I hated so many of the hateful/privileged kids at IU and I had to get out bc they gave me major ick. I completelyyyyyy agree with how u related their sororities/frats as high school all over again, in a not good way, and I didn’t even rush. It’s just so many kids that had their parents wipe their ass until their 18th bday and I couldn’t relate and that’s okay🌟
To explain the student body: my roommate and I (who came from the same town and with good morals) kept a running count of how many times someone couldn’t even hold the door open for us when walking in after them
you handled everything so well, I aspire to be you at this point , but it’s okay because in the future you’ll have a career and you have all these supportive fans and you’ll love your life and live it to the fullest, while these “frats” probably will stay in their hometown and get a local job . Stay strong !! this was definitely the universe trying to tell you something!
I’m so sorry this happened to you Tamara, some people need to grow up and think about their actions. Supporting you whatever you decide to do next ❤❤ x
I am so sorry this is happening to you Tamara! As an influencer myself It can be difficult and to think people treat people because they are doing great things is insane. Keep doing what are you are doing, and you are such a huge inspiration to not only to me but to many others as well.
Hey Tamara, I’m glad you found the time to understood what need to be done and I am so sorry you went through all of this, just know things will get better I promise you that… here’s a quote that I live by day to day “ a rejection is a redirection, something might not be going well in the moment, but just know the future will always have a better outcome”❤️❤️
Love this ♥ thank you!
wow tamara this was truly a breath of fresh air. i hope miami is way better on your mental health and full of better people
Thank u soooo much ❤️
This really is a prime example of you never know what someone is truly going through or what something is really like behind the camera. Although I can not relate to what you've gone through there, I can relate to wanting something to work out so badly and things just keep happening. My freshman year of college was horrible from the very beginning. I attended Purdue University (which is also in Indiana lol). I'm no longer there now and still trying to figure things out/where to transfer to. I was also accepted into IU and your videos actually made me want to go. I've been watching your vids wishing that my freshman year could've gone like yours, without any awareness of what you've been facing. People are jerks and you didn't deserve any of that. With all that being said, I hope you have an amazing time wrapping up your freshman year surrounded by those people who make you happy!
Aww I'm glad I could help your relate and I'm sorry ur situation at Purdue didn't go as planned but I wish you the best and know we will both find the perfect place for us! ❤
it's such a difficult decision to make, so proud of you for getting yourself out of this situation! you deserve nothing but happiness, you made the right choice
Glad to have you back on the 305! Hope you feel better
Life is so short and at the end of the day it’s so important to do what you want despite what others think. So proud of you for making this change for the better ! You’re doing and are going to continue doing great things Tamara ❤️❤️
Thank u with my whole heart! ❤
hey girlie just wanted to pop in and say that i’m really sorry u went thru what u did-i actually found u cause i graduated from IU last spring (ah!) and was searching iu stuff up on youtube. i hope u feel better and kno that things will turn out ok!! sending lots of love
This is so sweet seriously, thank you so much ❤ sending u love too!
Thanks for opening with us, you are amazing Tamara and every person who watch your videos know that. I can't wait to see what's next. Besos desde España :)
Awww sending love to u!
i've literally only watched your Rush video before this video but proud of you for making the best choices for yourself and wishing you all the best for the future
Thanks so much ❤ means alot
girl I’ve been following you forever and i always put on ur videos because ur so genuine and always feel like we are on ft😩 I’m so sorry you had to deal with this but thank you for being so real and talking about the important topics that people tend to keep under the rug🤍✨👼🏼
Thank you x1000❤
i always love all ur content but tbh i missed all the miami content anyways! luv u sm and i hope everyone goes as plan, sorry IU wasnt what u thought itd be i remember how excited u were :(
Yea it's sad but it's okay! I love u more ❤
I love youuuuu!!!! better things are coming pretty girl ⭐️🌷
I LOVE U
I honestly can't say anything else but applude you, you have such an amazing mindset and heart, you did what is best for you and nobody can judge you for that, ik ur future is so much brighter than any of the people that made you go through that. Love you 💕, i have for the past 4 yrs🤍
This is soo sweet!❤ thank u, my heart is so full and i love u!
proud of you !! onto the next
Miss u ❤ thank u bae
I am so sorry you had to go through that ! I am a transfer too went through the same thing but I don’t TH-cam obviously and it was the best decision I have ever made ! I go to fau now and the people are amazing in everyway ! Teachers are great ! And so much more ! Big recommend!
Also haters are going to hate ❤ everything happens for a reason! They are just jealous because they aren’t you who is amazing and truthful! ❤
im sorry girl, no one should have to go through this. you handled this very well, and you got this
You're a big city girl! You would thrive in NYC! I know you talked about staying in Florida but I could see you having the time of your life in Manhattan and really finding your true self. Especially in the fashion industry
So proud of you Tamara! Remember you decide your life and you'll always have to make decisions. Wish you the best! Love you work :)
Thank u so much ❤
