I've come out of retirement -- the crazy thing is, I'm just getting started.

One guy who can actually say his life’s a movie. Whole character arc and everything. Thanks for sharing it with us. Chills man !

[RK-myly]

Thanks Elliot…
As I write this I can’t help to think how embarrassing it is for a 50 year old, middle aged, Korean man to comment on a you tube video from a 20 something - that statement not only makes me feel old but old fashion as well. In 2018, I started out watching your Vanderbilt day in a life video to gain some insight into colleges for my oldest daughter who was applying to colleges. And lately, I’ve turned back to your videos as my youngest daughter will be getting ready to apply to colleges, but I forgot you graduated already. The truth is…I realized that I’ve been watching more for myself than for my kids. I guess watching your content brings back memories of my college years and my 20’s. Just wanted to say that I appreciate your courage, creativity, and humility.

[quaysian]

The fact that he summarized 4 years of his life into 12 minutes just shows me how fast the college experience goes by. Because of this video I’ll savor every bit of college. Thanks so much.

*For me, it seems that Elliot has never left college for 20 years* 😱

"Having something worth crying over is the most beautiful part of it all"

This resonated with me SO much, I've been experiencing a similar feeling these past few days. The fact that it sucks that something is over just means how great it was 🙌🏼 Still means it's okay to be a bit sad about it ♥️

[susankhong]

as an incoming freshman, this video is honestly so inspiring and made me feel like no matter how low my life could possibly drop to, there is always a way to turn it around. thank you elliot for sharing your journey. ♡

[sebastienaterrado]

A chapter has ended for us fans too when Elliot finished college. Can’t wait for another chapter you’ll be sharing with us!

Congratulations, Elliot! 🥳

[mochirella]

Man this got me in tears. I'm a freshman and this made me realise how much memories covid is taking away from us 😢

[lilsunset]

this made me cry, it’s so true and everyone doesn’t realize the significance of every second. you never know when you will end another chapter of your life. love you elliot

[smolbean]

it’s weird to see the news of the beginning of corona now, it seems surreal

[ShawnMedic]

I found Eliot when he posted fascinating “a day in my life as a college student”. I was totally moved and b4 I knew, I subscribed his channel. Since then, I have watched every his videos. I feel times flew by.. can’t believe his graduation. Anyway, Eliot is one of the best YouTuber. A big fan from Japan.

[LauraRouder]

Thank you so so much for this video! You made me cry!!!! You are such an inspiration. Im so proud of you and all of your achievements

[melrosegustilo]

To think I was at the very start of Elliot's vids, up until this day, makes me emotional. His vlogs are the primary reason why I was motivated to do things. His videos has truly inspired me to go on with college life. I actually never get tired watching his amazing vlogs repeatedly. Thank you Elliot, for sharing us your wonderful college life. I'm so proud of you. <3

[Jenstine]

Dang I remember watching your channel ever since you posted the first day in my life video. Since then I’ve loved watching your vids and was always so inspired to work hard and go to college because of them. It’s crazy how life whizzes by! Sad to see this chapter of your life come to a close but I know there’s so much more to come and I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors!
