Watch and Learn - my childhood bedroom

[ Music ]

this bedroom is kind of like a time

capsule because it really hasn't been

touched

ever like it's it has not been

changed in any way

since i was a kid and there is some

weird [ __ ] in here like there's just

some weird [ __ ] in here and every time i

come home like i find new stuff

every single time i can go on like a

treasure hunt in here and i'll always

find something new and something weird

and something i didn't find the last

time the only thing that's different

about it is that my dad decided to put

all of his musical equipment

in my room and so now

it kind of looks like a recording studio

mixed with

my childhood bedroom but it's still my

childhood bedroom

[Music]

is this kindergarten oh my god that was

me in kindergarten the haircut was kind

of good like i would get that haircut

again kind of makes me want to get that

haircut now you know like if it worked

for her then

why wouldn't it work for for me now

it's the same me yeah holy [ __ ] these

books

were so good i would literally buy one

of these from a bookstore and read the

whole thing in like two days and they

were so good i think i'm gonna read this

again like hopefully i'm not too old to

read it you know when you like go back

and you look at something again

that you used to love when you were a

kid

and it's just like not the same now that

you're older like that might happen with

this book but i'm gonna give it a try i

might read it later

i remember getting these

with my mom for

back to school and so my mom and i went

to go get me you know new shoes for the

school year

and i remember i picked these out and i

remember i got home and i

forced my mom to let me put them on and

i just ran around the house for like two

hours in these and i thought that they

were the sickest [ __ ] shoes i'd ever

seen in my life unfortunately they are

hideous

i had no idea i mean again i was seven

so like although if valencia came out

with shoes it was just like this

everybody would buy them so

what does that say about society you

know

this has milk stains all over it

those are milk stains i remember i used

to wear this every morning and then i

would watch

napoleon dynamite on the tv and eat my

breakfast and my breakfast was usually

some sort of cereal with milk

and this thing has [ __ ] milk all over

it still

okay thank god

why did i smell it

i was obsessed with the idea of remote

control

powered toys as a kid like i thought

that was most genius concept and the

most

exciting concept of all time it really

never even knew how it couldn't even fly

these remote control toys for kids never

actually work and it's so

such a

heartbreaking thing for a kid to go

through

this is a school art project

i say on here that i'm thankful for my

teacher

which is exactly like that is how you

know i was teacher's pet because i

really didn't need to do that but i was

maybe i'll get

a little extra love from the teacher

if i give her a little shout out on my

art project

that is manipulation and the fact that i

was manipulating that young

personally worries me

oh my god

i don't know where my dad and i got this

because neither of us wanted to eat it

it just like sat on our kitchen counter

for literally six months and then we

started pranking each other with it

so like i'd put it under his pillow

he would put it on the back of the

toilet seat

you know goofy [ __ ] like that there's

this thing called needle felting where

basically you take wool yarn almost and

you poke it with a needle over and over

again and then it starts to stick

together and create a like a little

stuffed animal and so my mom and i got

super into this for probably a month and

then we never did it again i actually

made this little bunny and honestly

super cute i remember the process of

creating these little things it was so

time consuming and you'd accidentally

poke yourself in the hand with a needle

and it was like

it was really it could get potentially

frustrating which is why i quit

making them

see

authentic hello kitty earring literally

i could go on depop and sell this for

like 80 now

i won't they're kind of they're kind of

they're kind of good

wait there's no way there's a [ __ ]

blockbuster coupon in here valid from

may 1st to june 15th 2004.

what the [ __ ] also why is this in my

room in 2004 i was three years old like

this wouldn't have been of use to me i

don't think i knew how to use a coupon

when i was that age

not the [ __ ] victoria's secret pink

sweet and flirty body mist

that actually smells [ __ ] terrible oh

my god it literally it just made me get

like a minor eyebrow headache yeah

that's pretty awful i thought i was such

a baddie i would wear these to my little

middle school dances

i thought that like really truly boys

were gonna finally like me

if i wore these it might have been

repelling them it reminds me of things i

just don't want to think about ever

again you know

this is like the type of thing i would

beg my parents to buy me i would be like

you guys no you guys don't get it this

is like going to change my life and then

they'd be like no it won't so like for

most kids you know they like play with

the toy for a week and then they get

bored of it like for me

i probably was carrying this thing

around for like six months

and like never got sick of it and that's

what that's why i'm different from other

kids and i'm not like other kids

stop it if these earrings ever come back

which just i feel like they will because

everything comes back like i already

have a stash

i have every color i have a hard time

believing that these were ever really

actually cute

oh no

[Music]

this is like all

i knew how to paint

so i just have like all these

all these paintings

of these weird triangle characters

like couldn't i have done like a square

creature like why did they all have to

be triangles i don't understand

it's fine but

was i trying to design clothes i don't

know how old i was when i drew this

based on the handwriting i must have

been like 14.

if i were to show this to somebody who

sews clothes they would be like babe

there's nothing there you didn't give us

anything

if you want this money you can have it

thank you for writing i do know how to

make fairy homes

if you want me to i can

and since you are a since you are a

fairy can i grant some wishes please

write dak listen like i i i need to

explain a little bit i used to be

obsessed with fairies and i thought that

fairies were real and i wanted to be a

fairy and i wanted to meet fairies and

so i'd make fairy houses in my backyard

and you know things like that so that

fairies could move in and i'd write them

little letters and that was that

situation um hi fairy i'm not a very

good

seller but just writing to say hello

from emma to fairy please write back

please

i mean

all about me name emma chamberlain hair

color caramel come on what does that

even mean occupations cello and needle

felting i played the cello no listen

this is complete [ __ ] i played the

cello

for literally six months in middle

school and on this

all about me school project i decided

that it would be appropriate to say that

my occupation was playing cello as if i

knew anything about the cello like i

took orchestra class in middle school

but i didn't actually like know how to

play the cello like i didn't know what

is going on what is that

i didn't know how to play the cello i

was like faking it like when we would do

performances for our families and stuff

like i would just

pretend like i was playing the cello i

wasn't even actually playing it needle

felting on the other hand i mean i

showed you earlier like i was definitely

doing that you know

for like a month favorite food pasta

true favorite band

the shins and the beatles

okay favorite book dear dumb diary

wait i wonder if i can find that

this

was my absolute favorite book it was so

edgy it's like journal entries i mean

they're not real fake journal entries

from this girl and they're all funny and

i i mean this book was genuinely this

book shaped who i am today

oh my god this might seem insignificant

to some but these tank tops with the

built-in training bra my god when i

bought one of these i was like yes i am

a woman

maybe maybe i'm losing my mind you know

stuff like this it is like an artifact

like it should go in a museum and like

this tiny little iphone 4 case i mean

like this stuff deserves to go in a

museum like this stuff is

rare i sewed this myself

like cute like it's cute i had this

phase where i would just wear old navy

fleece pajamas

everywhere i would wear them to the mall

i would wear them to the grocery store i

would have worn them to school if it

wasn't against dress code you can get

away with it when you're 11 but when

you're older it's just not good anymore

oh my god should i use it

this is literally 10 years old how does

it still work am i do i need to call

poison control i probably shouldn't use

that these were all the rage all the

girlies would be fighting each other

over who had the most flavors of these

eos lip balms it was like not good for

the for the community like people

and like they were like selling out at

stores everybody's fighting over these

it was really

it really caused some violence these

things i mean you can just tell that

these haven't been touched in you know

12 years like they just you can tell

they just have that look like you know

when you go into your grandma's nail

polish drawer and you pull out a nail

polish and it just looks like this

because it's just been sitting there

untouched for 10 years

longer 20 years [ __ ] it

what else is in here i mean it's like i

swear to god

it's never ending

you guys

oh [ __ ] i just stepped on an outlet i

just found a good ass hat wait this is

cute

i hated hats growing up so like this one

just got shoved in that drawer over

there this is such a good this is such a

good hat i feel like i just won the

lottery

see look i'm this is like productive me

digging through my room is productive i

swear i feel so bad for my parents

because i used to make them take me to

like those places where you can paint

pottery all the time just for me to be

this bad at

painting pottery like i had zero

artistic ability and i just feel bad for

them you know the amount of money they

spent and like this is what their

daughter made you know and i mean

they're good sports but it's just

look at my fancy little easter dress i

even had a purse wait

what does an 11 year old keep in their

purse let's find out

tic tacs that expire in 2010. okay so

these

so definitely won't be eating these

although part of me kind of wants to eat

one just see what like what would happen

yeah i don't want to do that actually

everybody's mom made their halloween

costumes for them growing up i feel like

this was one of my mom's it's honestly

[ __ ] great i was the corpse bride and

it's like this white dress that has dirt

all over it fraying you know lace and

stuff she killed it this is gorge

i wish i could say that like i was some

sort of visionary as like a six-year-old

when it came to painting it's just not

the case it's just not the case not

everybody is built like that so

i absolutely

cannot deal with the

with the duct tape era what were we all

doing

we were putting duct tape on everything

people were making outfits out of duct

tape and wearing it in public what why

there was like this certain era it was

like 2000

through like 2013 were like everybody

was making the weirdest decisions people

were obsessed with duct tape people

were like obsessed with mustaches i

can't be the only one that remembers

that people were wearing jeggings like

there was so much chaos this

oh my god

this is the most beautiful

children's jacket i have

ever seen up until right now i was like

yes i want to have kids when i'm older

but i wasn't like excited about it i

literally want to get pregnant right now

who this is a work of art tootin puddle

to hear it emma but what about the night

before christmas actually shut up are

you kidding me on christmas eve i will

whip this book out and read it just

because

i deserve it but i'm not gonna i'm not

gonna read it now because that's not how

that works like you have to read

christmas books only on christmas eve
