and we are recording so this one's a little bit different uh this is going to go on my mental
health and mental well-being playlist uh if you don't know me hi my name is ellen marie
rose and i have a publishing youtube channel but i'm trying to lean in more to the area at
the moment of mental well-being if you don't know what the hell this video is about billy
eilish is a singer-songwriter and she does this thing called the vanity fair interview she does
the same interview every year they also have the same questions they compare it year by year
i just thought this was really fun and it's super easy video and it's kind of nice for me to look
back on as well to see how i've progressed over the last year so i'm gonna answer the exact same
questions that billy got asked and let's see how it goes first one is what is your name my
name is elena marie rose how many followers do you have let's have a look i have a million accounts
so on my personal instagram i have 1489 followers on my bookstagram account i have 1498 followers
and on twitter which has become my main platform lately i have 6800 followers and then on youtube
i have 1 700 subscribers and on tick tock i have 1034. technology that blows your mind one piece of
technology that i was thinking about this morning while filming some tick tocks is the fact that
you can put filters on some people's faces and the fact that they can put makeup on you they
can like recognize that it's your face they can recognize when you open your eyes open your mouth
and they can put like fake makeup on your filters and stuff like that just still seems crazy to me
uh how often do you talk to your family every day i still live with my parents so i talk to my mom
and dad every day they like going traveling a lot and i still really miss them if they go like i'm
21 now and i still like to talk to them sometimes they don't get serviced and i feel really lonely
i talk to my brother and sister maybe like once or twice a week we have a fam chat so we all talk on
that pretty much every day to say what's been going on but personally my brother and sister
may be like once a week what's your favorite book oh my god paperback it's either got to be
it ends with us by colin hoover basic [ __ ] six days by danny atkins or your work wellness toolkit
by ellen m bard what's your favorite movie oh god i don't really have a favorite movie
actually it's going to be the greatest show man it's been like that for a couple of years
it's not even like the most brilliant film it's just my favorite it's really wholesome it's like
just yeah what's your favorite color right now pink i don't think this will ever change it's
always going to be pink like it's always been pink since i came out the womb and
it's going to be pink to the day i die what advice would you give yourself a year ago
oh a year ago like keep the connections going i guess connect with people online go out your
comfort zone talk to people in real life what advice would you give yourself a year from now
keep going look after your mental health make it a priority gonna say like how much of a reminder do
you need and i like make it a priority spend every day doing something that's going to improve your
mental well-being and it's going to shift your mindset short-term pain long-term gain what's
your biggest regret um god i just regret i think when i am too scared to do things there's not
a biggest one for me at the moment i think when i'm too scared and too anxious and too nervous to
do something and i don't speak up or i don't go ahead and do it or i don't say yes to something
i think i need to remind myself that memories you know will last a lifetime and the feelings of the
time the anxiety will pass and yeah what country would you love to visit i think i'm really lucky
to have gone to so many countries abroad in my childhood and my parents really like travelling
and yeah like they funded for me to go on some holidays before so i have been to a few and i'm
really grateful for that and now that i have to pay for myself i'm like oh i think now that i'm
older i would quite like to go to the us again i think that i find their lifestyle and their
way of living really interesting how they are you know they speak the same language as us but a lot
of the things we have a different way of living i don't know if there's like a particular state
i would like to visit and probably just somewhere in the u.s allowed to go or somewhere like really
exotic and really self-indulgent like dubai or hawaii what's the biggest thing you've learned
oh god um health and family are basically all that matters and and having a purpose in yourself and
driving to get the career that you want health like we can't do anything about health and i saw
i saw something this morning it was like if you don't make health a priority it's going to be a
priority like without you wanting it to be because you will do something and you overwork yourself
but you'll make yourself ill that health becomes the only thing that matters and family like
friends come and go work colleagues come and go like boyfriends and girlfriends come
and go a family does stay i know people have different situations but my family
i'm gonna get emotional my family have shown me so much love and support with anything they've
shown me like what unconditional love is um yeah what's your philosophy work every day
to improve something whether that's your work your work ethic whether it's your mental well-being
which is what i want to focus on now learning a new skill that's going to help you in the future
with your career use every day to learn something new shift your mindset or improve something in
your life how do you define your style in three words oh comfy basic and simple i guess basic
in terms of like tend to just copy other people simply that they're like i don't normally wear
patterns or layery colors what do you want to say to yourself in a year but i'm happy
i want to be able to talk to my future self and promise that i'm going to be happy and i
want my year self or myself one year today to look back on me today and say it's okay like
you're happy you're really okay you know not in the i'm totally miserable now but
like i want to just be really carefree and to a certain degree of reality
i don't want to be completely wild if you like i just want to be really content really happy
really content yeah there are my questions so let's uh do this again in a year
