5:05 Omg hearing her sad voice made me cry :c

"There are 7 billion people in this world, meaning there are 7 billion stories to be told." I still find this to be the most inspirational quote I've ever seen in my 17 years of life

"To the world you maybe one person but to one person you maybe the world" I love that .

Yes, your Vietnames name is so beautiful. Tuyết Băng. And your Vietnamese voice is so cute. You just say two word Tuyết Băng but it's full. I love you, I miss you so much.

Can't believe it's been a year since my "Draw my Life" video. One day I'll do a part 2 :) #tbt #throwbackthursday

Your voice sounds like something that would come out of a Disney movie !

Its been 6years but this will always be my favourite "draw my life" video 💛

Words can’t express how much I miss Michelle 😞💕

Who else cried.Your real life story is so touching.

I clicked on your video by mistake and I just want to say that it was the best mistake of my life. My dad comes home drunk and my mom is so sad these days. The only way I can ignore the pain I am feeling every day is by drawing and listening to music. I don't really have a lot of friends either because my best friend moved out of the city and I feel so lonely with my friend being far away and my mom turning more sad and more cold each day. I had lost all hope and faith and your video gave me some strength. I'm really sorry about all the pain people have caused you, I'm really happy that you found and I'm really great full for giving me some hope ( I'm sorry for my English it's not my language)

Weird fact: When i was little, this video made me sleepy because the way she drew everything was satisfying....ik weird but okay..

I'm rewatching this for the first time in years, this hits so different. I'm crying. Thank you for sharing Michelle

This story is so inspirational that it made me cry

THIS IS LIKE THE BEST DRAW MY LIFE.

Still watching this in 2019!!!! I love you Michelle!!!! 💕😭

This is the best life sketch....I've watched.....2018...❤💚💛💜💙

WHY IS NO ONE COMMENTING ABOUT HER UNBELIEVABLE DRAWING SKILLS

For some reason, it all seems that the youtubers have sad lives...

I first watched this video what I was 12 or 13 and now I’m 22 about to graduate college. I recently thought to myself, hey, “what happened to those draw my life videos” so I thought maybe I’d watch this for old times sake. When she said good luck on the next chapter of your life, it really hit me because I’m moving far away from home. Funny how life can hit you with things and you just get joy from the simple things. Thank u :) needed that inspiration and hope for the future

i remember watching this so many times when i was younger it really stuck with me

I hope her father knows how successful his daughter is , just so he could regret ever leaving ..

Respect for your mother for taking you and leaving.

Mish, you're such a strong empowering woman. You've been through so much, all I can say is thank you for inspiring us these past few years. I know you haven't been active on YT for various good reasons, but please know that we'll support you no matter what. I'm glad that you've been taking your time to really find out who you are as a person (idk if that sentence makes alot of sense but you get what I mean). We love you~

"You never forget the first friend you make" That hit me hard

Who's watching this in 2016? Watching this again and it's so beautiful.

...my dad left today. He didn't even fight with my mom ever. He just left in the night. I miss him. I hope he comes back.

I remember this being the first video I’ve seen by Michelle... I cried the first time watching it. It was really emotional, motivating and I wish everyone the best of luck in their path in life.

Remember when the beauty community wasn’t filled with drama, toxicity, and bad people.....yeah, me too

this is the best DRAW MY LIFE video ever...

this made me cry, ily michelle

Anyone watching this in 2019?!?

Mother's are strong for there children. Always.

So sorry about your father ☹️

WOW.. I've never been so touched by someone's story before, but this one almost made me cry.. you should consider writing a book about your story.. I would definitely read it..

This video never gets old.

It’s July 2020 .. Was feeling nostalgic today so went through my KZfaq history .. 7 years ago I remember getting tears in my eyes when I first saw this video.. the same emotion overtook me 7 years later when I watched it again. Took me 7 years to muster up my courage and start my own KZfaq channel. But you really deserve all the success and happiness .. god bless 😊

I think Michelle Phan should have her own movie.

So good at drawing aw

Wow!!! This was awesome! I was totally drawn in and I thank you for sharing your story!

Now that I’m watching this. My teacher who moved to Florida after I graduated middle school said that Florida kids, are a nightmare to the point where she quit. Oh Michelle I hope that trauma only slide away your memory.

You are the most inspirational person I have ever met.

I don't even watch this channel, but I can say for 100% certain this is the best "draw my life" on the internet.

Oh, I feel you Michelle. I’m just like you, I love drawing, I moved a lot, far from my home, being teased is often. I’m Asian too, except about your father, don’t worry. Believe in yourself

this is one of the most inspirational video in my life and i like how michelle "avalanche" never gave up. i want to here more about michelle's life and about her soulmate in Paris please make a video about that michelle! like if you want to hear about it too!

You sound like a Disney princess😇

I think I know why your first dad left. It might be this: He realised he was hurting you guys by gambling and losing all of his and your money. He thought he would hurt you less by leaving.

I just watched this video today and I got emotional learning that you had gone through so much loneliness and pain. You have persevered and have become such a strong, successful business lady, and have found the love of your life. You are very inspirational! Big hugs and lots of love!!!

i remember watching michelle at such a young age, she really helped me find someone to look up to. i had a very similar family experience as her at such a young age and her videos and this one especially helped me through it all. thank you michelle for everything you did, your videos, makeup tutorials, etc.

you made me cry dear. you re so strong.

such a angelical voice, ....

the moment when u just forgot who your first friend was 0.0

I watched this so much when I was going THROUGH it in middle school and early high school, and here I am again. Still amazing, still makes me cry.

your drawing is so good wtf i can't evEN DRAw a STICK FIGURE UGH

holyshit michelle this is deep

For some reasons, i cried half way through her video. i was so touched by her authentic, optimistic and happiness even when things at her worst. Although the video was made 7 years ago, its still the kind of rare up to date, just like her.

I don’t know how many times I’ve been watching this and still missed her even though I see her on instagram.

God them invisible ninjas cutting onions need to stop....

It bring tears to my eyes😭😭😭

2019 but i cannot recall how many time i rewatched this one video. Because whenever i feel down i come back to this, think that my life is tough but seeing this inspires me to do more. Even she is not making more videos but this one will always keep living inside of me. Thanks you for all your kindness, Mish. I love you.

I m watching in march 2019! Loved it. This was lika a movie. Her pronunciation is so clear and her voice is so gentle and clear.

Omg, I don't even know this KZfaqr and I cried. Why do all youtubers have a hard childhood??

Why does every single draw my life have to be sad?!? I'm crying!!! 😭😭

I believe I first starting watching your KZfaq videos when I was 13 or 14, I didn’t understand most of what you said then but now that I come back to this at age 17....it makes so much more sense now. Thank you for sharing your story! Your were a big inspiration to me at 13, your still that inspiration!

I still watch this, one of my favorite videos ever.

How can you draw so good ON THE COMPUTER?!?! 😍😍😍

I wish that my Mum would have enough courage to leave my stepdad. He's leaving me so many scars that will never be healed. But because I'm the only child and my Mum's wages isn't good enough to move out so we have no choice but to stay in his house. Everyday is a nightmare. I really can't wait to grow up and help my Mum out.

I cried sooo hard!!! 😭😭😭 Such an inspiring life story! God bless your mom and her children.❤

Poignant. Touching. Moving. A story that is still being written. They say life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards. May you find joy along the journey, and peace in your heart, Michelle. Blessings to you and your precious family...

I got a late start to who Michelle Phan is, but iam so glad i found her. Iam inspired by Michelle. I love these stories were she draws. God bless u Michelle

Knowing Steve, I'm not really surprised he almost accidently killed his newborn sister

Her voice is beautiful and so...calming.

Every couple of years I need to come back and re-watch this video. It's just SO GOOD 💛

Who is watching this 2016!? This is so special video by Michelle Phan and her mother ! 😭😭❤️😭😢😢

This is the best Draw My Life ever.......... I cried....... Thank you for being such a wonderful inspiration Michelle.

8 years ago and still inspirational. I love you queen

whenever it feels like my life won't get any better I always go back to this video.

my dad hits my mom and always gives us a tough time...mom always cries but still can't leave him...I hope some day we will have a peaceful life :(

7th time watching, still crying like an emotional wreck I can't even oh my god.. I cried too much when she said 'this is a story I'd rather not talk about' because I guessed it was either an abusive stepfather, or something a very gruesome man would do. *Rape* . I'm sorry, Michelle Phan for that.. But at least your a successful, beautiful girl who has achieved her dream :)

One of the most beautiful Draw My Life videos out there!! I love how she turned something so hard into something so beautiful!

You know when you're telling your life story and you don't cry,it means that you've healed... I am so proud of you michelle...😍

I have watched this 100000 and I can't stop watching it it's sad to😔😔

omg lol my family came up to see if i was okay because i was crying so hard!!!YOU ARE SUCH AN AMAZING ARTIST!!!!

When your dad went missing I was going to cry

Thank you Michelle for this - I literally watched this back in 2013 and until now and am still just a big fan of yours.

this is the BEST "Draw My Life" I have ever seen!!!!!

She is an amazing drawer!

Look at where you are now. You’ve grown so much Michelle. Love you, and good luck x

Man I always cry at the end where she says "To the world you may be a person but to one person you may be the world". It always gets me and now it gets me even more because I found my world and that person found his.

i keep on watching this again and again, i never got bored :)

UH MY EYES ARE JUST SWEATING

Michelle!!! I am a fan of yours since 2014, and until now I'm still searching for you and this is one of my favorite videos of yours. I love you so much!!! Btw your so good at drawing. Don't worry Michelle We love you!!

Watching this video again alone in a room coz every time I fail to control my tears😭😭... Every time I wonder how can it be so soothing and relaxing to watch her video in her angelic voice and she is also so thoughtful. Lots of love and power and infinite happiness to you..❤️

I'm literally in tears, we're so alike but ur much tougher than me

Really? 4,000 dislikes? Why are people so dumb...

this woman has been through so much she deserves every success she has made I am so proud of her. I started watching her when I was 6 now I am 13 i love her so so much

I’m crying. You sure do know how to make your story emotional.

My heart skipped a beat when I heard the background music, its Rue's lullaby from The Hunger Games! My favourite song and movie! Great video BTW!

This is the most inspirational video ever.

Its been 10 years but still this is my favorite draw my life video ♡

i use to be obsessed with this and her videos.
