Hi y'all!! I finished my little 30th b-day video :') I hope you like it!! I'm still trying to decide on a thumbnail...for some reason I really like the shot of my desk with the frames and plants? Maybe just need to throw some text over it. I'm brainstorming!!

Is the title too dramatic?? HAH it comes up in the video, so it's not out of nowhere, but I fear it's a little too click-bait-y but also it's my channel!! and I can do as I please!!

let me know what you think <33 I'm really really happy with it :') it'll be going up for the public on saturday morning but y'all get early access hehe

sending all my love xx

I'll never be 29 again

wanted to make a very sappy, sentimental little video to celebrate my 30th birthday :') was inspired to try out a 4:3 ratio for this one!! and it was surprisingly fun to edit in...so if y'all dig this, I might do more of my vlogs in this ratio in the future heh. I also added a little film grain to increase the Comfy Nostalgia factor and I think it worked wonders happy birthday to me~~ ♡♥♡♥♡♥♡♥♡♥ ✸ a handful of links to help support Palestine: https://donations4gaza.carrd.co ✸ an excellent broadcast channel to follow -- consolidates daily updates re: Palestine so that you can stay up to date on what's happening without the information overwhelm: https://ig.me/j/AbZXhCHKgod1rjEq/ ♡♥♡♥♡♥♡♥♡♥ ✧ https://patreon.com/cheyennebarton ✧ https://instagram.com/chey.barton ✧ shop: https://cheyennebarton.com ✧ twitter/pinterest/spotify: @cheyennebarton ✧˖° tools • camera: sony a6400 with 35mm lens • editing: davinci resolve studio ✧˖° music (in order of appearance) ♪ shapes in time -- lullatone ♪ good weather -- louie zong ✷ all my music from lullatone is used exclusively under a license agreement with the artists ✷ stay frosty 🌠

okay but why do the beginning shots and music low-key make me wanna cry a lil bit??? (I also turn 30 this upcoming August, so tbh this video is gonna have me in my feels either way)

Ares Apollo

I think all of the old versions of you would be proud of the person you've become today. You've conquered a difficult hill to climb and I'm glad you could share your experience like this. You can only go up from here 💖 Also I do love the new format too!

Faras

Wow such years! Tbh it's touching to me that "you'll never be [age] again" became an inside joke. It's one of the earliest examples I have where I felt like "wow, I can be my somewhat morbid little self and still be loved, ain't that something?" I'm so proud of you for all the self love you've built in your 20s, and cheers to 30s bringing us to new highs!

Thank you for this.💜 I’m currently 29 and this helped me slow down and really reflect on what I’ve learned and gone through in my 20’s and what I want for my 30’s…I learned that I’m also ADHD in the past year or so and I really relate to you when you talk about your experiences with it as a child and currently. Thank you 🫶🏼 Happy early B-day Chey and Happy Pride🌈

Faras

Thank you for sharing your magnificent brain and sentimental heart with so many people! What a treasure!

Definitely cried my way through a lot of this 😭 It was so lovely. I turned 30 last summer and this feels so relatable ❤️

Happy (early) birthday to you! 🥳 (and me! apprently we share the same birthday!) I'm only one year into my twenties and the amount of things I have yet to figure out is franclly overwhelming, haha. It is really comforting to hear older people who have been in similar positions say that it does get better. Wishing us both a good future (and present) 🌟 And on the topic of the 4:3, my phone takes pictures in that format so I've grown used to it. Formating between diffrent screens can be a pain but otherwise I really enjoy it. Adds a unique and kinda nostalgic feel to your videos.

Isabel

Illegal to release such a stunningly beautiful video making me contemplate life when I'm a week away from graduating college!! 😭 happy birthday Cheyenne and thank you for all the years of joy you've brought everyone 🩷

As a fellow late diagnosed, bi, anxiety ridden, Seattle girlie on the precipice of turning 40, this video resonated SO MUCH. Just casually sobbing over here. Happy birthday and I’m so happy for you!

“…I feel good” that HIT me,, especially since the 12 months or so I’ve been in this quasi-depression, autistic burnout, seasonal affective disorder MESS that I’ve only now really come out the other side of. It feels good to feel good. But I don’t feel bad about feeling bad anymore.

Happy birthday Chey !!!! This video is so beautiful and it feels so heartwarming to listen to - thank you for existing, I started watching you when I felt lonely and lost in the beginning of art school. Now I’m graduating and feel super loved by the people in my life. To new chapters ~ I’ll always be grateful for you, you have been such an inspiration and anchor point for me. Thank you thank you thank you and I wish you the most pleasant birthday hihiii 💚

Layssa

I always postponed joining your patreon (because I kept forgetting!!) but I just had to so I could check out this video. you make the internet so much brighter, chey!! happy birthday!!! 🌼

Amy

Happy birthday chey!!! We’re birthday twins and I’ve always thought it was so cool to share a birthday with my favorite creator 💕 This video is so beautifully reflective and as someone who is still working on being kinder to myself, I cried when you talked about that 🥺 I love hearing about the journey you’ve been on. Thank you for sharing this with us and for bringing so much warmth and joy. I hope you have a wonderful birthday!!

i am watching this again for the second time with a cup of chai. very cosy vibes and it's the best way to watch any chey video. it is midnight, but still the 8th where you are. happy birthday, chey! you are the darling of my internet. i am so glad i found your channel a couple of years ago and so looking forward to more of your perspective in this next journey in your life! (my 30s is coming to a close and i can say this, it has been a wonderful time!)

There was so much in this video that I resonated with. A lot of what you’ve been feeling and spoke on are feelings that I’ve been holding too. It’s therapeutic to know that I’m not alone in this feeling of melancholy. It’s so beautiful and inspiring to see how you’ve progressed. I’ve always appreciated how honest you’ve been when it comes to mental health and the struggles that come with it. Thank you for sharing. Your words have been so helpful to hear. Happy birthday Chey!
