This is the reason I love Dodie, she's confident in herself and is not too terrified to make this video. I honestly think you are perfect and always will be. Please never give up on social media, it's where you belong. Lots of love as ever xxxxxxx

Watching her get so excited just makes me smile


in 5 years i'll be 20 WHATS IT LIKE IM FREAKING OUT


In 5 years it will be my 21st birthday??? ps thanks for existing dodie you're, like, my favourite person


HAVE YOU RELEASED AN EP YET????? dodie pls


i'm si saad you alway think such thoughts, i'll try to send you positive energies but try not to worry about death, i mean everyone does it's not that big of a deal


@Rikkaya ha ha I do watch alotta yt videos!!

+MCR Guitar just saying in five years time I'm 18 and 4 months shit !!

+MCR Guitar seriously nearly every video I look through the comments and you always pop up so I'm like YAY!!


You think you haven't written a really good song yet DODIE WTF!!!


Im only like 14 and im TERRIFIED of the future it makes me emotional just thinking about it gahhh.Just wish that like so far of my life is just a dream and i will just wakeup as a baby(lol)


just wondering i was watching your old videos on this channel and there is one where you shout 'IAIN FOR FUCK'S SAKE' - one of my favourite moments btw XD - do you have a brother? it's just you never talk about having one but you do talk about Hedy sorry if there's a personal reason or something i'm just curious :)


Ohh Dodie. I want to hug you so much.
And tell you, that life gets better... but you know that very well! It comes and goes in waves...
And I know your life is not my life. And your experience are not the same as mine.
And probably we are nothing alike. And these words will mean so much less to you than they mean to me.
But I remember being 20,  (and the memory I have of myself at this age seems like it is pretty similar to the Dodie in this video and realizing that hurts a bit because I want to hug 20 years old me very much right now, tell her to breath and telling her that it alright...)
I remember being 25, as well, (it's really not long ago at all) and the world laying between... all the things I did, I stood on mountains and I cried under my desk. I can barely grasp it, so much has changed. And that is more frighting than anything, I know that very well. Time passing is sooo frighting. Life can be so incredibly frighting. But it is so beautiful as well when you take each day as it comes and make the best of it. Enjoy the way, not the goals! (These boring old words. I am sorry...)

I hope your journey will be incredibly beautiful!!! I really, really do!


woah I just realized that I started knitting at 15<br>I hope I'm still knitting at 25 (I'll be 20 next July)

woah I just realized that I started knitting at 15
I hope I'm still knitting at 25 (I'll be 20 next July)


i'll be 22 in 5 years oh god<br>i hope i've got a degree know what im doing with my life maybe a lover a good job and a nice house and a dog and great friends

i'll be 22 in 5 years oh god
i hope i've got a degree know what im doing with my life maybe a lover a good job and a nice house and a dog and great friends


that wicked reference though <3 amazing video


I wrote a letter to my future self. I'm not sure where it is but I'm sure I will find it one day. I mostly told myself about where I was then (like  year ago?) that I hoped I was better, more okay, but even if I wasn't, that's okay too. I feel like in this video you put a lot of pressure on your future self. Like, in a fun and excited way, but I guess maybe you wouldn't ever see that as pressure. I remember writing my letter and concioisly trying not to do that. In case future me read it and felt like she had failed her younger self. I wrote a lot about how far I have come already, and how even if there are still shitty things in the future, I've always been able to get through it and that future me is no different. That if I have a job or a career, that's great! That's like, the biggest achievement ever (I've been unable to work for years due to mental health). But if I don't, that's totally fine too and we will probably get there one day! I think mostly, I wrote to myself and told myself that this is where I am now, and wherever I am in the future, that's okay. If I'm reading it, I'm alive, and that's so wonderful and more than I could ever dream of.


i was gonna do a future me video but holy crap it  scared me lol i don't even want to think about it!!!


so many emotional rollercoasters in this video


Ahh this video scared me, I'm going to be eighteen when you make a reply to this!


I'm 10 seconds in, before I watch anymore will this video make me cry?


It scares me to think about my future. Im 14 years old and in 5 years I hopefully will be out of school. Travelling through Europe and The USA. Maybe I would volunteer in Africa or maybe I live in New Sealand. My little brother is 12 now and than he will be 17. What the heck?! In 5 years... Will my brother ever grow up? Is my grand dad still alive? (I dont think so, because he has cancer and there is nearly no time for him)
But the last, but not least question: Do we have Hoverboard in 2020?
Jule, 14years old
p.s. Are Dan and Phil out to the Phandom in 2020?


in 5 years i'll be 20 oh my god, i'll be at college...i hope.

WOW this scared me too but seriously Dodie stop worrying that you won't be relevant in 5 years, your young and your Channel is only getting bigger and bigger. You will be still be around

does hedy have a boyfriend? or a girlfriend?


In 5 years ill be 19 and that's scary I don't like it


You living in Epping ?? Woah that's really near me


In five years i'll be 18.  Oh my god, what if I don't graduate high school? Do I continue with Spanish? Or do I stop by freshman year? because right now is bad.  Do I find out what sexuality I am? Or will I never know?  Am I still friends with all of my friends now? Did anyone move? Do I know what I want to do with my life?  What colleges do I want to go to? Do I still play the cello? Please say I get into some fancy music school.  Are you better at talking to people? Do you feel confident in yourself?(because that's not happening for me right now) Did you get an A in 7th grade Spanish? Or did you fail and have to repeat the year over again?  Does anyone love you that you didn't know existed when you were 13?  Do you still watch YouTube? Please tell me you didn't try YouTubeRed because if you did then you must not have a social life, you barely do now but thats still a social life.  Have you gone outside of the continent? Have you gone to at least one YouTube convention? because I know you wanted to do that when you turned 15 or 16.  How was the "fantastic beasts and where to find them" show? Do you still like Harry Potter? Have Dan and Phil gotten married yet?  How many more oscar's hotel are there?  Did you find a talent? Or something your really good at? Is Donald Trump president? Is there a WW3? If he is president, did you move to Canada like you said? What about England? Are you better at sports? Do you have more anxiety because of high school? How long is your hair? Is it still a pixie cut or are you growing it out again? ok, see you in 5 years future self, I wonder if you'll see this... If you do today was a half day, someone farted on the bus and arctus told kate that she had a crush on her.  It's also the day they selled plastic poppy's at school.  You are 5'8, your hair is kinda shaved on the sides, and you own hogwarts leggings.You've been playing the cello for about 4 years, you have the awesomest friends in the entire world that are just as weird as you, and you have an IPhone 5(do you ever get a 6s?)

+Maddie Daw Also, i forgot to ask if your happy with your life? Because right now your life is in between 'meh' and 'blegh'


FUck in 5 years I'll be 21 WHATT IS THIS STOP PLease this is too much thinking

Cute cute cute! I remember you living in bath! That's when I first started watching you and Jamie, it's incredible to see how far you've come, I can't wait to see how much you've achieved when your 25.
YOUVE DEFINITELY MAKE INCREDIBLE SONGS!! Silly billy. I love all of your songs!
I hope you feel happier soon! Because you deserve it!  Hedy is going to be a wonderful young lady, I don't doubt that one bit! 💜 Love you lots!

Someone as lovely as you can only have wonderful things coming to you in the future. I love you Dodie! *internet hug*


this is a super cool idea! well done Dodie:)


Assuming youtube doesn't go down all together, I'm sure you'll still have an audience then. I bet there's loads of people like me out there that just cling to everything from their past and know that if they love something now, they'll probs love it forever <3<br>can't wait to see where you're at by the time you can respond to this! This is gonna sound stupid but I hope that in 5 years I'll have done well enough at youtube that we'll sort of be acquaintances by then :P

You know there's a thing to improve skin quality. An oil thing. I know it's weird to wash your skin with oil but it actually works apparently. I saw it on Cammies own channel (from Shannon and cammie) you should check it out !


I'm so happy to have seen this the day it came out and hopefully see the reply on the day that's out! (ik you think you wont have an audience but I will still watch you tbh because your videos make me so happy lol lame) anyway this was a really cool video and I like it a lot - in 5 years I will be 20 omg thats scary gosh


Love this video but what scares me is one day Doddie will reply to this being 25 ah! x


this is such a good idea omg you look great btw❤❤


It's like a visual time capsule, this is so cool. (:


okay well now I have to watch dodie for 5 more years (not that i was planning on stopping) because i have to see how this turns out


This got me thinking: in 5 years I'll be 20. That's terrifying to me.


now i can't wait until 2020 to hear all the answers! :D <br>oh god, what will life be like?

now i can't wait until 2020 to hear all the answers! :D
oh god, what will life be like?


the 5 years between 20 and 25 for me were huge differences.. but mostly positive :)


it scares me to think about myself in 5 years... ( 26, almost 27 whaaaaaat?)


Omg please do a defying gravity cover with split screen please please please!!


i love this, in 5 years i will be 19 ahhhh omgggg


so i'm not the only one talking to the future me ... thanks !


omg the description was way to real!! But this video is fab! :)


Dear 25 year old me: wow you were such a baby then though you sure thought you were fully grown and mature. You knew nothing and were depressed and afraid of the future. Now, the future is exciting and literally everything only gets better. Your skin's gotten better, your mentality has gotten better, your self esteem, your relationship with yourself and with your parents, your priorities, your job, your body, your interior decorating skills, your intellect, your understanding of things in general and of yourself- literally all of that's gotten better. And it's only been 3 years! Your 20s were okay but your 30s are going to be awesome. Here's hoping you never get pregnant!


this kinda makes me wanna cry omg this has made me think a lot :-;


FRICK IM GOING TO BE YOUR AGE WHEN YOU REACT TO THIS IN THE FUTURE


Omg love your dungarees skirt thing where is it from?? And you are fabulous so you will always have viewers! Your hair is Goals too :D


Dont get a nose job! You have a beautiful nose!😊💞

It's only been 3 years so far but it is safe to assume nothing will change to drastically.<br>Everything is basically the same apart from your experiences and maturity

why is every top comment a comment by someone with a monetized channel

HEDY IS AN AMAZING, TALENTED HUMAN BEING WHO WE ALL LOVE


shit 20 year old me better have moved out and gotten a fucking hair cut ffs and also not died pls, thnkssfds,mnnm mgbkjhb


Who is watching this?!?!

No one cares that much, sorry


Dear twenty-year-old Dodie, if you want to be happy you need to stop spending so much time thinking and talking about yourself, get out and do something for others and I guarantee you you will become happy. Yours is a generation of self-centeredness like no other generation ever. That's why you're so unhappy. It is only by giving to others your time your treasure your talents that you can ever be truly happy. Trust me on this I'm 63, I love your music, I teach it to my students and I know what I'm talking about. God bless you young girl, now get out there and do something for somebody and stop thinking about yourself so much ♡
