Some people meditate to relieve stress [3], others find success in giving up coffee [4], but Zendaya's nostalgic stress-relieving tactic has fans all over the internet rekindling their love for crayons and coloring pencils. On Thursday night, the 21-year-old took to Twitter to laugh at how she never understood those serene videos of people mixing paint [5] and cutting soap . . . until she found herself sucked into an internet hole captivated by the ASMR videos [6] herself.
I thought that all these "satisfying" video of people mixing paint and cutting soap and shit were stupid...I have been watching them for a solid 45mins straight.

Childhood dream come true!
