[14] BEDA 2011
Jag älskar dig! That means I love you in Swedish. I want to learn how to speak Swedish and have been doing so by looking on YouTube...heh
Anyways, on to the next 3 nerdfighters/wizard rockers/youtubers:
As promoused, I'll talk next about LukeConard. Chair wheeling, auto-tuning, head of Echo Base. (I don't know what that means...he was just the first guy at Echo Base...I think...nevermind.) Luke is half of the awesome that is ALL CAPS and a part of the wizard rock gods, The Ministry of Magic. I actually entered a music video contest they had once here. Pretty good if I do say so myself. Anyways, Luke is just a friendly talented guy. Thumbs up Luke, you are awesome!
Next is communitychannel, she's interesting to say the least. She does a lot of 'split screen' sort of things where she is having conversations with herself. She does this very well and very convincingly. Sometimes I forget she's not a twin. (she's not) She tends to talk about normal things that bother her, and it seems as if in each video she ends up either coming on to herself or the audience. If I could sum her up in two words they would be: unexpected and entertaining.
Another person who used the 'split screen' technique frequently and well is wheezywaiter. He tends to call the other hims clones. He talks about news but in a silly explosion filled way. He's very creative and does a lot from his computer chair. Yet I love the episodes when he goes outside, or gets coffee. "I love it when the coffee is done."
Now, I realize I've only been listing popular stars on YouTube. This is intentional. I did make a video a bit ago where I talked about not just popular YouTubers but also some little known ones. That video is here. Fun fact: I'm wearing that dress right now =P Anyways, my friend Josie posed a similar video today, called Pay it Forward and she 'tagged' me in it! (Thanks Josie!!) I will have to make another video like this later this month or soon, and this time I'll talk about the non-partnered, lesser known yet just as awesome, YouTubers. So look for that soon. I'll see ya all tomorrow with 3 more of the big guys.
Later days!

More Tubers!
[13] BEDA 2011
Hey guys, for todays blog, I'm going to give you another 3 YouTubers that I adore. Here we go:
Ok, lets talk about iJustine. Now I know iJ is super popular and even if you don't watch YouTube regularly you've probably seen her sometime. Her videos are comprised of music video song spoofs, ask iJ videos, and Vlog University videos. She was one of the first to realized the job potential of posting videos on YouTube and it is her main (if not only) job. By the size of her new apartment, I know she's making more money than me. She also has so many secondary channels with long random videos that get more views in their first hour than all my videos combined get...ever. She truly is something to aspire to for anyone wanting to make YouTube videos for a carrier, even when she does tend to get annoying after her 5th video of the day...
The next person is Catrific. I'm not sure why I like her so much, her videos are very basic and vanilla and even flat out boring t times. She works at DailyBooth and mostly just vlogs about that or really basic normal things. She's friends with a few other popular female vlogers I'm into so that's how I found her. I still watch her though, it might because she's kind, cute, and in that circle.
Finally, for today, I'll mention Alex Carpenter. I found out about him when I was showing my friends Andrea and Andy an ALL CAPS music video. Andy said he knew those guys and their friends who also had a band and then showed me The Remus Lupins which is Alex's wizard rock band. (Andy went to high school with Alex) That's when I got into wizard rock. Through Alex's music I found other wizard rock band and found out Kristina Horner and Luke Conard (I'll talk about him tomorrow) were in different wizard rock bands of their own. The cool thing about Alex is he does solo stuff and writes songs about other nerdy things as well. He is sort of blurring the line for me when it comes to 'YouTube Stars' and real people. Good job, Alex, for being a real person! (you know what I mean...)

The People in Your Neighborhood
[12] BEDA 2011
They're the people that you meet as you're walking down the street...well if by street you mean your YouTube subscriptions...
Yes, I know I'm so boring and all I talk about is vlogging here, but I don't care. It's my blog and if I want to spend the time talking about my favorite vloggers, then French the lama I will.
First I have to start with Tessa Violet aka Meekakitty. She was the first YouTuber that I found and indirectly introduced me to the world of online vlogging, wizard rock, and nerdfighteria. She's a formal model, nerdy, awkward awesome person. she mostly does just vlogs but lately has dived into the world of origional songs and music videos. She's too cute not to at least check out.
Then there is the world of Kristina Horner...she appears so many places it's hard to pin down just one. Her main channel is italktosnakes but she was also the Monday girl of fiveawesomegirls and is one half of the awesome nerd band ALLCAPS. There is also her second channel kristinahorner which is pretty much as awesome as her first. She sings wizard rock and other nerdy-themed songs and she vlogs. I don't know, I just really think she's great.
And last for today, I'm going to mention Shawna aka Nanalew. She is the YouTuber I see myself the most similar to in our style of YouTube videos. (My non-Cats ones that is) A lot of her videos are music videos made to other peoples music, short skits, short silly web shows, and general vlogging. What's interesting is she is an openly religious YouTuber and I am an openly non-Religious YouTuber. I don't see, however, how that has much do to with how I feel similar to her, just an interesting fact.
That's all I'll write about today. Perhaps I'll do another 3 YouTubers tomorrow, this was fun.
Later days!

some words of the day
[11] BEDA 2011
It's getting more real.
I don't quite have the key.
The grass is always greener.
Can't I just be?
A bit of lame poetry inspired by...my life.
I'm, 4 minutes in and already I knew Eat Pray Love was a bad idea.

[10] BEDA 2011
OK, I hate starting these blogs with VEDA news, but I have to. I'm not sure the 'rules' but I am going to attempt to film today but I'm not sure if I'll be able to upload till tomorrow...NOT SURE.
Sorry, today is happy and kinda sad at the same time. Weird month...weird month...keeps getting weirder.
I am going to Jim's sister, Alley's confirmation today, so it should be a fun and Catholic filled day, haha. I'm learning more and more the more I hang out with Jim's family. It's educational. So because of that, I have no idea when we'll get back and when I can film today...
So yeah...day 10! A third of the way there! w00t!!

Just another day...
[9] BEDA 2011
Oh dear, it's starting to get hard to keep doing this. I have things to do, people to see, sleep to have.
It's not the worst actually, VEDA is much harder.
I have to do my JV video tonight...sometime...I'll be more than busy tomorrow and Monday...well...there's work...
I'm not complaining, I just want to document my level of struggle each day on the path.
SO, a week from tomorrow I'll be 25...what a weird age. It's the final age that gives you something extra. Less exciting then the last, however it's still kind of a big deal. I'll no longer be 'on my early 20s' so much. I'll just be 'in my 20s' and then a year from now I'll be 'in my late 20s' Scary. That's just so close to 30. Well, whatever...not much else I can say about it right now. It's the 17th...
ARgggg, why is this month taking so long...it's so slow..hahahahaha
Ok, bye.

le sigh
[8] BEDA 2011
Tired today, working, editing, packing, bath, painted nails...
Watching the sun set currently, well...get lower in the sky at least.
When you only are at work for two hours and you have the rest of the day to watch Dr. Who and sit around...it goes by very slowly.
I feel as if I should be writing poetry or something...listening to Enya and burning incense as I create beautiful things.
For now though, I'll just clean my room, pack things, and finish season three of Dr. Who.
Who knows what the night will bring, friends and more I'm sure.
Not much to report, melancholy is an understatement.
Sighhhhhhhhh =/
