first Q&A video! | ☆ your questions answered ☆

03 July 2018

HELLO TODAY IS MONUMENTAL MY FRENS. 

sincerely.

truly.


When I started blogging...I don't know, six years ago (?!!), I never thought I'd 1) make it this far and still be blogging as I grew up and became older and 2) that the day would come when I could finally create a YouTube channel and chase my passion of creating video content.

 I was surfing YouTube earlier today, and it's honestly crazy to me the growth of social media and how it's gotten so...big.  YouTube is a wonderful, but also crazy platform.  I mean, how many people do you know IRL that have a YouTube channel? I feel like YouTube is a "thing" nowadays that's cool to do and people are so much more interested and ready to invest in it because it's so well-known (and you see the success stories of YouTubers who've "made it" and they're living a dream life.  but, honey, everyone has problems...even them xD).  So going into making a channel for myself, now, in 2018, I was like..."honestly, will something come out of this?" and "why....why am i doing this?"

Yeah, it might be a cliche thing to say, but I don't think I'm doing it for popularity.  I mean, sure, numbers and stats are definitely nice, but something I've learned through blogging all these years is that you have to be committed to what you love to do, even when you don't get comments or the pageviews are drastically low.  And I believe that applies for any social media nowadays.  I've wanted to create videos since I was ten.  And the fact that now, years later, I still have a passion and huge liking for creating videos is to me a sign that YouTube, in all honesty, should really just be a place where I can share my videos.  And if someone, a lovely radiant amazing human being wants to watch me, then I'm just thankful. 

ANYWAYS so I'm stoked about this new journey.  There's a lot of things in life that I'm not sure about, but one thing that has gotten me through the past few months is the thought that I can start a new creative outlet for me -- through YouTube.  SO!

I filmed this Q&A last week, and I kid you not, I had to cut so much out of this video.  It was literally over an hour of footage I had, and no ONE is going to sit through that.  So here you go.  20 minutes.  STILL CRAZY LONG I KNOW.  But better than 60 minutes xD

I hope you like the video and let me know my commenting on my video!

also...Abbie, I literally filmed this a few days before I got your questions so I'm super sorry they aren't in the video! I'll answer them in this post instead xD

- favorite time of day? - Probably mornings :) They're so peaceful...after the initial waking-up process.  xD But I'm also a night owl all the way, so I think it honestly just depends on my mood.

- favorite fictional character (and why?) - Ohh, I don't know if I have a specific favorite fictional character to be honest. 

- dragons or unicorns? - HMMM dragons because really they just seem a lot cooler 

- would you rather be able to time-travel or read minds? - OH MY GOODNESS THIS IS SO HARD.  I wish I could say both lol UMMMMM.  I guess I'd say time-travel, because as cool as it would be to read minds, I feel like sometimes it's just better not knowing what other people think.  Because otherwise....you'd almost feel compelled to do stuff just because you know what they think...rather than just doing your own thing.  Also time-travel would be way too cool because you could just spend time in random places throughout history and become more wise and cosmopolitan haha

- top 3 countries you'd like to visit??? - Israel, New Zealand, Australia (and wayyyyy too many more lol) 



And if you just want to watch the video on here then HERE IT IS!! But you should definitely head over to the channel and look around a bit too :'))) 



OK THANKS FOR MAKING IT TO THE END OF THIS POST!!!!

Let me know what your thoughts are and how your summer is going!!! LOVE YOU.
