30 Days of Blogging - Day 29: AFOMFT, Youtube Channels

You know that feeling when something becomes such a part of your life that you kind of forget there was ever a time that it wasn't there?

Yes?

Then you also probably know the feeling when you meet someone who has no idea that thing exists and suddenly it's like your brain stalls for a moment and the only logical explanation you can think of is that they must be from an alternate universe or something!

Yes?

I had that feeling today.  Re: Youtube

Not the whole site, obviously -- they would have to be living under a stinking rock! No, just some channels that are so integral to MY YouTube experience that it boggles my mind that there are people who watch youtube, but don't know these channels exist.

I will outline them for you now. If you get into any, let me know, we can nerd out together.

Vlogbrothers
Nerdy banter between brothers John and Hank Green. You may have heard of John; he wrote a book you may have heard of... The Fault in Our Stars! And Hank is my favorite nerd of all time. Hence...

Hank Green channels
He has many many channels. Right now, I will insta watch anything from his personal channel hankgreen or his gaming channel Games With Hank or sometimes if he posts anything on hankgames which has been taken over by John playing FIFA which I don't watch. I watch most of the things that appear on SciShow and I'm subscribed to Crashcourse, but I rarely watch them. Hank Green music is nerdily enjoyable for me, but those are usually on Vlogbrothers. His Snapchat is my favorite thing.

Friends of Hank Green
Their little community of friends has a lot of vloggers in it. Michael Aranda whatimdoingrightnow and whatimpwningrightnow, Katelyn Salem, Clair Grosvenor, Matthew Gaydos (also makes the DFTBA Warehouse videos), Jesse from Animal Wonders, to name a few. Good stuff over there in Missoula. I enjoy vloggers, in case you aren't catching on.

We the Kings band members
Not all of them actually, but I like Danny and Lindsay's daily vlogs, and occationally Charles Trippy's.

There are another handful of channels I will instantly watch, but those it doesn't surprise me when nobody knows about them. Really, I'm only surprised how anyone can watch YouTube and not now about John and Hank Green. It's a big site, I get that, but like I said, it has just become so commonplace to me now that I can't even fathom the world that doesn't include them.

Everyone has different things that suck all their time away. YouTube is mine :P

Have a wonderful day, Lovelies. Tomorrow is the last freaking day; I'm so excited!!

So... How've you been?

Hello lovelies!  It occurred to me today that I have been neglecting my poor little blog! To make up for it, here is another  Random Things  post :) Thing One:  Movies!!! So many movies coming out in November that I want to see!! Off the top of my head... Big Hero 6, Mockingjay, and The Imitation Game. I know that's only 3, but considering a that a typical month has maaaybe one, I think it's impressive. Such a random spread too! I feel like it gives a pretty good insight into my personality... you've got the love of disney/animated/adorable, the gotta-see-how-well-they-adapt-this-book-why-are-they-making-it-two-parts-that-seems-unnecessary, and the nerd in me wanting to see 1) Benedict Cumberbatch, and 2) the history behind the one of the coolest set of code-breaking nerds ever!  I'm so excited (and I just can't hide it...etc.). Thing Two:  Singing in Public I'm not sure how I missed this about myself before, but it has come to my attention lately that I

Letters to Anxiety

Edit from the future for some context: Summer of 2015 I learned that I had been living with undiagnosed anxiety. And not just for a few years, but likely for my whole life. To say that the coping mechanisms that I had learned in those 25 years were "bad" is a significant understatement. It took me 3 years from this point to learn enough healthy coping mechanisms to -start- to tip the balance in the right direction, and another 2 years before I stopped using "failure" as a label for myself. Of all the posts on this blog, this one is the one I've wanted to delete the most. Just look at it! It's so cringey!! But, for better or for worse, I've decided that it gets to stay. It was an honest moment in time, and I don't have the heart to hide it. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hey Anxiety, You suck. Sincerely, Me P.S. I'm going to start writing you letters. I won't say daily (because we all know that isn't going to h

Dear Love, About Boxing Day...

I haven't blogged in months. This is mostly because I've been struggling with a lot of anxiety in this time and had the (decidedly disabling) thought that if I blogged at all, I should write about anxiety... Turns out that it is kind of anxiety inducing to write about anxiety. So I'm cutting myself free of that for now and I'm sure I'll write about it eventually, just not when it's a "should" write about that, but instead a "want to" write about that. I'm going to write instead about something very currently important. Dear Love, I need to talk to you about Boxing Day. Yes, December 26th. It's on a Saturday this year. (It's not important that it's on a Saturday, I was just pointing it out because I'm nervous.) So here the thing... Boxing Day is a big deal for my mom's side of the family; it's a big family reunion and all that jazz. And, well, I was kinda hoping you would be able to come this year. BUT th
