YouTube just might be the greatest website to ever exist. Well, after Google of course.

The video sharing giant has launched everyday people like Tyler Oakley, Tori Kelly and Todrick Hall into the national spotlight.

So what potential YouTube stars do we have in our midst right here in Tallahassee?

Don't fret: as always, I got you. And because I'm excited to get back to my beloved university (we're less than a month away from move-in day!) I'll make this the FAMU-edition five YouTubers you have to subscribe to:

1. WestIndieRay

Major: Broadcast Journalism

Year of Graduation: 2017

Social Media: 'WestIndieRay' on Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter

Channel Description: "I do beauty and wellness tutorials as well as give advice and speak about my personal experiences. I cater to minority women but my channel is kid-friendly so young girls can tune in without hearing profanity. I love natural hair tutorials because I like to encourage young, black women to embrace themselves and mix style with good health. I also like talking about social issues within the black community and to perpetuate a trend of modesty throughout my channel. I wanted to do something that my mother could be proud of."

I Chose FAMU because: "I wanted to add to my experience and go to an HBCU. I felt like it would help me get in touch and connect me to Black Americans and Black American culture since I am culturally Jamaican."

2. Just Call Me B

Major: Social Work

Year of Graduation: 2019

Social Media: 'Vintage_Kido' on Snapchat, 'CallMe___B' (three underscores) on Instagram, and 'KvngCasanovaa' on Twitter

Channel Description: "I just want to reach out and be the next great leader. Shortly before I attended FAMU, I searched YouTube for answers to my college needs. It never hit my soul until I realized that I was blessed to be on the 'Highest of Seven Hills' that Youtubing would be my favorite new hobby. The Black Excellence here at FAMU has allowed me to get in touch with myself and allow me to reach out to others that are just like me! My YouTube platform is a need-based platform geared around college essentials, Story Times, and great life advice. Transitioning from high school to college can be very nerve-wrecking, and I want to make your college experience the experience for YOU."

I love FAMU because: "My FAMU experience has been phenomenal! It's like once you go to FAMU you never know any other HBCU because FAMU is the epitome of black excellence."

3. CeCeBanks 96

Major: Biology Pre-Med

Year of Graduation: 2019

Social Media: 'CeceDidThat' on Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter

Channel Description: "My channel is about my experience at FAMU, and sharing that experience with others. I also do sit down videos."

I Chose FAMU because: "When I got accepted, the welcoming vibe from the students and alumni was overwhelming. Once I went to orientation, I fell in love with the campus. It is the best decision I've ever made."

4. Nallah Brown

Major: Broadcast Journalism

Year of Graduation: 2019

Social Media: 'NallahB' on Instagram and 'Meet_Nallah' on Twitter

Channel Description: "My channel is a space for positivity. All that I post is lifestyle related, whether it's my college vlogs or my "sit down and talk" videos, with the occasional short film/concept video. My main purpose is to connect and uplift as many people as I can."

I Chose FAMU because: "I saw it as a place of opportunity for me. I get to be surrounded by people who look like me and are striving to be excellent! FAMU is home away from home and I am so grateful for my second home."

5. CeeDotCeeTV

Major: Theatre

Year of Graduation: 2013

Social Media: 'CeeDotSnaps' on Snapchat and 'CeeDotCee' on Twitter and Instagram

Channel Description: "My channel is a gumbo pot of comedic commentary on pop culture, TV shows, Story Time, and just a sprinkle of inspiration to top it off."

I Chose FAMU because: "I wanted to obtain the best training in theatre arts and after doing some research, I felt FAMU had the best program for me to gain that knowledge."

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
