Every now and then people ask me, why? What is the point of becoming a YouTuber or even trying? You know it is all luck based right?

Sure. I know these things but it doesn't mean I don't enjoy recording, and trying to make people laugh. So I put together a small list of reasons I am choosing to work towards making youtube my full-time job.


1. I enjoy making people laugh.







Although, I tend to be very awkward and have a very dark sense of humor, I love to make other people laugh or smile. It is my favorite thing to do. I live to entertain others even if it is due to my own misery. I like to see someone smile after they have had a terrible day. That is all I need to put a smile on my face or to make me feel better!


2. I like being in front of the camera.

I have always enjoyed selfies, or recording strange videos with friends. Pulling pranks or being ridiculous. This all probably stemmed from me starting to watch shows like Jackass from a younger age (14), and being in front of camera acting like a fool seemed like fun to me. Although at this point I only create vlogs or gaming videos. I am sure more than just those are bound to happen.


3. I enjoy gaming.












Gaming is one of the types of videos I enjoy doing. For one reason only, video games are one of my favorite hobbies. I have played video games since I can remember and was young. It will forever hold a special place in my heart. Gaming is very big on youtube as well, which is helpful to me cause hey, I enjoy being a gamer!


4. Editing is sorta fun.

I have began editing my videos with a new program and enjoy it a lot more now. Editing is fun to do for me, because I can get creative and be different. I love being able to see what options I have through editing to make better content. Although at times it can be frustrating, I still enjoy it.

5. I have always looked up to YouTubers.









Since early in my high school career, youtube was always well known. Many people made a living creating for youtube and I always watched tons of them. They were all funny people who did what they loved. I look up to them, as that is something you have to work very hard towards and to be able to make a living off that, is amazing.

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!
