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.
