5 Things I've Learned Running A Fan Account
Hannah Thomason

One of my best friends convinced me around a year ago to make a fan account on the app Ifunny. I made it at the time for a show called Red vs Blue by roosterteeth and it has since developed into a rainbow six siege account. I love that account because it has brought to me some of my closest friends today and has shown me an amazing side of the internet.

1. With effort, you can grow

It took me awhile but on my own account, I am at 338 subs for my main and 300 for my other. This is awesome to me since I have no issues being a small account. My best friend that got me into this is at 968 and her account is still growing! She makes amazing edits and interacts with all her fans.

2. You make amazing friends

Some of my best friends I have met because of my account. These are amazing people that I know I can always count on. I joke on my account that I need to take a US tour with Jade to meet all our fans and some actually are trying to meet up with us.

3. Recognition does happen

It is really weird when you're out minding your own business and someone yells your account name. Especially when you aren't that popular. That happened to me when walking around Milwaukee once. The fan lives here and he has actually become one of my friends. He knows all the good places to eat.

4. You can be yourself

Running the account means I can do it how I want. I prefer to not be fake on mine and let my personality show a lot. This is awesome for when posting art or cosplays because you can share it with people who like the same things.

5. People are so supportive

Whether it's of your art, cosplay, or edits your subs support you a lot. When I started streaming video games I absolutely sucked at it but my subs supported me and helped me become so much better at it. We form our own little community with these profiles and it is absolutely amazing

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
