I remember back to the end of 2014 (it was literally in that short of a time this has all happened!) when one of my friends told me to check out Zoella's YouTube channel. That was when I first realized "oh, funny animal videos aren't the only thing on YouTube, some people actually do this as a thing". Since then I expanded my subscription list to many of the other YouTubers, with my favourites including Danisnotonfire, Connor Franta and Shaaanxo. With the help of these wonderful people, I began to see a boost in my self confidence and esteem. YouTube has definitely made me a happier person :)
2. I have a weird music taste
Okay, just remember that I know my music style is unusual, so just roll with it, all right?
Here are a couple of my favourite artists:
- My Chemical Romance
- R5
- Taylor Swift
- Little Sea
3. I have been bungee jumping
Oh. My. God. When my family and I went to New Zealand we made a quick stop to watch the crazy people who threw their body off a bridge, trusting a rope with their life. I then made a sarcastic joke about wanting to give it a try, however my family are a little slow on the sarcasm band wagon and thought I was being serious. Being kinda stubborn, I played along with it and THE VERY NEXT DAY I threw my body off a bridge, trusting a rope with my life.
Fun fact: I was 12
4. I like to pretend I'm organised
So here's my typical afternoon: While sitting on the bus on the way home from school, I make a quick list of how I will productively spend my afternoon, right down to setting time limits, in order to be prepared for the next day. However, when I get home I usually just spend the afternoon sleeping and watching YouTube :)
5. My cat loves playing on my iPad
6. I don't have a favourite movie
Gasp! It's not that I don't like them or don't watch them, it's more like I just love so many movies I would feel weird choosing just one, you know?
7. I love photography
I find that taking pictures is actually really relaxing and gives me a sense of accomplishment and pride if I like how a picture turns out. Yeah yeah, so I might look weird standing on a chair in a restaurant trying to capture that perfect angle, but it will be all worth it when you see the final product. Here's a pic I took in the position I just described:
8. I love being healthy
Haha, I used to laugh along with my family when I first said I would try to become healthy, but I feel like it has made a really positive change in my life. By being healthy, I mean treating my body right with eating, exercise and sleeping as well as mentally and emotionally. Maybe I'll do a post on Top Ten Ways To Be Healthy?
9. I am a DIY lover
OMG, if I had a dollar for every time I had decided to randomly make something just for fun I could afford a high rise apartment in NYC.
10. I love alone time
When I'm home alone, I usually...
- Throw a dance party
- Sing really loudly
- Watch YouTube without headphones (gasp!)
- Eat ice-cream
- Have a bubble bath
