RBADDK (Yup, that just happened)

I'm back! It's been too long, I know, and I'm pretty sure I'm pretty rusty. Oh well... Here we go:

-Big life choices suck. I liked it much better when things just happened. Turns out eventually you have to make them happen.

-I think I broke the BYU basketball team for a night. A couple days after I shook Jimmer and Charles Abouo's hand, they lost by 20. I blame myself and I've since repented.

-I don't know if I'm just trying to watch Psych on Netflix on peak Porn watching hours or what, but QWEST internet is really starting to get on my nerves. "Your internet connection speed has changed.." Well, make it stop. I'm pretty sick of having to reload my TV show over and over again. Aren't we passed the days of slow internet?


-I've stopped watching GLEE pretty much completely. I'm sure there are some great moments still, but I cannot deal with the horrid lip-synching. Honestly, how hard is it to not suck at lip-synching? Apparently pretty hard for former (and probably future) broadway stars.

-Speaking of broadway, seeing Nick Jonas sing in a legitimate broadway show makes me question the sanity of mankind


-I'm currently being forced to learn if I am allergic to Cats by Cat-mersion. Meaning, we are watching after a friends cat until he has time to come up and move her down with him and the damn cat has decided my room is where she should sleep.

-Someone should tell this thing I'd pet it more if it didn't drool every time I touched it.

-I spend a whole lot of time on YouTube. I don't know what it is, but watching people's day to day lives fascinate me.. and Hundreds of thousands of other people it appears. Some of these people are making over 6 figures a year from posting YouTube videos. Here's a list of a few of my favorties:

~The Shaytards: Just a sweet, young, Mormon family from Idaho that has taken YouTube by storm. They are closing in on 800,000 subscribers. CRAZY.
~Arturo Treo: Another little Mormon family, this one from Vegas. He only posts 1-2 videos a week. This is less of a Vlog, but his family is super cute and he's out of control (in a good way).
~Charles Trippy and Ali Fun little Vlog. Super nice people form Florida with a bunch of followers.
~Philip DeFranco: He's the first person I subscribed to on YouTube. He just gives his uncensored opinion on the news and whats happening in the world. Caution: Strong Language
~KassemG: Dude is hilarious, but he's all about the shock value. If you don't like dirty humor, he's not for you
~Wheezywaiter: Dude is so odd, but he's very clever. He posts a few times a week and is always entertaining. (The last few videos of him are not as good as his normal ones... click back a few videos to see his style)
~Dave Ackerman: A local comedian (who I was an Ambassador at USU with). He's just getting started on YouTube and I think he's got a pretty good product. He's also the OraBrush tongue which is pretty rad.
~ourlittleplanet This couple is pretty new on YouTube and not popular at all. But watching them interact is pretty great. I just started watching them a week or so ago.

-It turns out YouTube is so much more than just a place to watch viral videos.

-Speaking of, I'm again thinking about moving to New York and I want to start a daily Vlog to document my experience. I already have a youtube channel with nothing posted on it yet... but it's rearing for some love. I can't guarantee I'll consistently be funny, but I can guarantee I'd say some dumb things. Heres the boring link thestarvingactor Would you watch?
