I Survived!

Remember a few months back when I posted about my LP? Well do I have amazing news or what? My darling mother has solved the problem. She bought me a replacement laptop that I just switched the hard drives and I was good to go. This is awesome. I'm still getting used to typing on a laptop keyboard again, but  is that a first world problem or what? Also...the new laptop is pink. :) And that makes me very happy because it is an adorable pink. 

So I have a lot of things to do today. I have to edit my video on the concert that Caroline and I went to...a month ago, and I have to script the video that I want to film with my brother when he comes into town which is tonight. I mean, I'm not going to film it tonight but it would be nice if I knew what was going to occur in the video before I do film it. Yeah. 

Caroline and I have been playing Super Mario Brothers Wii a lot lately, and I have discovered two things: a) that I should have really played the hand-me-down Mario video games that I got from my brother, and b) Caroline gets really angry when she plays video games. 

I'm going to put the footage that we took of us playing video games up on YouTube some day, and by some day, I mean that I'll put it in a Scrapbook style vlog some time in the future. 

I'm participating in the Nerdfighteria Blurbing Book Club this year and we are reading Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. John and Hank chose this book for two reasons: a) in honor of Ray Bradbury's death, and b) because Fifty Shades of Grey which is "basically Twilight fanfiction turned into a novel" has sold more copies than Bradbury did during his entire life. 

So yes. That's what is going on. Bye Internet.

Thoughts On VidCon

So...VidCon...that's a thing that happened. =)

I still cannot believe that this weekend actually happened! It was so awesome (as in the actually definition of instilling awe). I met John and Hank Green and they are truly two of the most lovely people on this earth. Also on Day 1 of VidCon, I met Jenna Marbles. She is also extremely sweet.

On Day 2 of VidCon I ended up on a line, completely by accident, that was to meet Charlie McDonnell. (and Michael Aranda) Charlie is just...adorable. He called my ukulele cool because it has a dolphin on it. Later on I met Laci Green on the elevator and she was also really really nice.

Speaking of people that I made he acquaintance of whist on the elevator, I also ran into Tom Milsom, Frezned, and Michael Aranda more times than I can count.

I met Hayley Hoover (hayleyghoover) while I was in the courtyard outside of the convention center after attending the Footy Pajama Meetup organized by Kristina Horner and Lex.

On the line to meet Charlie, I met three very nice girls :Kaitlin, Jordan (jordanthecake) and Kylie. That was nice.

So VidCon was amazing and I cannot wait until next year when Julia can hopefully come with me to Anaheim.

I'm sitting in the Long Beach Airport (LGB) waiting for my flight which was just delayed for an hour...=(

Okay Internet, the next time we will speak is when I'm in a different timezone, so.. Bye.
