Hey guys, so we all know about those YouTubers out there, big ones like Smosh, Shane Dawson and Ray William Johnson, and a million more. I don't know how they stand it! I tried to make a video yesterday, it took me like thirteen tries and I still didn't end up keeping that! I don't know if it was me or the camera, but you could barely hear me at all, and I think I was talking pretty loud.
I think I may scrap the whole "vlog" idea, and just stick to blogs. I don't know yet, opinions would be nice, but who am I kidding? When I ask for opinions I never get them from you guys. I don't know why really, I don't think anyone likes the whole blog idea. The most views I've gotten in one day was seven, but generally its one or two. Anyways, it really was not working out too well, but whatever. Someone might care and read these random things.
Before I go, I wanted to share some stuff with you guys. I 'll start the official entertainment section within the next few months but Shane Dawson posted a new video, you can check that out below, and Smosh was in an Epic Meal Time video, which you can view by clicking right here.

Wasting time
Once again, I have been wasting time watching Shane Dawson for hours on end. Normally, I try to keep track, but I have no idea how long its been. I'm guessing somewhere between two or four hours. I don't know, he's really freakin' addictive. I wanted to ask you guys though, would it be cool if I interviewed Shane Dawson? I keep thinking of questions for him, and I did find his email address, so why not? It'd be pretty fucking awesome. I think it'd be a good time, anyways.
He puts me in such a random mood, though I'll admit he's made me cry like three times. One of which, he had me bawling. That was this morning. I'm in a good mood, so I won't go into detail. Let's just say, I watched one of his videos about his grandmother, who has now passed away, and I couldn't take it. It struck a nerve that I try to surpress a lot, but it also does come to the surface. Friends know the story, and do try to keep me away from the subject, because it puts me in a very dark place. Anyways, apart from that, I do really think he's a cool person. Many people are aware that I have been watching him like crazy lately. Not really because I am being an OCD fangirl or anything like that, its for a few reasons. One of them being that he is funny, obviously, or else I wouldn't waste my days watching his videos.
Another reason is, if I ever do get to interview him, I don't think it'd look very good if I don't have a clue what his videos are about. I mean, where are you gonna come up with questions if you don't know the person's material? You kinda have to know it. So, um, I keep thinking of all these random things today, and I am thinking I'm going to start doing a lot next year. Like start making Vlogs or whatever, even though I really doubt they'll be popular. I just was thinking earlier that this year, while its had it's up's and down's has been a great year.
I've gone to two concerts, soon to be three, met one of my favorite people on the planet (Max Green), saw three of my favorite bands this year, and got to meet one of them. Then this Friday, I'll be seeing and meeting another one of my favorites, Mayday Parade. I feel like I've been bragging about that, I'm really sorry, guys, if its seemed like I have been. I just feel so honored getting to do this. How many people get to say they get to go to a concert for one of their favorite bands for free? Plus they get to meet them, again for free, all because they showed great interest in the band as people for the most part? I knew it comes with the job, but its rare when people just starting out get to do this. I don't think people get how truely awesome that is.
Oh, and quick announcement. I still don't have the money for the upgrade for Immortal Music, but I am hoping to get it for Christmas. My grandpa, most years, sends me about $50 for Christmas, and if he does this year I'll use that to get the pro upgrade for the site. It'll last a year, so I am just hoping next year I'll have the money to upgrade again, or else...well I don't know what the fuck I'll do. Once I get that I'll stop posting blogs here.
I'm gonna wrap this up, but seriously, tell me if you like the idea of me interviewing Shane Dawson. Even if you don't, I probably will still try. Also, if you want, think of some people you'd like to see me interview. Comment on that shit. :) Bye, ya'll.

Talking about some deep shit now.
Alright, so anyone who's been on the Facebook page the past few days knows that I have been obessively watching Shane Dawson videos on YouTube. Ususally he's all goofy, and silly, you know? He isn't always like that though, he does have some serious ones. He has one where he talks about his issues with his dad, one about flaws where he quotes Hannah Montana, questioning why you were ever born, and the one I most recently watched, one about bullying and suicide.
It really spoke to me. I don't really know why it spoke to me the way it did, but it did. I think it spoke to me because he opened up on camera to thousands of people. Not only did he tell his story, but he asked about others. He seemed geniune about it too, and honestly, that's rare. Especially on the internet! So many people on the internet seem to be trolling one another, and purposely insulting someone or something. Real life is just like that too, and it shouldn't be like that.
The video I made, is similar to my lyric videos in style, but I do not use lyrics. I used my own words, just trying to reach out to people. I used a very beatiful song, that actually gave me that warm and fuzzy feeling when I first heard it, in the background. The song in it is "I Will Be There" by Art Of Dying, and I used it because it flat out says, "I will be there when nothing works and no one cares." Not a lot of people ever say that, or when they do, they don't mean it. I find that very shameful, because at some point in time, we're all going to need someone.
We're taught as small children, "treat others the way we wanna be treated.", but so many people forgot that golden rule. I've always said my weakness is that I care too much, that's why my theme song is "Scars" by Papa Roach. Everyone knows that, I make it very clear. I try to be that person that's always there for people, and sometimes I'm there even when I don't really wanna be. I don't know why really, I guess I just try to make up for those who aren't like that without really thinking about it.
In the video I made, I made sure to tell people that if they wanted, they can even talk to me about stuff. I said on YouTube, but even on Facebook or email. I want to make a difference, which, as I've mentioned before is why I am going into the music journalism business. It makes myself happy, helps out the bands, and could possibly save someone's life. Music is my escape, and it is for many others too. Someone's heart and soul goes into most songs, and if you listen carefully, you can tell.
Um...so that's kinda why I made the video. I coulda made an actual video of me talking, but I feel I get my point across better if I write instead of talk. That and I was too lazy to make a video. If you haven't seen Shane's video, go watch it. Or I guess you could click right here to watch Shane's video, or right here to watch mine. Shane's is better, obviously. There you go, there you have it. Maybe I'll actually get around to making videos. I don't know, that still makes me a bit nervous. I'm not sure how I feel about it. People should tell me what they think. I mean, I'm a boring person, so I don't even know what the fuck I'd talk about.

I feel like I have been so lazy this afternoon!
Its only like one o'clock and I feel like I've been so damn lazy its not even funny. Maybe that's because I just wasted like two hours watching Shane Dawson videos. I seriously feel like I should pick up the camera and just start making videos, maybe you guys would actually pay attention to those!
I kinda think nobody wants to read and that's why nobody pays attention to my blogs. For that matter, I'm not even certain more than like two people read the music news on Immortal Music. Anyways, so I was watching Shane Dawson earlier, and normally I don't watch him. I saw one video sometime last year and thought it was the stupidest thing ever. I remember telling my friend who told me to watch him that he was hot as hell but not at all funny. I guess I was just watching the wrong video, as I checked out his ShaneDawsonTV2 channel, and laughed my fucking ass off.
The video that ultimately got me to change my mind was "Gay kiss with Shane Dawson", and I originally clicked on it because I was like, "Ok, there's a ton of gay rumors about him, but he denies it so much. Why would there be a video of him kissing a dude?" I figured it'd be a fake out video, where it comes close, but then doesn't happen. I won't ruin the video for it, you can check it out on the Music = Life page on Facebook, or on Shane's ShaneDawsonTV2 account. Just something he does in the video made me crack up so much I watched it twice in a row, and I never do that! I never even do that for Smosh, who I adore.
SPEAKING OF SMOSH, (like my segway there?), they're doing a contest to fly you and two people out to Califorina to meet them and be in an episode of Lunchtime With Smosh. If you don't know what Lunchtime With Smosh is, you're a loser. Just kidding, but seriously, you're missing out. It can be found on Ian's channel, IanH. That is also where they post videos for "Ian Is Bored", which is really just Mailtime with Smosh, and the videos where Mari talks about articles they post on the Smosh Pit on Smosh.com.
Somewhere below this text, there is a link to the video about Smosh's contest. The contest is called For Breakout Contest and is sponsered by X Out acne cream. Honestly, who cares who's sponsering it? Its Smosh, they're fucking awesome. Go check out the video, and the rest of their videos.
The basic rules of the contest are simply. Build a fort and make a three minute (or less) video of you breaking out of it. The most creative wins, and only people thirteen to eighteen can enter. That part kind of sucks, as I know for sure that people older than eighteen would kill to make a fort just so they can destroy it and then meet Smosh. I do plan on entering, and I am barely able to enter, seeing as I am eighteen.
I love how this started as me talking and ended with me reporting about a few YouTube stars. See? This is why I need an entertainment section! This way I can talk about the random videos I watch for no real reason at all, and I can say its for my site. Yay for excuses to waste my day on Youtube? No, oh you're no fun. Oh wait, someone just nodded in front of the computer? Sweetness, high five person!
That would have been far less stupid had that not been all typed out...two things on my Christmas list: my own camera, and my own computer. Two very needed things.
All joking aside, go check out Smosh and Shane Dawson. On the off chance Shane will ever see this, I am sorry I wrongly judged you. That was not fair at all, but I've never once been a hater, so that's an upside!
I have no idea why I just added that last part, I know he'll NEVER see this.
