Hey guys, guess what! I am in a band. Fancy that! I have never been so deeply into music that I would join a band, but I admit I have always had fantasies about it. James Bone asked me to be the keyboardist in his band, and I had no reason not to so I said yes. He showed me how to play a song today. The transitions are kind of tricky to remember but the chords are pretty simple. I think this will be fun. Challenging though, because even though I am fairly good at keyboard/piano it still does not come to me like painting does.

The lease is almost up and there is a lot of talk about what the four of us are going to do. We will probably be splitting off when it comes to living arrangements but not when it comes to friendships. James and Amanda broke up but I don’t know if that’s permanent or not. I am not entirely sure what’s going on with them. James and I are still together though, and are still going to live together when the lease is up.

I created a new character in MapleStory. I researched the game on wiki and read about the best way to make your character strong. I was doing my former character all wrong, so I just started over. Now I have a character named Tocata. She is already level 17. She could be higher but I spend too much time sitting in Henesys and Amoria watching people talk. Also, people keep stopping and telling me my character is ugly because she has green hair and a unique set of eyes that nobody else in the game has. I think she’s cute though. I set it up so that whenever James and I are together in the game, pink hearts erupt. See:

Some guy and his online gf has been following me around the game for a week insulting me. When he saw James and I together he laughed at us and suggested our babies would be “grey.” Hahaha. I think that’s the best racist-like comment I’ve ever gotten.

On another note, I recently purchased a couple of movies. Don Juan and Basquiat. Two movies I enjoyed immensely years ago and was finally able to purchase. Not only that, but Don Juan was only $5 and Basquiat was only $10! Wonderful wonderful wonderful.

– little petty rant –

Some people try to tell me I don’t really love my parents or they don’t love me because James is black (but if you want to get technical, he’s not black. He’s part black, part white, and part native american. So chew on that a while will ya). Some people try to tell me the decisions I’ve made are bad, and some people try to tell me how my life is going to end up. All of this is so foolish. Many of my viewers are under the impression that they know [everything about] me. To be honest, none of my viewers do. Except some of the people who know me “irl” and watch my videos. I have so many personal details about my life that I keep from my youtube viewers. Only a select few of my viewers know a select few of my secrets. You don’t know way more than you know. So don’t try to figure out my life, okay?

– end little petty rant –

This blog is good for occasionally sending out a message to my viewers. I don’t like to talk about the negative comments in my videos, because that’s not what my videos are about. My videos are supposed to be fun, positive fun. So that’s why I use this thing sometimes. Some people get wound up over the most trivial things. Relax and recognize my videos for what they are: Some 18 year old girl sitting in front of her computer in her spare time talking to a camera. For those of you who do enjoy my videos for what they are, thank you! I get so excited whenever I see a “so and so has subscribed to your videos” in my inbox.

Now if you’ll excuse me I am going to spend far too much time on forums while talking to Natalie, and then I am going to play Sims for far too many hours. Then I am going to head to bed at a semi-decent time because I have to work tomorrow.

Love,

Emily
