Wow, it's been a LONG time since I've updated this blog. I think that I didn't really know where to go with it back when I started, and it's a shame that it's been wasting away so long.
But no more!
Since I've been uploading videos to my YouTube channel regularly, I've found myself wanting to express the thoughts that didn't quite make it into my videos, so that's what I plan to do here....as well as ramble aimlessly from time to time...post some pretty pictures...talk about nonsense. I guess we'll just have to see where this thing goes!
So, if you've watched any of my YouTube videos, you'll notice a few things. The first, is that my videos are almost always OUT OF FOCUS. I've tried to make sure I focus the camera correctly before I film, but I must not be very good at it, because every single video comes out slightly out of focus. As a full-time Mommy and dedicated girlfriend, I don't find myself with a lot of extra time to sit down and re-film an entire video. I typically film my videos at the crack of dawn, when the sun is first coming up (the sun is currently my main light source for my videos) and my daughter is still asleep. I edit them at night when I put her to bed. As you can see, there isn't a lot of time set aside for the process, but I still think that a little bit of out of focus footage isn't that big of a deal. Of course, I'm not saying I'd like for this pattern to continue, because I'd love to have gorgeous, crispy clear video like everyone else. I just have to work on it.
Lately, I've been putting up a lot of chatty videos, because that's what I enjoy doing. I use YouTube as an outlet the same way a person might use a journal. Believe me, I've tried to write in a journal, but I always find myself feeling uninspired once I start writing, and I'm awful at keeping up with it. However, I've posted a few "rant" videos already, with another one scheduled for this Wednesday, so I'm hoping to film something a little more lighthearted and fun soon. Nate has agreed to participate in some of my videos, so we may attempt a challenge or tag of some type. Really, I'm still quite new to this all, so patience is greatly appreciated.
Thank you SO much for coming to check in on my blog, I'll do my best to begin updating this regularly. If you get bored, check out some of my videos and leave some comments to chat with me!
