I'm a Failure

Hello! My name is Emma, and I'm a failure. I'm not a failure at life. I'm not even a failure at most things in my life. I'm a failure at vlogging. Vlogging, for those of you who don't know, is a combination between the words "video" and "blogging". Basically, what you do is set up a camera and tell your feelings to it, then, you edit out the awkward parts where you said "um" twenty times, and finally, upload it to YouTube (or Flikr or Twitter or Tumblr or whatever).

I'm a frequent YouTuber. I'm subscribed to several people, many of whom would be classified as vloggers. A while back I decided I wanted to be a vlogger too. This is where the failure comes in. I made an introductory video where I just talked about myself, and it was at this point I realized how awkward and shockingly uninteresting I was in front of the camera (And it was truly shocking because believe me, I'm normally a very interesting person). But I kept at it! I did get better at talking louder and being more animated and not so boring. One of my biggest problems was simply organizing my thoughts and what I wanted to say. I solved this problem by writing an outline that I would look at in between the clips that I filmed, but it still wasn't enough. There was always this clip where I made a weird face, or this one where I said that in a weird way. So now I've quit. Because on top of all that stuff, those videos take up SO MUCH ROOM! And when I have tons of videos clogging up my hard drive I can't play my favoritest (yes, I know that's not an actual word) computer game ever: Sims 2!

So anyways, I'm a failure because I can't vlog. But I'm okay with that, because I tried it, and it was interesting, and now I'm moving on. That's why I started this blog! I really like to write, and people tell me I'm good at it (I like to think I'm good at it). So I thought, "Duh! You idiot! Just write a normal blog!" I don't have to worry about the organization thing or the I-don't-like-this-part thing because I have as much time as I want to edit my posts, I don't have worry about talking coherently (because I'm sometimes really bad at that), and I don't have to worry about putting on make-up! Hooray!

This is the start of something beautiful. XD
