Favourite YouTubers

Hiya!

I've been thinking about the few years that I've been watching videos on YouTube, and thinking about the videos I mainly watch now.

I, like every other teenage girl, started off obsessed with Zoella, Joey Graceffa, Grace Helbig...all those cute vloggers who look gorgeous and have amazingly awesome lives. I used to watch every single video and fangirl over their prettiness.

Don't get me wrong, I still do love those YouTubers. And they're still pretty :)

But now, I've found myself moving towards the gamers and can get so absorbed in Pewdiepie playing 'Catherine' or Markiplier the 'king' of 'Five Nights at Freddy's'. I have absolutely no idea why, but my views have shifted.

Once I was watching a Markiplier video, and a boy told me I "don't seem like the type of person to watch his videos".

Now, what the hell is that supposed to mean?

Is it because I'm a girl? Because I'm too fragile and delicate to be watching 'Five Night's at Freddy's' videos? Because I'm supposed to love makeup tutorials and girly outfit lookbooks?

*sigh*

Pewdiepie wouldn't be at almost 39 million subscribers if all his Bros were guys.

Just saying.

Wow, I have no idea where this post was going, and where it went tbh.

I love you

Joey Graceffa's Music Video - 'Don't Wait'

Ok, quick update because I just have to...

Joey Graceffa.

One of the first YouTubers I subscribed to just came out in the most gorgeous music video ever. It's absolutely amazing!

Check out Joey's music video below, in which there's a bit of cheeky tongue action!
(I'm British, couldn't help it [sorry]) 

It's been years since the first video of his that I watched, and I am so utterly proud of him. And my respect towards him is sky high now - it takes so much courage and is so draining living life hiding away.

I mean, I'm no good with sentimental words and expressing myself. To be honest, I'm speechless.  I'm not like those people who gush wonderful things about him in the comments, I don't have the best words to describe what I'm feeling.

But I can tell you that I'm so proud of him. Yes, it's a common thing to say...I 'stole' this from more than 4.5 million people...but it's the truth. Him coming out was so brave and done in the most perfect and creative manner. I'm glad that he has overcome his monsters, and in doing so has probably inspired many others to do the same. To live so much of your life being teased for who you are, and to overcome the struggles whilst still remaining true to yourself- that's one of the most admirable things.

The video itself is pure perfection. The storyline is personal to Joey, with many references to his mum's alcoholism, bullying and obviously the scrumptious gay smooch at the end, but it's also kinda generic and relevant to everyone. It's about finding yourself and not letting others dictate your life, about overcoming monsters, both inner and outer.

It's just the most perfect thing.

Anyway, sorry if I bored you if YouTube isn't your thing, I just really had to talk about this. YouTube means a lot to me ('too much' is more accurate!) and I have those few original YouTubers who I've stuck with since my first discovery - Joey being one of them.

I know this isn't a great post - as I said, me and writing about feelings isn't a great mix. I had to try though ;)

I have to go now - I spent way too long trying to write this

I love y'all, and goodbye!

And remember:

Don't wait!
