I'm at a bit of a depressed point in my life. With not a lot of IRL friends and not many places to go (because my parents literally won't let me out of the house), I felt like YouTube was my only purpose. I have lots of ideas for videos, movies and skits as well as decent editing and camera shooting skills but I never put my all into my videos because, well, no one really watches them. It's mostly because I have a hard time finding my audience. When I ask my freinds, "hey did you see my video?" They're just like, " It was cringy, I didn't get the joke" when usually the point is to be cringy and the joke was something they don't understand. Example: My "Beyblade in a nutshell" video. The video is pretty much me dressed up as Takao and Kai and screaming at my beyblades. If you're a beyblade fan you'd probably get the joke, but none of my friends are into beyblade so they don't get the joke. On top of that, I have no one to film with. Last time I tried filming with my brothers, they didn't listen to me and the project ended up in a disaster. I sometimes film with my friends but I don't see them as often anymore. So I'm forced to play multiple people in my skits, but then no one can move the camrea. So I'm essentially stuck between a rock and a hard place. And it sucks. I want to make more movies, better movies, but I can't put all my time into something that only gets 14 veiws, 2 likes and a dislike. Honestly, I've never been one to share my feelings and I really doubt anyone will read this but it was nice to get it off my chest.

You’d meet new people, and maybe you’ll make more friends.
I agree with Dash Driver

I am in swimming but there's not any other sport I want to do. And it still doesn't help my youtube delimma.

And nows the bonds of friendship have been forever created
This is really random but I found out that being in a sport allows you to fish in Instagram followers quickly xD My teammates follow me even though they havent even talked to me
idk if this even counts as random but I tried talking to my ex, and now we are friends again
The raid is coming…
