Saturday

I'm sat in front of Soccer Saturday on sky sports news atm and for the third football weekend running, we're playing on a Sunday. I hate playing on Sunday, It ruins my Saturday, yes I'm watching Soccer Saturday but I want to care and how can I when we don't play. Plus we're shit on Sunday's, we seem to always lose.

I'm planning to upload the video I made for Dale's collaboration very soon. I want to upload it now but everyone's off at that gathering and I'm not sure it's worth uploading until tomorrow. We'll see. But for the first time since the QYC video, I actually think this video is feature worthy, in fact more so than the QYC video because it's under 2 minutes long. I have high hopes but knowing my luck, I doubt it will get featured. I'll draw the editors attention to it, hopefully he'll look and maybe I'll get lucky.

Why do I want to be featured? I think when you see people around you getting featured and gaining a fanbase, It kinda reminds you that it's very difficult and more so when you don't have looks going for you. I would like to gain enough popularity on youtube to gain opportunities that others around are getting. Just having a meeting with a production company to me is exciting and confirms youtube's worth to me. I don't want fame, but I do want some excitement and opportunities, whether I would take them or not, I don't know. I think ultimately I just feel like being featured would complete a good year on youtube.

Maybe 2009 can be the year I take what I've gained from youtube in to my everyday life and start to create some opportunies for myself there. I don't want a year of youtube dominating my life. As fun as it's been, and as great as meeting new friends has been, I want a balance between online life and real life in 2009 and who knows, maybe I'm finally heading in the right direction.
