Supernatural Party of Awesome

Soooooooo... last night a bunch of incredibly awesome people gathered in an incredibly awesome place for incredibly awesome reasons...
It was a celebration of our friendship. A friendaversary, if you will.
We did not all meet on the exact same day, but it's all connected. So and so met so and so who knew whats-her-face and such. And through that, we have all become friends. Sadly, not all of us could be together on this joyous occasion, simply because we don't all live in the same country. But those who came are awesome and I am so glad to have them in my life.

In honour of this friendaversary, I thought I would share the greatest video in existence and link you to the website from whence it came. Relevant because upon first meeting my pal Lisa, I forced her to watch it and babbled quite endlessly about its hilariosity and greatness. So... here.


Also, watch my new video about last night, too kay? :)



  • Some of the best moments/quotes/tweets of last night.


  • "Jared's naked and I need a boyfriend."

  • "Sam on stripper pole. Yes please."

    "You must be at least six feet to enjoy this ride ;)"

  • "instead of talking to each other they are all tweeting eachother"

    "PORN."

  • "ooow my hair hurts!"

  • "Steak in my pants"

    "why did they break up?"..."because he shot her in the face"

    "she's not drunk, but she can't get it in." ... "that's what she said."

    "there's this huge red hunka chunka thing..."

    "the sword goes inside." "...that's what she said."

    "we're so shallow! And dirty! Its like a kiddie pool in here!"




    I love you guys. All of you.

ohhmygawdomgomgomgomgggg

It's been a long while, blogger.
I'm sorry for that.
I could sit here and give you a long list of reasons and/or excuses as to why that is but, let's skip that gub and get right on to the usual rambling.

So, VEDJ has generally been kicking my ass this month. It's quite a lot of work to make a video every day, and while I certainly enjoy it, I do start to wonder about the quality of what I produce. Although, it doesn't really matter because I vlog about the same general stuff I did before, only much more frequently. Thoughts have crossed my mind of extending this project to -attempt- to make videos every day from now until... infinity. But such thoughts were quickly vanquished from my brain as I realized I'm just far too lazy for that. Although, I do intend to make videos much more often. Weekly themed videos (ie, the Alphabetically Me segment I have been doing on Tuesdays) and sporadic ones in between. I'm thoroughly enjoying my time on YouTube. It's such a fun hobby, and ultimately I feel good doing it. It makes me smile. I hope to continue to make videos, whether anyone watches them or not. Because that isn't why I do it. I don't make videos to please other people, I don't go around begging for subscribers. I make videos for three main reasons a) I'm bored b) I like to talk to myself, about myself and c) It makes me feel good. Confident. Happy. and I like that.

Also, I suppose I should mention, that I got my braces this week. Monday, the 17th, I went down, sat uncomfortably in a chair, with a strange apparatus holding my mouth open and my tongue away from where they were attaching the braces, for approximately an hour and a half. What fun! Oh, and then, they decided to tell me I will soon need teeth removed to "achieve the look that I'm after" Really? I call bullshit. I was never informed of even the vague possibility of tooth removal and what "look" are you talking about? I never asked for any "look" I just want this damn overbite fixed. Nothing more, thanks. We are waiting to hear back from my orthodontist to determine whether or not this tooth removal business is mandatory. I'd rather skip it, if that's at all possible....
Oh, right. I was talking about braces! Well, they're on there. Uhh, well, the bottom ones anyway. The top set don't get put on until next month. Silly, I know, but that's how they planned it. They've so far been quite irritating and difficult to get used to. Little things I didn't realize I did or would be a potential problem are starting to become painful and unpleasant. Eating is a bit of a chore. Food selection is so limited, due to being unable to chew much (ouch! painful!) as well as allergies. And then of course, swallowing is the worst part. Have you ever tried swallowing without allowing any portion of your tongue to touch your teeth? Try it. It ain't easy. And it's not nearly as noticeably difficult for you, since you don't have hunks of pointed metal just sitting there, waiting to stab away at the soft flesh.
But I know they are a necessary evil, however unpleasant they may be, it will be worth it in the end to look in the mirror, smile and be happy with the smile I see.

This is just a wall o' text tonight! I do apologize! For that, and for my lack of updates on a regular basis. I have been spending all my time over on Youtube, Tumblr, and obsessively watching Gilmore Girls. I'm very busy and important! xD

Alright, well enough about me. (who the hell else would I be talking about? It's my blog!)
I shall now go struggle to floss and brush my aching teeth (did I mention they were aching? oh yes, the lovely pressure of the metal is quite dandy!) and curl up to a few episodes of good ol' GG. I've just started season six, and am very upset. Lorelai and Rory are currently not on speaking terms and because I identify with their relationship so much, it hurts me on a deep, meaningful level that I don't expect you to understand. (lawl, jk, I'm feeling pompous tonight.)

Sweet Germany, I just wrote another wall o' text!
So sorry! xD

GOODNIGHT.
FO REAL THIS TIME.






*edit*
oh shitballs, I forgot to tell you what page I'm on in Harry Potter!

VEDJ and random thoughts


So, as most of you probably know, I've decided to partake in Video Every Day in January.
It's been a lot of fun so far, but I'm only four days in and I'm starting to really freak myself out. What in the hell am I going to make videos about for the next 27 days?!
This thought hadn't occurred to me before because I thought I had it in the bag with Alphabetically Me, but now.... Ack!!
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Otherwise, things are just fine and dandy in Racheland.
I'm working on getting a second job, as I've decided I want to go to VidCon this year. VidCon is essentially a YouTube convention. It'll be held in LA at the end of July and so, I have to save up quite a bit of money to get myself there...
If you know of anywhere that's hiring, do let me know! (especially if they pay more than $9 an hour)
I'm saving all my coinages as well, so if you happen to have any spare change you wanna toss my way... ;)

I've also gotten back into Gilmore Girls recently.
And I've gotta admit -- I'm starting to fall for Logan.
Stupid charming, snarky blonde boy with good bone structure and attractive voice.
Impossible to resist!
I've also been listening to a lot of Eddplant lately. Particularly "Hush" it's such a beautiful song. Of course, "You're Not There" is wonderful, too.
Oh yes, and Laura and I have had much discussion about an upcoming project which I am very excited for and can't wait to share with you all! But, not until VEDJ is done... whew.
I'm also working on a few other creative projects of my own, which I may or may not share eventually... we'll see.
Aaaaaaaannnd, I went to see Tangled recently. I loveloveloved it. Great characters, cute little story, memorable songs and an overall wonderful feel. I highly suggest you go see it.

Alright, enough of me wasting your time.
I'm off to watch Criminal Minds/Gilmore Girls/Big Wolf On Campus. I haven't decided yet...



I took this picture on New Years Day. It makes me smile.
