Why I really wish I could vlog as well as blog.

I spend a lot of my time watching various people on YouTube. As a fun fact, I'm subscribed to 159 channels, with a combination of gaming channels, skit type channels, music channels and vlog channels. Nothing makes me happier though than seeing my favourite vloggers upload something.

I don't know why I like it so much. It just feels like a snapshot of somebody's life that you wouldn't know otherwise, and it is generally thrilling. I like it a lot.

As for why I can't do it, I'm painfully awkward in front of a camera. In fact, anyone who just knows me through the internet, they'd be shocked to meet me in real life, because I just find talking impossible. I'm just... awkward.

I really, really wish I could vlog.

Proof I'm probably actually crazy.

Did you know as well as planning my wedding, as can be seen in the post here, I also have a general idea about what I want done at my funeral?

Don't get me wrong, I know that's a little crazy. Also, how can someone who has never even been to a funeral know what they want done at theirs? However, I do. I have some ideas. Not down the very last detail, but there are a few definites.

1) Elliott Smith music be played. This should not come as a surprise, but I think it still needs to be stated. Specifically "A Fond Farewell", a live version of "No Name #1" that I really liked (fun fact for people who aren't fans of him- he wrote 6 songs with the name "No Name #_"), and "No Confidence Man". At the very least those, with every single other song to be considered.

2) I don't want people all sadface over me, mostly because that'd make me feel bad. So everyone has to wear purple, because it's my favourite colour, and if they really were doing it for me...

3) Chocolate. Pizza. Cake. That is all.

My wedding will be the best type of wedding.

I have officially planned out my wedding completely.


I was always the type who never wanted to have kids, which I still don't. But I still want to get married, just to say I am. The benefits of being married definitely may have something to do with it to. But to say I've been the type to plan out their wedding down to the very last detail would most definitely be wrong.

Until now.


I have decided I want my wedding to be Mario themed. I've got it all worked out, too.

I will be dressed as Princess Peach. My husband will be Mario. I think that part was easiest to work out.


My maid of honour will be Princess Daisy. I haven't decided who is actually my maid of honor, but they must be prepared to dress up as Daisy. My bridesmaid will be Toadette, and I haven't decided who else. There are definitely a few minor female characters I could pull from, mainly Queen Rosalina.

The best man will of course be Luigi, with the other groomsman being Toad, and with many options on others that could be used.

The guy who conducts the wedding (I don't know what you call this guy. A minister? It's not a priest, no religion in my wedding) will dress as Bowser. And the wedding will be in, yes, Bowser's Castle. As will the reception.

Super excited.

A brief introduction, or something like that.

Hey there everyone! I'm Brae, or as some people call me, Kyi. Or even as another group of people call me, Kali! I've got all sorts of names, it's like a box of magical surprise. Which is sort of what this blog is going to be!

We were supposed to set these up for the creative writing class I'm taking right now. However, that idea was annexed for a variety of silly reasons, something about "FOIP." I don't know what that is, and I don't particularly care, other than I already had set up my blog and wanted to be able to do something with it. So, this was born.

This is mostly as I said before, going to be a mismatch of whatever is going on in my mind at the moment. A combination of some of my own writing, just some rants, whatever that is floating around in my mind- you name it, it'll show up at some point.

I decided to start out with one of the obligatory "Hi, my name is *blank* and I enjoy *blank*. Sort of like those name games you had to play on the first day of every year back in elementary school, only a bit more high tech, and probably a little bit less personal. We've got the name covered, so I guess I'll jump in on elaborating what sort of things I do.

First off, as I'm sure was evident by now, I adore the internet. I genuinely feel it's one of the greatest things people have right now. I like YouTube, I like social networking (Hi there, Twitter!), I like sharing my thoughts with whoever would like to hear them. I'm also a huge fan of writing. It's one of the few things that has stayed as a constant hobby for me throughout my life, ever since I could spell my name. It's the only career that I ever dreamed of ever being able to have a future in. Generally, it's the only way I get the massive jumble of ideas I have sorted into a way that makes sense.

Anyway, that's it for now, and thanks so much for anyone who just stumbled into here and decided to stay- it means a lot!
