Netizens of Youtube

         Interested in blogs but tired of reading and scrolling and reading and scrolling until your eyes hurt? I feel you, well, unless I'm really in the mood of reading lengthy blogs.  That's why there's Youtube, where you can view video blogs............or vlogs for short.

         I started watching Ryan Higa (nigahiga on youtube) two years ago, having no idea that what he has been posting for the past 5 or 6 years are called vlogs, Last year, a friend of mine on twitter told me to watch Dan Howell and Phil Lester's videos (danisnotonfire and amazingphil on youtube). After watching their videos, I wanted to explore more about vlogs and people posting videos similar to theirs and I realized that there was wide community of vloggers on Youtube, especially in the United Kingdom and United States.

         Vloggers are people who post videos about their daily lives or things that catch their attention. These people may post videos about travel, DIYs, challenges, rants, embarassing experiences, other vloggers, music and many many more things we can relate to. For teenagers like me who would browse through tons and tons of vlogs during my spare time,  you may recognize these people;





          One thing I love about these vloggers is that they don't make me feel alone with my weird opinions about life and everything in it. They talk about things I am interested in and they definitely lighten up my mood because of their jokes, sarcasm and the discoveries I learn from them. And you have to admit, some of them look quite ravishing too *cough* Jack and Finn Harries *cough*



        I look up to them as inspirations and I hope everyone could gain the confidence that they have in sharing their insights to the world and have the same outgoing personalities as they do, and maybe the world (or world wide web) will be a better place for netizens.
