Hey y'all
So...
Yeah.
Hey y'all, so, sorry for no video last week
I was busy preparing for two family
Christmases and I was just kinda in this messy state.
So... I didn't really have like a festive video planned,
so I just thought, you know, I'd take a week off.
So excuse me for being a bit cheeky.
I'm not really sure if my lighting's good
'cos I'm at my dad's house, but I mean,
location change! Keeping it fresh on my channel.
Now since this video is going up on the first of--
the first day of the new year,
I would firstly like to say, happy new year y'all!
Welcome to 2017.
And secondly, I would like to say that 2016 wasn't that bad.
For me, you know, 2016 was shit, but...
girl
There were still so many good moments for me.
And, for me, I had a choice of
making a video where I rant about all
the bad things that happened this year,
which I'm probably gonna end up making at some point anyway,
or, I make a really positive video.
My friend Claudia made a video about her feelings about 2016,
especially going into 2017.
That kind of summarises what I think of 2016,
so I'll go link her's down below.
I think that it's important to remember all of the
good things that happened this year.
Don't get me wrong, 2016 was tremendously terrible
but I think that there were some good moments in it.
And I want to share some of my good moments from 2016
to...
I don't know, it sounded like a good video idea.
So this is probably one of the happiest if not the happiest
moment for me this year, well in 2016,
and that was going to see Troye Sivan live.
It was a Tuesday and that kind of...
whole week had been like really shitty.
And it wasn't really something that I was planning to go to,
it was more kind of like something which was like very last minute
because, one of my friends, shoutout to you, Sian
you're amazing girl.
One of my friends was like
'Yo, I got two tickets, you wanna have them?'
and I was like, 'oh my God... God bless.'
So I went with Claudia, and it was just an amazing night
that we both shared and that we both experienced,
and everyone in the room felt and experienced,
and it was... I don't know, it's unexplainable.
So another really happy moment of 2016
was when I asked my to-be boyfriend, to be my boyfriend,
and he said yes.
Side note: Girl, he dumped me like a week later
like, whatever
That moment -- it was like, I remember it very clearly,
it was like a Monday... Lunch time?
I was in an English class and we were like messaging like
back and forth, 'cos he lives in the U.S.
And prior to this, we'd been like messaging like non-stop
for like a week.
And this is gonna sound like
really really cliché but, you know
when I asked him, and he said yes,
like, time just like seemed to stop, you know?
I was like, girl, what is this Maui Wowie
that you got me on, like, girl.
But then of course, he, like, dumped me, and stuff,
but I mean, girl.
Like I've kind of come to understand how much
of like a shitty guy he was.
Girl, I cannot deal with that like, girl, just
Bye!
In the words of Titus Andromedon,
Au revoir les felicias
Bye
Another really happy moment for me
wasn't really one that, when I was like
in it and living it and experiencing it
I was like, oh my God, this is so happy.
But one that I look back on fondly...
one that I now look back fondly on...
If that makes any sense.
But it's a memory that makes me happy thinking back on it.
And that was being in my school's production of
"The Tragical History of Dr. Faustus".
Basically it was in a theatre class,
and we all had to choose two areas of stagecraft.
So I chose acting, 'cos, I'm an actor.
And I also chose sound design.
Acting-wise, I played four characters.
I played the Pope, girl I was the gayest pope ever.
A kind of, like... physical embodiment of, like, lust.
Like, the character was called "Lust", and was kind of like a stripper-esque...
Kind of -- girl, I wore fishnets, it was fabulous.
I also played a scholar and a student.
Music-wise, I composed half of the music for the production
and worked with two other super awesome amazing people
to actually, like, make all the sound,
run all the sound, make sure it all worked for the night, etc. etc.
We were basically like a sound team, like, the three of us.
Ooh shit.
But yeah, obviously during -- it was like a few month kind of process,
but especially like those few show nights,
like I think we did a Thursday and a Friday night,
that was really nerve-racking, really stressful.
But looking back on it now,
now that I know that everything worked out well,
I could say that it was one of
the happiest moments -- the happiest experiences of my life.
I really did enjoy working with those people and, I mean
shout out to all of you, and our fabulous teacher, like.
If y'all are watching, girl I love you.
I think I might be giving away my love too easily.
All well.
This is just a side note
and this isn't related anything to anything in this video,
but I've been watching Shadowhunters on Netflix,
it is so fucking good.
It started off like, it was like this
kinda trashy, like, rip-off of like every teen superhero
TV show or film ever,
but it's, like, really developed into this amazing, really good thing.
I really want to read the books that it's based off of.
And oh my God, I am team Malec all the way, like
Malec is like OTP like
I don't think I've ever had a ship that I've wanted so much
since like ever.
Everyone's like, oh, da-da-da and da-da-da,
and I'm like, yeah, okay, I see it, but
M A L E C
is
*orgasms*
Y'all know what I'm talking about, episode 12,
episode 12... Got me in the feels.
Oh my God, I just remembered this other really fun, cheeky moment.
Basically, my friend and I, we went to
this store, this clothing store, where my
other friend works, and they were working there that day,
and basically, my friend and I who had gone there together,
We like -- we like gave a mannequin a make-over,
we like put on new pants for her
like, put on like a top, and oh my God.
We probably embarrassed her so much (the friend that was working there),
but it was so much fun.
And we almost stole, like, a cardboard cut-out,
this giant cardboard cut-out of like this giraffe or something.
But yeah, oh my God,
that was actually so much fun.
I think you get the point of this video, basically...
Obviously, I come from a place of privilege in that
nothing too drastic happened to me this year
I really want to actively try and make a change
and I think that, you know,
this year was -- this year was crap, this year was
fucking terrible, like, fuck mate.
The Aussie bogan's coming out of me, that's how bad it is.
But at the same time, like,
I learned so many things this year
and I experienced so many things this year
I'm finally coming to understand who I am
and I think that it's important to take those things with me into 2017,
I think that we shouldn't just forget 2016 ever happened,
because so many great things did happen this year.
For me at least, 2017 is going to be
a year of fun and happiness,
kindness, and learning and listening
I think most of all, I really want 2017 to be a year of love.
Girl, I'm tearing up.
As everyone else does, I want the world to be
a better place, you know,
I want 2017 to be a great year,
and I'm definitely going to try my fucking hardest,
fuck, try and stop me girl, like
I'm gonna try my fucking hardest to make it
the best year that I possibly can.
And I know life throws a lot of shit in your way,
but I mean, whatever, like.
Girl, what's new?
But anyways, I hope you all have a really happy New Year,
and a happy holidays, a safe holidays.
And I want you to remember to --
*click*
Stay fierce ladies
Bye.
