Youtube daily report May 3 2018

Hello and welcome to the WrestleTalk News - I'm Oli Davis, and when I don't have

a beard, I look like a 14 year old boy.

A muscular, handsome 14 year old boy, sure.

But a 14 year old boy nonetheless.

Braun Strowman Chin REVEALED!

Which is just another way I'm like Braun Strowman, who has shared an almost decade

old clean shaven photo of himself on Instagram: "Alright so a buddy of mine sent me this

so I had to do a #waybackwednesday post this is me believe it or not 9 years ago!!!!!

#IdontKnowIfTimeHasBeenThatGreatToMeLOL #BabyFaceBeforeIKnewWhatABabtFaceWas #nobeard I

had a thing for pink back then to and thank god I grew out of the white sunglasses faze

lol.

Oh and yes I know I have a #ButtChin so have your fun with this one people lol You like

me with a beard or without cause I almost guarantee I still look like a child if I shaved."

Yeah, you definitely look like a child there, Braun.

And by 'child', I assume we all mean, the largest adult male currently in existence.

But while Strowman has shared an old gimmick, his former Wyatt Family leader has confirmed

a change in his own wrestling condeeesheeeion!

Bray Wyatt Now Samael In a video posted on Matt Hardy's YouTube

channel, Bray Wyatt reveals that now Sister Abigail has been purged from his mortal vessel

or something, his inner essence has been replaced by Samael - who Matt claims is his BRETHREN

from the start of time.

Wrestlezone have pointed out Bray shares the Samael name with the "Prince of the Devils"

from Jewish and Christian literature, who confusingly can also be "the great prince

in heaven".

With the new gimmick in place, the tag team have offered their help to Earth's Mightiest

Heroes: "Considering their outing against THANOS

in the #InfinityWar, it's apparent that the Avengers NEED The #DELETERSofWORLDS."

Thanos you are such a hee-Wait a second…

Dear god…

Strowman is a son of Thanos.

I must warn Tony!

Batista WWE Return Scrapped Alright, I'll settle for Batista.

The Animal is currently starring in the superhero megabuster Avengers: Infinity War - there

he is waaaay down in the bottom right - which broke multiple box office records on opening

last weekend.

And in the many interviews Batista has done to promote the movie, he's confirmed to

Chad Dukes of 106.7 The Fan the previous reports that he was originally planned to team with

Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania 34… but WWE just stopped calling him.

"This is all insider stuff, and I usually don't share.

I'm really an old-school kayfabe guy.

But they reached out to me earlier this year to possibly come back and do that thing with

Ronda.

And I said that I would be willing to do it only if we teased something for me and Hunter

to go to 'Mania next year.

And they said, 'Yeah, that would be great.

I love that idea.'

And I said, 'Well, that's great.

I'll come back a few times during the year, and we'll tease it, and we'll work it

and we'll milk it.

And we'll go to 'Mania, me and Hunter, next year.'

Oh, I love that idea.

Let's do it!

And so we literally talked for about like three weeks and then they just stopped calling

me.

I sent a text to Hunter.

I was like, 'Hey man, I don't know if you put any more thought into what's going

on.

I'm really excited about the possibilities.'

And I literally never heard back from them.

They just stopped talking to me about it.

Man, I don't know what else I can do to try to...

I want to end my career the right way.

I'm faithful and loyal to the WWE.

I'm proud of being from there and I want to do good business with them, but they just

don't make it easy.

You know, they just don't."

Batista goes onto say that he's turning 50 next year, and while he'd love to finish

his wrestling career "the right way" after his lacklustre 2014 return, he doesn't want

"to be the old guy in the ring".

What's the difference between hibernation and sleep? - Sheena Lee Faherty - Duration: 4:49.

Onboard the spacecraft, the astronauts preset the timer,

enclose themselves in capsules,

and fall into a deep hibernation

that'll carry them several hundred years into the future.

This is a familiar scene in many sci-fi films,

but could humans ever actually hibernate in real life?

Researchers interested in this question turn to the animal kingdom,

where hibernation is commonplace,

occurring in over 200 species that we know of.

Take the Arctic ground squirrel.

Native to the North American tundra and northern Russia,

this animal burrows beneath the permafrost

and slips into a state of suspended animation,

its body temperature plummeting to a frigid -2.9 degrees Celsius.

Others, like the female black bear, can multitask,

giving birth and lactating while they're hibernating through the winter.

The fat-tailed dwarf lemur prepares for its long dormancy

by gorging on food and storing the majority of its fat reserves in its tail,

doubling its body weight.

After hibernation, it emerges looking as svelte as ever.

So why do these animals go to such extremes?

Hibernation is a necessity,

a survival tactic for making it through the harsh winter months

when dwindling food and water reserves threaten survival.

For many years, experts believed hibernation happened

only in arctic and temperate environments.

But more recently, they've discovered animals hibernating

even in arid deserts and tropical rainforests.

As hibernation kicks in,

animals' heartbeats usually slow to about 1 to 3% of their original speed,

like the dwarf lemur's,

which drops from its usual roughly 180 beats per minute

to just around four.

Breathing also declines dramatically

to just one breath every 10 to 21 minutes in the lemur's case.

And black bears, like most hibernators,

don't urinate or defecate the entire hibernation season.

Hibernating animals appear to stay alive

by having just enough blood and oxygen moving around their bodies.

And scans of hibernating animals reveal that their brain activity

has just about flat-lined.

But hibernation isn't a long winter's nap.

As far as researchers know,

in lemurs and ground squirrels anyway,

the animals aren't even sleeping for most of it.

Hibernation is actually made up of regular bouts of reduced metabolic rate

and body temperature known as torpor.

Animals can be in torpor for a few days to five weeks,

after which they resume normal metabolic rate and body temperature

for about 24 hours,

before going back into torpor again.

The phenomenon is known as an interbout arousal,

and why it occurs is still a mystery.

The behaviors inherent in hibernation,

like going five weeks without sleep,

or dropping to near-freezing body temperatures

would be potentially fatal to non-hibernating species like us.

To find out how hibernators are able to do this,

researchers turned their attention to those animal's genomes.

So far, they've discovered that hibernation is controlled by genes

that turn off and on in unique patterns throughout the year,

fine-tuning the hibernator's physiology and behavior.

For example, ground squirrel, bear and dwarf lemur studies

have revealed that these animals are able to turn on the genes

that control fat metabolism

precisely when they need to use their fat stores

as fuel to survive long periods of fasting.

And the genes in question are present in all mammals,

which means that researchers could study hibernating mammals

to see how their unique control of physiology might help humans.

Understanding how hibernators deal with reduced blood flow

could lead to better treatments for protecting the brain during a stroke.

Figuring out how these animals avoid muscle deterioration

might improve the lives of bedridden patients.

And studying how hibernating animals control their weight with ease

could illuminate the relationship between metabolism and weight gain in humans.

And yes, more research in this area

might someday make human hibernation a real possibility.

Imagine our surprise if the key to intergalactic travel

turns out to be ground squirrels, black bears, and dwarf lemurs.

Spring Fashion Trends YOU Must Try 2018 + Girl Talk! - Duration: 12:48.

hey guys so today I'm going to be

talking all about my favorite spring trends and also wanted to do a little

girl chat video with you guys it's been a while since I've just sat down hung

out with you had real talk made me because I'm on going period or something

or because it's Wednesday I just feel extra chatty today and also just answer

some of your most frequently asked questions you guys have been asking me a

ton of things and I want to just answer it all in this one video

I love getting back to my subscribers so be sure to subscribe to my channel to

join this month's giveaway I'm giving you away a Polaroid camera and all I

have to do is to be subscribed to my channel if you want to shop anything in

this video just open up the description box it will be all down below including

my sign saying and the price be sure to give this video a big thumbs up if you

like my girl chat videos so without further ado let's get a

well I can't believe I was able to score a dress for $12 I can barely buy lunch

for that price raise your hand if you're a dressed kind of girl because I am so

lazy when it comes to getting dressed but you know your girl wants to look

good about this dress for $12.99 which is such a steal honestly one of my queen

of discount moments I love the smock detail and the ruffly sleeves it makes

it so flirty and fun and perfect first summer what's great is since there's

this little tie here you can actually scrunch up the sleeve to transform the

sleeve into a short sleeve this dress also has two slits in the front which is

nice and airy and breezy oh my latest obsession has been midi

style dresses with this tie fret detail I love the little cutout here in the

front and I also love the jumpsuit style as well this jumpsuit is from Target it

was quite a good deal I believe this was twenty two dollars and this dress was

$40 from Urban Outfitters I love the kind of mustard a bright yellow canary

color and the is perfect for spring and summer I see myself wearing it to

weddings and picnics and a lot of nice like French hair

I wanted to talk about this gorgeous white leather jacket from t.j.maxx

I loved the studded detail on it and what really stood out to me is the

embroidered detailing on the jacket usually when I think of a leather jacket

I think of something really tough and edgy but I find out this one is quite

bohemian and really fun even though it has these silver studs on it it still

matches my style and I think it's a nice modern tank on the other jacket I got a

lot of questions about how to style mom jeans mom jeans tend to have a more

looser silhouette so I would definitely recommend wearing it with something more

fitted on the top like a crop top something like a white t-shirt tucked

into your mom jeans so these ones are my first ever pair from made while her

super comfortable really loose kind of baggy the perfect sub regime

as a petite girl I love this mini striped dress it's super cute from Urban

Outfitters I love how these stripes kind of elongate my body it also makes me

feel a lot slimmer the cross-back detail is unexpected but very fun and whimsical

it's like a party in the front and then business in the back so another trend

I've been loving has been romantic white blouses something similar to this so

this blouse was a little bit boxy when I picked it up so I decided to wear it

backwards you know I got a hack my own clothes so I love the ruffle details and

I tucked in the collar to create this v-neck line already for those of you who

are wondering what does the top actually look like on here it is that's my blouse

is a great base for overalls denim skirts anything more plain and simple I

just love the look of a crisp white top nothing beats it

next up I have these jeans from Target I've been really into experimenting with

new styles of bottoms I picked up these wide leg crop jeans it has this cute

little waist tie to cinch in your waist so I actually featured this outfit and

my nothing to wear spring video and I really loved it because it kind of gave

me that retro vibe and it's ultra comfortable kind of conservative and

minimalist

bottom I'm wearing this denim skirt from Madewell and I love the button details

and this patch here on the side this denim skirt is so incredibly comfortable

and it's really nice and stretchy

and then I also picked up these pink suede mules I love how comfortable they

are these styles of shoes are definitely

geared towards they comfy mom really comfortable and they're so cute in this

millennial pink color if you're still a skinny jean lover like I am that you

will fall in love with these jeans that I have from made while I love the light

distressing here on the thigh knee and also on the ankle skinny jeans are a

great way to balance out oversized voluminous tops and it keeps everything

nice and streamlined and sucks everything

oh man everybody stay in this hop with something that kind of looks like

chocolate I'm not really sure or maybe some cake this time as far as maybe to

go outside makes me wanna have a barbecue or to

hang out with my friends it's so freakin cute I love that's a little bit more on

the looser side so I could tuck it into my skinny jeans or mom jeans it's just

so fun and whimsical and so San Francisco so now let's move on to the

Q&A portion of this video the first question is how do I meet my boyfriend

Scott so I've been dating him for about a year and a half and we actually met

online we used the app coffee meets bagel I am

definitely the bagel and he is the coffee I'm an everything bagel by the

way we met online we really hadn't opted and I actually didn't tell him what I

did at all he had no idea that I was you know a youtuber I told him I worked in

marketing and advertising and I loved photography and videography and that was

pretty much it we went to a museum and the girl at the ticketing death she

actually recognized me and she's like oh my gosh I knew fashion bialya

oh I love your YouTube videos I'm like girl you totally gave me away but it was

a great icebreaker and I could finally talk about my passion which is making

YouTube videos and I could finally share that part of me with him question number

two how do you deal with toxic friendships I feel that there are two

types of people people who talk about other people and people who talk about

ideas I definitely prefer people who talk about ideas people who talk about

other people cause a lot of drama you want people to inspire you to pursue

your dreams motivate you to become a better person so if you feel like you

have a toxic friend in your life I think you should not feel bad to let them go

you there can be different types of toxic

people it can be people in your family it could be people at school that you

can't really escape from co-workers etc communicate that what they're saying or

their actions are not acceptable and you're hoping that they can change this

one's got a funny and kind of juicy how do you feel if someone likes you never

hurts to be straightforward and just say hey do you like me or are you interested

in me you know if you like them back and it's a mutual feeling I don't see why it

would hurt to ask okay do you like me this next question is so funny okay are

you Asian I think when I was younger I used to get offended by this question to

think how do you not know what I am if you care yes and you really want to know

it's okay to ask those questions yes I'm Asian I'm chinese-american I was

born here in San Francisco born and raised I've never lived

anywhere else except for Davis and San Luis Obispo for a short period time for

college the reason why some people question the fact that I'm Asian or not

is because of my hair color it's a slightly brown through neck color so it

kind of confuses people every now and then so yeah to answer your question

100% Chinese how do you get paid on Instagram well as a social-media

influencer you can do brand partnerships and you work with brands that you truly

love and support and you create images or videos for them and you share it on

your platform that reaches thousands of people another alternative is to use

affiliate links so things like like to no reward style shop style

collective those are really simple ways where you can earn money simply by

referring products to your followers or viewers where is my favorite place to

shop my favorite place to shop right now has to be Nordstrom I'm obsessed with

Topshop I love Asus I loved forever 21 Zara love shopping at Target or Target

Urban Outfitters oh my gosh I can go on if you're ever curious to know where

any of my clothing is from usually I have it linked in the description box of

my video or you can check out my blog fashion by alikom last but not least how

is YouTube now compared to when you started well I started youtube over

eight years ago and way back then I used to film all of my videos on a webcam so

I feel that the production value has definitely changed over the years go

with the flow and film videos on the spot whatever it felt like I did a lot

more DIYs and sewing videos whereas nowadays is more like clothing hacks and

more like lookbook style videos so the production value of that has definitely

changed I have more of a game plan when it comes to filming and editing what

hasn't changed really is I love sharing with you outfit ideas and I love just

the community aspect of YouTube put a face to a user name is so important to

me it seriously makes my day and it's my highlight to meet you guys ok I'm going

to be completely honest with you guys I've been struggling for a while because

I've built this YouTube channel for over eight years I've been consistently

uploading videos and hopes to inspire you to be the most creative self and to

empower you to be confident in the clothing that you wear in the past year

of going viral I've kind of lost touch with my viewers you guys so I would love

to know about you comment down below and let me know where are you from how long

have you been watching my youtube channel tell me something about yourself

and I feel like I've shared my entire journey with you guys all the way from

when I was in high school struggling with bullying through college when I did

having fun and making DIY videos and look books and sharing with you guys my

personal style here today's sitting here just really excited

about life so happy to see what's next with my youtube channel tell me where

Longlists, Channel Changes, Goals & DNF'd Books - Duration: 14:23.

Hello, Bookworms. I'm Hannah, and I'm posting this video in lieu of an April

Wrap-Up. Normally when I sit down to record I have my thoughts organized, but

I didn't have time to do that this month, so I'm just going to talk to you and

wing it and hopefully I can edit this video into something salvageables

Speaking of talking to you I have a quick question to ask before I get into

everything I want to discuss in this video. I feel like I'm having something

of an identity crisis on my channel, and I could use some feedback from all of

you. Many of you know I moved in January, and prior to that move I was recording

in a very small, laughably small, space. All of my lights and equipment in camera

were just [whoosh] right here in front of my face, I was working with a low quality

microphone that forced me to shout, and I was nervous being on camera for the

first time, so all of that working in tandem meant that I was very poised and

loud and bubbly in my initial videos, and now that I've moved I have more space to

move around and I'm more comfortable in front of the camera and I've noticed

myself sort of loosening up on camera and being more conversational. Some of

you have said that you like this new conversational approach, but when I'm

editing footage I feel as though I look sleepy on camera. I don't feel like my

genuine enthusiasm for books and how passionate I feel about storytelling in

books is really coming across on camera. It's not unlike me to overthink things,

and I'm overthinking this. I don't know if I should be exuberant and

exceptionally bubbly or if I should just be, you know, calm and conversational and

so if you want to weigh-in in the comments and let me know whhich you prefer

that would really help me. Now back to the January move. That was the catalyst

in everything that I'm going to be discussing in this video, because that

move was unexpected, it was quick it, was sudden, and it had an enormous impact on

my schedule. I now wake up on most days at about 5:50 in the morning and I don't

get home until sometime between 7 & 8 o'clock at night. And that means that I

don't have as much time to read, and I'm not tending to my personal goals for the

year, which I'll be discussing later in this video, and it means I really

have time to be making videos like I used to. I have realized that I have to

make some adjustments in my schedule, some adjustments on my channel, and I

really need to sort of recalibrate my life so that I don't lose my mind. That

sudden move in January meant that I didn't really have time to make a video

reflecting on the last year and sharing with you my goals for this year, so I'm

going to do that in today's video. One of the things I wanted to do about last

year was sort of wipe the slate clean on any unfinished projects, and that

included reviewing all of the books nominated for the Andre Norton award. I

was doing something a little different with those videos where I integrated a

lot more sound and music, sound effects and music, that is, but those are the most

labor-intensive videos I make, and they don't warrant many views. If they're not

helping many people find books then I'm not sure that they're worth my time, so

I'm not going to finish those. And I had an epic library book haul video I planned

to make. When I first mentioned that video I said that it was a daunting

video, and that is true, it's still true. It's so daunting I never got to it, so

not going to be doing that. And I also wanted to adjust this year to cater to

two personal goals for the year. The first of those goals was to read more books

that I want to read, make sure that I was reading books that I want to read, and

you saw that reflected in my reaction to this year's Women's Prize longlist. I

wasn't excited by all of the books on the list, and so I chose not to read them.

If those books aren't going to make me happy or enrich my life then they're not

the books that I need to be reading right now. There are a couple of things I

want to say about the Women's Prize long list and now seems like a good time, so

first, let me mention that reading and reviewing an entire longlist is an

enormous time commitment. It's one thing to read 16 books, that alone is a huge

time commitment, but it takes so long for booktubers to reflect on the books they

read, gather their thoughts, spend time recording videos, then edit those videos

and upload those videos to YouTube, then field comments on those videos.

It's very flattering when people say, "I can't wait to hear your thoughts on this

book," or "I can't wait to see your thoughts on the longlist," or "I'm really

hoping you'll review a complete longlist." I find it very endearing, and I'm

sure other booktubers do too, but I just want to let people know that as a

booktuber and a content creator there is a sense of pressure that comes with

these longlists, this pressure that we should be reading and reviewing all of

these books, and a lot of us just don't have time or a lot of us sacrifice other

things in our lives to make those videos happen for you guys, so I would just

caution everybody against making their beloved booktubers feel pressured to

review these complete long lists, because a booktube channel is essentially a

part-time job that's unpaid work. Also in relation to the Women's Prize longlist

and longlists in general, I made an observation recently and I came to a

realization that I want to talk about briefly. The observation was that the

Women's Prize gifted at least one booktuber the complete longlist which

is so cool and incredibly generous, but that booktuber was a guy, and this is a

prize that celebrates women creatives, and I think it's a shame that there's

not more support of the women booktubers who are out here sacrificing our time,

money, and energy creating content showcasing these longlist and

shortlist books. Now I understand that the Women's Prize is a sponsored event

and anytime something is sponsored that involves money, that's a business there

needs to be a return on investment, and that means that a booktuber with a

higher subscriber count or a bigger Twitter following is going to get more

support. And maybe the problem is that some of the avid women surprise

reviewers, like myself or Jennifer at Insert Literary Pun Here, we're very

critical of these books. We hold these books to a higher standard, because we're

told that they are the best books in women's fiction from the last year. Now

this leads me to the realization. That's a false statement; there's no way that

statement could be true. Hundreds of thousands of books are published each

year, and these longlists are comprised from reviewing usually about 200 books

that publishers submit for consideration. So 5 judges make their way through 200

books and most of the judge - I don't think the judges even read all 200 books

I believe they're divided to a set number of books per judge and then

they put forth their favorites and the list gets whittled down until we have,

you know, a 16 or 20 book longlist. Which leads me to talk about the judges for a

moment, because the panel judges is usually five people. Those five people

change every year, and thank goodness, because everyone has varied taste in

books. And this is the realization that I've come to. When five people are

working together to comprise a longlist we get a very diverse mix of books which

is a good thing. No one book is going to satisfy everybody. An eclectic mix of

books means that there's something for everyone. And the realization is that:

Fundamentally, I don't think longlists are designed to be read in their

entirety; I don't think we're supposed to read all of those books, because it's

just statistically improbable that any one of us will love all of them. That's

why half of the longlists I read tend to make me miserable, and the other half

fill me with joy, and that's true for a lot of other critical booktubers. The

word critical leads me to another point I want to discuss in this video and

that's that looking back on this year so far I have experienced unprecedented

reading highs and reading lows in a way I never have before, and it's

souring my enjoyment of books and it's making me a bit of a booktube grump. I

don't like how negative I've been in so many of my videos. I don't want to be

somebody who's just ranting about books all the time. I started this channel to

help people find books they'll love and enjoy, and I want to get back to that

which means I am not going to make my video review of See What I Have Done by

Sarah Schmidt. It's a longlist book on this year's Women's Prize list that

really didn't jive with me, but hey, that ties into my realization about longlists.

This book doesn't work for me, but it might work for you. If you think the

synopsis sounds cool, give it a shot. I don't want to make a whole video

complaining about it, so I'm not going to record that video. I'm really gonna try

to stick to more upbeat, positive reviews. However, I am going to briefly rant about

one more book before I proceed with being more positive on my channel, and

I'm doing that because I DNF'd a book in April for the first time since

August of 2016. For those of you who are curious the book IDNF'd in 2016 was

The Watchmaker of Filigree Street by Natasha Pulley. Pulley is an Oxford graduate

and yet I'm not sure she knows what pronouns are, or how to use them. The book

I DNF'd in April of this year is Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi.

Now here's the rub on this book. When Adeyemi's agent was shopping the

book to publishers, publishers thought it was going to be big, and they got into a

bidding war over it. I didn't know this when I started reading it, but the

winning bid was a seven-figure offer. When a publisher spends seven figures on

the rights to publish a book they put all of their weight behind promoting

that book. They get their author out there on talk shows and podcasts. They

build up as much hype as they possibly can to make everyone think this is going

to be the next big thing, and they slap a gorgeous, irresistible cover on the book

so that everyone buys it so that they can recoup their investment, and what I'm

essentially saying is that we were all duped into thinking this poorly written

debut is the next big thing when it's not. I want my money back. Adeyemi

credits Sabaa Tahir, author of An Ember in the Ashes, with being a source

of inspiration for her writing, but that's not what's going on here. This

brings to mind Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert, a wonderful book on writing and

being an artist. In it, Elizabeth Gilbert says that as creatives we imitate until

we innovate. Theoretically, as aspiring authors, we should get noticed when we

start innovating, and Children of Blood and Bone is one of those fluke instances

where a fledgling author got noticed in a big big way when she was still

imitating. If you read Children of Blood and Bone next to An Ember in the Ashes,

beat for beat Adeyemi is essentially copying Tahir's work. I'm not okay with

that. I'm angry about this book, about Children of Blood and Bone, and I won't

be seeing the movie and, frankly, I don't care how beautiful the second book is I

will not be buying it. Alright, now that we've got the rant out of the way let's

move on to goal number two which was to focus more on my writing this year,

something I didn't really do last year because I was busy querying agents.

A lot of you know that I'm a writer, and some of you have caught on to the fact

that I review books as a writer where I touch on themes, but I don't delve into

that too much because most of us went over that in school and I don't think

you need me holding your hand walking you through themes and symbols in books.

But I do touch a lot on character depth and plot pacing and structure and

storytelling, because that's important to me. It's partly why I read books, to

learn and take what I learn and use it in my own writing. As I mentioned, I spent

last year querying. I had a lot of success in a Twitter pitch, had numerous

requests for my manuscript, and obviously those didn't result in any offers of

representation. If they had I would just be screaming on my channel of joy, but

short of having an agent offer representation the next thing that any

aspiring author can covet is an offer to query again, and I got some of those. I

have agents who said, "You write well, you just need to work on this,

please query me again in future." And I'm really looking forward to the moment

when I can present something new to them, and I'm working on something new now. But

I'm finding it difficult to devote time and energy to it, so I have to make fewer

videos in order to spend more time writing. So that leads me to basically,

you know, recalibrating my life and realizing that, for a while at least, I'm

just going to make monthly wrap-up videos. And since I'm reading less there

may be some months where I don't have enough quality reads to make a

substantial wrap-up video, and I think in those instances I will finally get to

some of the videos I've been wanting to do for the last year but haven't had

time to do, because I've been reading long lists and reviewing the Women's

Prize and the Man Booker. Some of those videos I've wanted to get are, you know,

my favorite reads of all time. I want to share with you my favorite book of all

time, and I keep waiting to do it because there's never time to. I've been tagged

in some book tag videos; I've never gotten around to making those. And the

one video I really hope to make before the year concludes, because a lot of you

have asked for it, is a bookshelf tour which is possibly the most daunting

video a booktuber can make, but I get it. I would want a bookshelf tour too; I love

watching people's bookshelf tour videos, so I will try to make one before the

year concludes. In the meantime I've taken to posting mini book

haul pictures on my Instagram, so you can follow me there if you want to see what

new books I'm getting throughout the year, because I definitely don't have

time for book haul videos right now. I think that's everything I wanted to

cover in this video. Oh! I did want to mention that whatever video I post in

the month of May will either be early or late. But I think I covered everything

else: the longlist, being more positive on my channel, making fewer videos while I

focus on my writing, and making sure that I'm really reading books but I want to

read this year. Yeah, I think that's all of it. I do want to reiterate that I'm so

grateful to everyone who has subscribed to my channel and leaves me positive

comments and positive messages. It's so uplifting, especially since I make these

videos for you. These videos aren't for me; they are for you, and I hope that you

continue to enjoy them and that you'll be patient with me while I take a little

bit of time to recharge my batteries. Thanks, everybody.
