April 19th Entry: 100th Blog Post! 🎉😄🎊🌠

Yep, according to Blogger, it looks like this entry also happens to be my 100th blog post on this blog. Wow, time surely flies! 🕒🛫 From my very first, weak introductory entry all the way back on Sunday, January 31st, 2016 now up to this one. Will I be doing anything super special for this entry? Admittedly, not really. But what I can say, is that it has indeed been an interesting journey. Not only just on Blogger, but on YouTube and of course real life. Real life has been variable, YouTube mostly bad thanks to their constant stupid, oppressive, sensitive, kiss up changes, while Blogger has been fairly good for the most part. Where do I see this blog going in the near future? 2018 has particularly made it hard to predict the future, but I can say that I plan to continue typing up blog posts that interest me. I would also like to seriously get better at time management and staying focused. 😅😐 For real...

Now on this same day, 7 videos have (or are being) been uploaded to the channel. What's interesting about this batch is that three are videos of the same game, three are unboxings and one is a weekly usual. Read below to get the scoop on them.

Holden Assembly and Buick Riviera Take Home - Asphalt 8

Quite an interesting-looking car, isn't it? Whether or not, it will become a production car in reality is unknown. For those that don't know, you'd be under the impression that this is an all-electric car based on the in-game acceleration sound. The fact that it also requires electric engines to fully pro it, further pushes this belief. However, when I looked into it, this vehicle is apparently a plug-in hybrid. 🤨 Now it makes sense why we saw Championship texts saying things like "engine oiled" and so forth. As for this video itself, there's really not much to it. Just me assembling the Holden Coupe 60, taking the Buick Riviera, and then doing an inventory check before uploading to the crappy Spring 2018 Update. 😰😖😤

Stafford Executive Non-Iron Cotton Pinpoint Oxford Long Sleeve Dress Shirt - Big & Tall

Yep, all of the videos uploaded this week have some pretty darn long titles! 🤣 Hopefully you all are reading and watching from smartphones or computers with large screens. 😏 Anyways! Why did I buy this shirt? Why this colour? Because I wanted to get something a bit different with longer sleeves for an event. I've mentioned the colours that I had, and colours I didn't: pink, brown, yellow and orange. Well, pink can now be officially crossed off of the do-not-have list! 🎯 To be honest, I'm not really sure if I'll ever get a brown dress shirt, but we'll see. Actually, what? why not! 😝 Oh yes, if I haven't stated it already, I can say that I love the feel, looks and presence of a pocket with this Stafford shirt.

Asphalt 8: Spring 2018 Update on Windows Phone

Is it just me? Or have the updates of Asphalt 8 been getting very stinky lately?! 😠 The last update of 2017, the Hot Wheels Update, brought stupid Hot Wheels cars that had no Season 9 or Mastery tracks! And to beat, they were expensive to upgrade! 😵 Then Fall Out Boy comes in 2018, which brought the removal of the 20 daily tokens for completed tasks! The new cars it brought also had extremely poor Mastery rewards: no tokens, no Class Upgrades or even double credits! Instead, they primarily offered lousy blueprint boxes and boosters. Booooooooooooooo! And then much later, a bunch of longtime cars that could be purchased with credits have become token-only! W Motors Lykan HyperSport, Lamborghini Veneno, McLaren 675LT are just a few examples. Many complaints have been made about that over the Internet. Have they changed it with the new Spring 2018 Update? Nope! In fact, they just made it worse! 😠😡 Two of the cars, the Apollo N and Apollo Intensa Emozione, both have token upgrades. Those old cars still have not returned back to normal with their credits prices. But wait, that's not all! A number of other bugs have been introduced too. Server problems, intense lag on Android smartphones, Mastery not opening on Windows Phone, no Mastery Compensation for the Geely GC9, Facebook login errors, and the list goes on. So tell me something: why in the universe are they trying desperately, pathetically hard to get players to spend money on dumb, fake, virtual currency when the game is getting worse?! WHY?! If you ask me, they need to slow down with the updates! Instead of doing six a year, it's high time that they halve it down to 3. It's time to focus on quality instead of quantity. And no, I am not the only one that has suggested this. They are losing their quality edge badly! Nobody with sense is going to throw their money at Gameloft Greedloft to help patch whatever financial struggles they may seemingly be going through. Especially not through token purchases at least. If they need money that badly, there are other non-annoying ways to make money, without sabotaging Asphalt 8's user experience. One obvious thing they can do is sell merchandise. You see a lot of those big YouTubers doing this, so if they haven't thought of it, they should give it a try, and pull tokens out of the game. They've caused enough headaches and complaints from its users. And speaking of "headaches" I could not win the Apollo N, thanks to its token upgrades, and being unable to access Mastery for free Class B upgrades.🤬🤬🤬🤬 Yeah, that's how messed up this update is. Because I wasn't sure if the Championship would be extended for those that decided to download the update later, I decided to give it a shot immediately. Lo and behold, I should have never bothered with it. Oh well. Now that I know that Asphalt 8 is getting worse, but will hopefully get back on track, I will be extra careful with updates like how I used to be. The streak rewards are also pathetic. Waiting 3-4 days before claiming a special box is worse than getting a blueprint or the much yearned for 20 tokens.

Insten Hard Hybrid Plastic Silicone Case with stand for BlackBerry Q10 - Black/Blue

Another case for my BlackBerry Q10! 😁 Though the last case was nice and all, it did not have a kickstand on the main part of the case itself. While I do kind of miss holstering the BlackBerry onto my pocket or belt, I like the better protection and kickstand this one offers. Unlike the kickstand case I use on my Lumia 1520, this case's sliding kickstand mechanism feels like it might break easily. 😬 The slide doesn't feel or look very sturdy. Time well tell. It also slips out of your hand somewhat easily. Negatives aside, all the holes are cut out properly, it looks good and volume keys are easy to use, which wasn't the case with the last case. Pun intended and not intended at the same time.🤣🤗 And a final thing: it's comes on and off easily. A bit of rare trait for a double layered, kickstand-toting case.

Enduro Double Down Glitch - ALL VEHICLES SHOWN!

For real! All 224 vehicles could be seen after the Spring Update in the Enduro Double Down garage of the Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 SV. From the lowly Dodge Dart GT all the way up to the dangerous Devel Sixteen Prototype. I had considerations to roll these Asphalt 8 videos into 1 or 2 videos. I then decided against that, because I felt that it would've caused too much dilution and lack of interest for viewers. You're welcome. 🤗 Even vehicles that had been pulled from the game, such as the RUF Rt 12 S, were visible. You could even upgrade them, too. But as we all know by now, doing this leads to a ban for 14 days! 😵😱🤯😬😰😨😭😖😲 Yeah, so, um, even if they were available to be purchased for credits, I could imagine Gameloft issuing a hefty ban! But seriously though, they really do need to make all these vehicles available for credits, and not tokens! For the special events vehicles, they could just make them 1,000,000 - 5,000,000 credits for a limited time. That way, they can keep their exclusivity without being downright impossible or not worth it, as opposed to the nonsensical 10,000 - 14,000 tokens that they currently roll with. 🤕 You know which cars I'd buy? Quite a bit! BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage, Arash AF10, Aston Martin Vulcan, Audi R8 e-tron Special Edition, Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport and Apollo Intensa Emozione. 

Casual Instrumental Noise Session - Episode #6

If you have no idea what that's supposed to be, then you need to go watch the video! Watch it! 😀 So aside from the use of food in this episode, is there anything that makes it stand out from the other episodes? No. Actually, the 4K resolution and details of the food might make it a tad more unique the previous, but again, nothing super special. 

Waterproof Hiking Shoes High Top Boots Men Trekking Non Slip Outdoor Breathable Walking Climbing Sneakers By Gomnear

When I saw their $69 price tag and somewhat of a lack of an online presence, I had doubts about the quality of these shoes. Luckily, I've actually been able to go out for a walk in them yesterday. I can tell you that they are indeed comfortable, though my feet would've been slightly happier with 33cm/13" as opposed to the 31.75cm/12.5" that these were only available in. They also did not arrive, dirty or used, and were brand new as advertised. "Well shouldn't shoes be brand new if the say they are?" You would think so, right? Countless amounts of times people have ordered things from not only Amazon, but other websites as well, where new items weren't actually new.😠 Not a fun thing to experience. The build quality of these Gonmears also felt sturdy. If these shoes can manage to hold up in the long run, after plenty of walks on gravel, asphalt and dirt, then Gonmear may be able to hold the honour of being a highly affordable, durable, uncommon brand. Until then, we'll see. Perhaps you already own Gonmears and know what the long term reliability is? If so, do comment. You'll not only help me out, but others who had doubts about brands like this as well. We all know brands like Nike, Adidas, Puma, Timberland or Reebok, but certainly not oddities like Gonmear! 🤔

What's Next & Other Ramblings

So wow! It's not only crazy and amazing that this is 100th blog post, but that it also happens to have 3 unboxing videos, and 3 videos of Asphalt 8. I really have learned a lot over the years with Google's subsidiaries. I've also learned and got better at finding and developing my craft. There are a lot of emotions that can be used to describe how I feel about the next coming 100 posts. If the beginning of the post hasn't emphasized it enough, life can be really variable. In both good ways and bad ways. While I haven't talked about the details of my personal life on any of my social media outlets, there's been numerous times where I've described events or situations when necessary. It's no secret that I'm a very confidential man. 🤫 But if you've been watching my videos, reading my blog posts, or viewing my other forms of medium on my other outlets, you should have a very good idea of what type of person I am. And yes, if you've watched certain videos closely enough, or have seen me in-person, in real life, filming some of the outdoor locations, then you should also know what I look like. 🤯

So what's next for the video department? I'm not sure if there's actually going to be any uploads next week. I wanted to focus on various entries and websites I had in mind. If I do decide to shoot some videos, I'd like to try and get something done from the outdoors, as I missed that this week. For now, show some love to last week's videos if you haven't already! 😄💘 Buying a Bunch of Ferraris in Asphalt 8: Airborne, Julie Payette Public School, Jean-Paul II Catholic Elementary School, Staples Turcotte Luxura High Back Executive Chair Unboxing, Casual Instrumental Noise Session  - Episode #5.

To those of you that take the time to read my blog posts: Thank you!

July 19-20 Video commentaries

July 19-20 Video commentaries

For this Mid-latish July entry, I'll be going into lengthy commentaries on the four videos titled below.

Tank Vs $40,000 Dodge Journey... the official video. TANK MY LEMON

So in this video we have an Aussie couple with a Dodge Journey that they've had for a couple of years. The problem? It's been painfully unreliable, which is unfortunately not surprising given that this is a product from Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. The unreliability of their Dodge Journey has been so bad, that they've had to try so many times to try and get Fiat Chrysler Australia to fix the car, but never received the proper help that they've needed. They often had to resort to fixing it out of their own expenses. Eventually, they got so frustrated that it led to the video you see in the link above: tank demolition! They didn't want to trade it in or sell it, because they feared that it would become another owner's problem, so they resorted to abusing the car a bit before finally letting a military tank run over the garbage. Wow! They really had it with that Dodge and wanted to bring public awareness to Australia, that the country urgently needs to introduce Lemon Law protections to avoid the dilemma that many Australians go through when they purchase unreliable cars. It was entertaining watching a vehicle being crushed, but based on the nightmarish experiences the couple went through, it's also pretty sad. Now just in case a Fiat Chrysler fan reading this wants to come on and tell me or the couple off, don't. All cars can have problems, but some brands have been proven to be worse than others based on countless amounts of studies and owners reports. Fiat Chrysler, unfortunately fairs pretty badly. Not all owners have gone through hell with them, but many have. I personally like the Ram 1500, Dodge Durango and Maserati Levante from their line up, but I do hope that they work hard to improve their reliability and quality record.

Justin Trudeau - 50 "UMM'S"In Just Over 1 MINUTE

I've been reading about commenters picking at Justin's “ums” for quite a while now, but now there's actually a video about this? Wow. Just Wow… While it's obvious that hes does say “um” and “uh” a lot, it's a bit awkward to point it out to this level, but nonetheless, this video was absolutely hilarious! The fact that they were not only counting, but also adding um faces each and every time he would say uh or um. He clocked in at 50 ums in under a minute and a half during this short segment. Humour and jokes aside, he was actually answering an important question in regards to the disastrous fire that plagued Fort McMurray. The asker wanted to know what the federals were going to about the situation, and he did the right thing by answering it seriously and stating what he did, but due to the intended nature of this particular video, it was borderline impossible to keep a straight face while watching this video! Seriously, who can keep their lips still to this? I left a comment saying “Hey, at least he speaks two languages!” and received the following response someone: “This IS NOT an example of speaking the English language." LOL! Wonder how he would've sounded in French or Mandarin??

Woman allegedly run over boyfriend after finding out he's HIV positive

Due to the graphic, sensitive nature of this video, it could be pulled down from YouTube any minute now. Viewer discretion is advised. As you can see in the video, a woman decides one day to charge at her boyfriend in a nice, red Ford Mustang because she found out that he had the human immunodeficiency virus, better known as simply HIV. Now, I can understand her being extremely upset, angry, frustrated, used, disappointment and beyond, but this was certainly not the right way to go about things! We are often taught that two wrongs doesn't make a right, and that definitely applies here. It can be very hard and embarrassing to mention to someone that you have HIV, because you'll naturally be afraid of rejection and scandalous gossip, but clearly, hiding it has proven to be a lose-lose situation for both of them: the man got ran over and broke some bones, while the woman was charged and jailed. It's been said a thousand times, but needs to be said again: communication and honesty! It can sometimes be difficult to practice these things, but it's important in order to try and keep a healthy relationship. In this case, I think it's actually a legal issue that potential sex partners are required to know whether you have the disease or not, as are your health care providers. This is a very deep, complex situation that could very well turn into a post well exceeding a thousand words, but I'll just say that if this man felt that the woman is a scandalizer who would hurt him by word of mouth and ruin many things for him, then she may not have been worth it. It's hard, risky and complicated, but if possible, let your partners know as soon as possible if you feel they can handle it. If not, speak to your health care providers and trusted experts; they're there for a reason.

Vivaldi - The Four Seasons"Winter", RV 297

Ah, now for some a little cheerier. So what makes this performance of Vivaldi's Winter so special, that I had to talk about it? The lead solo is a recorder! Yes, that's right. Those things that most people often see as cheap elementary toys, even though they're not! This man's speed, accuracy, articulation and just everything about the way he was playing was just incredible! I'll be honest: due to the recorder's small range of two octaves (and a third, fourth or even fifth depending on the model and your level of virtuosity), I didn't really think it was possible to do this, but he pulled it off like the musical champion he is! One thing I did notice, is that he did swap recorders a couple times throughout the piece, likely to get around the range issue, or probably just to show off his mad skills, or maybe just because some voices handled certain passages better? Who knows. The man is just good! That's what I know for sure. So who is he? I looked him up and apparently his name is Dan Laurin. “Dan Laurin is an award-winning Swedish recorder player” Those are the very words from his wiki page and it's spot on! I haven't really listened to his other performances, but judging from this one, we can certainly say that he's good.

JUNE 8 Uploads

6.10.16

In this entry, I'll be discussing the videos I uploaded two days ago which are Touring Brooklin High School [exterior], Trans-Canada Trail: Southern strip off Highway 2, and of course Asphalt 8: Rushing RUFs in Barcelona.

BrooklinHigh School [exterior]

This video took place on a Saturday in May when it was pleasantly sunny, but not as warm as I'd like to be. Not cold per se, but could have been better. I was thinking about where I wanted to go on the weekend during that week, but wasn't entirely sure. I wanted to go somewhere I haven't been before, so I eventually looked at Brooklin and decided that I'd definitely head there over the weekend. When I arrived there, I filmed Brooklin High School. The school looks quite new and fresh, as it was apparently opened just last year in 2015. Wow. Nothing jaw dropping about the architecture or anything, but it was still a nice area to tour. I explored some of the other streets within the area as well. Based on my first impressions, Brooklin is a nice looking, picturesque town with A LOT of gorgeous detached and semi-detached houses. It wasn't caught on video, but there was also a moment where I heard and briefly witnessed some kind of 2-door Porsche zipping by with its powerful, sporty exhaust note. Rich, suburban town? Yeah, I think I'd say so. I may come back to explore other areas in the future, though I'm not exactly sure when.

Trans-CanadaTrail: Southern strip off Highway 2

As mentioned in the video description, this area wasn't exactly new to me, but what is new was the fact that there was a southern portion that I've never trekked before, so I decided to explore it on either the 28^th or 29^th of May, or possibly the 5^th of June. Can't believe I forgot the exact date already! Oh well. Anyways, I was expecting this place to be your typical trail with paths, lots of trees and maybe creeks and streams, and it was. But there was also a lot of unexpected colourful graffiti and other oddities here and there. Quite a lot of the paths in this place will often take you to dead ends near cliffs, while others bring you out to streets. Either way, it wasn't difficult to find your way here and there, especially when compared to the winding paths on the northern strip, nor was getting lost an issue. This is kind of random, but apparently the creek in this area seems like it had a bit of an issue with eel lampreys, so there was a structure installed in the creek to curb the breeding. I honestly wasn't 100% what those things looked like, but when I Googled them and saw their appearances, and what they do to other fish, I was just like “Ouch!” It's really not pretty…

Asphalt8: Rushing RUFs in Barcelona

In this playthrough of Asphalt 8, I play in Barcelona with the two Porsche (ok, I probably need to stop with these cheesy Porsche-RUF jokes) RUF cars RT 12 S and CTR 3. The purpose was to compare the speeds, but I didn't drive too well during the onscreen recording with the RT 12 S, so you'll see quite a gap between the two, but when I did again off screen it was only about two seconds or so. Still, the CTR 3 is the better choice, because it's still faster despite it's fake top speed, handles better and has a slightly longer lasting nitro. Now, there is a poll present that asks which of these two cars you like better and for me it's the --------------------------- RUF RT 12 S! For some reason, even though it's supposedly weaker than it's Class S counterpart, I just like it better primarily for emotional reasons: it just looks better, sounds better (in game), has an accurate speed bar and just appeals to me more overall, despite it's flaws compared to its sibling and even the other Class A cars. Regardless, I must admit that I enjoy wrecking RUFs when I'm not playing as them, and I've heard about others that do too! Their big circular eyes, the way they zip and zigzag, and awful CP manners makes them such desirable knocking targets!

So I guess that concludes it for this entry. No commentary on other videos this time, but maybe next time?

Late March Videos

5.19.16

I haven't been discussing my videos as I should, so for this blog post I'll be taking about Snow, pellets and wind, Pinball Pro: A somewhat quick playthrough, Tap wood with Woody Tap Tap! and Asphalt 8 - Twisty difficult adventures! Since these were the four latest videos added to the channel, even though it's been almost two months since then. There's also another additional sad video I'd like to comment on.

Snow, pellets and wind

Well, not too much to really say about this one aside from the fact that it was taken on a cold day with poor visibility. I was trying head up a certain path, but then the combination of the snow, pellets and wind got so bad, that I couldn't see a thing ahead of me! I also wasn't wearing any snow goggles or any eye protection of the sort, so that just made things even worse. I saw a field with ravine area behind it, so I randomly decided to shoot a video of the blowing pellets, hoping that it would stop soon and it did. Wow! I don't know if I just got lucky or what, because I was didn't think it was going to stop anytime soon, so I initially wanted to turn back, but thankfully I didn't have to.

PinballPro: A somewhat quick playthrough

This is a fun game coming from TerranDroid. To play you simply choose a table themed background of your choice, press and hold anywhere to launch the pinball, and then control it further by touching the right or left side of your screen to use the flips. Unfortunately, I was completely unaware that you were could even do that, hence why you don't see me doing this in the video... I thought the game was tilt based, only to figure it out very recently that it doesn't function that. Wow. Maybe I might do another playthrough at some point and keep that in mind if I decide to go for it. The Christmas table theme is my personal favourite in the game.

Tapwood with Woody Tap Tap!

Woody Tap Tap is a screen pounding game coming from Pigmalion Studios. The game is simple, but incredibly fun! You tap the tree repeatedly to keep your health bar up, while collecting coins and dodging branches. On most phones, you'd normally play by tapping the left or right sides of your screen, but because I played this game on a BlackBerry, I discovered that I could do this by smashing the A and D keys repeatedly and man is it fun! You can hear me furiously tapping the keys after the music dies down to give you an idea of hard I was going. It would've been slightly better if I could use L or P for the left side, but D is no problem. A lot of reviewers from Google Play have complaints about the ads, which can intrusive, but after achieving around 40,000 points you can make them disappear.

Asphalt8 - Twisty difficult adventures

In this playthrough of Asphalt 8, I play in Monaco with a Mercedes Benz Silver Lightning, Venice with a Lykan Hypersport, The Great Wall with a McLaren P1 and Tokyo Reverse with a SSC Tuatara. I mention in both the video and the description itself about how hard this recording session was because I wanted to upload these tracks without wrecking, so as a result it took a lot of tries! Despite using a car with poor handling on the Monégasque track, it was surprisingly the easiest to do out of the four. Maybe it could be the fact the Silver Lightning drifts really well? Tokyo and Venice were the most painful at first! The Great Wall was another toughie, but I eventually pulled it though and captured a session with all of them done without wrecks, though the driving could've been better on some of them. In Monaco I swung the car into the wall a little too often. Venice was a similar scenario, but not too bad in my opinion. I even managed to set a new personal record at the end. The ramp before the cave in the Great Wall was difficult to do a barrel roll on for some reason, but I still kept trying with no success... I wonder if you have to reach a certain speed or angle for that particular ramp? Now Tokyo. Tokyo is honestly pretty fun, but the high traffic level and sharp turns can also make it exceptionally difficult if you don't practice and get yourself familiarized with it. I had to really watch where I was going at all times, and drift carefully to avoid accidents. Speaking of accidents, the moment at 13:03 had me think I was going to wreck, but I was glad I didn't! I did suffer a great drop in speed in though...

Fire 'rains' down in FortMcMurray neighbourhood during escape

This video is hosted from the The Weather Network's YouTube channel, and it is absolutely insane! I've seen fire and burning forests on camera before, but nothing quite like this! The fire is raining down like a bunch of welding sparks onto the people's cars! Can you imagine what would've happened if someone had a gas leak or dropped something to ignite a fire? Certainly wouldn't be pretty... I know firefighters and professionals are doing all they can right now to stop the fires, but a quick look at recent news shows that the forest fire is still raging in certain areas, and has even spread a little into Northern Saskatchewan. This is a very terrifying, stressful situation for people to be in, so I pray that it will be over soon.

A Better Explanation

Alright, so let's face it: the “introductory” post to this blog was very weak, bland and uninspiring. Anyone who read it must have been like “What?”, “Huh?” or “That's it?” Because it was just way too short and even I personally think that it could've been better. Now while we're on the topic of it, you may be wondering why haven't I talked about my recent uploads here, or why I haven't put up much content on this blog when there's so much happening on YouTube right now. It's undeniably true that there is a lot of interesting things that I could be talking about over here, but I will generally only make a post if it's something that gets me very fired up, or if it's something that I saw and felt really stoked or passionate about. In other words, it just has to be interesting enough for me to make it worthy to talk about. That may or may not change, but I'll just go with that vibe for the time being.

So this brings us to the next point, perhaps the most interesting one really and that is: what's up with my channel? For quite a while, I thought this channel was created in 2011, but a quick check actually shows that it was put up in 2010 (January 4 to be an exact nerd), so it's been around longer than I had originally thought. When I was younger, I enjoyed watching lot's of YouTube videos, so I created a couple accounts to view or comment on videos. Because some of these accounts were quite a while back, a lot of them were probably deleted or I had their passwords forgotten, so one day I decided to make a “proper” main account and that's where my signature account, ATA1201058, came into play. I don't quite remember how or why exactly I chose that name, but I think it revolved around me wanting something that started with an “A”, but I couldn't think of a specific name or word, so I just went with an acronym-like title and tacked numbers onto it, to make it more unique. When I first launched this channel, I didn't really have intentions to upload videos, as my main intention was to just watch, comment, like, dislike and occasionally subscribe. A year later in November, I decided to put up some lame test animation that went by the name clock, which now goes by clock of boredom, since it was simply that: a video made out of pure boredom.

Since then, I hadn't uploaded a video for years. I still commented and watched, but my uploading activity was about as lively as a grocery store parking lot on a Sunday night, until suddenly, nearly 5 years later in 2016, my 2^nd video appeared! And not much longer after that, soon a third, fourth, fifth and beyond! So what gives? Why am I uploading more videos in 2016 versus the previous years? Well, there's actually a variety of reasons as to why that's so, but it's mainly due to inspiration from events in 2015 and the fact it's actually a lot of fun – except during video editing time! As anyone can tell from looking at my channel, here you'll find cruddy* outdoor videos of me filming random things. Typically trails or paths, but also things like campuses, schools, churches, fireworks, wild animals, volcanoes whatever. The other type of videos you'll find are game play videos, which has mostly been Asphalt 8 so far, but I'll do others at some point. Pretty soon actually...

Random outdoor events and games is definitely quite an odd combination, but I like it. Considering that my first video was an animation, does this mean that I'll do more animations? Unfortunately, my animation skills are lacklustre, so probably not, but I won't certainly won't say never. There is a folder sitting on my computer with frames of an unfinished work from years ago. I don't know if I'll ever decide to complete it, let alone publish it. I don't think there's anything else I want to say, so I guess that does it for this blog post. To anyone who actually took the time to find and read this, you now know what mysterious channel is all about.

Cruddy* = "Why are your outdoor shootouts so unstable and nauseating?" Well, it's the combination of my camera's lack of OIS and bouncy/shaky hands or movements. Is this ever going to improve? Yes, I'm hoping to resolve this sometime in the foreseeable future, but I can't promise when exactly it will happen. I will still shoot random things outdoors, because I certainly don't want to constrict myself from this type of fun, but won't do it too often and I'll do my best to keep improving the stability of my current somewhat lacklustre camera.

Introduction

Welcome to my blog. As the name suggests, I'll be using this blog to talk about anything pertaining to YouTube such as my channel, other channels, Youtube affairs, videos and whatever else that may interest me on that site.
