I totally dropped the ball on YouTube and even blogging here, I know. It\u2019s partly one of those things, where you stop and can\u2019t start again\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m not sure why or what happened either, can\u2019t quite put a finger to it. But I guess that\u2019s the case with mental health issues. I was just unable to do anything productive outside of work\u2026 Weekends just felt that they were never enough, but at the same time they were not spent productively\u2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m feeling much better now. Took me two weeks to edit last week\u2019s video, but edit it and upload it I did. Now working on today\u2019s video since yesterday was spent cubing\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yeah, this does not bode well for a YouTuber career\u2026 But yeah\u2026. As much as I love content\u2026 I guess I don\u2019t love it enough (at least not yet) to be able to push through everything and do it really consistently. That said, stamina (or the lack thereof) has ALWAYS been my weakness, regardless of whatever I do. And it was also my greatest worry coming into this YouTube video making project. (Still, WAYY too early tow orry about this at the moment, so yeah, whatever.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve pretty much exhausted my pre-recorded videos, and I really need to record a lot more stuff now. Thankfully Monday AND Tuesday are both public holidays. Hurrah for the mega long weekend. I *need* to get a bunch of recording (and editing) done then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not just need, I really *want* to. I have new supplies, lots of cool stuff\u2026 But I want to do unboxing on camera and\u2026 Yeah. So I need this table packed and ready for filming\u2026 Gotta find out how to set up my new microphone\u2026 Yeah lots of stuff to be done to get back in business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Really looking forward to be playing with all my fancy stuff again. Also really gald for the new mike. I tested it out briefly and it worked wonders. No wind noise even though my fan was blasting at me. With the weather these days, I REALLY need the fan on or I\u2019ll start dripping sweat in 5 mins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ok, I\u2019ll end this post here. Gonna grab some lunch and continue editing the video\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yeah. I totally dropped the ball on YouTube and even blogging here, I know.
