Hey, everyone. I wanted to take some time to thank you all for all the support over these past two years (or even more!). At the same time, I'm also going to play my music into your ears. It's been a great ride so far and hopefully you feel the same way. There's been a lot of fun and some frustration but I don't regret it a bit.

Along the way, I've met a lot of really cool people and made some great friends. When I started doing videos for this channel, I was pretty much a shut-in, overweight, low confidence -- etc. It really shows in my first video how far I've come, I think.

Over the years, though, I gained a lot of confidence and completely changed myself for the better. I got so many kind words from so many people about how they were enjoying my commentary and videos. After a lot of weird looks and remarks from the family, I never would have imagined I'd do this well -- at all.

Sparked by every subscriber, every comment, every view -- I became determined to change myself. I lost over 80 pounds thanks to that (and some exercise too)! Every time I got a subscriber, comment, anything, I would read it, view their channel, anything. I wanted to know about each and every person who watched my videos, to know about them and connect with them. I felt that I could change if I just kept on being positive and dedicated, and I was able to -- thanks to you.

I started going to a local community college (still am, as of writing this) in hopes of getting a better job than the one and only I've had. While pharmacy is enjoyable, it's definitely not my calling -- I really love being able to make music and videos to share with everyone.

I met many great friends through YouTube, and even my current girlfriend. I never thought that, if I started doing this, any of these things would happen. It's been really surprising in such a good way.

Ever wondered how I got started on Let's Plays? It actually all began with a Japanese game called Yume Nikki. The game is really confusing (on purpose, I'm sure!), so I tried to find a walkthrough for it. Doing this, I stumbled upon LoudMan01's great LP (which was still in progress at the time).

I followed his playthrough all the way to the very end and loved it. By the time it finished, I felt really sad -- like I just got done reading the best chapter of a book and would never experience it again. Loudman and I ended up becoming bros; he's really seriously awesome.

After a while of him and I being friends, I ended up coming across some money and randomly asked him if I should try my hand at making videos. Naturally, he encouraged me, so I started off with a dinky little capture card and took a stab at this.

I was really discouraged at first, because I didn't get many responses from anyone about it, but had a few people encourage me to continue. So, I kept on going and things worked out! I don't know if it always works out, but it did this time!

Anyway, that's just a little story about me, how I got started on this, and how it has changed my life.

Thank you for watching, listening, and commenting. I hope you continue to enjoy my videos for ever and EVER! Wahahahah!

If you like ANY of these songs, please check out my bandcamp page. All of them are available at a pay-your-own-price plan, so you can get everything free or pay anything. If you want to donate for my videos, music, or sheer charity -- please feel free to do it through there. I can give you something in return, at least! And a big thanks. I'll thank you.

Unfortunately, I don't make any money from my YouTube videos or music (yet), and I am in a bit of debt from school and other things. Ideally, some down the road, I'd love to be able to just make videos and music every day. If it meant I could survive off of it, I would simply upload videos. Daily. A lot! That's a lot more LPs than I get done now, for sure!

By now, I'm running out of things that I'd like to say! So! As always, I hope you've enjoyed the video, and I hope to see you next time. Please leave a comment or anything. Have I changed your life in any way, like you guys/gals changed mine?

Take it easy!
