Hey guys!
So this is going to be a very quick announcement/update kinda video
I think this might be the first of its kind that I've done on this channel
in years!
I don't talk about myself much on this channel
But I figured for those of you that don't follow me on my 2nd channel
where I do more of that...
I should probably do some here every once in a while
So to fill you in on what I've been doing recently
I announced this on Facebook and Twitter I believe
I quit my full time job!
I've decided that I'm going to do YouTube as my main focus this year
I'm not really sure how it's gonna go
I don't make that much money off of Google AdSense
So in order to make up for the income that I would've been getting from my full time job
I will have to do some sponsored videos
I hope you guys can understand that
I will do my best to keep them relevant and interesting for you
Just know that those sponsored videos are what are allowing me to
continue to live in Japan and make videos
And the money that I get from those
basically goes back into everything that I do for this channel
Travelling and what not
That is actually my main goal for this channel this year
I want to bring you guys more of Japan, not just Tokyo
Because I've been living here for a couple years now
and I've been so busy with work
that I haven't been able to travel much to make videos outside of Tokyo
Honestly that is what I love about Japan the most
I lived up in Northern Japan for 3 years
and it's my favourite spot in Japan
So I'm gonna try really hard to get back up there a few times this year
and make lots of videos and show you guys why I loved it so much
and why it's such a beautiful place
I actually just got back from a 3 day road trip
with Abroad in Japan & Rachel and Jun!
and we filmed some awesome videos up in Northern Japan
So look out for those on this channel
and I did some vloggy/follow us around in the car type stuff for my 2nd channel
so if you're interested in that, go subscribe to that channel too!
Yeah, so that's my life update!
I quit my full-time job, but I still have several part-time jobs
so YouTube is not my only focus right now
but I definitely have a little bit more time for it now
So that is amazing! This is really exciting for me :D
Maro says hi!
Maro! Come say hi!
Come here! Say hi!
Hyper. As usual.
Lots of you are asking me when I'm gonna be putting videos out on his channel
Honestly, as soon as possible
He needs to be neutered. I'm hoping that will calm him down...
At the moment he's just super psycho happy cat
that runs around in circles in my apartment all day
that's honestly all he does
So yeah, once he calms down a little bit
I'll be doing some cute videos with him
He's eating my clothes hangers...
I have a couple things filmed, but they need to be edited
Hopefully I'll get those up soon!
Thank you for your patience!
Ok so, other than life update stuff...
There are some big THANK YOUS that I want to make to people!
First of all, to all of YOU guys!
I have a quarter of a million subscribers o_o
a quarter of a million!!
That's such a huge number, and it's kind of intimidating...
to think that that many people are subscribed to my channel
but it's also very cool!! So thank you guys so much for your support
I get to continue making videos and showing you guys what I love about Japan
and that's honestly what I really love doing
and if it weren't for you guys, I wouldn't be able to do that
so thank you SO MUCH for everything! I love you guys!
2nd big thank you is to Pug-Chan!
Who made my amazing banners!
for my main channel, and my second channel
She is just the coolest artist that I know
and I'm so proud to call her my friend <3
and she was so lovely to make those for me!
So big thank you to her!!
If you guys would like to commission her to do some art for you
You can contact her on Twitter
I will put her Twitter link and website and stuff down below
So definitely check her out! Lovely person, amazing artist, I love her so much!
And the next big thank you is to another amazing artist
that drew the coolest picture of me, dressed up like sailor moon
and I have Maro with me
and it is just so cool!
So if you guys would like to see the whole process of how he drew this picture here:
You can go over to his channel and he has a video of himself drawing it
So check that out!
He also drew Miranda, the famous Mexican YouTuber that's been in a few of my videos
So if you're into art and drawing and all that, go check out his channel!
And yeah, I think that's all the updates for now!
Thanks for watching guys! I will probably...
Maro just turned off the light >_>
Really? Really???
Alright, we're gonna finish this video in the dark
So yeah I'll probably do one of these life/channel update things every once in a while on this channel
But most of that stuff will be over on my 2nd channel
So follow me there if you don't already!
Thanks for everything guys! See you soon! Bye! :D
