hi guys i'm taz and i finally get to do one of these i'm vlog things
everyone else has done one some have even done two but now it's my turn looking forward to watching
this then i am although you're a bit early what well it's supposed to start on the hour
and it's currently 59 minutes and 45 seconds yeah but i'm ready to watch it now so 11 10 9
8 7 shall we six five four three shall we just get on with watching it sure two seconds late
said anyway i'm sure that it's worth the wait so here it goes
what makes me mad well i'd like to say that i'm one of life's effortlessly chilled people
who gets mad at nothing what are you doing look at this mess maybe there has been a few
occasional moments where i've let myself get wound up by people she is a complete nightmare
like when i first arrived here i don't think i was exactly at my best that day
i think i came across as a bit moody moody you could see that or you could say totally
out of control don't be mean floss yeah we all know arriving at this place isn't exactly easy
i had no idea what ashton rich would be like
but one thing that i really didn't expect was that someone would take the time so to try and
get to know me tasman it's taz i didn't make it easy for jody this is cool but she's stuck at it
yeah she tried to find things to cheer me up he used to help me sleep
when i first got here you know i was scared of anything for some strange reason jody just
got me right let's see what you're made of and because she was so thoughtful it made
me think that maybe life here wouldn't be as bad as all that and i hope one day i can
pass on the kindness she showed me if someone else is having a bad first day in the future
anyway let's move on my thing
let's just say it's a bit complicated did you ever have something that makes you amazingly happy
and really really sad at the same time well that's what playing the piano is like for me
making music is just the best i even enjoy practicing that feeling that you're getting
better at it but the trouble is it also brings back so many sad memories that's why it's
complicated when i first came to the dg i didn't ever play the piano no one even knew that i could
but i liked the feeling that i could play it if i wanted to which made mike's latest brainwave
such a terrible idea nobody ever plays it it's going somewhere to be used well
i think we should keep it you haven't given me one good reason why well it it looks nice it's
old and we're not getting rid of you are we taz what is so special about this piano hey
i tried to keep my disappointment hidden
i even hatched a crazy plan to hide it in the garage
but that was never gonna work with certain people on the prowl what you doing face it nothing gets
past these eyes and ears it's like a superpower yeah super snooper more like to be fair to mike
even though his piano selling idea was one of his worst he did notice that it upset me my
dad used to teach me but my mum went to heaven he just stopped stuffed everything
it's just sad all the time like i say it's complicated me and the piano
but imagine when you grew up that was your job how awesome would that be
although i know from experience it wouldn't be that easy
you need to get yourself out there make sure that people can hear what you can do
and that can sometimes mean thinking outside the box and outside the rules
i know i shouldn't have snuck off into town like that but
it was an emergency i thought dad was short of money that maybe i could help
my dad means everything to me i'm an only child so he's all i've got
he's kind and clever last time you came up to here no that's a lie and loads and loads of
fun at bay worth thank you for taking such great care of her and my mum's amazing too
was amazing i would have loved the chance to spend more time with her
but i was really little when she got sick and you know
but what i have found is that i remember more about her than i think i do
like that weird singing thing in my sleep i do sometimes confused floss recorded it when
i was asleep i mean what am i even singing here i've even tried playing it backwards
it sounds like a different language all we know is that you were born in the philippines
but the truth is taz there's not much there's 17 official languages there 17.
it looked hopeless trying to figure it out until what are you doing
you've been doing little actions with your hands but what do they mean
it looks like it looks like i'm eating something it was crazy the weird hand movement thingy was
the key to the secret all along m a n i it's a peanut in tagalog wait that's it
it was my mom i remember now it's a rhyme about food my mom used to sing it
to me when i was little that was pretty cool detective work from chloe hang on
it was me who sneakily crept into our room and filmed that even though i knew she didn't
want me to so i should get some credit too super snooper does it again okay so what do we have now
it's always hard to admit your weaknesses but what i've learned about myself
is that sometimes i can get a little over competitive i wouldn't say you're over competitive
really no it's much much worse than that more like absolutely desperate to win and a terrible loser
go home go home so yeah i do love winning
and that means that losing can make me a bit cross you know it's actually much
more difficult to improve your golf when your club is smashed into tiny
little pieces did i talk all the way through your vlog which was less good than mine anyway
actually sometimes it can even be some of the silliest things that bring out my competitive side
like making slime i didn't know you knew how to make slime yep it was a scientific experiment
science and slime the perfect combination i'm inventing a new slime recipe
for a science contest young scientist brackets north east region deadlines 4 pm today
what surprise a life-size robot called robert cool can i help i'm excellent science
i am it's not even that i'm competitive all the time
it's just when certain people press my buttons then i 100 have to beat them
i simply had to be joseph at the slime challenge whatever it took yep that's icing sugar oh
i thought it was corn flour rule number one of science read the labels first i may have got
so desperate to be the dg slime queen and get one over on joseph that i started to
think about some shortcuts so yeah he got me so mad that i cheated a tiny bit i present to you
rainbow unicorn super slimerama oh you cheated but mine was too thin
it's supposed to be your own recipe that's the rule
why are the measurements in american joseph huh cups not grams you printed this off the internet
mine was too sick you really shouldn't cheat you know yeah i know but we both did it though
anyways my cheating was much better than his i did learn an important lesson that day which is
when it comes to making slime it's not the one in that mouse it's a taken path
great sticky power partner
well this one's simple my dream is to be with my dad i love being with him he's got so many
stories and things to teach me so you were helping granted at the restaurant that's right
and it had been a long day we were all exhausted but these two men rushed in i said
very close but well your mom wouldn't take no for an answer dad why are you crying
although i know he's not ready to look after me yet
the time may not be right yet but it will be one day and you know
even if he wants to get married again it's fine by me
whatever makes him happy as long as he lets me
help him do the picking that's one thing he certainly can't be trusted to do on his own
and you go past my knees ready i'll be ready too until then the dj will do just fine more than that
this place is home with loads of friends who've become like family and never a dull moment plus
loads of people to beat stuff what more could a girl ask for
so that's me done thanks for watching see ya that was good thanks and it's got me thinking right
about some recent advances in slime research well i bet scott maylie would love to take
part in an important experiment just what i was thinking we owe it to science to find out
you
