YouTube, Influences My Life?

    So yet again another post about my "YouTube adventures." Ready, get set, take a deep breath, here we go.  So I was watching videos of an image consulting channel, specifically about how to look "stylish" with a hat. So after seeing all the things this guy had to say I realized that in fact I liked the hats that I had. Which by the way I hated, prior to this video. Well this got me thinking that I actually was influenced by YouTube.
    Is not as bad as it sounds, if you think on it I'm not being influenced by an enterprise but rather by the people I meet on this little universe called the internet. The creepy thing is that they don't even know that I know them but in a way or another that is how they like it. They like the feeling that they have made a difference in someone's life and that someone is watching but they don't want to deal with these people from a day to day basis.  The perfect marriage.
    In one way or another it seems that everytime that I click on the search bar there is a new person willing, at any time of the day I happen to click on them, to teach me what they know.
This got me thinking that it doesnt mean anything bad by saying that I'm being influenced by YouTube because it just means that I was curious enough to look further into things that otherwise I would just shrugged my shoulders and say "I  guess we'll never know."

New year, new aspect on life

So I've been looking at YouTube videos today. Specifically I was watching at the trending videos and found a bunch of channels by Chinese-American kids that although they don't seem to have many friends individually speaking they seem to have a friendship "trans-channel" that many times seems to bring them together in real life, either thru conventions co-starred videos or whatever. I digress but in the mids of everything I found this kid that reminded me of what I used to be like; outgoing sympathetic and overall happiness just exuded out of me.
After watching all of this I saw my own reflection in the mirror and what I saw was, a lonely, depressed looking kid that pretty much looked like a mess :l
On this new year I now have a new outlook on life, and in  way, a new purpose. That is to be myself and not just lay in bed and not do anything with my life. Let's hope that this is not just a "thing" that just passes by but something that seems to stick with me for the better.
BTW now finally I have a room all to myself so perhaps that might help me a to define even more my own individuality and over all myself evolution :)
