YouTube Gamers = Life

So Friday June 27, 2014 at roughly 2:15 pm, my favorite series on my favorite channel ended. In it's running time, there were roughly 126 episodes with specials littered throughout. 

Treetopia was (and will remain) my favorite Minecraft series because it was one of the few places I could watch all of my favorite gamers in one spot. Although it had to come to an end, I know it was within good reason. In watching the montage of the entire series, I became even sadder. 

I sat down and watched Treetopia in about a week (at the time, 80-ish episodes with two specials) and in that time, I became attached. I sat and laughed each time Kootra died at James' hand, and I laughed when Seamus' house was the last one standing. I'll miss this series, but I can always just rewatch it. ;)

If you've never watched thecreaturehub on YouTube, you are so missing out. They're all hilarious and they're total sweethearts. 

SSOHPKC is my favorite creature. :)
Uberhaxornova is my favorite creature, too. :)

I hope your day is as lovely (if not lovelier) as you are!!

Reason I'm Going Blind #123189472381987

Hi guys, how has your day been? :)

For those of you that don't know, (which is almost all of you) I'm a gamer with PC as the choice of platform. Usually I play MineCraft because I like being able to pick on the villagers. >:3 

Today was not one of those days, however. 

"Woah! Those floating pictures in the servers are super awesome! I'm going to try that!" I said to myself, not realizing how hard/strenuous it actually is. 

For those of you that don't know, those floating pictures are called pixel art. It looks super simple if your eyes are good and can count quickly, but for those of us that can't it's super freaking hard! My eyes are already terrible (I'm legally blind without my glasses on) but I'm sure that focusing on a small square and counting said squares is making them even worse.

The first pixel art I ever did was one of Eren Yeager (one of the main characters in the anime Attack on Titan) and I didn't really have a good template for it so I was straining my eyes even more. Most templates you use have lines drawn so it's easier to count squares this one, however, did not.

The picture I'd chose to recreate on my world was an pixel drawing with no easy way to count pixels. It took me about three hours before I was done and I never wanted to do it again (totally did it again). My back was hurting and my eyes felt dry and I wanted to scream.

The end result was pretty awesome, I'm not gonna lie. Had the process getting to that result been easier, I would've been soooo much happier, but it looked good and that's all that matters right?


Pretty good, huh? :)

Well hello!




My name is Annie and I am 15 years old. You may be asking, "Why did a 15-year-old start a blog about her life?" and that's a good question. 

I decided to make this blog for myself to post day-to-day life with all of its ups and downs. I like to think of it as a creative outlet for myself, and maybe even the others that read this blog in the future. This blog will be the place that I come to share my experiences, thoughts, writings, and anything else I decide to come up with. 

If you end up enjoying the things I post, I'd love for you to comment! (Click where it has the amount of comments and a pop-up box for the comment will show up!)

I hope you all have a day that is as lovely as you are!
