Hey. Firstly, you don’t have to answer this question if you don’t want to. How do your peers at school etc. react when they see your YouTube channel and site etc? [As asked on FormSpring]

Good question!

At first people thought it was kind of “out there”, but I think as time went on, people thought it was just a “thing”. Just like anyone else plays basketball, or is a “bookworm”, so I had a website and have a bunch of viewers.

I was nervous at first too, and I always have trouble with the line “don’t worry what others think”, but I just did it. It’s become more of a topic of conversation now with me. Maybe always in a joking way, but never anything truly bad.

Have I gotten the occasional strange, or awkward comment? Sure, but it bounces off.

Maybe I’m just lucky. But I’m not the ONLY one, you know :)

If your keyboard and mouse is on top of your desk, where do you do your writing/school work? [As asked on FormSpring]

// June 20th, 2010 // No Comments » // Community, Education, General, How To, Life, School

Valid point…

I believe I have answered this one before, but essentially, I still have plenty of room. For one, I have an empty keyboard tray under my right-hand desk. Two, I can easily put my laptop on a shelf under that same desk and then I have a totally empty (just about) desk to use for writing – and mind you, that is what I sometimes do. I can also just push my laptop backwards on that same desk to make tons more room for writing.

But I think more so than all of that, is the fact that most of my work is done on my computers. Most of it is all typing, or writing, and so on. I would say about %90 of my school work can be done on my computer.

That answer your question? :)
