Happy Halloween (it's one of my favorite holidays tonight)

Isn't this a great holiday?

It's that awesome time of year again, it's Samhain, my favorite Holiday! Well, that and Christmas. Halloween is here, and you can feel it in the air. It's that time of year when all the ghouls come out to play, and people trick or treat looking for something sweet. AND...horror movies!! My favorite part of Halloween! I am watching Halloween 2 right now as we speak, and it's Halloween Eve, almost midnight. 

Having the best Hallow's Eve

Couldn't think of a more epic way to spend Halloween! I'm not sure if I'm gonna get a mask or anything for tomorrow night, we shall see. Could be fun, as always. I don't know if I'll go anywhere, but at the very least, I'm gonna watch horror movies! 

Doing my favorite activities

I might even go on a Ghost Hunt since I do love paranormal investigating. It's one of my passions! I'm in a very good mood..and I hope you have an AWESOME HALLOWEEN!! 

Do you love Halloween too? Or Samhain, whatever you like to call it. Leave a comment and let us know how much you love it. We'd love to hear from you.

Feeling blessed (random thoughts)

I took a few vacation days in the city near where I live. It was a nice break. Sometimes we all need a break.

Then I got back to making YouTube videos. I love making videos but sometimes I get burned out on it.

I'm thankful for all my blessings, God is good. It's finally fall but it still feels like summer here in Missouri.

Our weather is so wild here. We don't really have seasons in the same way other places do. It can get warm right in the middle of winter sometimes.

I had someone ask me today about my blog and how he could set one up. I told him blogger.com blogs are awesome.

I've always been a fan of blogger.

Why fixing a bad attitude in life is important (blog post)

A bad attitude can literally block blessings from coming into your life. I have learned this more and more. I have had problems with my attitude for a long time, ever since I can remember.

I am learning as I go along to be more grateful for everything I have. God has been so good to me. Sometimes we just need some perspective, to stop and look around, and realize how good we have it.

Life is good

When we truly see that, how can we have a bad attitude?

Life is really amazing. You just have to look around. Focus on all the great things you have going in your life. 

Be happy, not sad

Everyone has something to be grateful for. Each and every one of us. Be grateful every day and things will just get better and better for you.

What's considered "selling out"? (making money online)

When it comes to making money online? What would you consider "selling out"? A lot of people think that putting ads on your blog or YouTube videos is selling out.

It's really not. Lots of people make money online from blogging, YouTube, affiliate marketing, and so on.

Lots of ways to make money online

There's nothing wrong with that. It's a real business for many people. So why do people judge them for that?

I understand some people don't like ads on a website, but realistically, it's commonplace now. Even on YouTube.

Advertising online is normal

Almost every video has ads on it now. People have to make a living. You can't fault them for that. I personally think it's awesome if a blogger is able to make money from it; more power to them!

I don't feel like it's selling out to place ads there. It's just a part of the whole package deal. I don't feel like it takes away from the experience at all, in my opinion. 

Being a YouTuber comes with a lot of pressure (quick rant)

I feel like there's all this "pressure" when you're a YouTuber. I guess there's pressure with lots of things in life, but as a YouTuber, there's all this pressure to make "quality content." What does that even mean?

If I make a video that I had fun making and I'm doing what I enjoy, that's all that matters to me. I don't want to be like everyone else on YouTube.

That takes away the fun of it for me. I just want to have fun making the type of videos that I want to make.

I mean sure I can always strive to make my content better, but I'm not going to sell out. I have a passion for making vlog type videos. That's what I like doing.

I need that timesheet ASAP (Office Cat meme)

Office cat is very busy

Office cat

He needs that timesheet ASAP. He'll stand outside your office meowing until it's done. He is very much a business cat. He's trying to get work done. You have to understand that. He is very professional. Would you expect any less from a true business cat? He works in an office of a large corporation. 

He is very efficient at getting the job done. He knows his business stuff very well. He is a great business cat. He has paperwork on his desk that he's shuffling through. 

This is such a funny meme

I love the office cat memes. They're hilarious. I first saw this meme a long time ago. 😃

"Cats are the best because they are heckin' cool." - Some rando on the internet

It's pretty popular because it's a cat that works in an office. Just imagine something like that. It's really funny to think about.

Cat memes are great

This is just another reason why I love internet memes. They make the world go round. When you see one of a cat in a business suit, and he's a professional, it really makes you smile.

This is one of the cat pictures that just make your day.

Summer's not over yet! (blog)

A lot of people say that summer is ending. Whenever school goes back into session, a lot of people assume that summer is over. The fact is summer ends on September 22nd. I personally love to enjoy summer as much as possible. Summer is one of my favorite times of the year, so I like to make the most of it.

Two kids swimming in a pool having fun.

Just because school is back in session doesn't mean the warm weather and fun are over. I am still celebrating.

Have been hanging out with some really cool people and having some fun. 

Life is good

I've been making more YouTube videos on my new channel and that has been fun as well.

I'm going to try to keep the momentum up with this blog and keep posting on it. I appreciate you reading the blog, that's pretty awesome.

I plan on doing some more fun stuff for the rest of the summer. 

Want to have a great summer

I'm going to squeeze as much out of it as possible.

What a great time of year to be around amazing people. Tonight's Friday eve so I'm going to stay up all night. It will be great. Hope the rest of your summer is incredible if you're reading this. Remember to get out there and have some fun!

He's making money online!

Surveys are a great way to make some extra money online. Anyone who is trying to work from home should not overlook them.

How long have online surveys been around?

Surveys have been around a long time. It's known as market research. You're helping companies gather data so they can improve their products and services.

You simply fill out questions about your demographics and stuff like that. Usually, the surveys are pretty short.

Tags are a tool that has been around for a long time, since the beginning of YouTube. They are an effective way of driving more views to your channel.

There have been studies showing that videos with more tags get more views overall.

They help YouTube know what your videos are about. As long as you don't overuse them or use them the wrong way.
