It is currently 1:21 AM, and I am approaching my second day of school. I know I shouldn’t be up this late, but I just wanted to post my VOD. I decided when I looked at my subscriptions and saw the new Levi video, I knew I would probably just post it to save time. However, when I watched the video, I was shocked with how real it was.  As I watched the video, I though about how obsessed with my blog I’d become. For the past few months, it’s been a ‘quota’ I have to reach, and if I don’t reach it, then I am personally doing something extremely wrong. Anytime I saw the homepage of my blog, I would think “average views per day, 400; quota 16 views per hour” or “high view spike; average views per day 500; quota 21 views per hour.” It’s truly sickening how obsessive I’d become with this blog. Then one day, I reminded myself that during my first week on this blog, I’d gotten 16 views, and I’d be able to live with that. The thing is, I can’t even imagine the stress those same quotas and numbers put on youtubers. When I write, I sometimes write about my life, but I also write about videos and music and crazy people and everything in between; with youtube, the central objective is to let the world know who you are and about your life. When you think about it, I don’t actually let you into my life; when youtubers make videos, they let you into their world. It can take a personal toll on a youtuber when they don’t get attention or views; it can make them think they’re not good enough or not special enough to have the number of views that people so similar to them have. The point is that everyone on the internet with a certain obsession, whether it be blogging or making videos or even just making friends, needs to take a step back from their computer and say to themselves that they don’t need any of it. If every personal computer in the world crashed tomorrow, and every website on the internet disappeare...
