- I am incredibly narcissistic. Ever since discovering Twitcam, I have had reckless thoughts of broadcasting every tedious detail of my life for all to see, like some incredibly boring reality TV show. Episodes will in include "Mel cleans her room", "Mel watches The Office instead of studying", and "Mel blogs about blogging. Again."
- I am a champion Chatroulette troll. My favourite trick is asking chatters if they'd like to hear about Jesus. "Do you know that Jesus loves you?", "would you like me to pray for you?" I could go on in a bikini and still be next'd in under a minute. I'm just that skilled.
- Vlogging is the new blogging. And, in case you were wondering, no, there isn't any aspect of my life that's too tedious to be filmed and uploaded to Youtube. My shopping list? Uploaded. An epic retelling of my latest hair experimentation? Uploaded. A dramatically narrated filming of me clipping my toenails? You got it. Uploaded! Yes, I'm turning into one of those people. Feel free to unfollow the moment I post a photo of myself in the bathroom mirror.
And on that last note, I think it's well and truly time to take MLHL into the audio visual realm. That's right. Since I have decided that onscreen suits me, my first vlog post is on its way.
How I feel normally
How I feel in front of my Logitech C120 Webcam*
However, to pull this off I need your help. When I tried to come up with a topic for my first vlog, I was rendered speechless.** I can type up a storm, but it turns out recording my thoughts on video is a whole nutha story.
Since I'm too lazy unable to come up with a topic for my vlog post, how about I get you to do all of the work for me? Since I assume you all spend many a sleepless night wondering what brand of toothpaste I use and how many times I've traveled overseas, I'm going to give you the opportunity to ask. That's right! I will be answering all of your questions in my first ever vlog post!
Just leave me all of your previously unspoken musings about yours truly in the comments section.
Questions you ask might include:
How is someone as amazing as you still single?
Mel, will you be the God mother of my baby?
Oh Mel, will you ever learn?

You know how I already had two guest posts in the last month? Well guess what's happening on Friday? That's right, another guest blogger! I'm over the moon excited about this one.
Remember Kris, who I raved about in my last post? She will be posting here as part of the first ever Bloggerstock. I've read her post and between you and me, I'm not 100% sure I'm happy to post it. Say what you like about me, but I'm not thrilled about the best piece my blog has seen being posted by someone else.
Just promise me that however much you love her, you'll always love me more. Promise? PROMISE?
*DON'T Google that. Or do. Whatever. The cam was cheap, ok! But so am I. I can own that.
**Mum, if you're reading this, stop laughing. Also, how the hell did you find my blog?!




Mel, You really are a courageous (and funny) woman. Web cam photos of me always look like mug shots. Good luck with the vlog!
ReplyDeletecj - Thank you! I'd like to say I just turn out like that, but in reality the first thing I did when I set up my cam was practice my chatting pose and my webcam-photo pose. Shameless!
ReplyDeleteIf i was ever going to do chatroulette (and i'm not sure i can look at that many naked men in a row), I would totally be stealing that line. Everyone needs to hear about Jesus!
ReplyDeleteJust do interpretive dance for your blog. Everyone can enjoy that, right?
Dear Mel,
ReplyDeleteNobody ever sang "Keep your knees together, daughter" to me and so I never learnt that lesson. This boy says he loves me, but he says he wants to be with another girl. I love this boy. Should I let him be with her if he promises to love me forever?
Do you think he likes her more because I'm getting fat?
Please help, dear Mel.
Yours,
Sixteen and in LOVE.
But I love your blog and Kris's? Why must you make us choose?
ReplyDeleteI left a large comment but it didn't get published, I think it's a sign that I shouldn't repeat what I said...oh well :(
ReplyDeleteMel, you are hilarious. Just be warned I may not watch your life, as I'll be busy getting my own ;). jk
ReplyDeleteI agree with Allison. People should be allowed to love us both.
(ps, Allison. I know who the Habs are, and am all for them.) Teehee
I signed up for the next blogstock thing.
ReplyDeleteAlso, thanks Kris! - You guys both entertain me in different ways :)
Coyote Rose - I agree with everything you just said. The naked men, the Jesus thing, and interprative dance.
ReplyDeleteRisha - Good question. I assume we're talking about your friend here..
Allison - You must choose!!
Ella - you know I'm going to go insane with curiosity now, don't you?
Kris - I HOPE that was a joke!
My question (ponderance, actually) is:
ReplyDeleteTell us what you would do if you had the Jo Bros at your house for one night.
No, I kid.
If girls with large breasts work at Hooters, then do girls with one leg work at IHOP?
Ha. Jokes.
If you had to go back in time and change one thing, if you HAD to, even if you had “no regrets” what would it be?
AND
Which would you choose, true love with a guarantee of a heart break or have never loved before?
TAKE THAT. Bam!
Heather - Those are excellent questions. And that JoBros one is going to take my vlog to a whole new place. Eeek!
ReplyDeleteMel - I (heart) you because you can relate to my awkward moments with men
ReplyDeleteKris - I (heart) you because you're a fellow Canadian and your blog makes me smile.
I won't choose!
"Oh Mel, will you ever learn?" seriously cracked me up!
ReplyDeleteOkay, questions.
Nah, I got nothing that wouldn't start an agrument or that isn't inappropriate.
Shinxy - thank you for your self control. I've had horrible visions of myself on cam blushing and stuttering myself through an answer to one of your risque/contentious questions.
ReplyDeleteI can somewhat relate. I love my new cam!
ReplyDeleteBobby - are we going to see the Booyabobby reality web series soon? ;)
ReplyDeleteHahaha Mel. I would so watch your vlog series. :)
ReplyDeleteTabitha - I really hope you don't come to regret that. :-s
ReplyDeletehiiiiiyaaaaa hope you remember me ;)
ReplyDeletewhat is the most important lesson that you have learnt so far after coming up with this BLOG? :)
Amogh! Thanks for a very good question. And of course I remember you! :D
