4th of July Video Blog!
Hello hello! I’m very tired, had a busy day and it was pretty tough since I hardly slept last night and the night before. I just uploaded my very first video blog! On Viddler.com they have a lot of viddlers who create simple video blogs called “Me Today”. Basically members just talk about their day, nothing fancy. I thought that doing a “Me Today” would be a pretty good starting point for me and my video recordings
I must say, it did feel pretty weird for me to talk to the camera haha! Seriously, when I started recording it’s like my mind went blank and I had to try to get words out of my mouth and try not to say “Ummm” every 5 seconds. So my “MeToday” in itself was pretty short but thank goodness for all the recordings I made throughout the day! Here it issss….
As you can see we had quite the show on our block, fireworks were being set off EVERYWHERE (you would think that these things were legal). I was especially surprised that there were still so many people with all of those fireworks after hearing about the cops seizing like 200 tons worth of illegal fireworks around here the other day. When we heard the news about the cops finding the fireworks we were all kind of bummed because we didn’t think we’d have our usual FREE fireworks show… but we were wrong! And that’s a good thing! Even though they took down the house that usually has the BEST fireworks show (I think they put the guy in jail)… our other neighbors really stepped up to the plate this year
haha. I can’t believe I’m talking about this… but this is seriously like a tradition… the 4th of July in the HOOD LOL… so anyways… yea, we had a great time, and Transformers the movie was AWESOME!
Guess that’s it, hope you all enjoy my first ATTEMPT at video blogging, hopefully it’ll get easier each time I do it..

That was cool, Maria! I slept through all the fireworks here so at least I finally got to see some..lol
Your audio/video sync is a wee bit off…but you probably know that
I think that your first video blog was great. And your eyes don’t look tired; they’re beautiful.
I really can’t believe the cops confiscated all those fireworks. Although I’m certain someone will have a explanation or reason to justify making these fireworks illegal, I feel that we should be able to possess and / or purchase fireworks in any state. In Indiana you’re required to sign a waiver stating that you’ll remove the said items (typically illegal ones in other states) within 3 days. If the government is so concerned about us using these fireworks to create improvised explosives, than perhaps they should require everyone to have a license to purchase them. That way they get some additional revenue and we get to blow shit up and have a good time.
@ Mike – Thanks! And yea, I have to figure out the audio/video sync, it was fine until it got uploaded to those sites, hmmm…
@ Chopper – Thanks for the compliment! Now I don’t feel so bad about being tired while recording myself
I think it’s pretty messed up to confiscate the fireworks, too. I think that having a license idea of yours is a great idea.
