Hey Guys,
This is my first attempt at this – it’s choppy, it’s unedited, and it was done in one go (oh, not to mention that it has the most unappealing frame as the still on the player). I mentioned at the end that I don’t like vlogging – really it’s just the act of, I don’t really like watching myself afterwards with all those awful quirks and mannerisms that we all could live without. But check it out and tell me what to fix (not my face, I can’t fix that, kidding!) Oh, and the age for drinking is 19, my my bad!

Just watched your video – you are adorable : ) haha love the comment about how you steamed your belt : p
Congrats on the new job Gloria! :D
thanks jenny!
ahahha steaming is clearly the best thing of life.
Thanks for the shout outttt! Yes yes, it’s mo-les-kins.
But you did almost leak out our ideas. Because of that I insist that you eat out of the new plate :).

hahahhaa. totally. now you have to do a video. I should do one of those video tag things. gogogo.
HAHA, I loved the video! I’m laughing at 1) the alcohol part where after you advertised how great the drink was, you said “I’m not endorsing alcohol so if you’re underage, please disregard what I said in the last 30 seconds!” and b) the awesoooome shoes you bought and the comments you made after it like, “.. And you can’t buy them anywhere else, okay?” Hahahaha! In general, I really like your style! Really interesting, not boring, and I like when people update with things to show!
Congrats on your new job!!! What is it? On a second thought, it’s probably not too appropriate to mention it on a public blog. :P
As for the feedback, I would probably say the lighting! Because your back is to the sun, it creates a slight shadow in the front and it was also kinda straining to be looking at the direct sunlight through the camera. :P And also, maybe level the webcam/laptop at the proper head/shoulder level? It seemed like you were bending a little bit I got that impression, but the laptop should really be stacked a bit higher to make it more comfortable to view, sorta like the anchor people you see on TV. :P But then again, you already mentioned that your laptop was balanced on a stack of books. :P
DEFINITELY looking forward to more vlogging from you! :)
Hey Sandy!
Thanks for keeping in touch through this :) I know, the sun was a bit much but it’s always nice to have a hint of summer coming up.
I’ll work on it, this sucked but I’ll try, really!
The new job can’t be written on here – but if you want to get in touch elsewhere I can totally fill you in!
Hi gloria,
this video is a really cool idea, nice format, nice tone…
and I thought that my girlfriend was a shopping addict, now I really know what is a shopping addict ;-)
Moleskine are really cool, I have 4 of them, each as his particular use and I think that it will be difficult for me to move for another notepad brand.
take care.
Hey Franck(furt)!
Videos are the new black – and I hope you’re doing your research on where to take your girlfriend shopping in Toronto when she’s here :) If not you can cheat and get me to write her a list!
Moleskins are a must – though I do remember you having the classic black. That’s what you call ultimate brand loyalty!
But that’s the beauty of vlogging…seeing people act real so forget the editing and live with those quirks. AnyWHO! I enjoyed it..Thanks and PEACE!
Why thank you (: glad my awkwardies were of entertainment!
Gloria,
I LOVE the necklace you are wearing in your video. Where is it from? Great video by the way!
Hi Robyn! Funny story about the necklace – I actually bought a shirt from I think Fairweather about two years ago, it was a tube that had this chain loop through that I would tie around my neck. I just separated the two (so it’s now just a blue tube top and I have this “necklace”) – I love it! I think the style is getting pretty popular now though, you could probably find it at an Aldo accessories or something of that sort :)
Let me know how the search goes!
