Also 27th April 2013

Scrolling, scrolling, scrolling. I've been doing this for almost an hour now. I checked YouTube, Twitch, YouTube again and now I'm back on Twitch.

Why is finding the perfect video idea so damn hard?!

Ok, calm down, calm down. This just takes lots of patience that I don't have, that's all.

But this annoys me so much. I don't have that many requirements, just not too expensive, cheap is fine but should be impressive, and needs to be something I enjoy or find interesting. Ok, that sounds like a lot, but it's not that hard. For example: Being vegetarian in Minecraft, Only allowed to trade for items etc. And, before you say 'Why don't you do those then?', I've already done these videos, that's why I used them as examples.

I still don't see anything interesting.

'10,000 to beat Minecraft in 30 minutes!!'
- LeevieGamers' 

'Purposely failing Bedwars!
- Exelsus

'1 cent every time I get an achievement..'
- GeorgeeStreamss

Wait, what? This could be good. Let's check this out.

*15 mins later*

This guys server looks kinda like the one I play in. Do we play on the same server? I don't know, I'll check that out later. I'm gonna follow him to keep the video with me and because of the server thing. Oh, I should also write this down in my YouTube google docs. 

'Ideas: --.-- dollars every time I get an achievement or something else'

The doc isn't that organized but it's fine I guess, nobody else is gonna look at it.

But enough of that now, time to go out. Yes, it's 9 pm, and yes I'm stepping out, is there an issue?

That's what I thought.

I put on my windbreaker jacket and step outside into the pleasant spring wind. I love this weather dude. The summer wind is so hot and dry, the autumn one is light and feathery, the monsoon one is moist and heavy while the winter wind is just cold and harsh. But the spring wind....it's perfect, cold but not too cold, warm but not too warm, not light not heavy, just perfect. Well at least for me.

I sat down at a nearby bench and plugged in my earphones. I shuffled my playlist and 'Diamonds' by Rihanna was the first song to play. I took out a piece of gum from my pocket and started chewing it. Don't know if this is a bad habit, but I chew gum whenever I want to relax or I feel anxious and stressed. Today's case was thankfully the first one, unlike most days. I took out one earphone to listen to the breeze and so that the music doesn't scream in my ears. I closed my eyes and dissolved into my imagination.

The wind rushing through my hair, the music singing in my ears

'A vision of ecstasy
 When you hold me, I'm alive
 We're like diamonds in the sky'

This song really helped me calm my nerves. Probably my favourite Rihanna song, with Umbrella after it. That song will always be iconic.

I'm not a Rihanna fanatic or whatever, I just like a few songs. My favourite artist would probably be.. actually, I don't know-

Not really into the slow stuff, except when I just wanna chill out, but even then, not really. Catchy is good, but too much in a song is 'ehhhh'. Probably would say R&B or Blues was my favourite music genre. Not that I know many, but out of the ones I do know.

Anyways, enough about. The music in my ears faded out and I zoned out. 

I found myself thinking about the streamer whose video idea I took, GeorgeeStreamss. I don't know why, but I thought I should try and contact him. Maybe to check if he's okay with me using his video idea, maybe to see if he plays on the same server, I genuinely didn't know. I just thought I should contact him. So I kept this information in a place in my brain where I won't forget it.
