The plane ride actually wasn't bad, usually there are screaming babies, people that snore incredibly loud, earphones turned up way to loud, or there is the kid behind you kicking your seat until they can tell you are starting to get annoyed.
I'm realxing, keeping in touch with my fans. All the incredibly popular youtubers post on twitter and youtube, but then they never reply. That bugs me. Your subscribers are like your family. You should treat them that way.
Someone lightly touches me on the shoulder.
I must of jumped two feet, well, at-least that's what it seemed like.
"Uh, Hi." A girl says around the age of 12, "Are you JocelynPlays on YouTube?"
"Yeah, I am. Would you like an autograph or anything?" I say, turning in my seat facing her. I pat the empty seat next to me, gesturing for her to sit if she'd like. I'd hate for her to get yelled at by someone that works on the airline.
She sits down. "Can I get a photo?" She asks, kind of shyly.
"Sure thing, I'd be honored." I reply, laughing a bit.
"Okay, 1..2..3.. Smile!"
She takes the picture. I pull out my phone opening up the camera app.
"You take photos of your fans? I thought usually the fans are the only ones to do that."
"I'm not sure about other youtubers, but I do. I love metting them. I say this all the time, but fans are family."
I take the picture and post it to twitter and instagram. The caption saying "Hey guys&gals. I'm on the plane to pax and I'm already meeting fans. Jenni was the first one. Follow her instagram&twitter @Jenni."
"Wow thanks, You just posted that and I'm already gaining tons of followers."
"No problem, Want anything signed before the plane lands and we go our seperate ways?"
"Uh, hmm. Can you sign my phone case and t-shit?"
After I said goodbye to her she went back to her seat and I got on twitter. I decided to give her a follow. She was a sweet girl and it'd probably make her day. I know if I was her and the person I looked up too followed me I'd be happy for days.
The plane landed. I went over and grabbed my luggage. I saw MunchingBrotato, aka Tyler walking towards the other luggage claim. Guess we got on different planes at the same time.
"Ohh Brotatooo" I yell.
"Jocelyn? Is that you?"
"You bet. In the flesh."
He comes over and gives me a hug.
"Nice too finally see you."
"Right back at ya." I reply. "Didn't expect to see you until pax
"We still have a few hours, want to go out and go around town, before we have to set up our booths?" I ask, not expecting him to say yes.
"Sure, I have to meet up with a youtuber named BajanCanadian, His real names Mitch. You heard of him?"
"He lives in canada right?"
"Yep"
"Ahh, He sounds familiar."
"I'll call him up and see if it's okay for you to join."
"If it's gonna interrupt anything, then don't worry about it."
"Nah I think we'll be okay with you tagging along." We're walking out of the airport. We take a photo and post it to twitter. Gosh- I seem to be doing that a lot more then I probably need too.
"Okay, Sounds like a plan."
