Do you ever get that feeling when some one special gives you a compliment on a day when you think it couldn't get any better? Well, I'm feeling exactly like that right now, except multiply it by 10 million, and you have the feeling I'm experiencing right now. I just got invited to VidCon and millions of people on Twitter are congratulating me.

I can't even believe how far I've come from where I've first started. A couple of years ago, I was just a nerd who loved video games, now I'm still a nerd who loves video games, but I make people happy by playing those video games. Thousands of people watch me and they laugh, scream, cry, and cheer along with me. Do you know how awesome that feels? And in 1 week, I get to actually see those fans. Ugh, I don't know if my heart can take all the warmth and love I'm feeling right now.

Anyway, it's 10 in the morning, and I'm playing Prop Hunt with my friend, whose also a famous YouTuber, Nicole. When I became famous, she was the 1st person to actually play a game with me. We've become like sisters ever since.

"Where are hiding?" Nicole asks.

"I can't tell you! That defeats the entire game of Prop Hunt!" I say, "I'll give you a hint though... Don't look in the barrel-room."

"Come on!" she screams while I'm laughing in the background.

After an hour of us screaming at each other and laughing, we both logged off, and I had a very long day of editing ahead. A couple hours of editing later, I finished and posted the 20 minute video on YouTube. It finished uploading, and I went into my kitchen to fix something to eat. I hadn't had breakfast yet, but it was already to late for that, so I made lunch. A (once was) frozen pizza with everything on it and for something to drink, I grabbed a water bottle from the fridge.

I sat back down in front on my iMac, and began watching some of other gamer's videos. When I finished my pizza, I threw away my paper plate, and put the rest of the pizza in a Zip-Lock bag for dinner tonight. A couple seconds later, my phone rang. I looked at the caller ID. It was my mom.

My mom is the nicest lady you could meet. After my father passed away from cancer 2 years ago, she would always worry about me and my health, so she called 3 times a week. She's also OCD, so she made a "calling schedule" for when she makes her daily calls, but this phone call, was on 1 of the days she wasn't supposed to call.

"Hey mom," I say into the phone, "everything alright?"

"Yes Tara, everything's fine," she replies.

"Not to be rude or anything, but why did you call me then?" I say, "Today is not one of the days on the schedule."

"Oh, I know, but you're busy and all, so I had to call you to give you the news," she says.

"What news?" I ask.

"Your sister is getting married!" she screams into the phone.

"Tell me all the details!" I scream back.

My older sister, is Kate. She's not a YouTuber. She never really liked the idea of talking to herself with a camera in her face, so she became a fashion designer instead. I can only imagine what her dress is going to be like since she can actually design the dress herself. Kate is a manager of wedding dress/suit design company (so ironic, right?). Her business is world wide, so she has to travel a lot, just like I have to do with my contract with YouTube.

"Well, his name is Connor, he works with a construction company, and they met when he was building her new design studio in New York," my mom says.

"Well that makes since. They both design things, and Kate always liked a good strong man," I say.

"Exactly," she says.

"So when's the wedding?" I ask.

"It's in 3 weeks! Right here at home!" she replies.

"Wow, that's really convenient, because I have to go to VidCon next week, and it will take me a couple days to get back," I say.

"I know, they planned it like that because," my mom dramatically paused, "Kate wants you be her Maid of Honor!"

I screamed like a little girl. I've always wanted to be Kate' s Maid of Honor, and she always wanted to be mine. After a few more minutes of talking about weddings, and Mom wishing me a safe trip to VidCon, we hung up. A few more minutes of me taking in all of the exciting information, I went to my iMac, and typed a new tweet to all my followers:

Guess whose getting married!!
