Update & GenBeauty!

Hi virtual friends! I wanted to take a moment and explain what has been going on and why you haven't seen any new videos up in the last few weeks. Well, its a frustrating tale to tell! I currently have several videos shot and awaiting editing. For all my videos, I have been using an older version of Windows Live Movie Maker to edit. This version was too simple and I wanted to try and get some snazzy editing stuff. So I updated Movie Maker and while I prefer its new options, it won't let me import my footage because it can't read the format. So, I tried several converters, only to have my footage turn all wonky. Then I tried new editing software and then my computer overheated and shut off without saving my work (which happened to be an hour long video cut down to under 20 mins!). So that brings me to today. Honey 0, technology 3. 

I am working on upgrading my camera to an HD cam, but I just lost my "real" job and have been on the hunt for the past month and a half without luck. If I can save up enough money, I will invest in a new camera and top-notch editing software! Maybe if I get more viewers, that might be possible! :)

In good news, I will be attending the Generation Beauty event this Saturday and Sunday and I am SO excited to meet my favorite YouTubers (see www.genbeauty.com)! I don't have anyone to go with, so I sure hope I can meet some friends along the way! This week, I was also lucky enough to catch up with my friend, Sam, and her lovely family and show her around my neck of the woods. I hadn't seen Phoenix since he was only a few months old! (Sam posts a daily vlog on YouTube, and she's such a joy to watch! You can find the link to the day we got to visit here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tmf_ojSDJWU).

xoxo,
Honey

P.S. I also finished my first year at my new school with a 4.0! :)
