When I was 5 I begged my parents to let me grow my hair out.
Mom: you can grow your hair out as long as you keep straight A's
I would go on to keep straight A's through highschool. Though I suffered, I grew my hair out until 7th grade when I donated it twice to Locks of Love. 16 total inches.
I once spent a whole summer after 5th grade binge watching Dragon Ball through Dragon Ball GT... 3 times. I would go on to make my username on Xbox 360 "DBZMaster136" because, well, I was the DBZ master and I was on episode 136.
The first online game I played was RuneScape in 2006.
I played Pokemon TCG (trading card game) from 4 years old to 13 years old. I won 3 tournaments and participated in City Champs 2004-2005, Regional Champs 2005-2006, City Champs 2007-2008 and State Champs 2007-2008.
I also participated in 6 pack pre-release events.
I started making YouTube videos in 2008 and have wanted to be a professional content creator ever since. To this day, at the age of 23, my main passion and pursuit is to be an amazing content creator.
I learned how to build computers in the summer between 8th and 9th grade so I could get a high powered computer on a budget that would allow me to record and edit my Minecraft gameplay for YouTube.
I went to film school for 1 year before dropping out to continue pursuing "new media" as a career path.
I wrote/read a few fanfics and original novels on Wattpad.
I was diagnosed with depression in 9th grade after a lot of mental turmoil from the buildup of my grandfather passing away, losing my first serious relationship, and struggling to keep my grades as high as they were while trying to become a YouTuber. Later, I would be diagnosed with GAD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and had my medication raised to a point that it made me ill. I quit cold turkey because it had never helped and at this point was only making things worse. Fast-forward 8 years and I found out I've had undiagnosed ADHD my whole life, which is a large reason why keeping those straight A's ended up making me crack in Junior and Senior year of Highschool.
I'm now a far happier and much more enthusiastic person, though I struggle with motivation very often, with a love for Minecraft, Anime, Tech, Zelda, and Traveling.
Also, Summer is my favorite season.
