I feel alone on the internet.
I want to make new friends on the internet.
I want to find people who are accepting of 'who I am on the internet', and maybe eventually have them accept 'who I am in real life.'

[I hope that when u read HIPSTER RUNOFF, it is in the same earnest tone as the Vlog Candy vlogcrew.]
Lately, I've been thinking a lot about personal branding and the internet. What can I do to network and extend my brand? I want to be more than just a blogger/youtube/myspacer/facebook page/blog commenter.

I am thinking about joining a collective group of young people, artists, and friends who have come together to communicate, to try and have some fun, to get creative and challenge eachother, to get into the world and to try new things. I think we'll really change the world. Even if it is on a small scale, if we make a few people laugh/think, it will all be worth it.

Fortunately, my parents recently purchased a video camera which they do not use, a community iMac for our living room, and a pair of scissors for me 2 style my own bangs. This will be an important project, and I will grow closer to my friends/internet acquaintances.

We will learn more about ourselves and art and the world and reality. We will communicate [via vlog].
I want to be part of something different.
I want to be part of something fun.
I want to be part of something sweet.
I want to nourish myself on Vlog Candy.

Did yall hear that they are replacing 'The Real World: Brooklyn' with the cast of the youtube series Vlog Candy? Is vlogging 'the master art'? Should I get some swoopy alt bangs?

Should I find a therapist who specializes in 'Barely Legal Teens who had a misguided vision of what life/meaning/authenticity/art was all about during their tweenhood, and are having a hard time adjusting to the modern world'? I'm having a hard time growing up, yall. Not sure if I will make it through the whole semester at my alt design school if I still think things can be meaningful, but every1 else is 'being all absurd and escapist [via substance abuse+self-destruction].'

Help.
