SantaCon and Tom Milsom's NYC Launch Party

In which Emily recounts her time spent this past Saturday (12/12/09) in New York City with her mother, stumbling upon SantaCon and meeting Charlie McDonnell, Edd Plant, Tom Milsom, Alex Day, Michael Markman, and some other YouTubers / Nerdfighters.

soon there will be more than two full songs here.

So the guys were all like "oh, oh, just buy our CDs* online," and I said to Alex that he wouldn't be able to sign it then. We both decided that it would be appropriate for Alan Lastufka to sign it. That is probably what I'll do.

But I can always bring them to VidCon. They're going, right?

You're going, right?






*except Edd Plant who has run plum out of discs and isn't planning on selling anymore physical copies. Edd Plant, how will you sign my mp3s?

OMG! The sub knows who sxephil is!!!

In which Emily (who is 24) shares about students' misperceptions about her, how Philip DeFranco got brought into this, and probably says "PUH lease!" one too many times.

The bit at the end I almost made into a second video, but it didn't quite seem worth it.

They are always surprised when I've seen some viral video. Seriously guys?

If only they knew how much time I spend on YouTube.

Speaking, a recently received a friend request on Facebook from my favorite student...who is in 9th grade in one of the districts I subbed in. Immediately, I called my mom. "Is there any reason I shouldn't accept him?"

"I don't think so. You don't do anything inappropriate on Facebook."

Then he left me a comment about my video You Spell Your Name Wrong, saying that he knows every single kid I mentioned (which is probably a hyperbole...there were names from several different school districts).

This is probably going to cost me my job.


UPDATE: Even if I had more than 100 subscribers, I'd still be allowed to fangirl about this.
