For the longest time I was sad and unhappy. Now let me clarify I was not depressed. Depression is a much more serious issue and I don’t want to muddle it with my experience. The best way I can describe it now looking back is that I didn’t fully understand myself and the events going on around me. Back then the only thing that was still am obsessed with cartoons. Books, books on the other hand I have no idea where I got hooked on them. Books kept me from being lonely and entertained when the remedial act of playing on the playground became too much. There is a common misconception about me: I’m lonely. I’m not. Now saying getting to know more people would be great, just not with anyone in my grade. At first all I wanted was friends. I was left …show more content…
I’m 15 and I got my first laptop 3 years ago. Nothing had happened until one day I was on YouTube and I clicked a video. It was of two cartoon characters. One bright yellow and other bright pink. The yellow one opened its mouth and out came a humorously deep voice with the pink one miming beside her. I laughed and thought “Wow someone did a really good job dubbing this.” and clicked away. That was the day I discovered My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and it changed my life. Because of it I discovered Channel Awesome and its team of reviewers. It was because of them I began to have a love of movies good and bad. They made me appreciate movies and the amount of work it takes. From their group I discovered Nash. Nash did a lot of things for me his Here There Be Dragons series has showed me just how far the rabbit hole goes with movies, thanks to his running of RDA(Radio Dead Air) my love music has grown.

By AH playing Five Nights at Freddy’s and Kim(from the Yogs) playing Life is Strange I discovered Markiplier and Jacksepticeye. I admire Mark because of how much he cares. He is just the most loving and kind hearted person I have known. Jack inspires me even more with just how hard he works.cares, how dedicated he is, and is thankful for his job. His story about how he got to where is now inspires me to put my foot into what makes me happy and what I want to after school. And to think my life and me would be entirely different if I didn’t have a laptop. If I didn’t love books as much as I do I wouldn’t be as thoughtful as I am how. Cartoons inspired me to write and draw to get my voice out there. Finally and most importantly if not for my laptop I would still be the same Michele that was in middle school, heck even freshman year; unsure, intimidated, weak, and simple minded. Thanks to all the people I watch my worldview has blown up
