I don't know if you guys are familiarized with the YouTube "stars" like Shane Dawson, Chuck, Kassem G, people from the Station or my personal favourites, the Shaytards. If not let me handle you a brief explanation on what the are about.
These people capture on camera their lifes, their thoughts, their joys and whatsoever, and post it online. It feels like a REAL reality show, if we can call it that way.
"The Station" is a group formed by most of these people, where they produce their own videos, short clips, funny stories. Just for entertainment. It is basicly their job. They got so popular that they are actually being paid somehow, don't ask me how much and by who because I honestly don't know. It is like... they have their own entertainment show, just not on TV but on the Internet itself!
So... The ShayTards are my favourite. Shay uploads a video everyday about his life and family and he's been doing that for a whole year and he keeps doing it. He has the most amazing family ever and he is funny as hell, and he also brings out important matters, which makes the comments section a good poll to discuss diferent themes.
A few weeks ago, he uploaded a video, like he usually does, but in that one Shay, along with his family, was driving in a high-way, when there was this HUUUUGGGEEE Budweiser advertising sign. Shay just started wondering and fooling around "What if we had sponsors for the Shaytards? like... Today's episode of ShayTards is sponsored by Budweiser!"
This can be seen at 3:44, when he starts talking about it.
So what happened after he uploaded this particular video? His e-mail got full of companies wanting to sponsor his videos! How crazy yet smart can that be?
Myself, as a Marketing and Advertising student, knew that this day would come. Sponsors in our own home videos!
This kinda shocked me in a way... but yeah, it's a good marketing strategy. Even though I don't actually agree about it that much.
So yeah, Shay and his wife ended up by accepting sponsors only IF the money they would get for it would go to their kids college fund. So it's nice. I guess... I don't know! lol
This is anoying... I know... bleh. And I'm sorry for the long e-mail but I had to write it down since it was something I kept in mind a while ago. What will be the next step in advertising and promoting something?
Advertising is everywhere, and sometimes I just hate it, and I am getting my degree about it. Ironic...
Anyways... I love the Shay Tards. If you have nothing to do, start watching their videos. It's catchy and funny and the kids are amazing. Seriously... watch it.
MommyTard is pregnant, btw.
They don't call themselfs by their own names, especially the kids.
Shay Carl is the responsible. Then there's his wife, Katilette, known as MommyTard.
Then the kids: (from older to younger)
Gavin - SonTard
Avia - PrincessTard
Emi - BabyTard

This one resumes the whole year he did the "Vlogs", and it is also my favourite all time. Take a look.
On the Semptember 14th these genious bastards are playing in Lisbon. Guess who's going... duh. My best friend and I are absolutely there already! Anyone is free to join ^^
Tune of the moment
(Yes, I know it's not their best but this theme helps keep me inspired every day.)
Other important matter... The damn 8th episode, 4th season of The Tudors is out already! WHY DID IT TOOK 2 WEEKS?! -.- anyways, I'm going to watch it now. Bye.
(Joely Richardson looks lovely as Katherine Parr)
Still feeling sick. Sneezy girl... :/ damn it. Kisses are helping though!
I look a lot younger... it was taken today.
Hershey's KISSES
There's not much I can update right now. The summer is here already and I am boiling! Seriously... oh talking about "seriously", last night I finished Grey's Anatomy 6 season. It was harsh! A good, sad, emotive ending. New season comes up in September.
What happened to the 8h episode, from the 4th season of The Tudors?!? OMG I can't find it anywhere, or maybe it hasn't been out yet, wich makes no sense! -.-
Anyways... that's it. I'm getting too boring these days. I'm sorry.
Here I am, a rabbit hearted girl Frozen in the headlights It seems I've made the final sacrifice
Just a simple thought. It's late and I can't sleep. Too much stuff running in my brain right now. Self portraiture might be boring for some, for me it helps. Help what? I have no idea... wtf am I saying... wtf am I doing?

EU FUI!
Not the best alignment ever... but I was only there for MUSE, so whatever. Snow Patrol surprised me, actually...
Sum 41 didn't play, since the drummer had an accident, so they canceled the rest of the tour. The portuguese band Fonzie played in their place. Didn't watch them. I was too busy collecting the gifts from the festival xD
crappy webcam picture. fuck it. YAAAYY for the 27th at Rock in Rio!
And of course I had to take my best friend Syl with me. Cooooool Pepsi sort of.. sunglasses??
Pretty picture at the Snow Patrol gig.
The best of all... the MUSE opening... ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!
15th May 2010 - My Graduation!!! One of the most emotional moments of my life, with no doubt. An exciting moment when we found ourselfs reuniting our family with friends, celebrating this special ocasion. It was amazing... I want to do it again!
I dedicate it to my loving grandmothers that passed away this year... During the entire religious ceremony I kept them in my mind. They were there for me... I love you.
The friends, IADE and ceremony... and celebration... and FUN!
The Family and friends that came along =)
