1. Winter Video Round Up!

    January 12, 2015 ♥ Posted in: Books, Journal, YouTube videos by Kristina Horner

    Hello, lovely blog readers!

    Yet again I have sort of fallen off the face of the planet, but I’m here to make amends by doing another little roundup of my favorite videos I’ve posted in the past month or so. If you missed any of them… go ahead and catch up! I’ll wait here.

    So, first of all.. this video I’m about to show you is probably my favorite video I’ve ever made. Half the views it has are probably from ME, rewatching it and laughing hysterically alone in my room. I have no shame about this. It’s that funny.

    Joe and I did a slightly different take on the whisper challenge. Rather than asking each other inane questions sent in on twitter, we just said nerdy phrases at each other. It was amazing.

    The next video I want to share is my wrap-up from the #xmasbooktubeathon. I love booktubeathon. In fact, I am really coming around to just loving ALL readathons, and I can’t wait to do so many more in 2015. But this was the weekend long readathon I did right before Christmas, complete with a lot of struggles:

    This year I am, of course, doing the 50 book challenge, so there will be MANY more readathons to come. And, I can imagine, more book struggles.

    As we get closer to the end of the year, I started getting reflective. About books, of course. I realized too late that the trendy thing to do was your top FOURTEEN books of 2014, so I look a n00b only listing five. Whatever!

    Then I had to show off all my NEW books, of course. This is a very book heavy blog post, I’m finding. No regrets! Here is my most extreme book haul yet:

    I posted many more videos over the last month or so, so scoot on over to my channel to catch ’em all! Like a Pokémon master. Or you can stay here and leave me a comment telling me what kinds of videos you’d like to see more of in 2015. Whatever you want.

    Thanks, as always, for reading my blog! It makes me smile. I like you guys.

  2. YouTube Video: Imaginary Friends

    May 20, 2014 ♥ Posted in: YouTube videos by Kristina Horner

    I’ve been sort of bad about only writing blog posts regarding my new videos lately, but I’ve been transitioning to a new upload schedule on my channel (two videos a week now, on Tuesday and Saturday!) so it’s taken a lot of energy to rearrange my work schedule. Once I get that more to a rhythm, I’ll definitely return to writing a bit more diverse things on this blog – I have a lot of ideas just waiting to become a reality but there’s only so many hours in the day.

    I wish there were more hours.

    Anyway! My newest video went up today and it’s a fun one. I’ve been doing a lot of haul videos and recommendations and adventures and whatnot which have been a lot of fun, but it was also nice to revisit a more vloggy format today. I give you… Imaginary Friends:

     

     

    In this video I talk about the idea of imaginary friends, one I invented as a child, and ask viewers to share their own! I’m quite happy with this video and I hope you like it!

  3. YouTube Video: Ladies Survey

    October 22, 2013 ♥ Posted in: YouTube videos by Kristina Horner

    My friend Rosianna is one the loveliest people I know, and she’s tagged me yet again in her annual LADIES SURVEY! It’s a chance for all of us, each year, to check in with yourself and your viewers on what you’re personally doing and thinking about women’s issues both on and off the internet. It always inspires such interesting, insightful discussion and I was happy to take part for the second year in a row:

     

    Just a quick little blog update about this today, but I promise I’ll be back with something exciting again tomorrow!
