Transforming my Channel?!
    Truth is that when I first started my channel shirleysway24, I started it because I already had a channel where I uploaded singing videos. In that channel I found myself looking for makeup, fashion and hair videos. I felt strange looking for that, because I've always been a girly girl, but I never cared that much about my appearance or fashion stuff. I remember Macbarbie07 -Bethany- being the only Beauty Guru I was subscribed to. Then I found more and more other gurus... and suddenly I wanted myself out there too, I wanted to expose myself and not only singing, but helping with this passion that was growing inside of me.
    So I uploaded my first video, I was very nervous about it. Talking to a camera for the first time is very awkward. There I simply introduced myself and what I wanted my channel to be about. I believe maybe a year or months after I uploaded my two beauty related videos. The first one was a makeup tutorial, lighting was good but the quality was not that good lol. I uploaded it as an entry to beautybyjj's giveaway. I didn't won... I was too bad xD. Second video was Hairstyles for medium-short hair, and this is where I completely felt lost and found myself thinking too much of what others might think. First comment was extremely rude. It was a 14 years old girl who I don't really know how she had the guts to criticize other people when she is pretty wrong too ( I know what I'm talking about). I told my sister crying and she said: Ignore her, your video was ok, and you are not doing anything wrong. But still, I let that girl ruin my dreams and I put my video on private - WRONG -.
    I started uploading talking videos and I felt pretty good... 'til this day I continued uploading videos that way, but with better quality ;). Still I felt incomplete, happy but incomplete and I knew what I was missing. I went thru' my older videos, that are still private, and watch the views and either of the newest videos have been as popular as that hairstyles one. It's pretty complicated and I can totally say that at this point of my life I know that not everything is roses when it comes to a dream. I met some pretty awesome and nice people thanks to this journey and I will never forget them. Still, it's time for me to make my dreams come true, and I can't be more proud of myself of how much effort I'm starting to put here and I will put each day.
