A class act!!!

I am subscribed to iwanted2c1video. I love listening to her talk and describe how to apply make up. Besides the fact that she is talented.

Recently, I saw this video she made in gratitude for her favorite make up guru, Petrilude

I was so impressed by the fact that she admired him so much and made an effort to credit him and make a video thanking him for his work. You don't know how much I admire that in people. She could have easily taken his ideas, or have been inspired by his work, made them her own and credited them as her own. But no, she took the high road.

I think she will be another rising star on you tube because of this. Currently, she has over 23k subscribers and I know it's because her ideas and creativity are ORIGINAL. And when she copies or is inspired, she gives credit. I LOVE IT!!!!






UPDATE:
After commenting on the video, PETRILUDE himself, responded to my comment ZOMGOT!
This just proves, we gurus love to receive the credit. It's like a reward for all of our hard work.

You know what I think is great? Is that you admit to copying him and you give him credit. Also, that you copy him, but have your own stuff too. I am gonna blog about this video today. Thanks for the inspiration.

ilovegerardo: Not only that she gives credit (like a lot of youtubers don't do), she takes the original and adds to it making it even better.

Although, I am cutting my hair tomorrow, I am going to attempt this look:




You can see her look starting at 1:19.

So cute. I hope I have time to record it tonight!

Love,
Iris

I was pregnant in these videos

I was pregnant almost all of 2008.

This was my first pregnant video. I was about 2 months along here. I had NO idea what my body was in for in the coming months! I was still small and actually wore a bikini to the beach, when we went to Miami.



I think in most videos, though I was glowing. Around this time, I was planning on being an eyeball for Halloween, using my big round stomach as the iris of an eye. But I was too lazy to put it together. I didn't dress up after all for Halloween. Bummer.



This was my worst looking video. I was soooo tired. And I was a little anemic.
I actually got several comments from people asking me if I was ok and to take care of myself.


In this one, I was just a few days away from giving birth. It was my last pregnant video. I can tell you that I was HUGE and wasn't sleeping well. I know this was filmed early in the morning. My husband was still asleep. I got up, went for a walk with Zero, the dog, took a shower, got ready and it was still like 7 am, when I was filming.



If you are curious want to look for more of my pregnant videos, go to the Spring through Winter 2008 videos. You will see my preggo face in all of those :)

To all, you tube video producers ;) tell me a little bit about your you tube channel.
I want to subscribe to you.

What is your channel about?
How many videos do you currently have on your channel?
On average, how many minutes are your videos?
How often do you upload a NEW video?
What makes you different from other you tube channels, with the same type of topic?
How is the quality of your video? (Can I hear you well? Is the lighting good? Is it focused?)

Anything else you can do to entice me to come check out your you tube channel?

Remember to post the link to your channel. OR give me your channel name. Make sure it's spelled correctly :)

Thanks!

This is not me!

I recently got a message from a subscriber, writing me that someone was going around saying this person in the video (below) is me. I think it may be because the video is called "Iris Pin Up." She said that people were leaving comments on this channel, as if they were writing to me. I am writing this blog this to let you know, it is not me.

I would not pose with such little clothes. ANNNND this person looks nothing like me!




So, if you are one of those people who thought this was me...hope this straightens things out :)

(This blog is not intended to put down the lovely model in the video)

I have done some amateur modeling in the past. Below, is an example of a video of ME modeling (starting at :37 seconds.)


Yup!

Have a fun day everyone :)

Pole dancing?

I am constantly looking for new ways to work out and have fun.

My friend insists that pole dancing is the next best thing for losing weight. Seriously? It sounds so sleazy...


Where do I get a pole anyway?

I've been looking online and they are SUPER expensive. I'm talking $200-$300.

Then I find this one on line.

If the link doesn't take you there, search for the "hot pink dance pole kit" in this website. It's pretty cool.

The Dance Pole goes up fast and can be easily taken down. Pretty good price too, compared to the other expensive ones I've seen. Am I gonna try it? Maybe!





Check out these awesome videos on how to exercise on a pole :)
Neat!




What I do

I make hair tutorials on YouTube. But I created this blog to connect with my fellow writers/bloggers. I've also created a myspace account, but I don't like the format for blogging. I'd rather blog here. As far as something to note about me: I rarely have will power when it comes to dieting. I'd rather eat what I want, but in moderation. I like girly stuff, but I don't like doing my own hair. I rarely do my own hair, so if you saw me in the street, you'd probably not recognize me. But if you ever saw me, I would love it if you came to say hi. Thanks for reading my blogs.
