Wrap up….. So there is an empty space of time, but a lot has been happening, and of course I have no internet where I am living, so I have to go to one of the 6 or 7 internet places that are less than 5 minutes away… But yeah, From the Top….3:00 on Thursday I got up.. after sleeping for like 20 minutes, because I had procrastinated enough to the point where I had less than a day left. But I ended

So there has not really been a single instant where I can stand and Vlog, it would be either really short, or just a droning blah blah blah.... So I am just going to write  it, starting from the last day I posted... Well for 1, My host father called. It not only solidified my wanting to go, but made me excited, without making me nervous, which everything else does. But he called and asked if

On the 15th, I went to my mom's house, With my sister, mother and grandmother there... We ate, and had Cheese Cake, my most favorite kind of cake, but I also love Ice Cream Cake, Kitty Litter Cake, and a Mint Pie that my cousin makes for thanksgiving/july 4th. But the party was really fun, and I got a special birthday* present, which you should stay tuned in to see, on the video. *It was not

So for the past week/ weekend, I have had sooooo many problems, first of all, the computer that I have been using was being absolutely ridiculous -NOT in a good way- where it was being slow and picky and very very crashy. Paired up with a video editor that eats away at the bit rate and memory usage like Pacman on illicit drugs, it was a recipe for disaster....sSo I had to reset the

So in the summer, there really isn't much to do, other than work, study, and a general nothing where you lie around and wait for something to happen. SO being a former uber gamer, (meaning completely hands down the only thing I would do for an entire day) But I really haven't played many lately.... Until I realized some of them worked in Spanish (Panama's official language)

So I am just writing this to write, right now, It is the middle of the night, and only vampires and nocturnals look good at this time of night, hence the lack of face talking to you. I have been looking to Vlogging as a Chore lately. Something that I feel that I need to do tons and tons of planning over, when really it's pick up, press rec, and talk, then edit and upload. It shouldn't be

It was an exciting event, I had to take 3 different Shots, one for Typhoid, one for Hepatitis A, and another for Yellow Fever. While you might think that getting shots from the doctor is one of the more painful things in life, I would honestly rather have a sort of numb/stinging arm for a few days than have Flu like symptoms and puke all the time, which I can proudly said I haven't done ALL THIS

So I finally chose and recieved the HD camera that I am going to take to Panama. It is water proof, and can shoot in 720p (who needs 1080p) But this is going to be something that I hope is magical, I just need a video editor that can handle HD video and all that Jazz, I'm thinking: CyberLink PowerDirector 8 Deluxe seeing that it has everything I need, and More, Direct upload to YouTube and

I figured I should introduce everyone to what is happening, and what I am going to do. As well as where I live.Everything is happening so fast.

My walk through, of the last payment for my trip to Panama. I am 1 step closer to the exchange program. I apologize for the horrid quality, i was using my little camera, but for what it's worth, it wasn't that bad...  But I really had to make the entire up as I went along. Hope you danced for 5 minutes, oh course you would get the message to hum if you has no speakers... First Vlog is done.

I am so frazzled and anxious and scared and hopeful and excited about this opportunity. I keep feeling like something is going to go wrong, or the opportunity might dissipate. But there are very many things that I feel like I am excited about...New PeopleThe SpanishThe ExperienceThe CultureLearning New ThingsThe FoodThe LifestyleThe fact that they use US dollar billsThe Plane Ride (at least 24

I have this feeling that I am going to be homesick. That I’m going to be left alone in a no where. That I’ll be lost and unable to do anything about it. That instead of actually hearing spanish, it’s a fast, speedy, endless and unable to be heard or understood.

Yes it's true, I love pop, and songs by Lady Gaga and Ke$ha are my favorites. I admit it. They are the kinds of songs I can play over and over and get pumped up, or relax. They are party songs that don't really mean a lot but the music behind them, if not the voice carries the song. The only part I hate about them is they are so like-able that you listen and ...... then it's over. So to show my "

My friend, with an idea from myself, made a short video using the green screen. It really worked out and looks really good. This is what i want to work on for one of my videos before i leave.

As evidenced by every single post I have posted, I am going to need to film what is going on around me. But every video I have done –except for the first one– has been using the Canon FS11, a beautiful and albeit expensive camera that is beautiful and I love it. But it’s not mine, it is the schools, and taking it would break school code, as well as state and federal laws would be shattered. SO it

For the past month we have had a lovely assignment of doing a 10 minute Film Noir, (a black and white artistic movie using shadows and lighting to convey a point, like in Psycho) The entire process took forever but the ending movie came out brilliantly. So here it is, Becoming Criminal!

My name is Nicholas Young, I am a junior of Medomak Valley High School, Son of Lori Meservey and Don Young. As of right this instant, I live in Warren, Maine, In the United States. I am a very chatty person, I love to learn new things and I am very good with computers, just about everyone likes me. I plan on having a career within the film industry, as I believe I have a knack, as well as a

The assignment was to take a problem in the high school and form it into a 3 minute video, The result came out quite well. Many of my friends appear in the video, and I tried really hard to take myself out of the mixture. It has become an instant classic on facebook (not really, but people really like it)

As part of a free project, I created 4 different skits and assembled them together (using a lot of tape and glue) The second one, my teacher loved so much she got it into the Youth Art Month at the Portland Museum. It was the only form of art From my high school, Medomak Valley High School, and it was the only as well as the first video that ever was on exhibition for the Youth Art Month. It took

Self explanatory, a minute long, except for credits. While I don't Star in the film I do voice the monster (without any special effects) and did edit all of it. And Yes, I'm going to Panama, and yes that was real snow on the ground, and during winter we get snow storms, and it can become very very cold.

A video concerning the problems that face the planet, and the call for action concerning them and you. Find something you want to stop and make a stand! The assignment was supposed to be a persuasive PSA with facts being a perfect minute, but it's longer because of credits, (I look really bad because it was the very morning and failed to realize my hair looked like that)

Avery Faulkingham is my Nephew, Born August 18th 2008 (8/18/08 a awesome day to be born for a numerical consistency) He is only a year old in this video, which explains what he basically is... It was really a video for my sister who really wanted me to make a video, so later in life we could point and laugh at him about being 1 year old(jk). This video was mostly made for kicks, and I had a lot
