A Week of Writing

If you read my last post you'd know that my brother is performing as part of Only Boys Aloud in Britain's Got Talent. I left it a bit late, I know. It's already started. Only Boys Aloud are actually performing tonight, and I will be tweeting throughout the show. I have a couple of status updates, too.  Check @Cerith99 and Cerith Freeman.
VOTE ONLY BOYS ALOUD!! AHHH!!!

So, following from 'Inspiration', I now have two new subscriptions, thanks to Wheezy Waiter on twitter, saying his girlfriend directed him to the first in the following list. The two new subscriptions are Dan Rezler (that's his actual username) - he's an arguably nerdy vlogger from Indiana. The next is his British friend is Hannah Gisarol. She puts her face on.

I like these because I like seeing more real people vlogging about their real lives without it turning a reality show. (TOWIE is just plain annoying.) Also, Dan Rezler likes a vlogger called DStringzzZ - he's done 17 videos over 3 years - which isn't much. He has about 600 subscribers, though, which is impressive - for 17 videos.

I like inside jokes you can build over time with videos. Wheezy waiter has an eagle he punches, a whale tank, an alligator he feeds with clones and a time machine. He also has a non-thing called 'Explosion Wednesday', which is being "tested". The only people who can make it a thing is himself or Oprah. This is really good, because he is lazy. I'm not saying he's not good, but if he hasn't got an idea that day, he has jokes to fall back on if he has to. This means he can make a lot of high-quality videos. He has both quantity and quality (over 600 videos).

So, thanks, if you have, read this for the entire week since the first post. I'm going to leave you now so you have time to VOTE FOR OBA!!
I'll keep tweeting - @Cerith99 and Cerith Freeman on Facebook.

Britain's Got OBA

Okay, so if you've watched Britain's Got Talent today, you know that -

- SPOILERS-

- Only Boys Aloud got through. I find this pretty exciting, as my own brother is a member of Only Boys Aloud. He is currently still in London after the great reveal show.
I've been Tweeting, Tumbling and Facebooking it - well, twice. That doesn't mean I'm not excited - in  fact I'm not a very active Tweeter, Tumbler or Facebooker at all. I tend to reblog, share, like and scroll rather than posting my own stuff. I like having a blog on Blogger - this is my space and my URL.
I did these things twice because I had reasons - I Tweeted and updated my status first, then I reblogged my brother's post, retweeted my brother's tweet then I screamed a status declaring that there's a close-up of my brother on Britain's Got More Talent. (That's right - I only Tumbled once -  :P )

I haven't more to say, other than,

"WATCH BRITAIN'S GOT TALENT AND VOTE FOR ONLY BOYS ALOUD!!"

Yeah - I'm a loud person.

My biggest surprise, of course, was in the first episode of the Auditions in Britain's Got Talent, and after the choir sang 'Calon Lan' (can't be bothered putting a ^ on the 'a' now) - and Simon Cowell said 'I've never heard that song before, but...'
I can't believe this. Calon Lan is the most famous Welsh song after the anthem, 'Mae Hen Gwlad fy Nhadau'.

So - if you are a person and you are reading this, what are your views on talent shows, and if you are, do you like being British/Welsh, and why?
