Lauren is back!

[sepiasunrise]

I've been trying to figure out which video was the first one I watched and I think it was this one, which means I started watching half way :-)

[bandgirlcg]

The awesomeness of the camera gave you hiccups!!!

[rubberduckies911]

lol its not azcatraz .. its alcatraz ha ha :D i love your guys vids.. im a new viewer

[devilishlypure]

Azkatraz was a Harry Potter conference that happened in San Francisco last month. It is a play on the words Alcatraz and Azkaban, the wizarding jail.

[ditmoms1025]

lol people with hiccups make me giggle

[BuTtMuNcHiSgRaNd]

I think my mother has that camera, it's a really nice one. I'm happy for you:)

I also like your hair and earrings. It's pretty where you and Hayley were walking!

[ROCKonTWITCH]

I automaticaly smiled while you took that photo. I don't know why...

[eibbore]

I love the Myrtles new song Lauren, it's great. Can't wait for the EP <3

[MWftNL]

is it the lens that comes with it?

[devilishlypure]

Yes!

[58musicfan]

...

[LostNPinkRibbons]

thats how it is in tx with licenses

[nikkibatoy]

WE HAVE THE SAME CAMERA! AHHHHH....

[jimithingjames]

It's pretty cool, how you can record video w/ your still-picture camera nowadays. It burns your memory card up pretty quick though.

Cameras. What a great invention. Love the street-walk-n-talk video. It reminded me of some former friends of mine. Too bad, those days are past for me. Enjoy the rest of your Summer.

DFTBA

[HeyJeremyC]

Who has the Groob?

[OneCrazyRedheadGirl]

YAY your new CAMERA!!!!! Your hickups are SO CUTE!!! :)

[sazmuffinnn]

i dont know how you are with cameras, but seeing as i've used nikon all my life i dont like cannon cameras. :p really only because each series has its own lenses and i would have to buy an entirely new apparatus just for a different lens, but with nikon, i dont. idk lol yours shoots video and mine doesnt, so i am a liiiittle jealous :p happy shooting!

[alabastercarnations]

I used like love this channel, and I still watch Hayley and Kayley's videos. But more often than not Lauren's videos are all about tour. Lauren I watch too because she's still pretty good. My favorite was Kristina but I'm really tired and bored of Alex. It's not fiveawesomegirls-and one tagalong guy. Liane had suddenly dissapeared. No offence , Ijust want the same channel I loved.

[devilishlypure]

That's fine. I talk about things I'm doing that are important to me, like tour. I also want the people who love what we do to know when I'm near them on tour because I want to thank them in person.

One thing I love about this channel that has never changed is that we post about our lives and use the videos to see how we're all doing. If you don't like the new things we're up to or the people we spend most of our time with who end up in our videos, there isn't much I can do for you.

[MistySeasMysteries]

yous look really awkward and sound fake :S

[devilishlypure]

You sound like you don't know how to spell or use punctuation!

[DuckyLupin]

The Hunger Games is so good! I can't wait until the sequel is out!

[hayleyghoover]

<33333

[veryveryvee]

love the camera! :)

it is indeed pretty.

[ohowsherocks]

I thought this said "I love Caramel" & I thought "Me too!" Fail

[WillzWatching]

I have been drooling over the Nikon D90 and the Canon T1i.

And let me tell you something.

The T1i is EXPENSIVE in Canada--and cheap as a fiddle in the US.

Bitter party of one.

[seurat2]

Footage of any 5AG'S saying goodbye is so sad. One of these days I'd like to see some footage of when you see each other for the first time in a while, that would be epic. Meanwhile, yes, hiccups were adorkable, camera is brilliant and you are awesomeness personified.

[PotterMouth86]

Lauren, I was watching Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog last night and when watching the featurettes about the fandom there was a screen shot of you and Nina singing!! It was so cool and I wasn't sure if you knew or not. : )

[MegTao]

I saw that too and I freaked out. I was like, "I know them!" and my friends were like, "Really?" And then I had to explain that I didn't ACTUALLY know them, that I just kind of watch them on the Internet...a lot.

[PotterMouth86]

I was with my friend and just got excited quietly and in my head. I wonder if Lauren knows? I mean, it's pretty much way cooler than a lot of things and they couldn't have just used her face without saying so...haha.

[devilishlypure]

Yep, I own the DVD! Thanks for the tip anyway! :D

[miniaturerabbit]

OH MY GOODNESS! YOUR CAMERA IS SO PRETTY!! I want it! lol yeah... and why is your face tan/orange and your skin pale?

[saypo16]

yay!!! ur back!

[nickissocoolliketoo]

The hiccup at 00:20 made me giggle.

[x3brokenwinterx3]

yeahhhhhh same

[EccentricPuzzle]

I love your hair in this video, it's been looking so cute lately! (I likewise have curly hair, it takes a lot to get it to look nice though -_-)

And dude. That camera looks amazing.

Haha, the noise you made at 3:25 made me laugh.

[lunatunarox]

is it strange that i smiled when you took the picture?

[xxxSinead96]

lmao I did it too.

[xEmiiLoo]

i did toooo:D

[laxrox1093]

i don't think people tell you you're amazing enough. :)

[KayyLove17]

Saw you June 13th at the Oak Grove Library!

Thanks for signing my ipod~

[CrayolaaWonderr]

aww. your hiccup was adorable!

[DoogieRace]

Lol, your hiccup was really cute ^^

And the new song is just amazing! Looking forward to August...

[offshoot7bam]

you're adorable. :]

[00raven83]

Hi, Lauren... you are so cute : ) Cool camera..I got mine a month a ago. I love it. I haven't shoot any video yet....but photos are amazing. I can't wait to go and shoot some videos. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

[pickles4muggles]

LMFAOO your hiccup part in the beginning had me rolling on the floor. fdjfkdla; I can't wait for your Wall show and omg azkatraz. I don't think it could beat leakycon. Have fun thoughh :D

[omgily20]

[devilishlypure]

[Metallica873]

[tiger28snake]

[iwontduckandrun23]

<3

[CrazyClaire88]

Did you book your tickets?? lol

[CrazyClaire88]

I want your camera soooooooo bad!!

[snakeslovechess]

Imma steal your camera Lauren! lol

[ItsBenCracknell]

OMG !

i just brought the hunger games too!

£4, amazon !

Lauren, your hic-cups are so adorable

[JXintheZ]

Awesome!

Nice camera!

[fenster666]

I think to take videos you need to be in live view, well that's how you do it on my nikon.

[devilishlypure]

I know how to turn the video setting on, I am just not good enough yet at either autofocusing while recording, or figuring out how to make it so I don't have to hit a button to focus, if that's even an option.

[fenster666]

I don't use auto focus while recording, mainly because i'm not sure how, but manual focusing is pretty easy. But keep at it you'll get it eventually.

P.S. do you have any photo that we can see.

[devilishlypure]

Yeah, my flickr name is laurensmiles.

[fenster666]

You should have gotten the nikon D90, it's way better.

[devilishlypure]

It's kinda too late. However, the T1i has a higher sensitivity ISO, better HD video recording, more megapixels, and costs less than the D90, so I'm happy with my choice.

[dgs72]

Yay for being back from tour. Did you get your Azkatraz plane tickets yet? Remember you can fly into San Francisco, Oakland or even San Jose to see which one is cheaper. btw, I saved a buch of money by arriving on the 15th.

[devilishlypure]

Yeah, I got them! I was just hoping to get a nonstop flight but that didn't happen because it's so close to the date. Oh well.

[rachelfrench1992]

Man, I want that camera! I've just got a Sony digital camera and it's nearly done lol i've had it two years so i need to buy a new one lol. you guys are so brave walking down the street n filming. i do that but i hate the lok on people's faces. they stare at you as if you're ooutta this world haha

[RandomNicholas]

Lauren, you are the definition of cute! The hiccup was even cute!

[ratherconfused]

Holy moly you're cute.

I don't know how it's even possible for a human to be this cute. Are you sure you're not a puppy? Or a lolkitten or something?

[Borischka]

Yay Lauren! Welcome back and Yay Haley!

[SnakesAndWorms]

I think I saw some pixie dust come out of your hiccup.

You should get that checked out.

[iwontduckandrun23]

hey Lauren I have a question

if you subscrib to the ep of the month thing halfway through the year

do you only get the ones after you sign up or do you get the ones you missed too?

[devilishlypure]

You get all of the ones you missed as well!

[onlyontheradio]

ahhhhh i'm so jealous!!!!!!

[booksmovielover]

Hunger Games is amazing! The sequel is coming out in ...September, I believe.

Glad you had so much fun on tour!

[caitieb09]

Canon...?

[weneedharrypotter]

OMFG!!! I JUST GOT THAT CAMERA TOO!! Yay!!! I hope you love yours as much as I love mine!!!

[breeisnotthecoolest]

You guys are ridiculously cute.

[whyyohyou]

hahaha did someone off camera say "HayleyGHoover has to come with us so we can play beer pong!"

[devilishlypure]

She said "beer ball", a game we play with our friends in Ohio that involves shaking up beer cans and hitting them with baseball bats. I've talked about it in a video before!

[whyyohyou]

oh yeah I remember now! that video in some park or something. haha gotcha

[Mallorcaman101]

your hiccups are so cute.

[CodedLockFilms]

Lucky! I've been wanting a new camera for a really long time. But I did just get a new bike and a new MacBook Pro, so I guess I've gotten enough new toys for a while.

Yay music!

Hiccup Lauren is adorable.

[friesyo]

im extremely jealous of ur cannon camera.

[SpasticChild08]

They do that verticle/horizontal license thing in AL too.

[devilishlypure]

Yeah? I was pretty sure it wasn't just NJ, but when I posted about my horizontal license on twitter, I got all these confused @replies like, "Horizontal Drivers Licence - that's a euphemism - right?". So I figured I'd explain. :D

[WHSSoccer92]

I just got back from my first wizard rock show!! I met Matt, Alex, Adam, Melissa, and everyone and we jumped and danced to Harry Potter songs and it was the best thing ever.

Just thought I'd share my excitement!

[wrockforever]

You'll really like The Hunger Games. It's a great book. Also, your show in Oklahoma was great. We can't wait for you to come back. =)

[ISnoggedHarry]

It's the same in PA! I want my horizontal license!

Also, I miss you very much. Come play.

[devilishlypure]

I miss you toooo.

[thesocialnerd]

yay! you're from Jersey too!!!

[simehooproductions]

yay! it's always good to see a Lauren video. :)

i just listened to your new song and it was absolutely awesome! the a capella idea was so creative. congratulations on another fantastic album!

[AthenaCarlow]

Your adorable Lauren!

[CatchFlipsidE]

LOVE the shutter sound on that camera. If I'm not mistaken, that's the top of the line camera in Canon's Rebel line. Great choice!  I'm a huge Canon fanboy.

[devilishlypure]

Yep, you're right! ! I love it tooo. I'm so excited to learn how to use all of the different shooting modes.

[CatchFlipsidE]

If you spend a lot of time studying still photography, you'll probably end up just using Av (Aperture Priority), Tv (Shutter Priority), and M (Full Manual).

Definitely look forward to seeing some photos you take!

[jennabeanski]

That first hiccup was so perfectly timed and cute :) You are pretty!

[lizzzzzil]

haha wow you guys are walking in the downtown area of my hometown. sweet!

[09415williams]

It's so nice to see you happy Lauren!

[faceinbook]

I had hiccoughs today too!

[abunchaanimesfan]

the hunger games is THE BEST BOOK EVER!

[HP7letitbe]

i dont know if you are aware of this but you don't need to focus the camera it focuses itself.

[devilishlypure]

Yep, I'm aware! It autofocused in the video. When I turned the lens, I was zooming in.

[flaziola]

Wait did either of you know the guy who called you both pretty?

[countryyygrl]

I'm pretty sure it was Justin Finch-Fletchley.

[countryyygrl]

uhh... the band

[devilishlypure]

Yeah, he's our friend Justin. I toured with him.

[CasualtiesofArt]

I vants zat camera ^^ but us normal people cannot afford zat camera. *angst*

Bathroom Acoustics is a EPIC WIN!

[PiNKxP0TAT0E]

LUCKY. i want that camera sooo bad. use it well. :)

[GinAnMaCa]

My friend just got a rebel too! I'm jealous of both of you!

[tw33tzfuckuh]

I missed youu!

[duckling97]

GAHH!

The Canon Rebel is like, the most popular expesive camera on the market these days.

I recognized it right away.

And...I hate you for having it.

I was looking at the cameras at Meijers yesterday, and what do you know,THERE it is.

I take a picture of the camera behind it. AMAZING. I take a picture of my brother. AMAZING. I angst all the way home at my lack of money.

In other news, I LOVE the new song. I've always sort of had a thing for a capella, and this completely made my life.

<33

[kaitlynwithakay]

I love your new song so much. I can't wait for the EP! And I love you.

[MWftNL]

which model is your camera?

[devilishlypure]

Canon Rebel T1i.

[MWftNL]

thanks!

[jackandjuice]

What the hell? That camera's like 800 dollars! I wish I had a big professional camera like you... damn my Sony Cybershot.

[CaityBeloved]

haha. I love how Kathleen is in the background for like .2 seconds.

Anywho, gonna go listen to the new song! :)

[mimelou101]

Aaaaw you really should use the manual setting on your camera ! :)

[devilishlypure]

I really want to! I just don't know how to yet. I'm going to figure it out though! :D

[Brianswers]

I was just looking at an ad for that camera! Looks nice. How much was it?

[devilishlypure]

Normally $899 with the lens kit, but I found it on sale for $829.

[CRUNKRacoon14]

I really really hope my life is at least a teeny bit like yours when I get to college.

[YayitsRuthayy]

I totally posed when you took the picture =]

[therandomstrangers]

i rewinded that part 4 times and posed. X)

[NerdfighterAlli]

Even your hiccups are adorable!

[limehighliter]

Holy crow Lauren! The new Myrtles song is slendid. I love the Farrah Fawcett line. You rock!

[oliolioxumfree]

You have cute hiccups. (:

[AlatarielSunrise]

That's how it is in Kansas too, I was glad when I could get my horizontal license as well! :)

[rebeccawesome]

Lala Lauren, what are your thoughts on Mexican food?

[devilishlypure]

I like fajitas. That's about it though.

Mexican food is delicious but it usually leaves me not feeling so well.

[kira902k]

Awesome!

How long does it take you to make a video, filming, editing, uploading and all?

[devilishlypure]

Depends on the video.

[kira902k]

Any regular vlog, like this one.

[devilishlypure]

This one took around two hours from start to finish, but on a day that I'm not particularly articulate and have to do extra editing to compensate, a regular vlog could take like 6 hours.

[kira902k]

Oh okay, so it's not just me. Whenever I attempt to make a vlog, I just give up because it takes so damn long.

[rosworms]

Rebel's are great cameras. I got one.

[Talky202]

eat sugar. apparently it help get rid of hiccups.

[CaptainPajamaShark]

Ahh! I own Haley's dress! Now I feel cool.

[CAlex6977]

Lauren is back and she looks extra pretty. On a different note. Dont buy cameras cause they are pretty. Buy them cause they work good.

[devilishlypure]

Because they work well, you mean?

[CAlex6977]

I never claimed to be a linguist. But yeah. well

[devilishlypure]

It's pretty sad that some people think they have to be a linguist in order to use grammar correctly.

[CAlex6977]

im glad we can agree. Enjoy your pretty camera.

[devilishlypure]

It clearly works well... why would I spend that much money on a camera just because I like how it looks?

[tripthe1]

Wish I had that much money to spend on a camera.

You get FIVE stars for you guitar case.

Stay sweet.

[Alexhasgoneinsane]

I have found that Cannon Cameras works awesome and the pretty is a plus.

[LillieTellsDaTruth]

What contest did Kayle win?

[devilishlypure]

Watch the latest video on her personal channel.

[LillieTellsDaTruth]

Thanks!

[Jaaakeismine]

watch her latest videos.

[missusmoonwinkle]

OMG i have that camera in grey

[KPJ44]

That license rule is the same in Florida as well. Congrats on finishing the EP and the horizontal license! :D

[RaddishxEarrings]

I want to go to Azkatraz sooooo badly, but I can't because I'll be at camp. =(

[kairilove]

0:22 is quite possibly the cutest thing I've ever seen.

Super excited for new Myrtles music, Lauren!!

[lander1228]

GASP I LOOK FABULOUS!!!!!!!

[aire299]

Canon's = FAIL

Nikon's FTW

[flipflap112s2]

[devilishlypure]

You people make me laugh.

It's a brand name. They're both great.

[aire299]

Sorry bout the apostrophes, I can't read =)

[russianmushrooom]

[gallabonga]

aaaw, the start made me smile and laugh :D Lauren, you are so cute!

[RainBowSkittles101]

All of the licenses in wisconsin are vertical. thats why so many of us get away with underage drinking.

[lunylvgd]

Are you and NIna planning on having any NJ shows this summer?? Or after?? Anywhere in south Jersey?? I don't like post-wrock show depression! ON the up side, I just bought Painfully Obvious and Black Santas! I <3 them!!

-Sarah

[devilishlypure]

I booked a bunch of solo shows in NJ. The only remaining one is in Wall, NJ on July 10th and details are on the MySpace linked in the sidebar.
