Well folks, I can't believe that five years (and a week) ago today, I signed up to the biggest online video distribution website in the world, not to mention the breeding ground for up-and-coming talent in the media industry.

Now granted, I have nowhere near the large subscriber base of people who joined YouTube around the same time as me (sXePhil, TokyoCooney, RodgerSwan, etc), but despite that, I still make videos chronicling my life and how it has changed over these past 5 years.

Heck, I can even go back a year and look at the kind of videos I was doing then and see the differences between then and now. I believe that my videos underwent a major change after I graduated US Navy boot camp in late August 2010. I also started doing the N-FAQs series on a regular basis around this time as well.

Now before I get all gushy-eyed, let's begin our trip down memory lane and look at my Top 10 videos of the past 5 years! Due to the time limits on YouTube (15 minutes as of 03-08-2011), I split up the video into two parts. In this video, we'll be going over my Top 5 videos that are primarily on YouTube. Here we go!

05 - Vlog 04 - Going Around Town

This video marked my very first attempt at using video editing software (Sony Vegas, which I still continue to use even today, although I keep it up-to-date), whereas my other videos were filmed in one take and sometimes compiled via Total Video Converter, like in my very first guitar video. Vlog 04 is also a very early precursor to the Life In...Video series.

04 - Pie In The Face (Navy Style)

This video, while it was an editing nightmare due to YouTube's 15 minute time limit and the very large amount of footage that I took, was and still is a blast to watch!

03 - Life In...Video 02 - Celine & Coldwater Ohio's Bike Path

This video to me was the beginning of a more refined editing sense in my videos. I had done a bunch of at-the-time new things like add music & record while riding on my bicycle. Although I replicated it on videos afterward, I feel that I haven't quite recaptured the mojo of this video!

02 - Vlog 21 Part 1 & 2 - Life Plans Chipotle Finders & Goin' Downtown To Myles Dairy Queen

These two videos I believe are my most under-rated of all time! I had to split this video into two parts because of YouTube's at-the-time 10 minute time limit, but it seemed to work out just fine. I did things a lot differently in this video that I haven't done before or even since, like add those pixelated transitions ala Parker Lewis Can't Lose. I had a blast recording & editing this video, and I believe it really shows! Even Rodger Swan, one of my YouTube heroes, gave it great praise and always referred to it as one of my better videos!!

01 (TIE) - Al Di Meola LIVE at Anthology San Diego [02-19-2011] - Midnight Tango + Medley & Race With Devil On Spanish Highway (Full HD 1080p)

Although I didn't edit these videos AT ALL, they recorded a very special moment in my life and they're also my first set of videos in Full 1080p HD!! Great meal, great music, unforgettable times!

In the next video, we'll go over my Top 5 BlipTV videos. Stay tuned!
