 What's up everyone? Tiktok here. Welcome back to another video. This is an annual video that I do every year and it's to look back at the previous year and look forward at the new year which 2020 was the craziest year in my life. A lot of crazy things happened. Of course, we had the huge pandemic which at the time I'm recording this is still ongoing and I think it's going to be for the better part most of 2021 unfortunately that we are going to have to deal with this and our way of life is going to be altered for the next couple years at least in my opinion until they have this thing under control and there's a vaccine but I don't want to talk about the pandemic for the entire video even though that took up most of 2020. A lot of other things happened in 2020 and a lot of great things in my opinion for me personally happened in 2020 and I'm going to be talking about some of them as well so enough of the COVID-19 talk. I know it was you know something that's still happening and affected tons of people and I don't want to look past that but I want to brighten up this video right now and stop talking about COVID-19. So the first thing that happened for me in 2020 was meeting my beautiful girlfriend Ashley which she's already been on this channel or at least we recorded the video prior to this one coming out and she absolutely loved it. She's the one that insisted on doing the video for it a munch pack taste test and she loved it so I'm hoping to do more videos with her in the future but this year spending as much time as I did with her and her family was a blast. She is amazing and I absolutely love her. We started to officially date on January 19th so that was just right before the pandemic but we're still able to spend so much time with each other and because of the pandemic at least in our opinions it really brought us together because we were able to spend so much time together in a short amount of time so I absolutely love that and it was awesome start of 2020. Then of course everything pandemic ended up happening. I unfortunately ended up getting laid off from work. I was working security over nights at the casino which I loved but I've been laid off and have been laid off ever since. It's been a struggle. It's been very difficult emotionally not being able to work. Luckily the government has stepped in here there but I know I'm gonna have to be paying back a lot of taxes this year so I am saving up a lot of that money that they ended up giving me but with that aside this year ended up being great for the channel which I'm really thankful. Thank you all for all of your love and supports, the comments, everything that you guys do liking the videos everything really boosted my channel. This past summer I reached 1000 subscribers and at the time I'm recording this video we are so so close to 1500 subscribers. It's been crazy. We earned almost 1000 subscribers in 2020. This past summer after getting that threshold of 1000 subscribers which is the only thing I needed to get ads back on the channel I had over 9000 watch hours and you only needed 4000. I was able to actually go and be able to get ads back on the channel which I know a lot of people don't like especially for a small youtuber but by doing that it has helped me out. I'm getting anywhere between 100 to 150 dollars a month from youtube and I'm putting that back into youtube. So my taste test videos different things like that different unboxing videos my ring light that I got recently all of that was with my youtube funds and I'm really thankful to not only be able to make youtube videos but to use a little bit of this money to better my content on the channel and get more stuff to unbox and taste test and different things like that where I couldn't before. Prior to ordering another munch pack it's been two years since I did a munch pack. The reason I stopped is because I couldn't afford it anymore. It was something I tried out on the channel. I'm going to be slowly bringing things back and trying new things by using my youtube money to be able to fund that. So thank you guys for all of your support. It helped me get to the threshold to get ads on my channel and get even a little bit of money in on the channel because of you guys. Even though it's 100 to 150 dollars a month that really doesn't sound like much definitely nowhere near a full time job but that money definitely was put back into the channel and definitely has helped out the channel long term. So thank you guys and that also by me getting ads back on the channel I was able to do a video game giveaway and the person who won was over in the UK and they absolutely loved the game. That was the Deadpool game so if it wasn't for my youtube money I wasn't able to do that giveaway so I'm glad I was able to do a giveaway finally and give back to my channel and I want to do more stuff like that in the future. Now the rest of 2020 after the summer had a huge roller coaster effect on me but going through the holidays and everything for Christmas it was really really small this year but thankfully because all your love and support I was able to get through 2020. It's been an emotional year especially with not working. Thankfully I had you guys to fall on and you guys helped me out with a lot of love and support. Thank you to Leanne Riley and Do You Nerd, Tom and Lacey because those are my top supporters that are on YouTube and they really helped me along with everybody else that comments on my videos has helped me through this year which was a really tough year and a special shout out to my beautiful girlfriend Ashley for helping me throughout the whole year because we helped each other the whole time and if it wasn't for her this year would have been really hectic for me and it would have been really harder for me not only to make better content and to do the things that we've done this year but it definitely helped me out mentally and emotionally as well and now that 2020 has come to an end. Finally happy new year hopefully 2021 is a lot better and hopefully the pandemic is not as bad as it was in 2020. I believe it's still going to be ongoing for a little bit of while now but I definitely think it's not going to be as bad as 2020 at least I hope not. Hopefully in 2021 things that I want to do better for number one the channel I want to make better quality content if you guys want to see new things for me let me know what you guys want to see I want to try out new things and dive into new aspects of the channel maybe different unboxings, taste tests or just new things in general if you guys want to see new things with just me myself or with my beautiful girlfriend Ashley we definitely want to bring more content your way. This year I definitely was hoping to travel especially last year I was but I don't see me traveling much other than small road trips within our area me and my girlfriend might do that and the other thing that I want to do for 2021 is get back to work whether it be the casino opening I'm back to work there or finding a new job I definitely think that is my focus for 2021 so definitely spending a lot more time with my girlfriend Ashley and doing more adventures in our area nothing that's too far away especially because COVID-19 no big travels better youtube videos working more on the channel and definitely hopefully getting back to work so I can get some flow of money and luckily I have a lot of savings and I've always saved up so that's helped out with 2020 but I definitely need to get back to work so once again happy new years normally I'd ask how your 2020 went but I'm assuming just like it did for me 2020 was not the greatest year for anyone so I'm just not even going to ask this year hopefully 2021 is a lot better and I hope you guys have enjoyed the content that I'm providing for you guys and making because anymore I'm trying to make the content that you guys want to see but also make content that I want to create because like I said from day one on this channel if I make content and I'm not enjoying it there's no point in me making the content anymore on my youtube I have to enjoy what I'm creating to create more of it and keep this channel going so far so good and 2020 video wise has been a great year and I've come up with new ideas and the quality of my videos has definitely improved some this past year so thank you guys for all of your love and support I'm gonna leave this video here happy new years hopefully 2021 is a lot better peace
