 Hey guys, what's going on? Welcome back to another video and welcome to my final update from New Zealand Yes, it is true. I am heading back to Alice Springs tomorrow actually and I don't really have a hell of a lot to say I opened up pretty Pretty heavily in the last video. I talked about my my struggles with With certain things and if you want to know about that, please go back today's video is not going to be along those lines But it's going to allow me to just Reflect and give thanks to every single one of you guys who've been watching my latest videos. I've tried to You know fire this channel back up in recent weeks and I guess, you know the videos that you've seen have been just pretty random ideas of mine that you know, whenever an idea pops in my head I sort of think about it for a couple days and then eventually I I do it and In this case, they were video ideas and in the end I made them. So they're on the channel, you know a couple of hundred views each It's obviously not a huge Amount of views, but it's some and it's the views that I mean at the end of the day like an metric that is really easy to see and Major is the like to dislike ratio and I'm so pleased to say that For the most part a lot of most of those videos Have been a hundred percent likes zero dislikes zero percent dislikes, which makes me feel really good, you know if if nothing else a like on the videos For a guy who does get extremely anxious around reading comments, I think a like Goes a hell of a long way So We went to the athletics track this morning That was fun You'll see a couple of videos coming out soon Discussing a couple of things. I did there. I did a Bronco test and I did a beep test I Love going to that facility that the athletics track is a bright blue It was a fantastic day today really really nice and sunny and yeah fantastic experience So I got that done. I'm nearly finished packing my suitcase. In fact As soon as I finish this video, I'm gonna go and finish that go to my mom's place tonight for some dinner with my sister and her boyfriend and then Yeah, it'll be an early start tomorrow off to the airport and back to Alice Springs to to reunite with my kids and Get a full-time job get another full-time job and just carry on carry on with life You know, I didn't necessarily need to come back to New Zealand But I had a ticket that was paid for and I thought you know what fuck it. I'll do it So I've come back this trip was was not like the others though because I had it I had an end date, you know, I knew I was going back to Alice Springs. So I've just tried to You know just Just reconnect with the place enough so that I can go back to Alice and and not feel homesick or not You know not feel like I've missed out on anything, you know what I mean? And so it's been it's been great It's been four weeks of of making a hell of a lot of content editing a lot of content Catching up with family and friends and And just you know At the same time enjoying time alone Because it's pretty hectic my life in Alice Springs is pretty hectic and that's what you get when you're a father of two and You know, I kind of like it. I kind of like it I've spent a lot of time on my own during this trip. Yes, I've seen other people But I have spent a lot of time alone and I've spent enough time alone. It's more than enough I'm ready to go back and face the music So tomorrow heading back to Alice Springs I did want to just make mention of anyone that the people who've come on board as channel members over the last couple of weeks Once I started Publishing the top 100 videos for for members only I want to say a huge. Thanks. Welcome back guys Or if you're new here welcome consider Maintaining that membership consider it because If ever I host a live stream It's always it's always really nice really cool when I see members come through, you know anyone with that green Name means you're a member means you're an integral part of this channel and and Look at the end of the day none of these top 100 videos that are about to be published I'm making any money from so to think that I have actually made just a little bit of money a Couple of dollars per per member at least for the month that is it's at least it's something and you know I don't need that. I don't need that money. This project is a passion project through and through I did it for my audience. I did it because I I love creating and I'm passionate about it and I'm not going anywhere You know my suck this YouTube channel fuck. I've considered Not deleting it but putting every single video on private so I can just have a break And I'm not tempted to go and go and look at you know analytics or anything like that because I won't be getting any views I've been tempted to do that, but I'm not going to I'm not going to I'm just going to do my thing I'm not going to put any pressure on myself like basically the pressure I put on myself to create content was always going to be around being back here in New Zealand whilst I've got the time to Do it as soon as I arrived back in Alice brings that completely changes I am not putting any pressure on myself to make any videos. I've I've made enough You know and that's going to carry this channel through for the next couple months, and I'm I'm I'm happy with that So I can't wait to just I Can't wait to see my kids man. I fuck Yeah, it's just it's I've probably been here maybe a week too long to be honest. I probably could have easily gone back to Alice a week ago But it is what it is. I've made the most of it And I'm ready to really to head back. So um, I mean, it's not a hell of a lot to update What I'm what I'm what I'm what I'm focusing on doing is getting back in shape Getting fit and playing a season of rugby union back in Alice Springs. I I I'm really looking forward to that I feel like if I let another season of rugby go by without playing it is just an absolute waste and it's something I'll always regret, you know being in Alice they play rugby through the summer. We're coming into summer I can I probably have about six weeks to get ready until the season starts and I've got the ability to have my kids come down and watch You know what I mean and these last couple of seasons that I play I might I might have another three or four seasons in me Maybe and if I can have my kids come down and and be involved and watch You know, that's that's gonna that's gonna mean so much to me moving forward as I get older and as certain physical activities just seem Become impossible to do I'll play rugby for as long as I can But I do I'd be lying if I said I didn't kick myself for not playing as much as I could have over the last few years You know, I call myself a rugby player, but have I been playing rugby? No No, as soon as I started calling myself a rugby player on YouTube. I pretty much quit rugby and that's pretty fucked up So look that's enough from me. I'm gonna get this video edited up on the channel and I wish you all farewell I wish you a fantastic day night or evening wherever you were tuning in from Lots of health happiness and much love
