Anyhow, one main youtube queen that I've been recently inspired by is the very famous Michelle Phan. She's Vietnamese-American, a real beauty with a beautiful smile, who's now one of the most popular Youtube-er who's known all over the world, for make up tutorials.
At first, she had a personal blog which she discussed different makeup tutorials and received requests for further instructions. Then, people that viewed her blog noticed her beautiful makeup that she'd put on so they even requested her to do her own tutorials and how to do her personal makeup. Her ever famous makeup tutorial on "Lady Gaga's Pokerface & Bad Romance Look" became so popular it went viral and made her a youtube sensation, earning a million over subscribers. A Youtube Celebrity! How cool?!
Right after making it big as a Youtube sensation, Lancome made her their official video make up artist.
She even does tutorials on Skincare & Fashion. She is so beautiful that I can't take my eyes off her! (I'm straight guys.)
One thing that's admirable about her is that she knows what she's talking about. Some youtube-ers, they tend to get carried away and their tutorials are not as informative as we expect it to be. Michelle Phan explains whatever she's giving tutorial on so well, that makes it easier to understand. Beauty with brains!
Over the years, her video quality and production has improved so much - she inserts drama and skits in her tutorials and videos, that makes her really creative. Oh did I mention, she draws really well too!
Check her out guys. She's something ;)

Michelle Phan - gorgeous!
As you can see, this blog post title has an apostrophe and an S behind the name Michelle. So most definitely there's gonna be about TWO of them isn't it? Yup! Maybe three..
It was the first day I met my course mates and we awkwardly sat all in a class room, being college students, everyone tends to be friendlier in some sort of way, not as bad as schooling days where the first day would be like you're a total alien, no friends approaching you, and you don't even want to approach anyone!
So everywhere you go, the first thing you do is the "Ice Breaking" Session. The lecturer in charge asked us: "Tell me your name and what's your greatest fear" Rather interesting isn't it? Instead of "Tell me your name and where do you live".. Hahah.
So it went on and on.. everyone saying out their names and their greatest fear. Then it came to this girl's turn. She wore a black snap back and a white tee, she had really thick and long hair, fair pale skin and bracers. She's a head-turner.
She said "My name is Michelle Leong, and my biggest fear are PIMPLES."
HAHAHAHAH! What a great answer isn't? It is true, and she looked like the kind of person that's scared of zits popping out of her face kinda girl. (That's a good thing)
We instantly clicked on the first day of college, she's really beautiful and yes she talks a lot. She often uses hand gestures when she speaks. I don't know if anyone notices it but, I sort of do. She's the kind of girl that dresses very Hipster-ish and Rock-ish, often wearing her combat boots/ platformed boots, and snap backs, all those studded accessories and studded sandals. She became so popular for her snap backs - especially on the IACT Confession page. Every dude knows Michelle Leong. Right? Hahah.
At first I never thought that Michelle would be the friend I would share stories with, share dinner or whatever we're eating with together, joke around on silly things and not getting offended, most importantly I am willing to take criticism from her, because she's the kind of person that does not take sides. She would take time to listen to both sides, irregardless on what or whom, she would take time to listen and calm the situation down.
There was one time she was the only one who was willing to stay back with me for dinner, that was when I realized she's such an open minded person, that had her own personal stories that she shared with me, and I appreciate that she did so, because I know she isn't the kind of person who would randomly blurt out on herself.
So then I knew I could place my trust in her, and I was hoping she would too. I enjoy listening to her funny stories about boys and how she wishes to have a steady relationship, despite being so in love with G-Dragon from Big Bang... How crazy she would go when someone mentions Chatime, or bubble tea, and I love drawing fake tattoo's on her arms (No, I just love scribbling stuff on you, heh) and what color she'd like to dye her hair next, I also like listening to her bad taste in men with scruffy facial hair & old, old men. (Euw) but I love her awesome taste in music that's much similar to mine, oh and I can tolerate her 24/7 singing-to-everything habit.
I've been in college for more than a month now, done with the first semester and all I can say is, out of everything I've been through, throughout this entire new journey is that you will learn to be wiser at handling presentations and college assignments, to be more careful with the people you mix with, unless you're a total douche who would prioritize other things instead of important things. Sad to say but there are some people who does that. And not just do that, but complain about others who takes more action towards completing a task.
And when I start going on and on, ranting about all these negative nonsense, is when Michelle steps in, reminding me to not give a damn about it and just be happy!
So thank you babe, I hope to have a long lasting friendship with you.
Oh and, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
The beeeeautiful Michelle Leong Kah Kay
Last but not least, the girl that plays Rachel Berry on Glee, and the girl that's supposed to marry Cory Monteith and be his wife, Lea Michelle.
She's a great singer with a booming voice, but now scarred with a broken heart, on the death of boyfriend and co-star Cory Monteith a.k.a Finn Hudson. He passed away recently due to drugs and alcohol abuse. I just don't understand why some people would destroy their lives and worst, destroy the lives of their loved ones, just to be involve with drugs and alcohol. What do you see and what good does it bring to die of it? Nothing. I am a huge fan of Glee, I've been watching it and following them eversince Glee Season 1. The death of course shocked me and the world, but the most saddening part is to see what Lea Michelle has to go through, enduring sadness and grief on the person she cared for the most. It's something magical really, when two total strangers from two different worlds, meet out of nowhere and instantly become friends, and from being friends, it blossoms into a beautiful relationship that eventually leads to marrying each other. Not everyone in this world gets that beautiful opportunity, and I am happy and thankful to say that I am one of the chosen ones who's blessed enough to have that 'something magical'.
And so did Cory & Lea Michelle. So it saddens me think, what if it happened to me? What if I am placed in Lea's shoes? Would I be able to handle it as gracefully as she did? I don't know really. It scares me. It somehow made me realize how blessed I am to have met someone who would do anything in the world for me, and of course, how much I admire Lea Michelle's tough heart.
Her acceptance speech for the Teen's Choice Awards 2013 moved me to tears. It's really sad, how she delivered her speech in that shaky tone of voice that's just about to burst into another sad cry, and yet remain so smiley and thankful to the fans.

I hope Lea Michelle would continue to embrace this beautifully, and hopefully have the will power to keep holding on. She's a tough cookie.
Lea Michelle & Cory Monteith together, :(
RIP, Cory.
RIP, Cory.
