From private practice to public premiere: Carmina’s first YouTube debut changes everything.

Every day, I would join Lyn’s livestream after being active and chatting with others who were also watching. Lyn once advised us to premiere long videos since they count toward public watch hours, just like livestreams. She suggested they be over ten minutes, but to me, that felt too short premieres felt more like livestreams where you entertain viewers for one, two, or even three hours straight. Recently, while on vacation, I decided to try my first premiere since my video was an hour and thirty-six minutes long. At first, I was nervous as a newbie, unsure if it was the right move, but sometimes you have to step out of your comfort zone to see what might help with YouTube watch hours . Carmina joined her friend's livestream to announce an upcoming premiere on Tuesday, January 13, Philippine time , since many viewers are in different time zones.

No Contact is the Best Solution

I have notice for the past months when I have been staying at home you come across friends who you chat with everyday or you have friends who suddenly disappear without letting you know what has happened to them.

There is no reason to wait for their call or message for them because if they really want to reach out to you they will f...

Status Symbol of Your Life

We come across a discussion with someone and they ask what your status is doesn’t mean the status if you are single, married, divorce or widow. They are asking the status if you are poor, middle or rich. Does it really matter what status you are among your friends? This is my story I came across from when I had started living in the Philippines to explain why it doesn’t matter to me what status you are and who knows you may also agree or disagree with me. When I moved here in the Philippines I had to start from the bottom just like anyone else moving to another foreigner country as we all have moved across another place other than what you are use too your living environment because more dramatic than what you are use too. In the beginning you cannot complain where you’re living because this is a part of life that comes with adjustment period not only for yourself but the people who are involved. When you live with other people who not only a family member and em...
