No vlog this week because I am a baddie

but will next week maybe

*cough cough* Im sick

But seriously guys, no booing me for this, not making a vlog tonight. My throat has been screaming at me, therefore I'm just going to take meds and hope my voice is less bad when at school tomorrow. Hope everyone had a good weekend!

Mike is vlogging now

Hey Pegvloggers,
So Mike (some of you may know him) has recently started to make vlogs as well!
Yay for vlogging!

Because he doesn't know half of us it doesn't make sense for him to upload on pegvlog, but he has created his own channel, so give his channel a look and subscribe. I'm sure you all remember what it was like to start off vlogging

No vlog this week

Pretty much I haven't been proud of my latest vlogs so I'm going to try some scripted vlogs in the future. So yeah I need to write those. Hopefully a vlog next week? We'll see.

Schweet Sundays coming to you today!

Long story short, I couldn't use my regular vlogging location until quite late at night, and at that point doing voices would be disruptive to my family's sleep. So I shall be filming and uploading today!

Pegvlog quality unexpected rises

Don't worry guys, I'll post something next week and lower it again ;)

In Response to Peter's Vlog

So in Peter's most recent vlog, he mentioned that "keeping in touch" vlogs aren't interesting and that vlogging during the summer was pointless. He also suggested that maybe we should re-purpose PegVlog.

I have a bit to say on the subject, so I thought I'd make a blog post where everyone can see it.

So, when we started this project, it was with the purpose of staying in touch with each other.  I would argue, and Eric commented this as well, that staying in touch doesn't necessarily mean telling people what you did this week, etc, because yeah, sometimes describing your commute and non-descript shift at work aren't super interesting vlog material.  However, staying in touch here can also mean keeping each other present in our lives; by seeing each other next week we keep our friendships going, way stronger than if we didn't. At least, that's how I feel. And a friendship isn't made special by saying to each other "Oh hey, so I ate an ice cream cone today..." Sure, you might say those things too, and they can spark more involved conversation. But you also talk about that kind of stuff with the random people in your classes or coworkers you aren't particularly close to. What makes a friendship special are fun times you share with each other and having conversations that are important.  And, there have been vlogs previously that aren't "what I've been up to" videos that were awesome, like Eric's When I'm Ragnar video - I laughed really hard, and I think that is just as valuable as a more serious vlog, such as Ashley B's Project For Awesome video.

So, rather than "re-purposing" PegVlog, maybe we just need to rethink what making a vlog and staying in touch means: if you have lots of crazy stuff going on in your life, awesome, let us know about that. If not, talk about something that interests you, or that you've been thinking about lately, or rant about something, or something silly that you think would entertain us. Just talk to me. Talk to all of us. Have fun with us. It's just friendship through a different medium.

As for summer vlogs, well, we said in our meeting thing that we weren't going to be "strict" during summer, since we were all in the same city, after all. And if people wanted to vlog, cool, and if not, it's all good. And I guess next summer if we want to do something different then we can deal with it then :P
