Well, here I am, guys...In all my awkward, imperfect, unedited glory.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to submit a question! Thank you for caring, encouraging me, and being excited about something that I wasn't too excited about myself. And if you still like me or like me even more after watching this, I profusely thank you for that as well.
Overall, I'm really glad I did this. It will give you all an opportunity to see the real me, help you get a feel for my personality outside the blogosphere, and hopefully inspire you to face your own fears...even if your voice shakes or you blink your eyes too much.
As an added bonus, here are 10 self-deprecating thoughts I had while watching this video. I won't be offended if they match your own.
1. That rapid blinking though.
2. I really do sound like I'm about to cry. I'm glad I pointed out that I'm not.
3. I should've brushed my eyebrows before I filmed this.
4. I wish "um" was a more intelligent sounding word.
5. This is painful to watch, but at least I have a few semi-charming moments here and there.
6. "I don't know if this is backwards or not." Seriously? It's a webcam, not a mirror. Ugh.
7. Arrgghhh! I forgot to say the name of the guy who asked the funny question about braces. THANK YOU, ERIC. I'M SORRY I FORGOT TO SAY YOUR NAMEEE.
8. DAMN IT. I also forgot to say the name of the guy who asked question #11. Sorry, Grant!!!
9. That junk food analogy wasn't bad. High-five to myself.
10. YAY, IT'S OVER.
Thank you. I love you. Please stick around.

Your video was really great. You come across as a very real, thoughtful and sensitive person. That is not always easy.
