Hey everyone. This is my blog that I write specifically for my videos and my youtube subscribers. Here you can find out exclusive information about me, my friends, and my latest videos. If you read this, please leave a comment, I'd really appreciate that. There's a lot to read, I know, but I try to write in a way that is fairly easy to read.
So tonight I posted a new video...well not technically a new video, but one that most people haven't seen before called "Ditchboarding." I made it about 6 months ago one day when my friends and I were bored and decided to go wakeboarding in a ditch behind a fourwheeler.
It was on youtube for a couple of months, and then when I hit 100 subscribers, I got this crazy idea to change accounts, and I decided to remove Ditchboarding and put it on my "new" account, youtube.com/bgandfriends. But after I realized that switching accounts at that point would kill me because my Re: Smosh- Anthony Gets a Haircut was on billgrip and was really helping more people find billgrip, I decided to stick with billgrip, and now I'm glad I did.
Someday down the road though, I'd like to do something like davedays did and switch accounts knowing that I'll be the number 1 most subscribed comedian of the month. Dave had an old account called Overdaedge182, and when he got to about 1,500 subscribers, he created davedays. A few excellent videos later, and the number 1 most subscribed comedian of the month for 3 months in a row, Dave is now on his way to youtube glory.
But I don't know what I would use besides billgrip...and I'm still trying to think of something.
Billgrip is just so me.
Anywho, I decided to re-post Ditchboarding because I like to post a new video at least every 2 weeks, and I didn't have anything for this time. I have so many ideas that need to be turned into gold, but the problem right now is a lack of time. The end of the semester is nearing, and I have some big final projects due in a couple of my classes that are stressing me out like crazy. Not only that, but I work 20-25 hours a week, which isn't an incredible amount, but is still another thing that causes stress.
I'd really like to make a Christmas video, but I haven't quite developed that idea. I will say now that I have a great video planned for my 20th birthday in January.
When I took ditchboarding off, I had, like I said, about 100 subscribers. Now I have over 600, so I'm pretty sure that quite a few people will see the video that haven't before. So I hope you all like it, and I really appreciate those of you who like my videos enough to read my blog. I'll have a new video out soon.

Billgrip- A.D.D. Speech
Yesterday I posted the video of my A.D.D. speech that I gave my senior year of high school. I've had it on my computer for quite sometime now, but I finally decided to go ahead and post it...mostly so I could delete it off my computer and watch it on youtube when I'm like 50.
I wrote the speech about a day before districts and my speech coach said that if I practiced it 10 times I could probably make it to state...but I only ended up practicing it 8 times. It ended up that only the top 2 go to state, and I was bummed because I got third. I honestly don't think it would have mattered if I would have practiced it 10 times because the speech judges were obviously smoking crack.
The top 2 speeches were both from females and neither speech made me laugh. I'm not sexist, but I just find that very females have the capacity of actually being legitimately funny. The only thing was that they had props for their speech. The only props for my speech was myself. But I thought that the joke I made about my lack of props and how I forgot them would be enough to compensate for my lack of props.
I guess I was wrong.
Oh well, the speech still ended up going pretty well, and I got to give it again at our home speech night where everyone in speech presents to a home crowd. I feel that I did really well on it that night, and that was the night that you guys saw on the video.
Last year I took a speech class and I pretty much kicked butt at it and got an A with flying colors. Giving a speech is just something that I really don't have a problem to. However, I'm not going to sit here and lie to you by pretending it is easy. I get nervous just like everyone else, but even though I get nervous, I use my nervousness and the adrenaline caused my nervousness to enhance my speech. That is why I felt really comfortable giving an entertainment speech about A.D.D, because I could realease my nervousness in the form of movement, which made the A.D.D. effect more real.
Anyways, I hope you all liked the video, and I do have some plans for more videos soon. I am hoping to make one this weekend. I find that the more videos I make, the easier ideas come to me. You might be seeing more of Crazy Charles from the Trick or Treat video...but no guarantees that will be my next video.
Well, thanks for reading my blog, and thanks for supporting my hobby of making videos. Have a great week,

Welcome!
Hey everyone! If you are reading this, then I would like to congratulate you for stumbling across my blog. I plan on using this blog to keep my fans updated on my videos and to give them exlusive info and personal opinions on my videos.
I may also throw in some random things now and then that don't have anything to do with my videos, so this blog may also give you a chance to learn more about me! I am usually a pretty good writer, and I can be quite wordy sometimes...so expect some of my posts to be rather long.
But you don't have to read all of it.
