RE: lipshock

WTF stalkers?! Okay, I never knew it could get that crazy on YT! I know people loved your tuts, but WOW.
And I had no clue there was a competition for WOC tuts. No offense to anyone but thats stupid. Sure, now you have 2000 subscribers but who cares?! I guess now with all these big YT "celebs" its all for the fame, right?

Anyways, we'll all miss your tuts. I know I was a huge fan of them.
And thanks for letting us in on what it really was all about. I personally was very curious.

Aww...congrats hunny on all your rewards of your hard work. Now that you do say that I do remember seeing some weird comments but I thought it was just random. Believe me hunny I understand haha I've got some weird ass emails and some weird things happen to me in IRL from camming. Just be careful and keep your head up. Return when your ready or eff youtube, you got real fans right here.

Aww well as the above poster said she is busy with moving and everything but Nicky will be GREATLY missed <33


I know. I absolutely loved her videos. She was the first person I subscibed to on your tube. And the reason I found specktra. Someone on youtube mentioned something about her being on Specktra and i googled it to see if i could find more makeup tips. LOL.

I was so bummed when I found out she left. I literally probably bought about 10 or 15 eyeshadows because of her tutorials. But I'm sad now because i can't remember all the videos and will probably screw it up if I try to re-create one of her looks. All I can remember is to pair parrot e/s with haunting e/s LOL.

I hate stuff like that - I've dealt with crap like that since I started dating [sadly, its mostly from my family, they say more hateful shit than my own classmates]. As of cattiness among WoC YTers, I never would have expected that. Its really disappointing to me because we should be banding together, not competing over subscribers...wtf, how trivial.

Great job on the Dean's List bit, lipshock. Let's hope I can do half of what you've done when I graduate.

From your family? Oh, wow, I am not sure if I could handle that. My mother and the rest of my family have always been open minded on interracial dating. They just care about whether or not the person is a scumbag. :] If you ever want to chit chat about this, message me. I've had to deal with tension coming from my boyfriend's family, so I kind of know where you are coming from.

And thank you so much! I never realized how hard it was to make Dean's List, especially at such a large university. I have to admit it definitely is going to push me to try and make it again this upcoming Fall. :]

OH LORD, you have no idea. The guy I'm dating now? We first met when I was a freshman, and his family made him break up with me on Christmas Eve, and threatened to kick him out if he didn't. After we both dated others for a year, he eventually told his parents to fuck off, and we got back together. My parents are actually cool with interracial dating.

My fam more accepting of me and my personality now, but when I was in junior high, it was pretty bad. When I was 13, and my gran and her husband were talking about me, and he said, "She'll give it up to some white boy eventually." When I was 14, my mum told me to name 3 black friends. She was trying to prove a point, [I had only one black girlfriend in school] but it pissed me off - she knew most black kids hated my ass for the usual stuff: "She listens to white folks music, she dates white people, she speaks too proper, all she does is read," blah blah blah.

Goddamn, I'm getting angry all over again.

Okay anyways. I'm so off topic. But yeah! What university are you at? My grades were...HORRIBLE last year, but I'm hoping to bring up my GPA [2.7] so I can get into Centenary. Its my DREAM school. Got advice for a lameoid like me?

LOL, that's so true for me,too! My mom is so concerned about race for some reason and will point out that I have more white friends than black. If I'm listening to a song made by a white person I get this weird look from people. If I speak "proper English" or get good grades (I haven't gotten under a 4.0 GPA since I started high school) then I'm a sell-out. WTF.

Oh lord I'm so glad I'm not the only one. LOL. My mum has made a complete change, I have to make her NOT listen to 3 Doors Down or whatever [sorry, I totally hate them, the White Stripes is where its at]; and she's always wondering whats up with my friends. My classmates are a lot nicer, too; most of them have actually branched out and listen to some of the stuff I do, which is really cool. They can't handle Slipknot, though...poor babies.

And WTF sell out? That's a bit much.

Well, I can't handle Slipknot, either. haha

It's funny that people would call me a sell-out because I've ALWAYS been this way. It's not like I abandoned "black culture" and all of a sudden began to embrace whatever a "stereotypical white culture" is.
I've always listened to a wide range on music (rap to techno to punk to metal) and I've always gotten good grades.

And who said being intelligent, having a mixed-group of friends (mostly non-black, though), and enjoying a variety of music was a "white thing" anyway? Grrr...
