Travel Diaries, Jericho AR 2019 [Part 2]// blog everyday in september day 23

This blog will have different phots.
I have to make several parts because I took so many photos. These photos are from my sudden trip down south. I said it was sudden because it was unplanned and unexpected. One of my aunts passed and the folks down south planned the funeral LITERALLY the week after my aunt died leaving me and my grandpa little time to get down there, save up enough money, etc.

These photos will be in the order that I found them in, or gathered them in. Here are some photos crossing the Miss River. This was on the way back. it was too dark to get any photos on the way there. And when I go down south in a few weeks it will be too dark then to get any photos. 

Since the next time I go, it will be at midnight. 

If it will be midnight maybe I can get some dawn photos! Let's put it that way.


The river looks so high. it looks like it's not even that far from the bridge. 


Honestly, the bridge and water does not look too far from my angle!


The water looks more clear in this photo. 


The only field I can get is the grass since corn is a summer crop. Some of these photos were taken my first day down there.


Now that's a small town. When I was in the burbs the pop there was 56K or more. 


Walked down the road. Here is some church that I saw during the walk I took.





That lawn looks like a mini parking lot.

I went to a funeral and regretted it. There were WAY too many people at that church. You may have seen how small it is in previous photos that I have posted. 




That is a small underpass. 



Green, green and more green.



The country road.



Country dusk is so amazing. How is it different than city dusk? You'll have to look at my dusk photos. You decide lol





Reaching the bridge going back into IL. I always wondered what that thing was on the bridge. That structure on the bridge


Ok there was some major flooding here.



This was a little rocky wall. I believe this is seen before crossing the bridge on the way there.

I honestly like going down south but the one thing I don't like is the 8-hour drive. Depending on what part of IL you're in it takes 4 hours to get out then you're in MO for like 2 hours. This bus ride will be longer since it stops in TN.

I'd fly since that takes like 2 hours but flying is more expensive. I would take the train because at least it has a dining car and a car with a bed.  The train is less pricy than flying. My mom and I plan on taking the Greyhound bus.

I'd like to know your preferred traveling method. Car? Bus? Flying? Train?

I honestly HATED that outfit. My grandpa is a wait until the last minute person and didn't think to ask his sister BEFORE we left what the attire will be. Didn't ask until AFTER we got down there and I didn't have the right attire. REALLY?!  that makes no sense to wait until AFTER you get somewhere to ask someone funeral attire!

I am not used to a small southern church because I grew up in the mid-west. I got southern vibes. Grass field.
it stopped raining.
Think of this as when your grandpa didn't think to ask what the attire for the funeral was and you have to do last-minute shopping travel apparel.

Hate Is NOT Constructive Criticism

In the content creator industry, people have a very missed up thinking when it comes to feedback on YouTube (or anything). When will people learn the difference between explaining POLITELY why you didn't find a video helpful vs outright hating on that person's content just because YOU don't like it? I decided to work from home. I decided to build my cryptocurrency blogs such as Weku, Whaleshares, etc. I still want to do some freelance writing. I decided to vlog about my self-employment journey on YouTube in hopes that anything is hard but it's up to you to put in the time and effort. I made a video on why you should work from home. This guy, who clearly didn't watch the video, hated on it just because he didn't like it/my content. And some people tried to defend him saying it's criticism. Not showing names since I don't want a witch hunt. Here is the video if you wanna see it.  Another girl, who clearly didn't watch the video, defended tha...

Neurotypicals, Stop Holding Us On Your Standards

The worst part about being in a world for Nts is having to be held on their standards. It's so hard being in a world where you have to function in a difficult setting. I wish Nts can have some compassion for us. For instance, we struggle with jobs. Things overwhelm us very easily. While the Nts can work through it, sometimes we can't. Imagine us posting on Facebook or Twitter saying we have to quit our job because it was too overwhelming, getting bullied constantly, etc. Nts will act like they're better and start shaming you for it. Saying you need to 'suck it up.' If it was that easy, we would do it. Nts need to realize that just because they can tough it out doesn't mean we can and doesn't give them the green card to shame those who can't.  I mean at least have a savings account and have money saved up to hold you until you get some sort of back up plan ready. Most of the time, we get fired from jobs for not moving fast enough. Why do emp...

Why Your Channel Isn't Growing On YouTube

It's hard not to blame YouTube's algorithm for the reason you're not growing. It's particularly on YouTube for not alerting the subscribers of your uploads. It's not all on YouTube though. It's somewhat their fault why you're not growing. Channel Appearance , does your channel make people want to check it out? Of course, no one is going to stick around if your channel has no banner, profile picture, attention-grabbing thumbnails. There are several tutorials you can look up on how to make graphics for your channel. Or you can pay someone on Fiverr to make graphics for you. Think of it as a book, the book has to have an attention-grabbing cover to make you wanna buy it. Or a movie, the movie has to have a good poster to get you to go see it. Sometimes, looks do matter. Sometimes, you do judge a book by its cover. I admit I don't have Photoshop skills. You can do some basic things on there. Your Channel Has No SEO ,  this is how people will find your v...
