Memento Mori From a Learning Youngster
Gosh... has it already been a year? It feels like just yesterday when I was in the Philippines and doing homework. Since I was on vacation I had to bring my school work, and I was also still adjusting. I cannot remember.. somewhere around 12 am to 6 am in that time I was browsing around to check if anyone updated. To my joy I saw that Mark updated. A weird channel named Unus Annus, with one of my favourite youtubers in a white suit and with someone I've never seen before. I was there and watched the first video the moment it came, and I fell in love with it. From the moment it was delivered I felt so many feelings. Wondering how that’ll work out and wondering how it’s going to work.
As the days went on I just remember so much... this entire year doesn’t even feel that long. In the beginning It felt like such a long time away... now here it is.
I am going to miss those times where I was staying up very late past midnight, watching the videos I had missed the previous days. I remember biking and just laughing so very hard, because of your hilariousness. I am going to miss half asleep on some videos, and I won’t lie, some were a bit boring at first but I do regret not being fully interested. I will miss getting that joyful notification everyday around 12:00 p.m. (special “besides-Ethan-posting-late”), and that stressful notification when I am very behind and it keeps piling. I am going to miss those times when I had so many videos to catch up on I had something to do that day. I had something to watch and I had the thought “I have to watch this because this is temporary”. In fact even up till now I have been preparing myself for the end, almost accepting, but the lower that clock gets the more I feel so emotional. I have truly grew on your relationship. Honestly at first I was expecting Jack(septiceye) and was a bit disappointed seeing it wasn’t, but as it kept going I began to realise how well your chemistry works. I have truly learned to feel more attached with Ethan, and I will really feel somewhat of a temporary emptiness once the channel goes.
There are so many people here that I’ve never really taken the time to write or say anything or do anything for Unus Annus. I believe that you will stay true to your word and you’d read all of those and... this (and my other two posts) will cover for everything I wish I could have done. For all the art I wish i’ve made for you, for all the opportunities to make music for you, to do the weird “jump-in-freezing-cold-water” challenge, bleachus annus, and all the rest. This year you two have made me feel the best. Even those times when I wanted to watch something else I watched you because not only of the panic, but the care I have so much for you two. I have always dreamed of meeting you (mark, and now than) for the longest time... you have been apart of my life and I want to just let you know how much you matter to me. And in your name, no matter how hard, I have been inspired to keep on going and to keep staying positive. I will really miss you when this channel is gone. I haven’t really appreciated it as much as I should have when I was upset. I wish I had. Because even without me knowing it your little personality traits and quirks and vocabulary has influenced me. But even if it is too late to watch them all, I won’t ever forget what this channel has done for and to me. I learned so, so much. That ranges from “don’t get pepper sprayed” and how to commit tax-fraud, to how to let go of things and how to properly cope with good thoughts..
Your songs in the channel have always made me smile and happy.. I won’t forget those either.
So this is goodbye Mark, Ethan, Amy, Evan, the editors, Chica, Spencer, Bodi and to the guy who has to go warehouse shopping I dont wanna get his name wrong so I wont risk it, to Momiplier, the guests/professionals that had helped in videos, and to everyone else.
We will always remember, and we will always miss you. But do not worry, for we will be happy it had happened... even if we shed a few tears.
Love you all oh so much... one day I will see you both. Either at the same time or seperate, I will.
Thank you for the year, Unus Annus. Memento Mori.
ALSO I CANNOT WAIT TO WATCH OTHER CHANNELS AGAIN AND NEW CONTENT FROM ETHAN AND MARK AND YES.
