I just came to say hello (oh oh oh).... < yea i dont knoww

I know I haven't been on, or made a video in forever.





I'm honestly so sorry. 
I really dont want to make this a long post where all I do is talk about how everything's changed, and how I'm so busy I dont have time for anything and so on.

I want to write this post to let you guys in on whats been going with me and to hopefully hear what's been going on with you, because I've genuinely missed you guys. 

Ok so let me begin. 
I started High School. (yes, I am 15 and yes, I am in 10th grade. In Israel High School is from 10th-12th grade). I have to say that I'm lovin' it (mcdonalds. i'm hungry.)! I have made so many awesome new friends, and i'm still meeting new people everyday. My favorite classes are Film and Economics. Hahah yeah i know Economics sounds super boring but I find it really fun (I know, such a geek. I get it from my dad). 
and now Film, I started out hating it. (i know right?!!!!!!!!!) Why? I'm not quit sure. I think it was the transition between hiding my passion and talent (i guess i can call it that) for so long, and to all of a sudden do it in school and showcase my assignments in front of the whole class to see. I was really stressed out and afraid of disappointing myself. I waited to film my One Take until the very last minute and was nervous about showing it in class (you'd probably think that after nearly reaching 100K views on my Kanani's Epic Vacation! video, a class of 27 kids would be no problem butttt). I was so surprised by the positive feedback I got, yet I didn't feel 'complete' (whooo, we're getting deep here!). The people who choose to watch my videos we're missing. The ones I choose to make content for. I guess, what i'm trying to say here, is the I miss the relationship I have you (yeah YOU, the one reading this right now!). 

Youtube is such a big part of my life that I love and don't want to lose, even if making doll videos is a bit hard for me right now (should I make a post and explain why? I dont want to bore you.. let me know). That being said, I want to upload and make more videos. I honestly have no idea when i'm going to find the time since I get back at like 5:00pm with a ton of school work (OK I'M LYING. I can find the time, its possible.) but i'll try. 
I want to upload a photoshoot.
I want to finish the music video I started with XxXAGforeverXxX.
I want to make more Hunger Games videos.
I want to film the series I have planned.
I want to make the Harry Potter stop motion I have planned.

I want to make my dream perfect stop motion music video.


guys you honestly have no idea how many videos I have planned. I just never get around to filming them.

I have a feeling this turned into the post I didn't want it to become.


ok, i love you, feel free to post (or comment on my channel/inbox me/whatever you can think of) anything from questions to tacos (I should really go and eat somthing) below and I WILL see you laterrr 
byeee <3

3OOO WHAT?!

Hey guys!

FIRST I WANTED TO THANK YOU GUTS SO FREAKING MUCH FOR 3000 SUBSCRIBERS!! I really can't start to explain how much your support means to me and even the though of 3000 people watching my videos just seems unreal to me and I'm truly thankful for that. ❤

I'm going to camp this Monday for two weeks, my goal is to get my two year video up before that. I'm working on it right now and things are going pretty well! My bedroom set isn't going to be as accurate as I hoped for but it will do. 
Here's a quick picture of what I'm doing right now:
 
So yeah that it for this post! Thanks for reading :o)

WHERE HAVE I BEEN AND WHAT HAS BEEN GOING ON

Hey guys!

I want to start off this post by expressing how sorry I am for not getting my two year video up when I planned. I have literally been so busy, even though its summer. School ended on June 20. I spent the five first days just relaxing, hanging out with my friends and trying to get everything organised for my two year video. When I mean get everything organized I mean, planning out the sets, figure out how I want to build everything, buy supplies, ect. My plan was to start actually working on June 25th, after I had a few days to relax. However, my Mom decided it would be fun join my Dad on a mini "vacation" to Jerusalem while he is staying there for his conference. So, instead of spending my week working on my video, I spent it in Jerusalem. It was nice but, a bit boring to be honest. We just got back yesterday and I went straight to editing the video I made with my friend Keddy (Kgirlz1000 on youtube).


So today I got to work on my video (finally!), and started building the set. I'm actually making it look just like my actual human size bedroom so, thats really exciting! If you want a sneak preview on how I'm hoping its going to turn out, be sure to check out my human videos on SevenGroovyGirls0.
So yeah, i'm really sorry that I'm letting everyone down with this video. I'm really trying my best because I want it to be PERFECT for you guys! I really appreciate all your guys support with it and I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of video response I got. I mean, I was expecting to get like 10 submissions but to get 50? Thats all I could ever hope for. I genuinely can not wait to release this video with you guys <3


(this has nothing to do with what I just wrote but..)
If any of you guys read my last post, you would know that my grade put up a play for the whole school! One of the highlights of the show for me was the Black Light Theatre that we did. If you don't know what a Black Light Theatre is, keep reading and then watch the examples. The costumes were such a big part in it and I felt so proud seeing them on stage.
Here are the dances we did, they actually look better live because the colors are brighter but it still looks awesome on camera:

INFINITY - this was my favorite one! The whole thing was choreographed and performed by the group of guys dancing.



ROPES - these costumes were the hardest to make! We cut the "ropes" out of big pieces of really annoying fabric.



SKELETONS - my really close friend was the one who choreographed it.



My scene was so much! I won't post it because its in hebrew but I was pretty cool ;P

So yeah thats all for this post! Yes, I know I haven't posted about the youtube event I've been to but I'm planning on doing that next. I really can't believe how fast the time has passed since my last post... I hope the whole summer doesn't go like this or I'll be back at school before I notice! 
Hope you're having a fun holiday <3

EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED

Hello!

So before I start talking about about everything that's been going out I just wanted to point out the HUGE makeover I did to my blog! It took me a while to figure out how things work but I finally did it! And I can definitely say i'm very proud of the outcome! Also, I really want to use this blog more often, and not just for updates. Maybe some behind the scenes secrets of even short 'doll written' stories about our daily life! If you have any other ideas feel free to leave a comment below! :)

I'm currently still in school until June 20th. I'm in 9th grade right now and in Israel its the last year of middle school. Our school has this tradition that the whole 9th grade puts up a play all by ourselves! We get to write everything, make up the dances, design the sets and everything! I'm working on the sets and I also have an acting role. And, since our play is inspired by Grease, I currently have 'You're the one that I want' stuck in my head :P. I'm having a blast working on everything but we have to stay after school almost everyday until 4pm, which is the main reason why my 'Two Year' video wasn't up on time. trying to get it up as soon as possible, though! Here are some photos from working on the sets:


 Working hard!

 The finished product! 

Sandy's head! LOL, the rest of her body was just scattered all over the room!

I've also been to a 'special event' on Tuesday! I'll have a blog post all about it posted soon so keep an eye out! 

AND (I just felt like I had to talk about it..//) ED SHEERAN AND TAYLOR SWIFT RELEASED A MUSIC VIDEO TO THEIR SONG EVERYTHING HAS CHANGE! I saw it first thing this morning and I was the 100th viewer (yes, yes, the official 100th viewer. Youtube did not get stuck, I know that because there were 72 likes and 56 comments). I actually consider it one of my top accomplishments. 
Being the crazy Ed Sheeran fan I am, I literally couldn't stop crying through the whole thing. My breaking point was seeing daddy Ed. </3 
I just died when he hugged him and touched his perfect ginger hair and now i'm a ghost.
Boo.
I sat in school on tumblr reblogging and staring at every Ed Sheeran gif I saw. I have proof:  http://simply-mayan.tumblr.com/

Hope you're having a lovely day,
Mayan xx

Video updates/SCHOOL RANT

Hey everybody :)

So if you read my older posts, you would know I have a few video ideas in mind. The only problem is, I have NO TIME to make them! :(
School's just been crazy. We get a ton of home work an we usually have 3 tests or quizzes a week [this week its: Biology, Hebrew (I live in Israel- just in case you didn't know ☺) and Language Arts].
Other that I have a bunch of after school activities and private lessons.
I hardly have any time on the computer, let alone time for making videos.


BUT DONT WORRY! We have a bunch of Holidays coming up, including spring break!  [which means i'll have time to make videos!]. 


I have school off: 
Feb 23rd-25th
March 16th-April 2nd (spring break)
April 28th-29th
May 14th- 16th
SUMMER VACATION: JUNE 20th- AUGUST 27th.

So, dont think I quit or anything! I am just way in over my head with school 
work and other responsibilities I dont have much time for video making at 
the moment. NEW VIDEOS WILL COME SOON! :D
I can hardly wait to show them to you guys :)


RANDOM PICTURE I MADE DURING PHOTOSHOP CLASS AT SCHOOL:

(its not finished yet!)
                         

*btw, I'm sorry this is a SUPER boring post. I just wanted to let you know whats up :)

AG MOVIE!

Hi guys!! 

First off I just wanted to thank you for getting me to 16OO! You are the best! <3333
Secondly, I thought i'd let you guys know what I've been planning for the past week.... An AGSM MOVIE!
I'm so excited about it! I wrote half the script and I have the rest all planed out. I'm hoping to get it out as soon as possible (which shouldn't really be a problem since I only have one set to build).
Thanks for reading and I LOVE YOU GUYS!
btw, about the Harry Potter stop motion, I'm putting it aside until after I finish the movie. I'm just super excited about it and I cant wait to work on it. The HP I'll make the HP SM as soon as i'm done with the movie, I promise :)


Byeeee ;)
