I started a Youtube channel

-

 I started a Youtube channel like I've been meaning to for a long time now and it's been pretty great learning how to video edit and actually publish a YouTube video. I'm 3 videos in now and it still feels pretty terrifying to hit publish on a video. I guess sub consciously I actually care how well a video does but I really try to avoid the analytics because this is still very much a learning experience. But for what its worth it has been immense fun vlogging with my friends and with that I actually have to spend more time with my friends which is just golden. The goal is to just post vlogs, having them made the way I want them. 

Uniqueness is an issue with me somewhat right now. My third vlog came out really not the way I wanted it to and that kinda made me question what kind of content I do want to make. I consume a lot of David Dobrik content on Youtube and he's basically my ideal vlogger. What I try to create is a lot of the same type of content but obviously with my own ideas and crazy touch. Writing this right now a doubt of mine got cleared. I was worried I'm trying too much to BE David Dobrik that it's actually just pathetic what I'm doing, but just now I kind of realise that I'm not stealing his ideas or his process. I guess i'm just a fan of his type of vlogging with his friends and that's something I love to watch so it's what I want to create. I'm glad that got cleared. 

I somewhat understand what sort of content I want to produce now and that wouldn't have been if my third vlog hadn't come out the way I wanted it to. The next thing I need to figure out is my unique touch that every YouTuber talks about in length like oh just be yourself and do all that. Which is and definitely might be true yes but can I blame anyone if someone just got ahead of the game. Also creating the content you like and want to is just you being you too ig.

A journey to the forbidden: Ritigala strict nature reserve

-

Ritigala Strict Nature Reserve is located in the Anuradhapura district of the North central province. It is one of the few high altitude forests, encompassing  an area of 1,528.1 hectares and was declared a Strict Natural Reserve in 1941.  These areas are mainly declared for the purpose of research and for preservation and protection of large, unspoiled areas of wilderness.  Since it is home to species which are rare and possibly extinct from the region, and also because its isolation provides ideal conditions for the evolution of species, the conservation of such ecosystem is considered extremely important. Enough technicality, more about the trip. The hired bus proved very useful to sing in our sweet tones and be loud both the way there and the ride back. We were surprisingly on time and left at 5 in the morning. We took the Dambulla route as we had breakfast planned at  Benthota bake house  which had fantastic food and great service. It started rain...

Opportunities: A pathway to network engineering

-

 A network engineer is a technology professional who is highly skilled in maintaining the connectivity of networks in terms of data, calls, videos and wireless network services. The fundamental goal of a network engineer is to provide maximum network infrastructure, security and performance to the end users. A network engineer is required to have the necessary skills to plan, implement and oversee these computer networks. It is a very promising career which Payscale  concludes generates about an average annual base salary of 700,000 LKR in Sri-Lanka. It is a field that has even more opportunity abroad. Plus it seems it has a higher chance of obtaining PR. Manishka is someone who took the path less travelled and proceeded to pursue his dreams of becoming a network engineer after doing his London O/Ls. Realising that A/Ls just weren't for him, he researched his way into, in his opinion the best possible way forward to learn network engineering. He enrolled in the Esoft HND in co...
