why i started my you-tube channel

I haven't posted here in a while so I decided I should post something. Today I'm going to try my best to explain why I started my channel and why its called Never Too Old for Dolls (NTOD).  I first started my channel in elementary school. You-tube wasn't really that big at the time but it was getting bigger. I thought it was a cool idea because I loved taking photos and making videos so I started my channel. My first videos were random. I had cat videos (which i think you can still find some of them but I deleted a lot of them), I had weird spy videos and I had one baby alive video with my only baby alive doll at the time, Josiph. that one is still on my channel just a different name then it originally was. My channel name at this point was Ange Pecan (my fake name). Then I sort of forgot about my channel. I didn't post very often, we moved out of our house, and we were living with my aunt for the summer.  That was a very upsetting and depressing time for me but that's a story for another day. Then we moved into the house we are currently living in and I bought my second baby alive, Sophia, and started making doll videos. My thoughts and goals when I started my channel back up were very similar to what they are now. At this point I was in 7th grade and I was still nervous what people would think if they new I played with dolls and I wanted to change that, so I changed my channel name to never too old for dolls. I think I changed it a bit more than that but I can't remember.  I wanted to show people they don't have to be afraid of who they are and what they like and that is still my goal.  Labels shouldn't control you, the age suggestions on toys are just that, suggestions! It shouldn't matter your age or gender, if you like dolls you go for it. Don't be afraid of what others think. Yes they might judge you but if they don't like you because of what you like they aren't worth your time, and some people will like you because you're not afraid to show what you like and who you are. So in conclusion, don't let labels control you, don't be afraid of what people think of you because you are amazing. Make sure to go check out my channel. I'm currently trying to get to 2000 subscribers and if I get there before August, I will be giving away a doll. When I reach 3000 subscribers, I will be doing another giveaway. Thanks for reading this post. Always remember, labels shouldn't control you.
