Where has the little month off from school gone? I guess being busy with the holidays and all, it just seemed to fly by faster than I thought.

Get Outta Here 2011… Welcome 2012!
While 2011 was said to be one of the worst years for the world in a whole in recent memory, it wasn’t all bad for me. 2011 brought to me a cold January and half of February with weekly or sometimes twice weekly snow storms. I am an avid winter and snow lover. Snow for me seems to just make everything in the world better. It started warming up mid-February and I saw no more snow and still haven’t and it will be January. Not happy about that one, 2011. In February my friend Kevin celebrated his 20th birthday by going to a strip club called Deja Vu. This was my first time ever at a strip club and it was an experience. After the 80th time of me saying I don’t want a lap dance, you would think they would get the clue that I don’t want one. They didn’t. I would have to say that some of these girls daddy issues have made them a real talent on the pole. All joking aside… I don’t know if I will ever go back. I guess you can say that isn’t my thing.
May 2011 will forever be remembered to me for being the month that my friend Kevin and I quit saying we were going to do sketches on You Tube and finally actually started making the sketches on You Tube and created our channel, JakeLX Entertainment. Surprisingly, we were a hit with our friends and family and weren’t bad at it. It is amazing to watch our first video “Touchin’ Cousins” and seeing how poorly acted it was and edited it was and to now watch our newer videos. The acting has sure improved and the editing is way better. In December I had to take down all of our original 15 or so videos because we had used copyrighted music. At first it was kinda sad for me, but it turns out it was a blessing. Now on our JakeLX Entertainment channel we have two videos. Two videos that are very well acted, edited, and with great stories. I believe our motto in 2012 will be quality over quantity. We learned in 2011 that you can put out a new video weekly, but that doesn’t mean they are great videos.
What is the future of JakeLX Entertainment? For starters I hope that it includes anyone that is reading this right now. I hope we get more viewers and I’m hoping that in 2012 we will have more people, like you, who like what you see and will spread our channel to their friends and family. I guess what I’m saying is that we strongly depend on you. I think 2012 will also be the year that JakeLX Entertainment and my friend Brandon’s channel, BrandonR24, will work a lot more closely. Our latest video “Holiday(Christmas) Party” was our first joint effort and it came off great. It was also the first time that I ever wrote any sort of script for any video. Normally, our videos are all improv, but not this one. I had an idea and the majority of the video was a script by me. Brandon added some scenes and shot a lot of the video. Everything wrapped up together into an awesome holiday themed video. We also used the joint logo “JLX-BR24″ for this video, so anytime you see that logo you will know that it was a joint effort.
In October I turned 21 and had an awesome party that I really appreciate everyone for coming to that did. My birthday week was an awesome one that I won’t ever forget. The Saturday after my birthday I had the chance to audition for “The Real World 27″. I woke up bright and early and was the second person in the door. I unfortunately wasn’t asked to stay back and didn’t get a call back. Bummer, right? Not! I did something that I had been wanting to do for forever. I would audition again, but who knows what will happen by the next time they are near me. The night after the audition I went to my first bar, The Soundbar. Now, I’m not too sure if I would classify it as a bar. It has a dance floor albeit small, and online is called a video lounge. The music is fast paced and so LOUD and I love it. It is so much fun and I always leave with my friends with huge smiles on our faces.
In November of 2011 I started using my JakeLX channel on You Tube as a personal vlog. It is a place where I talk about current events or whatever is on my mind. I even sometimes talk about personal stuff, though most of that is way too boring to talk to people about. I also have taken my character, Melanie Pearazzisono, which is loved by many and started an improved sketch show with her. It is a weekly news type show called “Simply Melanie” that is released every Friday. I plan for it to be the only sketch on my personal channel. It just isn’t something that fits well with the JakeLX Entertainment channel. In November I started this blog. Why? Because I try to only vlog once a day, but usually have a lot more to say and talk about. This blog gives me the chance to post multiple times throughout the day. It has had a slow start but is starting to get more and more views.
I guess you can say 2011 is the year that I started working towards a dream and became more social. While my dream of being famous and an actor are pretty new, they were always probably there. Something just had to pull them out of me. I am still attending college, but wish everyday that someone will find me on You Tube, Twitter, or on this blog and think I hae potential. It can happen and I feel like as long as I keep doing all of these things that I love maybe it will happen. It can happen. It will happen. So this is me saying that I am looking at a wonderful 2012 for not only myself, ut for everyone in the whole world!
Thank you for all the support,
JakeLX
Fergie and Josh’s Christmas Card
First of all, if you don’t know it, Fergie and Josh Duhamel are married. I’m always shocked at the amount of people I come across that don’t know that. Anyway, they released their Christmas card for this year. I really like it and think doing caricature drawing was a fun and awesome idea. While I don’t hate the Kardashian’s card seen here, I do think this card is more festive and fun and captures the spirit of the holiday season! I also love the added touch of the dog peeing on the snowman Josh. You can see it in the link below.

It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Prison
Amber Portwood is not having a great week at all. First, she hits a car after following to close behind it and now she is going back to jail. Why? Well, she missed her last probation hearing and then was found with “old” pills that she didn’t have a prescription for. I don’t think Amber is a druggie at all. That would surprise me. She may be trash, but she hasn’t ever been comparable to the trashiest, “Teen Mom 2″‘s Jenelle. I don’t understand why she would miss a probation hearing though? I am left confused as to why something so easy to go to was so hard for her to attend? On “Teen Mom” I love getting to see her adorable daughter Leah, but loathe when I have to sit and watch the dram between Amber and her ex and Leah’s father Gary. Maybe after two Christmas’ in jail Amber will get to be home for Christmas 2012.

Birthday Cake Jesus
I have to say that customers at the grocery store that I work at are very entertaining for various. reasons. The video below describes one of the funniest that I have encountered while working there. I was seriously rendered speechless at what this woman was telling me. Enjoy!
Bieber Never Believed In Santa
Apparently teen pop sensations Justin Bieber was never allowed to believe in Santa. His mother didn’t allow him to believe because she was afraid that once he found out, then he wouldn’t believe in God. I guess I can see his mothers logic, but still. Santa is a part of most children’s childhood. It kinda makes me sad for Justin Beiber that he never got to have that.
I found out that Santa wasn’t real when I was five when I discovered the Easter Bunny stuff in the back of my mothers car on accident. I remember asking her if it meant Santa wasn’t real either. I don’t remember how I felt then, but now just reminding myself of it I feel devastated. Even today now at 21, I like to think that Santa is real. It may not be the gift giving Santa, but I just refuse to believe that he is a fake or a fraud. Santa is someone and that is what I choose to believe. He is REAL.

A Friendly Holiday Reminder
Well, the holidays are not approaching, they are almost here. Hanukkah is a day away and Christmas is only six days away. I posted a few days ago about my, JakeLX Entertainment’s, newest video. It is called “Holiday(Christmas) Party” and was a collab with another You Tube channel, BrandonR24. This has seemingly been a success, so we will probably do more collabs in the future.
