This is why&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;Let me begin by saying they’re super nice! kutos to the event planners. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;The whole time  I was at the gathering I was overcome by butterflies in my stomach.  It was the same feeling I get when public speaking; I felt as if I was in third person inside my body watching myself speak.  I became the least interesting person in the world and just stood there thinking: “oh f-, this is happening right now. What do I do? This is like the vlog, but in real-time.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;Eventually I left early because it was too weird! but why? After some pondering I think I’ve got it: Being an avid watcher of the ApprenticeEh Vlogs I know so much already about their lives. I could address everyone by their first name, I know what the inside of their house looks like, and I could actually tell them what they’ve been doing for the last year.  If I really thought about it I could probably even tell them when they each got their last haircut.  It’s a bizarre form of voyeurism that I just can’t get over.  I was introducing myself to someone for the first time that I already knew so much about. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;“Hi, I’m Rianna Finch.” RiannaFinch&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;(Of course you’re Rianna Finch, that’s so obvious. Why am I acting like I didn’t know that?)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;“Uh, hi.. I’m Nathan. So uh.. what have you been up to in the last week.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;(Seriously? You’re here because of the vlog and you ask them what they’ve been doing lately? haha whyyyyyy… facepalm)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;Having had this experience, I’m not sure I can watch the vlogs anymore.  I’m torn about this, but it’s too bizarre in retrospect.  It’s a relationship from a perspective I’d rather not have. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;Good bye vlogs! It’s been a slice. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; (thanks CoreyVidal for the photo) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://thebigcatupstairs.tumblr.com/post/33631905977</link><guid>http://thebigcatupstairs.tumblr.com/post/33631905977</guid><pubDate>Mon, 15 Oct 2012 04:42:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Video</title><description>&lt;iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/vl9-VQfjMQE?wmode=transparent&amp;autohide=1&amp;egm=0&amp;hd=1&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://thebigcatupstairs.tumblr.com/post/31207182704</link><guid>http://thebigcatupstairs.tumblr.com/post/31207182704</guid><pubDate>Sun, 09 Sep 2012 13:06:57 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Video</title><description>&lt;iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Arzzmy1hdOY?wmode=transparent&amp;autohide=1&amp;egm=0&amp;hd=1&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://thebigcatupstairs.tumblr.com/post/22370232949</link><guid>http://thebigcatupstairs.tumblr.com/post/22370232949</guid><pubDate>Fri, 04 May 2012 01:17:45 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Video</title><description>&lt;iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/8RtzWgL34II?wmode=transparent&amp;autohide=1&amp;egm=0&amp;hd=1&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://thebigcatupstairs.tumblr.com/post/22370174459</link><guid>http://thebigcatupstairs.tumblr.com/post/22370174459</guid><pubDate>Fri, 04 May 2012 01:16:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m37pa00K5C1r7h14bo1_500.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://thebigcatupstairs.tumblr.com/post/22008950547</link><guid>http://thebigcatupstairs.tumblr.com/post/22008950547</guid><pubDate>Sat, 28 Apr 2012 19:01:12 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Thai Iced Tea: Attempt #1.</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m35crcHjMA1r7h14bo1_500.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thai Iced Tea: Attempt #1.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://thebigcatupstairs.tumblr.com/post/21917389010</link><guid>http://thebigcatupstairs.tumblr.com/post/21917389010</guid><pubDate>Fri, 27 Apr 2012 12:35:36 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Found this on junk day.
