Hi, I'm Hannah (: and this is my story.

I remember when I was looking on the homescreen of Youtube. A very
strange video seemed to beckon me to watch. It was one of the Food
Battles. The video was just uploaded, I believe. Little did I know I
was going to die of laughter. I didn't think too much about it at that
point and decided to go to sleep because it was fairly late at night
when I watched it.

The next day, I went on to watch the video again. Then, I clicked on
the suggested video of the Pokemon Theme Song and I thought that was
the greatest thing in the world. At school, no one really was into it,
but I watched it anyways.

Fast forward about a year and a half. In October of 2011, I was
already a huge fan by then. I was always talking about them with my
friends (because they had gotten popular by then).

Then, my family found out my aunt died. We were actually close, but I
felt so guilty. The last time I talked to her, I told her she would
never be my aunt and that I hated her. This was probably one of the
worst times of my life. The friends I had weren't trying to even help
me deal with her death. At that point, I got so sick of everything.
Nothing was going well. My grades went down. I lost friend. I was
almost ready to just give up.

But before I did something stupid, I looked online just to see if
there was truly something to stick around for. Right on my homepage
for my gmail/ Youtube account was an Ian Is Bored. I watched the video
and laughed through the tears, feeling better from Ian and Anthony's
jokes and laughter. I went to sleep, holding on for one more day.

I haven't even thought about hurting myself since then.

Smosh literally saved me from myself, and I am so thankful for them
because I wouldnt be here, typing this. They changed my life.
