welcome everyone Adam the woo here today
0:20
we are saying
0:21
goodbye to
0:24
Frankie it's so
0:26
hard to say goodbye to
0:31
Frankenstein it's my second channel
0:34
daily Vlog
0:35
Channel getting rid of stuff and
0:38
downsizing is kind of hard it's the
0:43
daily woo I created a photo album over
0:46
on Facebook or some of the bigger stuff
0:48
I'm not going to be selling on eBay
0:49
Frankenstein was one of those items and
0:51
someone is going to be picking that up
0:53
today a local to Orange County
0:55
California all the furniture the couches
0:57
things like that will not be on eBay but
1:00
I still have some stuff on eBay I'm
1:01
gonna be peppering in all kind of stuff
1:03
on eBay including one of my two
1:07
styrofoam Heads This is on eBay
1:10
currently for another day or two going
1:12
to keep this one but this one is going
1:15
to the highest bidder to help fuel the
1:29
woo I've had a few people ask why are
1:29
you getting rid of all your stuff well
1:30
the reason is I am going to be moving
1:33
out of California and taking my personal
1:36
items the stuff that is vitally
1:38
important sentimental things to my
1:41
sisters in Indiana and storing them
1:43
there and then I'm hitting the road and
1:45
traveling full time granted I could keep
1:48
a lot more than I am going to be keeping
1:51
but to clear my mind and to go to the
1:55
next wave the next step of the progress
1:58
of hitting back on the road
2:00
stuff stresses me out having too much
2:03
stuff really clogs my brain it's very
2:07
difficult to explain that but the less I
2:09
have unless it is something that is
2:11
something that someone has given to me a
2:13
personal item something I've had since
2:14
childhood you know something like that I
2:17
will keep but everything else I want to
2:19
Omit from my life and start basically
2:21
from scratch that way I don't have a lot
2:24
of baggage when I'm traveling that's the
2:26
reason I'm getting rid of so much of my
2:29
stuff and the crunch time is on the time
2:32
is near because in just over a month 5
2:36
weeks or so I will be departing
2:39
California and the open road
2:43
calls let me assure you I am very very
2:45
excited I got some big
2:52
plans it's good to have you along in
2:52
case you're wondering I'm not sponsored
2:53
by Ford the steering wheel cover that
2:55
I'm always showing as I'm driving around
2:57
in my van I recently put on someone sent
3:00
me that in a mail Vlog because they did
3:02
not like the disgusting nature of the
3:04
deteriorating steering wheel I paid cash
3:06
for that van I paid
3:08
$440 a month for 5 years on that van my
3:12
interest rate was astronomical I didn't
3:14
have good credit at that time I worked
3:17
hard for that van Ford if you're
3:19
listening I would love a sponsorship but
3:21
Ford has never given me a nickel the
3:23
Main Place Mall I believe there was a
3:26
Jean Claude vanam film shot in here does
3:31
anyone know the name of the movie filmed
3:34
Behind These glass doors they're looking
3:38
for Jean CLA vanam I'm supposed to meet
3:40
the guy that's picking up the
3:41
Frankenstein at Starbucks right here in
3:43
the Main Place Mall I can't find him
3:46
though I just realized the blame is on
3:48
me because I told him to meet me at the
3:50
Barnes & Noble across the street from
3:52
the mall not in the mall itself I don't
3:54
know what's going on with my head I'm
3:56
not even thinking coherently I can't
3:58
even meet someone in the correct
4:00
location I told them to meet
4:03
me I found him there he
4:06
is what's up man is this a daily woo it
4:11
is I was going to meet I thought I was
4:14
meeting you over there and then I reread
4:15
the email and I told you I would meet
4:17
you here so I was waiting over there but
4:20
it was my mistake so all right my
4:21
apology so explain to me what you
4:24

5:39
school video camera that's something I
5:41
had in like early 1990 it's right here
5:45

5:48
restaurant's wall that's like a Hu
5:50
Houser
6:00
camera got to pick up some something
6:00

Walmart if you so choose you could clean
6:04
yourself with one of the Teenage Mutant
6:06
Ninja
6:08
Turtles I'll just leave that there some
6:11
would look at this as a child's garden
6:13
tool I look at this as a really colorful
6:16
awesome gargantuan back scratcher this
6:19
is the most popular item you will ever
6:21
find at a garage sale I'm not even
6:23
kidding any garage sale connoisseurs and
6:26
afficianados know exactly what I'm
6:28
talking about you see these at virtually
6:31
every garage sale I'm on the hunt for
6:34
some safety pens but there looks to be a
6:37
lot of different types of safety pens
6:39
there's this huge bag called a basting
6:43
pen I don't know what the difference
6:45
between that and a normal safety pen is
6:48
here's a smaller package of them and
6:51
then up here there's some smaller ones
6:52
some curved ones curved curved here's
6:57
some little teeny safety pens
7:00
so many choices look at these little
7:03

8:37
success totally punk rock look at those
8:40
safety pin that's about as punk rock as
8:43
you can get with a
8:45
patch looks cool I want to talk a little
8:48
bit about doing something that you don't
8:51
have to do that is not required of you
8:53
to do that is almost unnecessary for you
8:58
to do to go about your life to go about
9:00
your daily existence and I bring this up
9:04
because when I'm leaving California in
9:07
just over a month as I hit the road I'm
9:11
putting a lot of things behind me I'm
9:13
getting rid of all of my stuff I'm
9:14
getting rid of the home that I've had
9:17
for the last year and a half in Southern
9:19
California a place that I thought at one
9:23
time upon arrival here was going to be
9:27
my future home my future Homestead is a
9:30
place I was going to plant
9:32
roots and since that didn't really go
9:35
according to plan I have decided to
9:38
alter that course of my
9:41
life and it's not something I have to do
9:45
I could stay here I could stay renting
9:48
the house I'm in I could stay doing the
9:52
same type of daily
9:54
activities I don't have to do what I'm
9:57
doing it's not a requirement it is not
10:01
something that is being forced upon me
10:03
due to circumstances that is making me
10:06
do this and making me want to change
10:11
things it's because I want to do it it's
10:13
because it's something I am strongly
10:16
convinced that needs to be done
10:20
not a Twist that was thrown my way a
10:24
falling on hard times I guess you could
10:27
say type of aspect and this is the
10:31
second time in my life I have made this
10:34
decision this is the second time the
10:36
first time was about 5 years ago when I
10:39
had an apartment in St Cloud Florida I
10:41
sold everything I owned down to a bag or
10:45
two of clothes my camera equipment and
10:48
stuff like that I had it in the back of
10:49
the van and I'm doing that again and
10:53
same could be said for version 1.0 of
10:57
this experiment 5 years ago I was
10:59
working a job I was paying my bills
11:03
everything was hunky
11:04
dory that's even a word but I felt I
11:08
needed to do more I
11:11
felt something else needed to happen and
11:14
because I made that change my life
11:18
completely did a 180 and I have
11:20
experienced so much stuff over the last
11:23
5 years and because I'm making this
11:25
decision coming up or the decision's
11:28
made but because because the results
11:30
will happen very soon when I leave
11:32
California and hit the open
11:34
road I'm going to experience way more
11:37
than I have just even in the Last 5
11:39
Years the doors are now
11:43
opening and the point I want to bring up
11:45
is I don't have to leave I don't have to
11:48
go anywhere I don't have to do what I am
11:51
doing and I guess what I'm trying to say
11:54
is there are people who do quote unquote
11:58
Wild and crazy things because they have
12:02
to they are forced to they do not have
12:05
any other options but I think that there
12:08
is something inside the brain that when
12:11
you make a decision to alter your course
12:15
when you do not have to alter your
12:17
course there's something in your
12:20
brain gosh what's the word for it
12:23
that makes it all work out
12:26
that it seems like if you make that
12:29
decis de ision it always turns out right
12:33
now you will have some
12:34
difficulties but in the long run it
12:37
usually works out and I speak from
12:41
experience I don't know if I really put
12:43
the point across the way I'm trying and
12:46
what I'm feeling but I just wanted to
12:48
express those thoughts as I wind down
12:52
