Looking for Green, MOSSGREEN ; in Mossdreams.
So the author John Green? He does these bits on history on his YouTube channel, he talks about contemporary world history and the US history in general, doing these little segments for like ten-fifteen minutes, basically covering all the important points, dolloping all the essentials into one quick go, it's all rather charming, he charmed me for sure.
I was skeptical as all hell about this until my best friend forever and ever, (I do cherish her) nudged me in Green's direction, until she had me looking for Green (get it?). Green in these short videos is so witty, charming, and funny, but above all he seems to know what he is talking about. He is very knowledgeable about the subjects he teaches on his channel and make no mistake, he is teaching, doing rather a good job of it, I'd say. I like the method of his madness. I admire it and him as a result.
He gets everything almost right. Green is not infallible but his take on things is one of few completely unbiased ones I have ever come across. He has an understanding of how things were and are and maybe should be, that's above average. So if you want to watch something entertaining and educational, but something that fits in today's ADD world then his YouTube channel is for you. In fact, everyone should watch his Crash Course videos. Way better than whatever it is that kids watch on YouTube these days. Who knows maybe you'll end up learning a thing or two from his history lessons?
I know I did.
Keep doing your thing, Mr. Green.
So basically my best friend did what all those flailing fangirls couldn't do; make me like John Green.
Thank you Kin Bear, just don't maul me like Leo's bear mauled him. Sorry bad but timely bear joke. Haha?
Anyway, go watch John Green's Crash Course videos. And his enthusiasm for Force Awakens was so infatuating even though I still dislike the movie.
