So, we just hit 50k subscribers!
You guessed right, the excitement is palpable!
Two years ago, I started this channel from a corner of my living room. It was a dream come true.
Zero subscribers.
My first video was Summer in London and to be totally honest, I had no idea what I had just started.
Youtube was a space where viewers were in a constant search for drama and kerfuffle and gossip. And I was here making videos about my Chanel bags. Haha!
I was quickly written off. A cadre of my now former friends said I was a spoilt housewife looking for an outlet to show my family wealth.
Such bitterness.
At some point, one of them who is still in the trenches as we speak said I was Trash. We shall be talking about that in a different post.
From my first video, I soldiered on, like a Haitian typhoon. Undeterred.
And along the way it has been bittersweet. Like a properly whipped Cinquecento.
And in those two short years I have seen my name dragged in the muck on some third-rate gossip low-budget websites.
Take it a notch higher this year, upstarts.
In those two years I have won a handful of awards and graced some of the biggest papers in town.
In those two years I have learnt a great deal and gotten better at it. New stuff is coming soon. I promise.
Although I’m still far from what I dream of becoming, I have made tremendous progress in my own right.
I’m sure there are guys who began the same time I did and have clocked 100k plus subscribers.
Atta boys and girls!
We are treading different waters.
A special thanks to the growing family. From here it can only get bigger and better.
I appreciate the criticism, the bile, the hate and the nonchalance.
After all, would there be diamonds without the heat and the pressure?
P.S
I recently lost my Instagram account so if you have been following me for whatever reason, let’s reconnect at Officialsonalkotakmaherali

Love and lite.
