Okay, hi guys! My name's Shannon and... it's been a minute

since I did a Q&A, so that's what we're here to do!

A very candid Q&A

So this Q&A is a little different than other Q&As I've done because

I asked you guys to ask me questions through the Candid App and now im gonna answer them

That's how the Q&As always work. That part is pretty...pretty normal

"Have you settled into your new house, yet?"

If you guys didn't know, I just moved to a new apartment

and it is in LA

I don't know why some people thought I moved somewhere else, but

I didn't, I live in LA

But am I settled in yet?

No, I would say

Not yet

But I'm working on it!

"Can you put your head behind your head?"

I don't

What does that mean?

"One word to describe Trump"?

*Beep*

"Your favorite part of your body?"

I don't know why, I just thought this was a cute question

'cause I actually read it and then had to think of an answer, 'cause I didn't have one off the top of my head, but

it's such a body positive kind of question, and I was like

"What do I like about myself?"

Probably these huge...

Feet

I hate myself

It's so funny that I'm embarrassed to say something I like about myself right now

like I feel you're not allowed to say that

which is so wrong! I'm allowed to say something I like about myself

I like my stomach. I think it's...I like my tummy

That's my answer

And I'm allowed to say it!

"Are you and Vanessa best friends or more?"

Way more

We're best, best friends

We're best, best, best, best, best friends

Vanessa Webster, if you're watching this I love you, man

"The goal is to attend a party with Shannon, dance hard until we are forced to stop and win her over with my charm. Yes"

Unfortunately, I think

if I were to be dancing, I'd be forced to stop pretty fucking fast

Someone would see it and say

"Please, please don't. Please, please...don't"

"I'm begging you. Please don't"

That would be me dancing at a party

So I think we need to come up with a different plan for you to win me over

"Did you actually write the letter 3456 times?"

If you guys haven't seen I posted a video a few weeks ago called "A letter to you"

which was a letter to my younger self but also a letter to you guys

And in it I said that I wrote it...this was like 3456 version of it

I didn't write 3456 but

I did write close to that

I wrote so many different versions and I couldn't get it to be exactly what I wanted it to be

Thank God for all my friends who helped me look at it and like rewrite it over and over

But the *unintelligible noises*

question you probably all wanna know the answer to

"How do you feel about Cam moving on?"

Genuinely

I am so happy for Cammie

so, so happy

I couldn't wish more good things for her

including love

like, obviously yes, I'm so happy for her

"What is a funny fact that you used to do as a child?"

They always said that I had the Beveridge scowl

which you guys always mention how freaking active my eyebrows are which I know

They have a mind of their own

Literally, I don't think to move them

They are just doing that

But when I was really little like a baby I used to always be like this

Or like this

Beveridge scowl

This is a question I got a lot

"Going forward, what would you like to be the purpose or focus of your youtube cahnnel?"

I'm not a hundred percent sure

what all this channel will be

All I know is I'm gonna be making the content that is on my mind

So...yeah, my last 2 videos were kind of LGBT related because

I've been going through things in my own life with friends and stuff

and I've seen them struggle with things, so that was on my mind a lot

so that's the videos I was making

and it was what you guys were talking about

This channel...I just want it to be

a mix of everything

I'm excited to see what it becomes, it's like...

I think it's kind of fun. None of us know

Did you hear my voice quiver?

Is it fun or is it scary? Is it fun or is it scary?

It's fun!

Right?

Another very candid question

which I don't think I've ever really said anything about this too much before, so

we're gonna do it

"Have you ever felt suicidal? How did you overcome thouse thoughts?"

Have I ever felt suicidal? I...

I'm nervous to even talk about this

I've never genuinely contemplated suicide

however

Did I have suicidal thoughts?

And like...

Was that something that has ever crossed my mind? Yes

It did, when I was younger

It did

But it was always something I knew that I wouldn't do, but it did cross my mind

That's heavy

but honest

How did I work on those thoughts?

I just...one day

dediced that my life was worth living

and I wasn't gonna let other people's ideas of what...

life should be keep me from my happiness and...

Yeah, I don't know, I don't know. I was just like

I think one day I actually

made this deal with God, and I prayed and I was like

I said something along the lines of if...

"if this life isn't the life that you want me to live then like...

you're gonna need to end it because I'm not gonna end my own life"

And then...

the next day I woke up and I was like "Okay, I'm not thinking about that anymore"

And I got over it

I just...I don't know

My life was worth living

I had to make that decision for myself, and I did. And then...

I was fine, I was done

That's...

That's a lot to tell ya!

How candid of me!

Genuinely, how are you?

That's such a nice question

Genuinely, I'm wonderful

I'm doing really well

I'm getting my life kind of more...

back on track

A more routine going on

You might've seen on Twitter I said I'm gonna be posting weekly again, so

I'm just like adjusting to

my new life, which is very fun, and nice, and good, and it's going well

and, yeah, I'm excited for you guys to see

what's to come

I'm also excited to see it myself

Ok, guys, that's the end of this Q&A

Thank you so much for asking me questions over on Candid and

like Candid, gives you a place to speak freely and

pay attention, and I'm gonna be tweeting and letting you guys know who won the camera
