Transcript

Sitting on the floor behind me is every single book that I own. So we're going to count them all today to see where I'm sitting and how many more books I need to get in order to have an official library. Okay, you have it here folks. I have 146 books in my personal collection. To have an official library, you have to have at least a thousand books. And I'm at 146. So that leaves me with 854 books to go. But this is something that I'm going to be working on throughout my entire life. I've already been working on this since I was 13 years old and I'm so proud of the collection I have. And now it is time to organize every single one of these where I have a video, redecorating and reorganizing my three books.
