The Lizzie Bennet Diaries (2012)

Just introducing myself as part of a class project. We're in grad school together. Charlotte's the mastermind behind the camera, she wanted me to talk about my life, which, yeah, sounds tremendously exciting right? But we'll do our best to be at least moderately entertaining. Also, in the future, I will try to get Charlotte out from behind her pipe. So in this first video, you meet me, my friend Charlotte Lu, and my sister Lydia (accidentally). And I introduce you to a parody of my mom as well, who, hopefully, you will never meet.

Introducing my sisters...I have two. Lydia, who...is Lydia. And Jane, who works her butt off for her family and never thinks of herself. Also, you may have noticed she's gorgeous.

So that was an amazing first week! I am shocked that so many people find my life even a tiny bit interesting. So Episode 3!!! Inspired by Reggie on Facebook, I made this video about my parents so you can get to know them a little more. - But actually showing them? Well that would require me telling them that I'm doing this... so that's going to be a "no". Or at least a "not yet".

The thought of Bing Lee dominates my mother's life. It's all she talks about. So through everything my crazily lovable mother, the 2.5 WPF club, and my out of control baby sister, you lovely people get to learn all about Bing Lee.

So...this weekend was interesting. The wedding was lovely, barring some extremely unfortunate events that I will not get into right now. But Bing and Jane did, like, I mean, really hit it off, so Mom is unsurprisingly a 50 gallon barrel of pleased. Today though, I just wanted to grill Jane on the evening's events. Also, I have to admit that Bing is actually really nice. And Jane didn't even make me write that.

You were all quite specific that you wanted me to talk more about meeting Mr. Darcy, so today, I give you half the story. Boring, stuffy, and rude, I really don't get how Bing and him are friends. Regardless, watch Lydia and I reenact the events of the Gibson wedding for you. And then, next week, I'll give you the scoop on the rest of the evening.

After this I'm done talking about the Gibson Wedding. I really didn't want to talk about this, but it's been bugging me. Like really bugging me. Like can't study and all my projects suck bugging me. So here it is, the Most awkward dance ever with Darcy. - oh and I miss Charlotte, she should be back this week.

Yay Charlotte is back. I hope she never leaves again. Watch as she and I catch up. Also she apparently told something to my mother that didn't exactly thrill me, but hey it's Charlotte and I love her. Sorry this video is a little shorter but we do have the special Q&A video this Saturday! Watch out for that!

As my mother has been pushing for the day that her three single daughters are "properly" wed, I'd like to point out in this video that it's perfectly okay (and usually better) that you wait and find the right person.

So I got some pictures of some cats playing with Chinchillas. I was going to spend today talking about adorableness and not Bing, but then Jane showed up and, well...

Despite the double barreled presences of both Lydia and My Mother, dinner at Bing Lee's wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. Probably because that Bing is 1. actually pretty cool and 2. very much into my sister.

In this video my dearest sister Jane gives her opinions on some of the people I've "talked" about on in video diaries. Our parents, Bing Lee, and even William Darcy. Watch and enjoy, I know I did.

Mr. Bing Lee and Caroline are coming over for dinner and I try "live video blogging" the evening. Things start out great at first but it goes a little nutty when Mom starts freaking out and Lydia tries to take over everything.

I made this video the morning after the last video. I have a some fun at Lydia's expense and well, she has some fun with me. We're sisters, what do you expect?

Charlotte Lu here, while Lizzie spent the weekend slaving away in the campus library, I recruited Jane to give a slightly different perspective to the events last week.

So I appreciate Charlotte filling in but wow, talk about creative leaps! - Oh Charlotte, always dramatizing. Anyway, I'm back and so is Charlotte. In this video we have a discussion of life and stuff. Enjoy.

So it's the last few weeks of the semester and here comes swim week, or as I like to call it "Lydia goes crazy". And if you think that was fun, just wait til you see the aftermath video.

So after going with Lydia to Carter's the night before and making sure she didn't get into "too much trouble", I discovered a pleasant surprise. In this video, watch Jane and I talk about douchebags and gentlemen.

So it turns out my mom had a plan for all those green beans in cranberry sauce. Not just a plan to turn something that sounds disgusting into something truly disgusting, but a plan to use it to push Bing and Jane together. I how you really enjoy watching this video because I really didn't enjoy a certain part of it.

So Charlotte and I are slammed with finals and well there's Lydia and she had some things to say...

I'm back and so is Charlotte! Our semester is over and though we started this as a school project we are keeping the video diaries going!

So Bing Lee's throwing a party and invited everyone, which sounds like a great time for anyone not named Lizzie Bennet. I do my best to try to avoid it but it's hard to resist someone like Jane.

It's the day after the crazy party at Bing Lee's and Jane didn't come home with us. Watch Charlotte and I discuss the party and the future of Jane and Bing before Lydia comes in and does something shocking.

Jane's back and Mom isn't happy. She's up to something, I can feel it. Anyway, Charlotte and I discuss going to Vidcon and Lydia barges in with a surprise!

So we went to Vidcon! Here's the first video we shot. It was supposed to be really quick but I ran into my old 'acquaintance' Ricky Collins.

I knew Mom was up to something. Leave it up to her to come up with a plan to drastically change our lives even while we're still having fun at Vidcon.

So this is new, first video at Netherfield, new room, new house, and new people. Watch as Jane and I try, and immediately fail, at keeping the video diaries underwraps.

So I asked Jane to record a message to Charlotte as part of documenting our stay here at Netherfield and guess who popped up in. Bing Lee himself! Those two really are adorable.

So in this video I struggle with the ethics of putting Bing in these videos under "grey" pretenses. Luckily Caroline was there to help me out with this.

I'm hoping to go home today. Watch as Caroline and I go through some fun game show antics before I get the news.

So I figured out what William Darcy is good for. Also see what happens when Bing Lee plans a wine tasting event while trying to cram us all into one car.

Watch as Caroline and I discuss how Darcy's pompousness hits a new level of doucheyness.

The always sweet Jane returns and we talk about Darcy and his supposed attempts at being nice and genuine.

So we've been here a month. I'm sure we're wearing out our welcome and we just need to go home.

Watch as Charlotte, Jane, Lydia, and I are all back together!

We knew it was coming and here he is. "Mr." Ricky Collins is back.

What do you do when Lydia and Mr. Ricky Collins keep bugging you for stuff? Let them bug each other.

Exciting news! George Wickham's been texting. His witty conversations leads Jane and I to compare his virtual conversations to Ricky Collins' actual ones.

So Mr. Ricky Collins finally revealed what he was in town for.

So my mom wasn't too thrilled with me rejecting Ricky Collins' partnership proposal.

Charlotte and Collins have a chat.

Up all night editing this one. Just watch it.

First post-Charlotte video. I'm still getting a hang of this editing thing. Really thankful for my super supportive sisters, though.

Shot this a few days ago after going to Carter's. It was too good to not do a video about the Darcy/Wickham incident. I will find out the truth!

I did it, I found the truth about Darcy via the handsome and charming George Wickham.

It's Bing Lee's birthday party this weekend and everyone is invited. So George, Jane and I are drawing up a plan!

Bing Lee's birthday party was this weekend and there's been a lot of weirdness going on.

Jane wanted me to post this whole video.

Everyone seems to be leaving, first Charlotte and now Jane. What's going on around here?

Lydia says I need cheering up.

I meet up with Charlotte again at her fancy new offices.

Trying to figure out how I'm gonna deal with this school thing. I think Charlotte may have given me the answer.

Ricky Collins prepares me for dinner with Catherine De Bourgh.

Summary of my recent dinner with Catherine De Bourgh. It was... interesting.

While Charlotte is away I take some time to play around in the office.

Everyone meet Fitz. Another odd example of Darcy being surrounded by pleasant people.

Another weekend at the office. I had an unexpected visitor and it weirded everyone out.

Fitz comes by again and helps me send Jane a care package.

After hearing about what Darcy, Halloween Staff Spirit with Collins and Collins is the last thing I want to do.

I wasn't sure about showing you, but here it is.

Charlotte catches up and Darcy comes back.

I try to update you on everything else in my life and Charlotte won't have it.

Caroline is in town.

Caroline, Charlotte, and I face off.

Mr. Collins is back and wants to keep us over Thanksgiving break.

Charlotte and I head home for Thanksgiving!

It's good to be home with everyone.

Charlotte gets me to reveal some things.

Lydia takes over for episode 69!

Jane and I talk about her new and changed life.

My dad begins his train extravaganza. Lydia plans a party.

So it was Lydia's birthday and someone stops by.

I give Lydia her birthday present. It doesn't go quite as planned.

Lydia and I... well fine.

Merry Christmas everyone!

One more video before the new year and then off to my next company shadowing.

Welcome to my first day at Pemberley Digital and it is interesting.

I try to head to dinner, Gigi stops me.

Well look who dropped into the Pemberley offices.

Darcy and I have a chat.

Gigi comes by and I get to confront Bing.

Gigi comes by for a serious discussion.

I interview Darcy.

Just no.

What did you do, Lydia?

Jane comes home.

Sometimes, you need to listen.

We will be.

A little insomnia.

Just what we needed around here. Sorta.

Yay for Jane!

Saying bye to Jane.

Charlotte comes to visit.

Lydia gives me some key info.

So this was a surprise.

I reflect on things.

Look who stops by.

Okay yeah.

The talk.

Thank you.
