My life experiences, in short

I’m sorry I haven’t been keeping up lately.. I’ve had a little trouble with my password. But I’m back. I know you all are glad to hear that! Sort of. Anyway, I’ve started classes at Quincy College, and so far, nothing troubling to look forward to. I recently completed the first of five assignments for my Psychology class. It was not too hard, and it took me a while, but I now have a rough draft to hand in to the teacher before it’s actually due. Always a good habit to get into. If nothing else, the one thing I have learned throughout high school, is that rough drafts do nothing but help you. Too bad I didn’t think of that last semester.. My Philosophy class may be a little more difficult, considering we only have two tests the entire semester. I’ll just have to prepare myself adequately for them. No worries so far.

Recently, I’ve begun reading a book called “The Know-It-All” by AJ Jacobs. I recommend this book to anyone who may or may not lack irrelevant knowledge, but appreciates some good sarcasm. Jacobs attempts to read the entire encyclopedia (44 million words, by the way), in order to become the smartest man. I admire his determination, but can honestly say that I have never, and most likely will never, have the urge to take this daunting task upon myself. So I figured his book would be good enough. It is filled with sarcasm, leaving no page unturned without at least a quick laugh.

Well, in case you all were wondering, I’ve begun thinking about stand-up comedy. Now, after you’ve all made your preliminary judgements, hear me out. Because there are so few jobs out there, and I tend to have quite the sense of humor when I want to, I feel like stand-up could pan out for me. Not because I want to find a career in going on stage and making fun of the people I love, but mainly because I feel they provide adequate humor to get at least one routine out of. I’m not talking about Comedy Central-worthy stuff here, I’m just thinking small comedy clubs and such. Still, this is only in the back of my mind, considering I’m having so much trouble finding a job myself.
