Ridiculous of me?

Ridiculous of me?

A few months ago, I came up with the absurd idea that I could become famous in a year.

Absurd is so self-deprecating, though.

People try to crash into the entertainment business for so many reasons. Would anyone believe that mine was selfless? Well, as selfless as a human can possibly get, which probably isn't much. They say that thing, right? That there's no such thing as true altruism.

I've been funny for as long as I can remember. I've had other, more important qualities downplayed because of my comedic stylings. My intelligence, my maturity, my abhorring of superficiality. It was something I eventually came to accept, around the time that I was voted "Class Clown" halfway through my senior year of high school.

There's a certain passion I have for drawing attention to myself for the sake of others. A secret goal to see how many smiles I can get, how many days I can better. Some get their high from alcohol - I get mine from laughter.

It's just one faucet. An important one. Not the most important, but an important one.

So now I just wait. Wait for my chance to change the world in my own little way. A chance to perhaps show what can really be done when the spotlight is shown on a person. Nothing that involves leaked inappropriate pictures or uncalled comments. Something that can actually better this world.

I believe if one were to youtube "The Beth and Chanelle Show", I would show up. Just an attempt to do something...
