Default Won Stand-Up Comedy Contest Tonight

I saw that this was a forum for pleasurable experiences, so I figured I would share the fact I won a stand-up comedy contest with over 30 comedians performing. I won countless gift certificates and I get to emcee at the club for a week. It was my second time doing stand-up in a real comedy club and I feel that I did real well and I am so grateful for the experience and the experiences to come. Life is all about following your dreams, because if you don't, what's the point? Anyway, just thought I would share one of my pleasurable experiences. Thank you.

Good for you Andrew!

From these forums it's hard to tell that comedy was one of your aspirations. Do you plan on pursuing it further?

Congrats! Best of luck in your stand-up career... ;-)

I did a course in stand-up comedy once, with a gig at the end in front of 250 people. It was the scariest experience of my life, but one of the most fulfilling and rewarding too, as I'm sure Andrew will vouch for. As a personal development experience, I learned so much about myself, improved my confidence, my public speaking ability, met all sorts of interesting people, improved my writing ability (due to joke writing); the list goes on. Much like in Fight Club, after doing a stand-up gig, the volume on the rest of your life is turned down. Giving a presentation in class is nothing on the fear-scale now!

I recommend it to anyone if you fancy a challenge, and a great personal growth experience. Andrew, keep us informed of how you get on!
