An Original Introduction

After the final day of College Literature I was left a changed man, no longer a meager twerp existing as a footnote in society was I as Yoda would say. As I enter my first days of summer as a new man I began to think about how I interacted in the world, what was I good for? My quest to search for the answer to this question had begun; with my valiant steed I went out to conquer The Beast.

What looked like a simple task turned out to be a time of struggle with few triumphs, but to succeed in my goal of self understanding I was forced to continue on. I often found my self running in circles coming upon the same ideas that I started with, never building meaning. I felt as Bartleby  the Scrivener must have felt in the dead letter office, what I needed was to become unstuck in time and see what my future held.

So in my desperation for understanding I took a nap on the toilet, the two places I do my best thinking. As I sat upon my throne I fought for everything that I was worth to release this growing pressure from the pit of my stomach. I fought so hard that soon exhaustion came over me and I had to rest; sleep soon won over and my journey through space and time began.

The results of my travels reveled to me two things: one, I am a very heavy sleeper when I am on the toilet and two, Kurt Vonnegut was right about human involvement in the end of the world...So in the end I learned very little about my purpose on my expedition. So what is my purpose?

Well I like fire,

and space is really cool,

not to mention aliens,

and my very favorite, building stuff!!

So if I put all of this together...

I end up in star wars training with the Jedi and blasting away at the Sith Lords battle fleet outside the death star orbiting the Ewok's home planet!!! I don't think life could get much better for me.
