January 2, 6:15 AM

A sound that could pierce the heavens echoed thought out my room. In a small fit of rage I mustered all the remaining energy stored within my body and struck the clock with all my might. The sound ceased and once again I could return to REM sleep, until I realized that a well placed thumb tack on the snooze button of my alarm clock was lodged in my palm. The hangover must have clouded my mind, I had placed it there in hopes that if there was a chance I was going to sleep in it would wake me up, not maim me. The new year was already looking bright for me.

One might wonder why I’ve backtracked so far on my first post, the first episode never has any flashbacks, but there is some method to my madness. One of my new years resolutions was I was going to seek a thing called “happiness”. I have come to hate my job, or career however you wish to see it, and in general things are not good. So waking up in the morning with a slight hangover, a thumbtack in my palm, and the fact I had to go to work were not helping. I needed a change.

So that is what this blog is all about, change. I am going to quit my job in a few weeks and return to college for another degree, so you can think of it as a journey if you will. Armed with nothing but the desire to work hard and social awkwardness I am going to try and take on the world once again, this time do things my way. This is my story.
