My 24th Birthday is comming up next week and as usual I spend the weekend before it reflecting on the year that has passed. Sadly 2011/2012 have not been a good year, it's been the year where I lost my identity. To explain this I guess I have to go back a bit, on valentines day 2003 my father was watching a panel show called time-out in bed when he suddenly fell over and couldn't get up. That was the last time I saw him alive, I was 14 years old and I was supposed to start the Swedish version of high school that fall. This led to a horrendous academic time and not only were I held back a year, I also left without finishing it. I don't remember much about my 15th to 19th year simply because my day was mostly sleeping, trying to keep my family together and trying to catch up with whatever I missed in school. During this time I held on to one thing and one thing only, it was the only thing that kept me going and kept me alive. ”I am not an idiot”.

Nobody failed high school other than complete morons and criminals, that was what I was told over and over agian, and I wasn't a criminal. When I was 19 I finally got my own apartment and my family was slowly repairing itself, moving out was probably a life saving move for me. So with that in mind I set out to get into university, that was the only thing I cared about and from there that was the road I was. I hade 1 and a half year left before I could get grades that I could apply to uni with and I set out knowing that I wanted to do this properly. In the end I had a 19.2 out of 20 average, so most university courses were open to me and I got in. But at that moment something died. I had done what I set out to do, my life goal for the last 4 or 5 years had come true and it left a large void.

I tried to fill it with what I had always dreamed of doing before my life collapsed. I wanted to entertain people, I am happy when I am around happy, laughing people and if I could be part of the source that made people happy or at least entertained that would be amazing. So my 23rd year on this planet was spent comming to probably worse conclusion I've ever had to draw.

I am horrendously unfunny. I can't write texts to entertain, I can't make jokes, I can't be a driving force for entertainment, in short I'm unable to make others laugh or heck even smile. If I try to be funny I'm annoying, if I don't try I am boring. The best I can hope for is a ”Meh”. It might sound wierd but it was such a truth in my life, I fix the whole university thing and then move on to what I was supposed to do. It was engrained into my life since I was 5 years old that I was put on this planet to help others be happy. So moving towards my 24th birthday I have no idea what to do with my life, I no longer have any goals or any reason to move forward. I am sure that is the case for alot of people, but my life was put on hold for about 5 years so I guess everything happens 5 years later for me than they do for most people.

There is no real point to this blog other than to write down the disjointed things I think about and get them out of my head.

I'd recommend just trying out some jobs and see what you like.

Maybe start slow with some volunteering or part time jobs here and there.

Discover what you're into.

Most of all gl &hf!

Maybe you are funny in different ways than you think..

Not everyone is a stand up comedian. Maybe you are a comic artist who rights funny comics with silly punchlines? Maybe you entertain people by funny sounds in a cartoon? Maybe you're really a mime who doesn't speak? Maybe a clown?

Who the hell knows, but you!

Entertainment comes in many forms. Maybe funny isn't the entertainment you will give either. Drama is entertainment. Action films are entertainment. Who knows, maybe you will have to find a menial job to find your outlet for creativity.

This I do understand. I never saw myself as the haha funny guy, I guess that was a bad way of putting it. I was born with two left hands but writing has always been the thing I thought I would do the most. I'd love to be an author aimed at the younger demographic, but when I was 15 I could write out 50 page stories that were decent and that I thought was clearly the most brilliant work ever created, now it's as if I get 2 pages in and just can't force myself to go further because it's god awful. No matter what I do it never matches what I had in my head to begin with and that is frustrating.
