Multiple turning points as Barack Obama elected president

November 5, 2008 by vongsundara 

Yesterday was a huge turning point for the United States, as Barack Obama was elected President. I’m also hoping for yesterday to be a turning point in my comedy career as well.

I went down to the Rivoli yesterday to congratulate Zoe Randall on her final show as producer after 12 years. It was the first comedy show I’ve been to in many, many months. I’m hoping that yesterday will be the catalyst for me to turn around my career with some much needed hard work and focus.

I am determined to make it out to at least one comedy show a week from now until the end of the year. This goal used to be fairly easy for me, as I was performing an average of three shows a week. Now it seems like making it out to one show a week is difficult. I definitely have to turn this ship around and quickly too.

I’m really happy about the launch of this website and the traffic it has been generating. My past motivations on stage were closely tied to my success in the online world, and I am hoping for history to repeat itself.
