Every Cool Kid...

spends their Saturday nights at home blogging.

Micheal Cera and I were chilling the other day having some awkward conversation like every good star-normalguy relationship needs. After a few minutes of gazing into his eyes I realized it was about time for me to say something. I gazed more thoughtfully this time, and stammered out:

"Soooooooo.. *cough* how do you spend your Saturday nights?"

The words barely left my lips before pictures began to flood my mind. Mr. Cera spends his Friday nights IN 'DIS CLUB mackin on the women under the flashing strobe lights and pretending to be 21 with his lemon-water("On the rocks please"). Oh wait, breaking news: MICHEAL CERA IS 21 (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0148418/). My apologies Mr. Cera.

"Blogging.."

Supermodels grinding on Micheal vanished. Lemon water with it.
I stood up and promptly walked off.


I amuse myself too much. Judging by the above it would seem to be a curse because I highly doubt that anyone else will find that as hilarious as I did while I was writing. The fact of the matter is - SELF AMUSEMENT IS AWESOME.

How do you survive your Computer Science professor droning on about things you learned in 8th grade. Amuse yourself.
Think up the most ridiculous situation in your head and roll with it.
"How would my teacher respond when Eva Longoria walks in?"
Well obviously, as a CompSci professor he would stutter and stammer and stare at her breasts. Eva would shoot a look into his eyes, towards her chest and back to his eyes. Lick her lips and pounce him. Or maybe he would order her into her seat and she could take notes on the intricacies of DNS servers while the students hurried to grab their cell-phone cameras for proof.
It's up to you to decide.

Self-Amusement is a skill to be developed through practice. Bring yourself through boring class periods, entertain your friends, and write awesome blog posts. The great thing about Self-Amusement is the vibe that you put out. Even passer-bys can see the hilarity and awesomeness that is radiated when someone is self-amusing. It just screams the fact that the individual is approachable and a serious source of fun. State the amusements outloud and soon friends will join in, creating more and more ridiculous situations and jokes until laughs are etched onto faces and everyone feels as if they just finished 50 situps.

The intrapersonal effects are even greater for individuals who have a habit of Self-Amusement. Where is the chance of depression when positive endorphins can be injected with a single thought? I notice myself feeling a lot more confident and positive after I've been through a session of amusement with my friends. The high feeling of being able to tackle any problem is one that thousands of people have turned to serious drugs for. Save yourself the money and side effects and practice your skillzzz.

Every Cool Kid.... Self-Amuses.
