Hi, I am Bill.

So my name is Bill and I am Candra's boyfriend. We are going to do this alternating journal entry to see if anything interesting comes of it. The thing is we can't read each others entries. We have to be honest and write our feelings and be completely honest. It should be pretty interesting. This pretty much my introduction post so I will tell you a little bit about myself and how I met Candra.

I am a stand up comedian. I have been doing it since 2004. Before Stand Up comedy I was a Mormon Missionary in the Philippines. I never wanted to be a missionary but it was something very important to my parents so I did it to make the happy. It wasn't the best two years but it had its moments and was worth it for the most part. I am not an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (mormons) any more. When I got home from the Philippines I started doing stand up because I knew I wanted a career where I could have fun and be myself.

Over the passed 3 years I have done pretty well for myself as a comedian. I am performing pretty much full time or at least enough to scrape by. Stand Up is how I met Candra who I fell in love with despite it being completely inconvenient to both of us. She has three girls that I love but I never thought I would be as big a part of there lives as I am. We met via myspace after she left a comment on the headliners myspace page and I added her as a friend. I noticed her on her way out of the comedy club and immediately thought she was cute so I was happy to have found her on myspace. It turns out we could have met months earlier because she ran across my profile while researching to do a project she still hasn't done. We went out a few times and were pretty comfortable right from the start. We are pretty in love and I know that because we are that couple that everyone hates to be around because we are always kissing and holding hands and acting like a couple of faggots really.

I just moved to New York City to further my comedy career. This journal will document Candra and my relationship and how it holds up. We will see how this thing works out.
