Final edition of Routine

Showering in the morning due, questions came to his mind, “Every moment in my life, I’ve never felt special. Will I ever be successful?"

The Daily Report

1. Bringing laughter and joy is not the only purpose of a comedy. The true intention of comedy is when bringing up a political or a social controversy, and presents those with a little drop of humor to the audience. Believing that comedy is not just the advent of laugher, but also a truth to some degree. Steward claims his role as a comedian, because of his primary role of bringing satirical sense into his “report”. The Daily Show serves its purpose as mentioning the current issues around the globe; especially in America. Compared to other typical comedy programs, the Daily Show somewhat brings a true sense of reality and humility into America’s social and political system. Making the show the target wide range of audience, the Daily Show brings a little sense of humor to lessen the harsh criticism.

2. Tongue-In-Cheek:
Tongue-in-cheek refers to when a fictional work or a statement is not taken seriously. Tongue-in-cheek is also popular among gerneration-x’ers. For example Sean would refer himself as “S-man”, while this is not suppose to be taken seriously, it is delivered in a serious way.

Routine

“Every moment in my life, I’ve done nothing special than being a boy. What is my purpose in this world? Will I ever get rich or become famous? What if I fail my family and my peers? I don’t want to do this anymore, because it’s very tiring and cold. What humiliations do I have to face today, and what kind of despise will I receive on my face? Is it a mistake that I was born to this world? I just want to be free from everything…. “With these thoughts, Paul got out from his bed.

5 minutes

Sitting in a hot and a small room, I checked the clock: What? 12 already? The last time I've checked the clock, it was 5.... That doesn’t' matter, right now I have to finish this. Wait, how am I suppose to go home? Again, that doesn't matter; I have to finish this. Jesus, this blade cannot cut well. Darn, I got another cut, and this one is pretty deep. Ok, now blood is running down my arm. Time to go to the hospital; wait, is the hospital open? Wait, where is the nearest hospital?
