Laughter is the Best Medicine

Last Saturday I went to Yuk Yuk's Comedy club in Vancouver. I had been there once in the summer with my sister and had a blast. This time was just as good. The first comedian wasn't the best, but the MC and the other comedians were awesome. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. This time 'round was on a second date with a guy. I am enjoying dating. I don't think I have ever enjoyed dating this much. Just talking and getting to know the person. And it doesn't hurt that I am in a city with so much more to do than the places I have lived in the past. The Skytrain and I are becoming very good friends, well kind of expensive friends. It isn't cheap to take it every weekend. But I am out exploring and having fun so it is worth it to me. 
Anyway little off topic there, back to the comedy show! 
I grew up watching comedians and have always loved seeing how people can just get up on stage and try to make people laugh. It is so much more than just having a few funny jokes. You have to come up with new jokes for different sets and be able to tell how the room is responding to your material. I mean I could never even get up on stage so that's also impressive. I feel like laughter is some of the best medicine there is out there. Whether from a comedy show or out with friends. It can take you from a bad day to having a great time. I like Yuk Yuk's because it isn't all just professionals going up. It is up and coming comedians, professionals and local people. It's a great environment and so much fun. If you like comedy I recommend going to Yuk Yuk's. They are all over Canada and feature great acts! Or any comedy show. Just go, have fun and LAUGH!!
