The blog is now online. I would have liked to make my own website and everything, but hey, this is exactly what I’d end up with anyways.
My name is Kurt Bernasch. I’m 18, live at home, and am currently out of high school and enrolled in University come September. I hail from Ancaster, Ontario, Canada (For those of you who don’t know where Ontario is…). I have many problems not diagnosed by a doctor, but are quite clearly real. I suffer from Social Anxiety Disorder, a small degree of Depression (runs in the family), and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (I have a need to keep my hands very clean at all times, so much that they are red year-round, even with constant moisturizing with the best stuff. I also have a set routine in the morning and before bed that I have ALWAYS completed). But I would never consider having these diagnosed, as the medication would get rid of my imagination and creativity. I am convinced one day those will create something of great value to myself and society.
Sometimes I wish I could just stop thinking (It takes me an hour or two each night to fall asleep, even with herbal sedatives.). In real life, I’m quite quiet. I guess it’s because I’m always thinking about something, so I never have any time to spend gabbing away about nothing. As I type this I’m reading it aloud in my head (Can you do that?), as well as playing Rob D’s “Clubbed to Death” piano solo in my head.
This blog will serve two purposes: To let the world know what I do every day, and to share the book “This book will change your life” with the world.
I won’t be performing all 365 activities in the book: that’s just crazy, and would become very boring after a while. I will, however, perform and record (video and pictures, maybe; audio, definitely) select activities that suit my fancy.
