My life of Humor, Chaos and Drama is a non-fiction. This book comprises of events that occured in my life. Some were humorous, some dramatic and others chaotic.. Humor played an important part in my life growing up because some of my family members are comedians. We believe that laughter is the best medicine. An outstanding chaotic experience occurred, when I was present at the collapsing of the second tower of the World Trade Center on September, 11th 2001. The police officer saw me and told me to run or I would be killed. I heeded the urgent warning and ran to escape the crumbling debris. I walked for three and a half hours over the Brooklyn Bridge to get home. I was covered with white dust and hardly recognizable. I thank God for being with me that day and guiding me to safety. Dramatic experiences were numerous, such as scenes leading to the Inauguration of President Barack Obama. At any given day, there was drama In the New York subway.
