Default hOw I gOt StArTeD

it all started when i was about twelve years old. we were having a garage sale and i was told to put a clown suit that we were selling on and go on the side of the road to attract people. i really didnt think it would do anything until the guy that owned the coffee house down the street asked me to do this for him. being young i thought nothing of it so said yes, well i started doing other clown stuff you know, juggling, unicycle, and other stuff. i have now successfully been in parades and fairs/carnivals and done a lot of walk around stuff. right now i am not busy so i just go out in my neighborhood and ride my unicycle and juggle for the neighborhood kids but this is how i got started.
