Shark Tank Tuesdays

Tomorrow is Tuesday, and Tuesdays are quickly becoming one of my favorite days

It's the day I have Effective Speaking, one of my required classes this quarter. What I first thought would be a boring class dealing with public speaking, has actually turned into an interesting class that focuses on pitching, and selling yourself and your ideas. A large part of why I look forward to this class is because the instructor shows segments of the show, Shark Tank.

For those of you who are not aware of Shark Tank, don't worry; I'll break it down for you. It's a reality show about five "Sharks" — multi-millionaire business tycoons — who hear investment proposals from entrepreneurs and consider whether to invest in the businesses. The show itself isn't what's so entertaining; I was familiar with the British version, Dragon's Den. What I look forward to is the "Sharks". These are some characters. They bicker, they argue, they attack each other and the entrepreneurs. It's entertaining. Especially when it comes to Kevin. Man, this guy deserves to be a villain in a cartoon. Correction: I WILL make him a villain in one of my cartoons.

Check them out for yourself.
