Book 42 of 2015- "Yes, My Accent is Real" by Kunal Nayyar

So, this is an actor from "the Big Bang Theory". It's a pretty funny show, and he plays an astrophysicist in it. I saw he had a book coming out, so I reserved it at the library for the heck of it.
I guess that when he was in college, he didn't even know he wanted to act. He started in the business program, and then just started acting in plays for the heck of it. He also talks about the time he tried to kiss a Mormon girl (of course) and she freaked out because he is a Hindu. He also had a huge roommate from France, and worked as a janitor in college. And the thing that was most interesting to me was that he got his job on the Big Bang Theory on his first audition. He needed a job to get a different visa since his student visa was expiring. That's pretty much how it goes in Hollywood, right? 

I'm kind of excited to read more substantial things than actors' memoirs. As funny as they are (and I have more coming in the future), it's also fun to read things that excite the imagination.
