High School Musical Monologue

Hippocampus
Obviously, when I hear the term, hippocampus, I think of hippopotami! I think of a college campus full of them roaming about. I imagine these creatures prancing around on two feet, carrying a backpack on their backs, walking to class. I then think of them trying to type on the keyboards in the library with their ginormous feet. I also think that all of the hippos would have to drive large trucks because they would not be small enough to fit into a car. I love hearing and seeing the term written somewhere; it always makes me giggle!
Rehearsal
Rehearsal makes me think of the movie, High School Musical. All of the main characters have hobbies and scheduled classes of their own, but when it comes to Theater class, they are all in there together. In this class, the students are rehearsing for a play. Most of the characters are forced to attend the class, but soon end up enjoying it. As the students rehearse, their instructor evaluates their performances in order to choose roles in the play. Of course, the coach’s son and captain of the basketball team, and the nerdy, unpopular girl are assigned the main roles of the play.
Scripts
I work at a pharmacy in Tishomingo. When I am at work, I hear about scripts and prescriptions the entire time I am there. A customer will come by the drive through or in the store itself

I have seen my 14 year old cousin battle osteosarcoma and leukemia for two years and pass from the disaster after two years. I have also watched my 15 year old dog slowly and painfully live his last two months of life on different medications. Two weeks ago, as I was driving to school, I witnessed an ambulance pull into a driveway. Two men stepped out of the ambulance, grabbed the gurney from the back of the vehicle, ran into the house, placed a man on the gurney, rushed back to the ambulance, lifted him into the back of the vehicle, and quickly drove

    Ponyboy was really the first person I could express my opinions to and the first person I could really talk to about how I feel about this stupid social division we have to go by. Even though he doesn’t really understand how we Socs have problems too, I can see that he at least sort of understands- not completely, but just a little… Knowing that he sort of understands is a mixed feeling of relief and just a bit of an absurd feeling as well, I mean, a Soc and a greaser actually having a nice conversation.. I didn’t expect him to actually understand at all, but I also didn’t expect him to be completely ignorant about it either. “Cherry, look what’s coming,” Marcia quickly addressed. I watched the blue Mustang as it was coming down the street.…

    Through my attendance of a rehearsal a few weeks prior to the performance I garnered a general idea of what to expect. Throughout the duration of the rehearsal most of the actors seemed extremely familiar with their roles in terms of lines and stage directions. Most of the rehearsal was just making small tweaks to make the actors more comfortable and working on the fluidity of the stage directions. For example working on certain stage directions so actors were not in the way of each other when another actor had a stage direction. I approached this experience with a very open mind, and the time spent learning about theater in the classroom helped immensely with the understanding of this production.…

In this particular adaptation, the cast consisted of 6 actors, 1 playing the role of Mary Girard and the other 5 doubling up on characters.…
