Homecoming Monologue

Improved Essays
No one seemed to notice the raging steam coming out my ears along with the storm of tears pouring out of my eyes. It wasn’t even 9:30 yet. Mr. Heb was explaining how to get X by itself, there was a dark cloud above my head. It was just sitting there, not moving, creating more ungracious thoughts. Until it disappeared and quickly responded, only to appear much darker than before. I then blacked out, but Mr. Heb still continued to teach Algebra math. Have you ever made comparisons with a total stranger and then you automatically think you’re best friends because you have everything in common? The bad part is, you don't know what they don't like. You don't know what they’re like because you just became friends. You don't know their …show more content…
Some get over it and move on to the next obstacle, some don’t get off that easy. That fight, it’s going to stick in your memory. Some people don’t let it off that easy, sometimes it goes too far, It gets too overwhelming when your so called “best friend” tells you who you can't, and can hang out with. Especially when it's a very special time of the year, Homecoming. It’s one thing if your friend tells you not to hang with one particular person because they are bad or a bad influence, but it's another when they tell you, you can't hang out with your best friend you’ve had forever. My best friend and I promised to be in the same homecoming group, we’ve had that plan forever. I wanted all my close friends to be with me, in the same group. Disagreements were made, and a lot of fighting went on. I guess you could call the controlling friend “the leader of the group” because she thinks she makes all the decisions. My best friend got kicked out of the group because supposedly no one liked her. That wasn't true. I was being told I couldn’t be in her group, that I had to stay in her group. At that point, I didn't know what to do with her. Nervous and discourages, I was too scared to stand up to her, or say one word that was the most important… …show more content…
Hearing me being historical in the other room, my mom rushed into the room not knowing what had just happened. I explained what happened and she ended up giving me a lecture and he advice. My mom added that “Your life, is your life. You do what you want. Your friend should not be controlling who you talk to, who your friends are, nor what group you should be in. That is your choice and your choice only.” What she said really hit me, it finally hit me hard enough to see the reality on this situation. Sitting on the ground, distraught, I knew what I had to do. I needed to stand up to her, and that's what I did. Taking out my phone again I typed her contact in and began to write her a message saying that, that I was tired of her controlling my life and that I needed to make my own designs. Of course she didn't like me standing up to her, which is typical, so she continued to go on. She wasn't worth my time. She was causing too much distress towards me, and my mental health. To this day, currently right now, my life is better now that no one is controlling it. Yes of course your parents tell you who's bad to hang out with and what's right or wrong, but they're your parents. They know better, they're older and wiser. My lesson is learned, If a friend wants to control you that bad then automatically cut them off. It’s your life, not theirs. Do what you

    This song strongly reminds me of Zach becasue he was always the master at pranks and finding ways to embarrass (bully) other students. The tone of the melody fits perfectly with Zach's personality becasue he is always thinking of a way to bully or pick on someone. According to pg. 14, the text states, "I did a quick scan to confirm there were no teachers looking on.... I reached up and snached a letter off.…

    Andover Monologue

    “Well, I hit on Andover as the first town because it seemed like a quiet and likely spot where an old, frail little lady who owned a shop would be killed. I found Mrs. Ascher when I was in that town for personal business about a few months ago, and I had noticed that she was often in her little shop alone. For letter B, I had to use slightly different tactics. By now, lonely women in shops would have been warned about a killer on the loose, so I had to change the characteristics of my next victim. I often visited tea shops and cafes, where I began to notice girls with names who began with the right letter.…

    October Monologue

    • 1141 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Isolated in a crater, surrounded by deep green mountains, sat Huoron, a squat little town of just over two thousand. On the outskirts lie quaint little cottages with outhouses that were empty now, only to be filled in the summer when people try to escape the ball and chain of modern life. The pure, untainted green of the forest seemed to draw less and less people as the attraction of nature became less and less desirable. As you look further in, the cottage scene is corrupted with dotted factories and tall, nameless buildings that loomed, almost pretentiously, over the humble homes of the little people. Rory Langley was a normal man, about to turn twenty-eight in two months time.…

    I am over protective. No, I am not Lancelot outside the palace doors; nor am I the bouncer keeping minors from entering the club. I am scared I will lose what I love and become jealous when someone is too friendly -- and I might even be said to be jealous. I am not jealous because no one has what I want, I have what I want. Which is you.…

    Bugs love me. It is an unrequited love. In the forests of North Carolina where I have spent summers since I was seven years old, it was a constant battle not to be consumed by the never ending mass of insects who rated me five-star cuisine. Maybe it was my fair skin, the light hue that drew them like a lantern in the night. Or maybe it was my fresh mint shampoo that made them think I was a part of the nature they so adored.…

    Finally I’ve said goodbay to Josie! I am glad, that I have such as nice friend as Josephine, however even she can not understand my position right now, as she used to know me as unconcerned and positive person, but it is not real me, at least not any more. Probably the worst thing, which I keep stressing out more than failed Maths competition is HSC exam. Overtime I do something wrong, I will pay it for weeks and this thought do not give me any opportunity to be myself and live a happy life. People think if I am a Barton I have everything what i want to…no, i don’t.…

    I Bailey Jaggers was at the hospital with my dad, who had been shot, when I met Ponyboy, Sodapop, and Darry Curtis.

They were there to see two of their friends, Johnny Cade and Dallas Winston, who had been injured in a fire.
