I have to write a monolouge for English class. . .?
Is this a good monolouge? Its a true story. I have to preform this in front of my whole class…Im so scared.
"This is the room….The one where it all happened. Where on of the saddest moments of my life was created. I havent been in here, since, since she…Died. My grandma. Dead. Forever. I thought this might be a good room to…think about her.
Well, im thinking..Thinking about how she, she was the best grandma ever.! I miss her–My grandma—So much. That corner over there, thats where her oxegyn tubes were, and over there, her bes used to be there. *Sigh*
Why did she have to die? She wasnt even that old..Sixty, seventy, maybe? Gosh, that stupid, stupid cancer. It almost, almost makes me glad she was cremated, not burried, so we can burn the ugly life out of that monstrous cancer!
I miss her smile. the print of lipstick she would leave on my cheek. I miss her sitting on my bed when i was little, telling me about when she was a child. I miss her tight hugs, where i suffocated in her perfume-smelling arms. But most of all, i think i miss her voice. Her croation accented, high pitch, sometimes shaky voice. The way she said my name. *Sad smile*
My poor Dad, that was his mom! THe only mom he would ever had. I would have no idea if i would to ever lose my mom. Moms…They are the ones that are jsut always there for you. The ones that care for you, look out for you, love on you. The ones that gave birth to you. I heard that the sound of your mother’s heartbeat can reduse stress level, and calm you down.
My grandma, she was an amzing woman. Not to mention a great cook. If i close my eyes, i could almost still taste the delicious cake she made me on my Seventh birthday. If i close my eyes, i could imagine a lot of things. I could hear her laugh echoing in my ears. I could see her kneeling down in church, eyes pressed tight, praying. I could feel her thin, smooth, fragile skin under my little fingers. i could see her smiling, lookin down at me, while holding my hand.
I hope, wherever she is, she is doing better then she was doing down here. i hope she is having fun. i hope she is satisfied. I hope she doesnt have to worry about pain or, or suffering. Or nasty, and probably uncomfortable tubes going up her nose. I hope she still laughs and smiles. But most of all, i hope she still thinks about me"
