Good News!

I am better. I am still tired, but I at least feel better.

I really don't have much to say. I just wanted to read something else besides a post saying I am sick again. Oh by the way, I had strep throat, so that's why my throat was sore. But as I said, I am better now.

I hate finding monologues. I am currently looking for a dramaitc monologue that'll allow me to have a lot of emotion...basically let go of myself. I have found dramatic ones I liked, but Sil said that I could do better ones than the ones I have found so far. So I am on a search still. Which reminds me, I need to memorize my comedic one ASAP. And my music for voice lessons too. Hmmm...I should work on that.

Well....that's about it. I really don't have much to say.

Act 2 memorized. One word: AHHHHHH!!!!! OK it's not really that bad. But Act 2 is definitely weaker than Act 1 for my memorization. But oh well.

Now I believe a good night is in order.

Good night.

    Hey CC, I don't remember if you can do a monologue from a movie, but I did this one from Dogma for my acting class last term. You may want to cut some lines for times sake, but I really liked it. Love you and good luck!

    Bethany: My first year in college. All through high school, I'd dated the same guy - Walter Flanigan. We were really in love, right? So much so that we decided to go to Carnegie Mellon together...that's this college in Pittsburgh. So there we are - away at school, and there's suddenly no parents to worry about anymore. so we're screwing like rabbits - just constantly doing it. And I wound up getting pregnant. So he begs me to have it. He says we should quit school and get married, and I'm telling him that we'll screw up our educations. We fought for about a week - my argument being there was no rush to have kids, you know? We could always have a baby in a couple of years - after school. So I got the abortion against his wishes . . . I mean, what the hell - it was my body, right? After graduation we got married and immediately set about trying to have kids. We tried like hell for the first 6 months, and - nothing. So I went to a gynecologist to see it everything was okay on my end. (pause) It wasn't. My uteran wall had this fissure. It seems that the doctor who performed the procedure on me years before had somehow botched it. I'd never be able to have a child. (takes a breath)
    So there I am - devastated. And now I have to go home to break the news to my husband who years before had begged me to have the baby - his baby. And after I explain it to him through my tears, he sits on the couch and rubs his eyes. And in the calmest, most rational voice I've ever heard anybody use in my life, he asks me for a divorce.
