Taking Back Sunday

I did not blog the other day because I've been sick for the last week with the terrible cold. I'm slowly getting better as the day get by but like I said last time I wrote I said that I was going to read 100 monologues, well guess what, I read a bunch of monologues. And out of those I picked 18 monologues for class on Monday. Friday afternoon I picked up some monologue books from my professor's office and here's this list of 50 monologues and where I got it from. Here's the list.

The Begining of Something Awesome

Currently Listening to: "Everyone Wants To Rule the World" by Tear for Fears

This week was the first days of my last semester of my undergraduate year at Lynn University. And I thought to myself wow it comes to this. This is the beginning of something awesome. This blog is for my senior communication seminar class and I blog about anything. Well I decided for my senior comm seminar that I will be doing a one man show which will include written material by yours truly (points fingers to myself) me, Tully Bertorelli and other material such as monologues, songs, poems written by other people. To sum me up in a nut shell I'm from Chicago, Illinois and I'm a drama major (hence the one man show.) So my first objective that I'm going to do over the weekend as well as do homework is read 100 monologues and then pick 50 out of them and present them to my professor on Monday what I found. This is the beginning of something awesome.
