Just a little bit..

Hello all. As most of you may know my name is Dahye Diana Ku. I am currently 17 and I reside in Bayside, Queens. From the moment we were told to write a monologue, I was nervous and I didn’t know what to think. I know this is supposed to be a way of you guys getting to know me, but I generally don’t just open up to people that well. All my close friends would tell you, I’m the one that keeps everything inside. So yeah, I’ve been stressing about this monolgue and I’ve been going around asking everyone how their monologue is going. But really, I was just freaking out and hoping someone would help. Then someone gave me the most simplistic, yet helpful advice. “Just answer the questions that were asked in class” and then I realized I’ve been worrying myself this whole time for nothing. That’s another thing about me. I worry and work myself up about every little thing…
Well the two questions I wanted to answer about myself are: What I like best and what I like least. For each I will answer with a place, a food, a type of person, and an animal. My favorite place is the beach. But more than going to the beach in the summertime, I like going there when it’s really cool outside. The best feeling is walking on the sand in a pair of UGGs. That’s why I promised myself to one day live two blocks away from a beach (like Kim). My favorite food at the moment is Spanish food, but I generally love to try new foods so I’ll probably change my mind tomorrow. I like to be around people that are just down to earth and fun to talk to. For me it’s really important to feel comfortable enough to be myself around a person. My favorite animal is the beagle. I want one so badly, but my mom won’t let me get one because I’ve convinced her to get me hamsters, fish, and a cat. And after the first month, I stopped taking care of it. So now, even if I promise to take good care of it she won’t believe me.
Now for my least favorites. My least favorite place would be any confined dark space. This is because when I was about 5 I was playing a game of hide and go seek. So I ran into this small closet and hid in there. I sat there all excited at how great my hiding spot was, and then I realized it was too good because nobody ended up being able to find me. I started feeling nervous and scared. After what felt like an eternity, my mom finally found me. She claims my eyes were filled with tears, but I don’t remember that part of the story. My least favorite food is papaya. I think it smells so disgusting. But I love ALL other veggies and fruits. I despise arrogant, self-centered people. Like those cocky individuals that flaunt their “incredible” possessions, as if those things define them. And lastly I hate mice & birds.
So that’s a little bit about me. Thanks for listening.
