Monologue

This assignment was really difficult, because I honestly had no idea what I wanted to say. Plus I waited until the absolute last minute to start this assignment; hey at least I’m being honest. I guess I’ll tell you a little about myself, college, and what I plan to accomplish in the future. Hey, my name is Jason, I was born and raised in Queens and I’m of Italian, Polish and German descent. I went to Martin Luther High School. I couldn’t wait to go to college, just like everyone else in my High School since we all believed it was such a shitty school. I can’t believe that I’m already in college; life is going by way too quickly. College so far is the complete opposite of what I thought when I was in High School. Two words can describe college perfectly so far and those are “hectic and stressful.” I had an idea that it was going to somewhat difficult but all this responsibility is beyond overwhelming and sickening. Two months into college and I already can’t take the workload given. I blame most of that on myself since I am such a lazy person, but seeing everything piling up just tells me that this is not a game and it’s time to get serious. Procrastination is no longer an option, and you will not survive long in this college scene if you continue to remain lazy. I no longer can mess around giving only half effort like in high school and still produce good grades; college takes a lot of determination and dedication. I have quickly realized that, after falling behind with everything so far. I guess maybe it’s the fact that we didn’t get to pick classes our first semester, so I don’t have much interest and I’m just going through the motions. The end of this semester I will tough out and deal with, but this upcoming semester I need to completely change my attitude towards school and put effort in to my schoolwork, studying etc. Once I’m back on track with everything, I intend to go into the Zicklin program because I have an interest in business, accounting and marketing though I don’t know specifically where I want to go with that just yet. I also am interested by broadcasting, so I am going to minor in communications. Well I hope I didn’t bore you too much, thanks for listening.
