Note: These are the words to my actual monologue excluding “NOTE!” ^_^
Hi! I’m Cybele.
I usually talk better if I just say things on the spot! So I’ll try that…
But I’m not going bending the rules because Joanna told us to post our monologues on the blog last night… And I did. This is it.
Honestly, I could just talk about myself for three minutes and be done with this monologue, but I don’t really want to do that…
I see this as a chance to learn how to talk in public so I won’t take the easy way out…
Anyways…. back to my monologue… wait a minute…. this is my monologue! Haha! Everything that I’m saying right now is part of my actual monologue! Even now!!
Hmmmm… isn’t this a predicament? If everything that I’m saying is part of my monologue then when does it stop? Or when did it actually start? Are all these rhetorical questions really part of my monologue??
Should I answer that?? Yes? No? Am I answering that right now!!
Sorry if I lost all of you! I’m really nervous!
So back to what I was saying before… I could just ramble on about my life for 3 minutes and talk to you about my adorable boyfriend who has been busy because NYU- Poly is crazy killing him with homework and tests but seeing as the majority are all boys… I’m gonna spare you all the girly details! Side note: We’re currently 9 months and I’m happy! ^^
So.. what should I talk about…hmmm…. I don’t know….
Oh I wish I can speak in Filipino right now… All of you would be getting an earful if I talked to you in my language! Yeah! You’d all be bored and think “When will she ever finish??” “OMG, she talks too much” “Shut up… SHut Up… ShuT uP… SHUT UP!” So thank god you can’t understand tagalog!
Not that you would want to… I mean it’s hard…
You’d have to learn the phrases first, then learn about different words… the different sentence structures.. how to conjugate! I mean.. can you believe it?? In the Philippines, I had a total of 11 subjects and one of them is Filipino! I even had to learn about my own language in class!!
Well,I can’t really blame it… the education system I mean… I talk in Filipino slang all of the time so my Filipino vocabulary isn’t really that big anymore…actually, now that I think about it… It was never big to begin with! And did I even pass that class???
Hmmm… Wow… I wanna stop talking in english now…
Gusto ko lang na malaman ninyo na ako’y nagbibiro lamang! Hindi ko intensyon na pagtawanan kayo kasi hindi ninyo ako maintindihan. Para sa akin, gusto ko lang na mapakinggan ninyo ang wika ng aking bansa. Salamat po sa pakikinig!
Translation: I would just like all of you to know, that I am only kidding. It wasn’t my intention to make fun of you because you can’t understand me! For me, I just wanted to introduce to all of you my language! Thank you very much for listening!
Formal right???? I was trying to sound intellectual!
Well… anyways! I don’t really want to extend my time anymore! If any of you want to know more info please go to my website “idon’treallyhaveawebsite.com/cybele” … and yes! That was a joke!
Again! Thank you all for listening! :3
