October 23, 2011 by David Tsui - 2 Comments Monologue When I was five years old, I wanted to be a police officer and shoot bad guys when I grow up. I got my inspiration and the idea of being a police officer when I grew up watching the T.V. show, Cops. I thought I was receiving a firsthand experience of what it was like to be a police officer by watching that show, but most likely the show is fake and acted. I also wanted to see what it was like driving a police car while chasing down a suspicious vehicle. Being a police officer may seem great and fun, but it is also a very risky job (although that may not be the case for every police officer). Also, my parents forbade me from being a police officer.
