Monologue
My name is Morris. I enjoy mixing music and playing sports. I hate the Boston Celtics. I am someone you can always count on to do their best. I am a son, brother, uncle, cousin to different people. My parents are important to me because they guide me into living the right way. I come from a community in Brooklyn and I am in college today to hopefully help me in the real world. I am not too fond of dogs, snakes and that little girl from “The Ring.” I always feel like she’s chasing me when I go up the stairs. Coming through when it’s a challenge and winning tough games make me happy. I’m also glad when I make a nice mix that I thought of come to life. There is no greater feeling. What is important to me is being there for your family, friends or your teammates and especially yourself. One embarrassing moment that I will never forget is being pansted by my friend’s uncle at his house with many people around. I was seven and a good boy. Don’t know what I did to deserve that one. I like to go by Drake’s motto of “You Only Live Once” because it teaches you to be more outgoing in life and to participate in more things. If you don’t do it now, you’ll probably regret it later. My greatest accomplishment, until the Knicks win a title, would have to be going to college and lasting as long as I have. The college opportunity is one I had to take because once again, “You Only Live Once.”
