Freshman Seminar Spring 2011: F6A

It’s very interesting watching the performance of the monolog. I always believe that what people write inflects who they are. We can always read the writers by reading their works. And the actors acted like whoever the writer is based on their understanding of the monolog. It was a good way for us to see what other people is like and what they are thinking. For the writers whose monologs were presented, it was a good way to know how their monologs were understood by others and who others think they are by reading their monologs. It is good to hear others’ voices.

However, I think they should choose a better timing to present it. Actually, I was not happy to take a whole day off just sitting there watching a one and a half hours performance of students’ monologs. Noon time is really not a good choice. Even early in the morning or late at the afternoon will work much better than that. The whole thing about Voices and Monologs is a pretty good idea. I just hope that the Voices holders will consider the value of the student’s time and make the time more acceptable.
