I want status! I want glory! I want women and I want money! I want everything this world can offer!!! -Greed the Avaricious
Starting a monologue with a quote might be clichéd but if the quote represents you, then I believe it’s a good way to start. The aforementioned quote is from a character from Full Metal Alchemist, my most favorite anime when I was a teenager and I found out that how much the quote describe me and pretty much everyone around me. This quote may often come too honest or too offensive to many people but I know these are what men usually want and anyone who denies these are either a saint or a liar. Now that you know my aim, I’m free to rage about other stuff of my life.
Since I’m writing this monologue for a class which already knows me pretty well, I don’t find any point in discussing my history. By now, everyone knows that I’m a straightforward guy whom one will find smiling, and in a good mood more often than not. The only time when I am seriously depressed is when I get incredibly bad grades in some test or someone drives me nuts which doesn’t happen a lot. The only time I had a hard time with life was a few months ago when I had a problem with my college admission. The one thing more heartbreaking than not being admitted to your favorite college is getting admitted to your favorite college and not being able to go there. This happened to me and life got seriously bad for me for a few weeks.
What else can I say? I always wanted to study medicine but after coming to Baruch, I want to study business. I don’t know what I’ll be doing after graduation but I want to work for the UN or Sony Entertainment. As I promised earlier, I was going to be perfectly honest in this monologue, I’ll say that I don’t like girls who takes duck-faced pictures of them and post it in Facebook. Actually I detest them; don’t know why I’m saying this.
There is an incredible difference between me a year ago and how I am right now. I always thought myself as an introvert, but now I find myself more willing to talk to people I don’t know. Now, I’m more confident in my verbal skills than I was before. English isn’t my first language and I often make mistakes in pronunciations but I don’t let these stop me from saying what I want. I guess this skill and confidence to talk to people came from this FRS class (I am not flattering Rob and Leanna; there is no credit in this subject) and I think that for a person who intends to join a leading business corporation, having strong verbal skill and confidence in himself is absolutely crucial. The time I felt really proud was the time when I opened my very own bank account with my own money and the bank associate called me Mr. Khan. Before then people only called my father Mr. Khan, and being addresses as that made feel really good.
Well, that’s it for me, I wanted to be more free with my language here but I don’t want to scare away any potential employers who might be reading this. The quote was bad enough.
