I know Elise has been looking forward to this day for so long, and now her big day is here! All she's been anticipating for months was this graduation night. I'm so proud of my baby! I know middle school has been hell for her. She almost never had a good thing to say about her days at school. She’d say things like, “school was awful” and complain “I don’t want to go to school”, which can be said by almost every kid, but this was different than a kid complaining about school just to complain.
I think she was bullied, but she would always deny it. I knew there was something going on, so even though she never admitted to being bullied or anything, I was always there for her anyways. It just broke my heart to see her so miserable when it came …show more content…
We’re all excited to be able to see her walk with the most confidence she’s had in years. I already know she's back wherever she is with the rest of her class just waiting to get this over with. She's been ready to leave this school since she got there, and tonight is the night she can finally say goodbye to some of the toughest years she's lived through.
She's grown up so fast! It felt like just last week she started her first day of middle school, and now she's finished with it. Now she's going to keep growing up as she moves on to her high school years and so on. I know she's nervous for that, and so am I, but I know she's just happy to be moving on from junior high and she’ll continue to make her family proud.
We all waited in the bleachers for quite a while, and we were becoming impatient. After so long, the conversations sort of died as we grew even more impatient. Then, after what seemed to be forever, students finally began to walk out to the gym and take their seats. "Where is she? Do you see her yet?" was repeated a lot by our family. We were so excited!
There were a lot of students coming in, but eventually we saw my baby. It was hard to see her face because we were high up in the bleachers, but I can tell she was happy. She looked like such a beautiful young lady in her white graduation gown. Wow... where has the time …show more content…
Eventually, she spotted us and came over. I started to cry again when she walked over and gave us all a hug. “I’m so proud of you,” we all exclaimed, “you did it!” It’s so obvious she was beyond happy at the fact she was free from that awful place and the majority of the people in it. We moved to a more open area to take pictures of her with each of us and her friends. Seeing her with her best friends since kindergarten just reminded me how they'll be going to the same high school with her. That gave me a lot of hope for her. I really hope high school treats her a lot better and she's happier

Ophelia's Monologue In Hamlet Act 1 Scene 3

My monologue is from the perspective of Ophelia, specifically during Act 1 scene 3. It uses mainly the theory of feminism that says both males and females should be treated equally and fairly. Ophelia throughout the duration of the play has many moments of inner turmoil, especially involving Prince Hamlet. She loves him, yet he messes with her emotions by showing love, then anger, then lust towards her. I am focusing mainly on when Ophelia’s brother and father are giving her the advice to leave…

also women. The stories were similar in themselves because they both show the struggle that female authors went through in that time period trying to publish a book or novel. Some similar events happened in the stories, like despair, travel and monologues (done by the narrators themselves). The despair comes at a point in time in the stories that is called the climax (the “peak” of the story) and in the “story of an hour” the despair comes when the wife finds out about the large train car accident…

I recognise this in my monologue choosing to portray a slight innocent, child-like characteristic to like to highlight the fact that he is innocent of the world and its code of behaviour. A child is seen as an innocent being that needs to be guided through the world by a parental figure, Prospero is seen as the parental figure that should lead Caliban through the behavioural norms of the world. This has been exhibited in my devised monologue where Caliban mentions ‘He was my master…

This may further suggest that Fiagaro saw the marriage ask a quick event with nothing special to it. This entertains the reader. The monologue style to the tale adds to the reader’s amusement.
