Robotics by Joseph arnone
NICK: I don’t know man, I kind of been struggling with it, I guess. Not sure what I want to do, really. I don’t know how it’s so easy for everybody else it seems. Like Dan, he just always knew he wanted to be a basketball player, since he was like five. How the hell do you know something like that so young, right? I mean, I don’t even remember being five. Crazy to me.
I don’t even know what college I want to go to and how can I know if I don’t know what it is I want to do. The stuff I like has nothing to do with anything or it’s like a specialized school and my family doesn’t have the money for me, not with three brothers and three sisters. (beat) I love mechanical things…building robotics type stuff. Wires and connectors. I’ve always been into that. You know, you see all my gadgets and stuff but where am I gonna go for that? I just think it’s a dream man. I’m probably going to do some community college type thing and get some regular job making decent money somewhere. I don’t know. Sounds lame but I don’t think I can take my interest in robotics too seriously because it just doesn’t seem like something that can happen.
Talking to my parents about it is a freaking joke. Always too busy and they just expect me to go to community college anyway like my older brothers, so, whatever right? What can I do?
What do you think man, what do you think I should do?
this monologue here is quite clear (hey that rhymes)and that he wants to go to college but he cannot decide which one to go to along with not knowing what he wants to do and his parents clearly want him to go to community college even though he does not want to
anyway guys I hope you guys/girls that you liked this post and please be sure to leave a comment in the comments section and also share this with your family and Friends and I will see you guys in the next Post bye bye
p,s here are two other monologues made by the same guy that I found and I think that you guys might like and I found them prior to this post and they are made by the same guy
ERIC: I don’t like the way he bullies you Mom. (beat) What’s he gotta push you around like that for? …I saw him Mom, I heard him push you and I heard you scream at him. You didn’t think I was home, I was home. I DON’T LIKE HIM! He’s no good for you or this family. Send him back wherever he came from, he’s a total shitbag and I can’t stand him!
He’s abusive. He’s changing you Mom. He’s pulling us apart from one another. Don’t you see any of this? Jesus Christ! I’m trying to tell you something, can’t you pay attention to me Mom?! PLEASE! I’m your son, listen to what I’m saying to you….look at me, Mom. Mom, please, just…..RRRRRRAAAAA!!!!! Son of a—you see? Mnnnnnrrrrr, what I’m talking about? There’s no communication anymore. Nobody knows how to talk to anybody. It’s always shouting and violence. It was never like that when pop was around. (beat) I know he wasn’t great but at least he didn’t beat you…
(pause.)
Mom, please, I love you, can’t we just go…let’s jut get out of here. You know? Look at me. It’s been you and me since forever. We don’t need nobody but eachother. You hear me? I love you Mom. Please, I love you. I’ll take care of you. I’ll quit school, get a job. I’ll help you pay the bills. Come on, it’s not too late; we can start again…this time we’ll make better choices Mom. Are you with me? Yeah? You hear me? We can just grab what we need and leave. Start a new life Mom. Just you and me like the old day. Right? Just us. We can do this Mom. Come on, I need you to be strong. Haven’t you always taught me to be strong? Yeah? Okay, well I can’t be strong without ya. Alright? I need you and you need me. I swear, I’ll never let anybody else ever hurt you. You hear me? We can do this Mom. Together.
(pause.)
Listen, he goes to play golf this Saturday. We’ll take off then. I have like a thousand dollars saved up in cash from all the lawns I’ve been mowing this summer. Plus, I know you have two grand cause of what you told me last week; so there. That’s three thousand dollars and a new life. Right? I’ll plan the whole thing out. Okay. Miami. I heard alot of good things about Miami lately. What do you think? Interested in some fun in the sun? (he smiles) Okay. Then that’s what we’ll go for.
(beat)
I love you Mom. You’re my life. I’d die for you.
this is good
