Professor Dunkin Monologue

It was a Tuesday afternoon when my dad picked me up from school at 2:20 pm. It was my last year at Miami Carol City Senior High School. On the way home, we talked about him buying me my first car. I wanted a car because almost every senior at my high school drove to school. Even though my house was 3 minutes away, I walked to school, which made it 15 minutes walk. When we arrived in front of our house, we both walked inside the house and directly into the kitchen. As I turned the corner to into the kitchen, my mom was inside the kitchen making chicken pasta. My dad and I sat at the table as he said out loud, “ I think we should go ahead and buy Kia her first car.”

It was on a frigid, dark autumn night that I entered this wonderful world. November 13, 2000, the date, almost November 14th. My siblings had no idea that my name would be Clayton Wayne Griep, and that minutes before midnight on that night I was their brand new brother. A few days later I would leave that hospital in Zeeland, Michigan and be welcomed to my new house, at 4096 Marion St. in Hudsonville, Michigan. Two of my siblings were more than excited to see me, but one didn’t have any idea what was going on. Cam, who was not even a year old, unbeknownst to him, had a new roommate. Jordan, who was in the 2nd grade at the time, was eager to meet me, his eyes constantly locked on me. Jalen, using her newly found vocabulary, probably babbling

To start this off, i'm lost. I know i'm an idiot, but i'm going to try and make things right. What happened was me and the boys went out for our patrol earlier this morning. We were all so excited for Saturday that we weren't focusing on the job at hand. Without knowing we were attacked by a mob of Infected from behind, there was no other option but for all of us to split up. Now i'm here, I dont even know where here is. All the training we had just gone to waste. I would do anything to just go back in time and somehow just fix this all, but I can't and it’s tearing my heart to pieces. The suspense is terrible, I have no clue if anyone survived. I dont know if I could live with myself if anyone doesn't make it, explaining to their families that I killed their son. The amount of pain I have when a I write that is unmeasurable. Regret is all that I feel, and it's not going to fade away anytime soon.

It was that time of the year ,which was back to school, it was the day ,I got to meet my 8th grade teacher ,I was sweating and had butterflies in my stomach. It was coincidence to find my friend Sheyla at the parking lot. Sheyla said she has met her teacher ,but needed a few more supplies ,so she was just back from getting her last supplies. Sheyla’s family went with us to met my teacher ,and I was glad to see her because it was quite a while since I last saw her. Later, after we left Berkmar grounds,I went to Sheyla’s house and we hangout the rest of the day. It was the first day of school, usually I would be feeling nervous,but today I wasn't ,which was good because I didn't want have sweating hands and a racing heartbeat. I arrived at Berkamr and went straight to homeroom ,I found my seat and waited. My first day at school wasn't to bad because the only thing

It was October first when I woke up in my nice and cozy bed. Awakened by my light in my room and my mom yelling: “Rachel get up! You have to get ready for band.” I slowly opened my eyes and got up to go eat my usual breakfast, a Pop Tart. After I threw everything down, I got into my car and headed to the school. Once I got there I could see the two yellow buses that were going to take us to our destination. Everybody was all still tired and looked like they just got out of bed, with their hair in buns and in the clothes they slept inform the night before. When everyone eventually got on the buses we headed off to Sioux Falls. The whole ride there I wasn’t very nervous because I’ve performed this marching show so much but the tables will soon

This summer, in the first week of August, we went to Brighton, Michigan. I along with my grandma Sharon, my same age uncles: Logan and Cole, and my brother Hayden were all going. At 10:30 AM we left, getting into her in her car piling our stuff in. This consisted for me of 3 books, a deck of cards, a stick of deodorant and a few changes of clothes. I finished the first book, Rangers Apprentice The Lost Stories, about three hours down the road and halfway through it we stopped at the Iowa I-80 truck stop, the world's largest truck stop, for lunch. After that I talked with Cole for another two hours. We stopped at a rest stop just out of Chicago and stretched out our legs. from there it was a straight run up into Michigan and from there into

Two years ago in fifth grade was a great year until one something happened, something that was not going to make the year better, but make the year worse. I was sitting in my room watching TV when mom yells from the living room, “Kandace! Can you come here please?”. I pause the show and walk out of the room and sit on the couch she looks at her phone and then at me, “ Katelynn and Andrea are moving to Arizona.” she says in a sad voice, My heart stopped. In my head, I just kept thinking It’s a joke, she is just kidding, why would they move so far away? but she wasn’t they were really moving to Arizona, and I had no idea why.

A few days later, our team had started practicing for our first tournament. It was on the following weekend and D.P Todd was hosting. Our couches Jenni Stern, and Jen Brunn were preparing us to play our first game, this game was against the host team. Soon the day of the tournament approached. On the day of the game our whole team was suited up in our uniforms. The game had started and myself, and Gurveet were sitting on the bench, waiting for our turn to go play. Finally we were called up to go play. When we went on our team was leading by about twenty points. I had gone out and felt a relief, and felt this is my home. The basketball court is my home. We had won our first game, beating the host team roughly by thirty points. After this

Starting the day, my sister and I were rushing out of the house to the car, so we sped down the road. The day was steamy and hot, and you could smell the fogginess falling down from the sky. We slowly got out of the car, parked by the activity entrance, we simultaneously glanced at our parents, I could feel the anxiousness spewing from them. Then we picked up the pace and opened the school doors, as I walked in I saw Jordan, a previous varsity player now senior, crumble to the floor

It was a Monday morning in october, a work day. I usually would go to school but I had the day that monday for parent teacher conferences. I was in second grade. Even though I had off of school, my mom still had to go to work. She worked at a private school, which didn't have conferences that day. My alarm went off, and I crawled out of bed. I “Why do I still have to get up early? I don't even have school” I thought, as I dragged myself across the hall to the bathroom. I got myself ready for school, and my mother and I were out the door.

The week went by faster than normal to me because I was so nervous. I was up earlier than usual that morning getting ready for this big day. I dropped my girls off at daycare extra early so I could get to SCTCC early. Reaching SCTCC, I went inside and saw the same older lady at the information desk. I asked her about parking permits as she handed me a bright orange one to hang in my van on my rearview mirror. Making my way back into the school, I walked down a long hall of shiny tile to reach a big long bench with a lot of others waiting to take the

It was a hot summer day when my family and I left our small, stuffy apartment in Boston. We packed all our belonging into a tiny U-haul truck and began our drive to the great state of Wisconsin. Without stopping we drove for what seemed like a whole day till we go the the town of Cleveland, Ohio. There we stopped at Burger King. The food there wasn’t the best, it could never beat mama's homemade lasagna. After that we slept at a nearby Motel 6. I hate sharing a bed with my younger brother Oliver. He was always such a bed hog and never slept still. The next day we continued our journey. It wasn’t as long or as boring as yesterday's but that’s probably because I had found one of my favorite books, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry

It was finally the summer and me, my brother Matias, and my mom were at the airport waiting for boarding of the plane. A couple of hours later we were all standing in the heart of the city, waiting for my aunt to come and pick us

It was a warm, windy morning as I was awake at 6:30 am for my first day of 7th grade. I got ready, put my Id and book bag on and walked out the door. As soon as I walked out the door, I was hit with bright strong and warm rays of the sun. I looked up and there wasn’t a cloud in the sky. It is going to be a good day, I thought to myself as I was getting in my grandma’s car to go to school. I was not exactly excited about school. I was really just excited and nervous because I was starting band this year. When I was in sixth grade and I started learning about the band I thought maybe I should give it a try, and I always wanted to follow my Uncle's footsteps because he started playing clarinet in middle school and went on to play in Tiger Band which is Clemson University's football teams marching band. I did not get a chance to start in 6th grade so I ended up being in 7th grade beginning band. It was super stressful to begin with because I knew nothing about a clarinet or how to read music. My band teacher, Mr.Scott, was really nice and patient with me.

New York City, summer of 2007, I got out of the car and inhaled the stale air. I rushed to the entrance with my luggage and opened the door of the washed out red sky-high building. After my family and I entered the building and we serenely walked over to the elevator and I pushed the button until it flashed luminous red. I was thrilled I was going to see my cousins after such a long time. The last time we were together was when I used to live there. We moved to Massachusetts when I was two years old. I was wondering what this place had in store for me and if this is going to be the best summer vacation or not. But what will happen to me became a scar that will always be with me forever.
