Do I Seem That Bitter?

My Voice for the Stage teacher assigned us monologues to work on. We work on the same piece for the entire semester. Here’s mine:

“You think of me as the girl you used to know, grown older. But I’m not. I’m different, I’m changed. Precautions : Kamagra is an anti-impotence pills must be practiced only by the levitra prescription ED sufferer. But the pills work in an you can look here viagra online stores hour. Most men report that they greatly aid them in treating premature ejaculation and in answering how do I last longer. sildenafil prescription It not only boosts up our self confidence but also keeps us going against all odds. cialis for woman Some sort of flame seems to have burned out. And now, I’m just cold, and old, and empty hearted.”

(This monologue is from the play “Plenty” by David Hare)

Is someone trying to tell me something? Do I really actually seem that washed up and played out? I mean, I know it’s been a while since I’ve “made contact” (can you think of a lamer euphemism for sex?) with anyone (salsa just doesn’t cut it)…but does it show? A woman in the class came up to me after the first time I performed it and told me that I was VERY believable. She then went on to say that she was SO GLAD, our teacher didn’t assign this monologue to her.

Are things actually worse than they seem?

I know on some level, that I am single and fabulous. The part of me that feels cold and old and empty hearted, felt that way when I was 18…

Still…should I be scared?

Just for today, I can go to acting class.
