when brainstorming in class today, i wrote about my little Monkey. i know this is going to sound wierd but, one of my best friends is a mother, monkey is her daughter. yeah, i know she isnt even my child, but i feel like she is important in my life and her birth was an important event. Im sure that if i wrote it all out i would have learned something thinking back on that experience, and i believe it could be quite entertaining for the reader.
otherwise, i can't really think of anything else to write about so, ima have to go with that.
here's what i wrote in class today:
I have a very good friend, a best friend, whom I have known for many years and experienced many things with. We had known each other since the fifth grade, but in our junior year something happened that no one would have expected. "I'm pregnant,"she told me. I didn't know what else to do so I laughed. I am fully aware that it is an asshole move, but i was so shocked and scared for her that laughter is the only response i had. yeah, its not like i was the 'prego' but being good friends ,i was directly influenced by her situation. She was part of a big ol' contraversy. My dear friend joined what we called...
thats all i wrote so far. its goin ta be a long memoir.
ps. sorry for wasting your time.

Hi Katie:
ReplyDeleteIs her name really Monkey? That might be harder to handle than Apple. If you're going to write about a friends pregnancy, ultimately, you have to reflect and imagine about how your own life would change if you had to be a parent. Otherwise, it's a story about someone else, mainly. Just some food for thought.
