Background monologue for a friend's short film project

My friend asked me to write a 100 words-ish monologue for her film's project. I missed the point of it entirely (hey, Communication! You and I should totally get to know each other sometime!) so this was unused but hey. For something dashed off in a couple minutes I think it's alright :-)


Every day I pry my eyes open, eat breakfast and march off to school. I hang out with friends in the same old park or at the cinema where the movies all seem to be interchangeable in their predictability. I come home to where the view hasn’t changed since before my parents can remember, I eat, I slave over my homework, and then collapse in bed. My days cycle through this routine with a repetition that rivals the seasons for regularity and duplications of each other. When I graduate I can go into business or …Is this all I can do?



Here is the finished film. Like my rooftop view? Too bad the trapdoor's always locked. Sigh.
Notice the monologue I ended up helping to rewrite. :-)
