I know when to stop watching it, but I just want to be on Disney Channel so bad. How do I stop being so obsessed and what is a quick way to build a resume?

Does anyone have any really dramatic monologues for a teen or know where I can find some. Preferably ones that involve crying or something like that (my favorite to act out!)

Usually when I have to do that I am always so 'into' the moment it comes naturally. There have been times when I have had to resort to remembering sad times in my life and putting that into the context of the scene I am in. For instance, when I was playing Tom Wingfield and giving my last monologue about his sister, I thought about my own sister and how I would feel if she were in the same predicement as Tom's sister. Sometimes it's hard to do, but when it works it's very effective.

For a novel. I know for the ones I've read the climax and ending is usually brought around in about 7-10 chapters. I would like to know because I want it to be quick and have a good impact, and not long, boring and drawn out ... but I don't want to to be too quick or too slow. What is a good way to do this in, to wrap up a novel?

This is one I wrote a couple of weeks ago. I'd like to know what y'all think.


The Chess Game

A small, off-white piece moves first,
Advancing on the dark black army,
Hinting at a bigger plan.
The black army moves,
Responding to the sly movements
Of the creamy other player.
Within a few moves,
The obstacles have been removed,
Leaving the heart of the game exposed.
Black takes advantage, moving in,
Wounding the rest of my white army.
I protect the king with all I have left,
But it’s too late—I’ve given you my white king.
Your move.

If I were to start the prologue of a story with a woman telling a story her mother used to tell her as a child (this is fantasy) about how a certain race came into being and then was forced into seclusion, would you want to read on? It is more about a war of power, and someone who wants to eliminate an entire race. Would this be a good opening, or would you not want to read on? I do not trust posting any of it here, or else I would ... so if not, how could I change it? Should it not be told as a "childs tale" and actually told as a real story about a young boy? Or should it be introduced in the book later? This is my first time so I am not quite sure on how to write openings yet, and what is catching to a lot of people ... it's soiunds quite dull when I explain it on here, but it is better on paper.

Any suggestions? Thanks! :)

If you want happiness for a month -- get married.
If you want happiness for a year -- inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime -- help someone else.

I did one lesson in person, and joined this online guitar lesson site, I am just wondering if it is necessary or if you can just learn chords and scales and arpeggios and go from there yourself.

My great grandfather came to the USA from Belgium but I do not exactly know when. I do know that he came here before the records of www.ellisisland.org Is there a website or source that could help me find out when my greatgrandfather came to the United States? Besides ellisisland.org I have information about my grandmother but no information about my great grandfather and grandfather as to when they came to the United States. Thank you for whatever you may send.
