MY MEMORIZED SPEECH: HER MONTHLY VISITOR IS MY WICKED DEMON

Here’s my memorized speech for my Communication 3 course. I got a grade of flat 1.0. Memorable ang memorized speech na to kasi masasabi ko namang deserve ko ang grade ko talaga.hehe. Okay, tama na ang intro ko. Heto na, janjararan!

Classmates, have you had or still experiencing your hell day or hell week?  That day or week you experience that pasan-ko-ang-daigdig feeling? I guess we understand each other.

                Let me share you my hell week. I used to have my hell week. Used to, because I used to have a girlfriend. What’s the connection? I had my hell weeks when it was still us. And now, there’s just she, and me. =(

                I had my hell weeks regularly—regularly because she is regular. Regularly for almost every 28 days for usually seven days.  How would my hell week start? There were signs. Like, we were just happy yesterday and then suddenly, she was not in the mood the next day. You could feel her coldness, hurt by her rudeness, and find yourself asking if you had done anything wrong. When this happened, I start to feel scared. So I would confirm if it was my hell week then by asking her, “Are you okay?” She would answer me, “Meron ako eh.” And all I could react was: (demonstration). So that’s how my hell week starts.

                So what was in my hell week? Just a role playing. I play the role of a slave and she was my master, like in the Feudal times. I would be oppressed and repressed. So I just suppress my feelings.  I could not voice out my opinion. I could never be right. She was always right. So why would I talk? I would not be heard anyway.  There were even instances that she was becoming harsh and irrational (at least for me, or maybe just to me). Like one time, she was not talking to me and not even looking at me.  I got bored because I was ignored, and perhaps a little bit irritated, so I tried to calm myself by playing the rubix cube. Suddenly, she got mad at me and said, “So rubix cube na kaagaw ko sa atensyon mo ngayon?!” I was shocked. She got jealous with a rubix cube? And in the first place, she was the one ignoring me, right? There were even instances that, I could say, she was immature. One hell week, I was scheduled an appointment with my gym instructor. I asked her permission with the softest way of speaking if I could just go to gym instead of accompanying her in her way home to San Fernando. She said it was alright so I went to the gym. After my session, on my way to my dorm, I read her text message sent thirty minutes ago. She said, “So you love those dumbbells more than you love me? I hope you were happy with those dumbbells.” Yes my friends, she got jealous with dumbbells too. Couldn’t she just be happy for me because I was trying to be fit? Didn’t she want a sexy boyfriend?

But I am not complaining; of course not. I actually love my hell week. It was, actually, my chance to show her my love for her. How? When do we usually show our care to our love ones, in bad times, right? So I didn’t leave her in her “bloodiest” times. I didn’t mind her coldness and rudeness. I know she’s just not feeling well because of her period. She did not mean to be harsh to me. I should understand her. I may not understand her pain (of course I don’t experience menstruation). But she actually bears the pain with me. Could there any be sweeter than bearing others’ burden with them?  She always says sorry for her rudeness after her week-long period and thanks me for my understanding and patience. See, I get pogi points after my hell week. =D

                So boys, I have two words for you: understanding and patience. For girls, be sensitive also and learn to appreciate your boyfriend’s effort.
