They would see me for what I could be and think I was beautiful. Was it this guy? Or maybe this one? I never knew.īut even if they couldn't take me all the way, like Marilyn, they would somehow believe in me just enough. So I started goin' out real young and I was always secretly lookin' for who was gonna discover me. I heard that Marilyn Monroe was discovered in a soda shop and I thought for sure it could be like that. It made me happy to think that all these people just didn't know yet who I was gonna be. So whenever I was down, I would just escape into my mind, to my other life, where I was someone else. They said I was dreaming, but back then, I believed it wholeheartedly. So I dreamed about it for hours.Īs the years went by, I learned to stop sharin' this with people. And I guess you could call me a real romantic because I truly believed that one day, they'd come true. When I was little, I thought for sure, one day, I could be a big big star. However, that blue represents millions of dollars and countless jobs and so it’s sort of comical how you think that you’ve made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry when, in fact, you’re wearing the sweater that was selected for you by the people in this room. Then it filtered down through the department stores and then trickled on down into some tragic “casual corner” where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. And then I think it was Yves St Laurent, wasn’t it, who showed cerulean military jackets?Īnd then cerulean quickly showed up in the collections of eight different designers. You’re also blindly unaware of the fact that in 2002, Oscar de la Renta did a collection of cerulean gowns. You go to your closet and you select out, oh I don’t know, that lumpy blue sweater, for instance, because you’re trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back.īut what you don’t know is that that sweater is not just blue, it’s not turquoise, it’s not lapis, it’s actually cerulean. I see, you think this has nothing to do with you. Which female monologue do you think packs the biggest punch? Let us know by voting thumbs up or thumbs down.
