So, i hadn't paid a visit to my lovely park in the last few days because i haven't had time. So today i decide to go down there. I'm walking down the street, mostly staring at my feet and i get to the basketball court part of the park and i look up and my first thought is "whoa, it's really sunny" so i look over and realize they CUT DOWN MY TREE! Yes, my very favorite tree. Sure, i hadn't realized how much I loved it up until this moment. But the park is so empty without it. Why do they keep cutting down the trees? You know, everyone’s always going on about “save the trees!” and all that jazz, but then they chop them down? Right in the park? There’s like three dead tree stumps now. And when I sit on my swing and look out at the field…it looks like…a flat ground of NOTHING! I hate it! I was seriously thinking about writing a little “I HATE YOU, STUPID TREE CUTTER!” note and slapping it on the stump but I decided against it..for now. Actually, I’m still thinking about it. But it won’t bring my tree back! *cries* Seriously, even if I dug up the old dead stump and planted a new tree there, it would never ever grow as big as the last tree did. Or at least not in my lifetime. And heck, no future children are going to give a darn if there’s a tree there or not, because they won’t even be able to miss the old one. Ah, well. I suppose there’s not much I can do besides writing a note. God, my poor tree. I could just cry, I could. I’m pretty sure we named that tree too…was it named travis? I think it was! Oh, travis! Why did you have to go?!
HOLY MITTENS. Crazy moment. So in drama we’re supposed to find monologues and I just read over that last paragraph and..wouldn’t that make a lovely monologue? Although I couldn’t do it, because it sounds exactly like me because it IS me.. anyhoo, I’m off to go cry. Toodles.
