I'm really no good at speech-making. Normally, I get so nervous that I faint or run
away; or sometimes I even get sick.
But you really didn't need to know that. Um, but, I'm not so My
father helped me. Earlier this evening, I had every intention of giving up my claim to
the throne.
faintAnd my mother helped me by telling me that it was ok, and by supporting me like she
has my entire life.
But, then I wondered how I'd feel after abdicating my role as Princess of Genovia.
Would I feel relieved? Or would I feel sad? And then I realized how many stupid
times a day I used the word "I". In fact, probably all I ever do is think about myself.
And how lame is that when there's, like, 7 billion other people out there on the planet
and when –
Oooohhh. Sorry, sorry. I'm going too fast.
But then I thought, if I cared about the other 7 billion out there instead of just me,
that's probably a much better use of my time. See, if I were Princess of Genovia then
my thoughts and the thoughts of people smarter than me would be much better heard,
and just maybe those thoughts could be turned into actions.
So this morning when I woke up I was Mia Thermopolis. But, now, I choose to be
forevermore, Amelia Mignonette Thermopolis Renaldi Princess of Genovia.
我确实对于做演讲不在行。通常,我都会紧张的晕过去或者逃跑;甚至有时我还会感到恶心。
但你们是在不需要知道这些。嗯,但是,我再也不害怕了……再也不。我父亲给了我帮助。
大清早,我还想着放弃即位呢。
而且妈妈也帮助了我,她告诉我会没事的,就好像她对我的一生了如指掌一样支持着我。
可是后来我就在想,是不是我不做吉诺维亚公主,我就会感觉解脱了呢?或者我会伤心?然后我便意识到我好多次傻傻的称自己为“我”。实际上,或许过去我所做的一切只考虑到了我自己。这种做法多么错误啊,想想这个星球上还有70亿人,想想……
哦,对不起,对不起。我说得太快了。
但后来我想,我去关心另外那70亿人而不仅仅是我自己,我可能会更加充分的利用我的时间。瞧,如果我是吉诺维亚公主,那么我的想法以及那些不我聪明的人的想法就更容易被大家了解到了,也许那些想法最终会成为实际行动呢。所以今天早上当我醒来时我还是米娅·瑟马普利斯。而现在,我选择永远成为吉诺维亚的Amelia Mignonette Thermopolis Renaldi 公主。
