1. Marilyn Monroe : I choose Marilyn because I have always been interested to learn about her. This way I
can learn what I want to about Marilyn and it give me a good grade. I wanted to learn more about
Marilyn’s history and what might have ever happened to her. This project was really fun and interesting
to do. I am glad I picked Marilyn Monroe. I liked to learn about what made her famous and what kept
her famous even though she is gone. It was very interesting to research her and find out stuff about her!
If I had the choice to change my person if I wanted to I defiantly wouldn’t.
facebook Template :
I picked this because basically everybody knows how to read a facebook page. Also a facebook page is
fun and creative. I like to have fun with stuff like this. You get to pick their profile picture, how many
friends they have, how many pictures they have, how many inboxed messages. It’s got a lot of
information on it too. You can learn a lot of things about her personal life in my facebook page for
Marilyn Monroe. Everything wrote in the page is from my personal life cards so it’s a lot about her
personal life.
Suicide Note:
I tried to be creative and make a suicide note she might have left when she died. The reason I picked this
is because a lot of people think that she might have attempted suicide. I put stuff in it about the bad
things in her life like things that happened to her when she was little. You can learn a lot about her
younger life in this suicide note. If she did commit suicide then she probably would have left a suicide
note and I had to think about some of the things she might have said in it. So I basically had to think how
Marilyn would have.
Haiku:
So I thought about things that happened to her in her life and broke them down into small things. For
example, the first line says “I was famous”. What I have behind that is that she was well known by a lot
of people and everything she did was known by all of her fans. There was that much stress on Marilyn.
The second line says “I was never really loved”. I said this because everybody she got married to ended
up in a divorce. Also she never really had a family because she went from house to house so she didn’t
have a family to love her. Finally the third line says “I was beaten bad” because she had a lot of
memories just from getting beat. Almost every house she went to she ended up getting beaten and
raped. She had a lot of bad background with families that she came to.
