I’m really really bad about responding to text messages, honestly I always have been. Emails too. I get them, read them, think about replying to them, and depending on how much work it would take to form a complete response (i.e. would I have to ask my mom for permission/information, would I have to confirm with another friend) I don’t respond as quickly as I should/I don’t end up responding at all which is thoroughly annoying for everyone involved because if I take too long, opportunities are missed, and if I don’t reply I feel like a gigantic bitch and I don’t really know why I can’t just respond from the start with an “I don’t know”, or “Hold on, let me check”. It’s probably some kind of deep-rooted issue I have with being in control of my life/schedule combined with a desperate need to put on a front of being a well composed and intelligent person, but personally, I think it’s more of my perfectionistic undertones shining through. Really the main point is that I need to start learning how to ask for help and admit I am wrong/do not completely understand. Also learning to reply to text messages would be swell. Wow I’m sorry about this completely unrequested/uncalled for/unscheduled rant like, seriously.
Once you’ve been tagged you have to say 5 nice things about yourself publicly and then tag it to 10 of your favourite followers (not back to me, I did it already). Thinking good thoughts about yourself is hard but it will make you feel better so give it a go, for the sake of spreading positivity! (✿◠‿◠)
So I guess I got tagged in this twice by equilibrious and whocouldhavepredicted like 84760983 years ago, but because I’m a literal piece of shit and don’t follow my tag, I didn’t see it until just now. So sorry… Imma do it now.
- I’m a good writer
- I’m a good singer
- I’m very academically clever
- I’m a hella fast and intuitive reader
- I have nice hair sometimes
so, yeah. I tag magnssen, luciferisourking, rongasm, fleshslinky, phyl-intheblank, greggasaurusrex, sphealing-in-the-tardis, donewithyour-shit, courtthisdisaster, and lunelily
OOH! YAY! I’m so excited! No one ever tags me to do these things. Hmm.. Lettuce see..
1. I have a tabby cat named Freckles. He doesn’t like people. Or dogs. Or going outside… or really anything… He’s quite posh.
2. I play piano by ear
3. I’m an insomniac.
4. My favorite music artists are Charlene Kaye, Amy Winehouse, Maroon 5, and Five for Fighting
5. I like to write things, but most of the time, I don’t like to let people see them.
6. I’m a class A nerd. Like seriously, I do homework at lunch, and thoroughly enjoy learning, and classes and such.
7. I want to go to New York, and study musical theatre, and biology.
8. Ever since I started picking out my own clothes, I’ve always worn mismatched socks.
9. I’m a borderline ridiculous cuddle whore.
10. As proud as I am of myself, and my accomplishments, I hate being set aside, or thrown into the center because of them. I don’t know, it sounds a bit strange, but I hate being stereotyped because of roles I get, or classes I take, and it makes me uncomfortable to talk about it sometimes.I know, It sounds super weird, but it makes me feel judged. Ugh, dammit, I promised I wouldn’t rant… I need to work on that..
Anywhoodle, those were some random ass facts to ease your burning mind.

Right!! Ummm something I could never forget about… Omg the time during 45 Seconds From Broadway rehearsal when I was eating cheerios while we were blocking act one, and the director was working something with the really awful girl playing Meghan and my friend Jared was making dumb faces at me from across the stage. He gestured at me to throw a cheerio into his mouth, and we really weren’t doing anything, so I did and hE CAUGHt iT from like 40 ft. away and it was amazing
Tony Nominations Thoughts
LET ME HAVE A MOMENT OKAY SORRY ABOUT MY OBSESSION W BROADWAY BUT IMMA BOUT TO LET ER RIP K COOL
OKaY so first of all, Hamilton broke the record for most nominations (16 like holy FUCK) which is totally expected because of the quickly established, highly involved fanbase as well as the unbelievable and unprecedented quality of the show itself. Now don’t get me wrong, I genuinely do think Hamilton is fantastic and I totally understand and agree with the success it has been met with, but it just makes me sad that some of the other great new shows that came out this year are being overshadowed and forgotten about in all the whirlwind Hamilton created. Like the Waitress score is definitely my favorite new composition. The talent of Kimiko Glenn, Jessie Mueller, and Keala Settle is unmatched. And I know I’ve had some things to say about Andrew Lloyd Webber, but school Of Rock is a great show. And Alex Brightman, whom I’ve loved for AGES, finally got a chance to show how truly phenomenal he is in this role that’s perfect for him. And tuck everlasting wasn’t even nominated for anything (I mean costume design doesn’t really do their performance justice) and they have been building and reshaping the score and book for years, just as long as Lin Manuel. What I’m trying to say is that these shows are SO worthy of respect and admiration, but it kind of feels like Hamilton is taking that away a little bit.
ANYWAY so here are some things I’m SUPER fucking pumped about.
QUEEN LAURA BENANTI MY DREAM WOMAN is nommed for She Loves Me and I’m so happy for her because she’s so so so good.
Spring Awakening was nominated for best revival, and honestly I’m not sure how great their chances are but I genuinely believe that this was one of the most powerful revivals to ever hit Broadway. The ASL was so flawlessly and beautifully woven into the plot and characterization and it actually changed people with disabilities and people who had never previously understood disabilities. Ali Stroker became the first person in a wheelchair on Broadway, and almost everyone in the cast made their Broadway debut.
Michael Arden was nominated for best direction and he is honestly SO SO SO deserving. He’s so passionate and inspiring and his words change people. If he doesn’t win… Aw man, if he doesn’t win it’s gonna be a mistake.
I’m really pumped to see all the performances, especially from tuck and waitress.
Okay I’ve beaten this to death and I’m definitely talking to myself but this has been a nice catharsis. Cool bye ✌️
