It’s been a long ass time since I was on here but I’d just like to say thank you. I graduated high school this week and couldn’t have done it without the love and support on this platform. During the worst year of my life I turned to tumblr to create a community I desperately needed and it worked.

Thank you for talking me down when I was on the verge of a breakdown. Thank you for the funny asks that I still look back on today. Thank you for letting me share my ideas. Thank you for celebrating my birthday when no one else did. Thank you for supporting me during the hardest period of my life.

Thank you for caring :)

Signing off for one last time,

some of you never had an intense hyperfixation over a musical that you memorized every lyrics on the cast album, every dialogue on the libretto, and every tune, melody, and harmony in the soundtrack that you can recognize it in a millisecond and it shows

re: singing in the shower

so i know that there are some musical songs that aren’t easy to sing especially while you’re soaking wet (no) but there are some that, while in the shower, when you sing sounds absolutely amazing

(in chinese we have a word for this it’s called 爽 but i have NO idea how to translate that)

so i figured i’d make things easier by listing out the best musical songs to sing in the shower, a top ten buzzfeed article

solo songs:

  • michael in the bathroom
  • dead girl walking (sorta solo)
  • waving through a window
  • words fail
  • apex predator (sorta solo)
  • i’d rather be me
  • santa fe
  • good kid
  • i’m breaking down
  • wait for it
  • you’ll be back/what comes next
  • freeze your brain
  • loser geek whatever

not solo songs but can still be managed by one person (tried and true):

  • more than survive
  • four jews in a room bitching
  • the thrill of first love
  • sincerely, me
  • requiem
  • good for you
  • only us
  • beautiful
  • candy store
  • the campfire song
  • drive
  • bring on the monsters
  • the world will know
  • once and for all
  • cell block tango

you’d need an ensemble in the bathroom but if you really try hard enough and you don’t have asthma:

  • non-stop
  • the smartphone hour
  • this had better come to a stop
  • falsettoland
  • carrying the banner
  • meant to be yours
  • but mostly non-stop

if you know spanish:

  • in the heights
  • blackout

if you’re currently undergoing puberty:

  • march of the falsettos

((feel free to add to the list in the reblogs

What has happened since I disappeared?

1. I finally came out to my parents as trans and was met with almost immediate support. This included going back to therapy and looking into medication. I’ve been on anti depressants since August 2017 which has drastically changed my overall happiness as well as my relationship with my parents and sister who have become the most important people in my life.

2. Junior year was a learning curve for me when it came to balancing my life. I was able to find a happy medium between stressed and happy. I was even able to go back to theater as myself, Quinten, and was welcomed back with open arms to a family that always cared about me no matter my gender.

3. Legal name + gender change! My transition hasn’t been sunshine and rainbows and I’ve had to deal with many cases of transphobia that threatened my safety at work and school. I’ve really grown from these fearful experiences and hope to help younger students when it comes to dealing with real world lgbtphobia. And along those lines I became president of my school’s gsa! I’m super excited to help people my age and younger through a safe club.

4. I’ve made three really solid friendships...one online, two in my town. Lily, Percy, and Alice (these aren’t their real names) mean so much to me. Percy and I can talk for hours on the phone or just sit their quietly or play dnd and it’s nice to have that stability even from states away. Alice and I will sit down and write while talking about fandoms we love or serious topics about life. And while most of the fandom topics usually end with me asking “why would you make me sad?” I’ve come to enjoy them. And lily? We have the most active adventures. We geocach while hiking, make videos, walk in muddy riverbeds, paint like we have no care in the world, or even just lay down and listen to music. All these people have become my rocks and I’ve let them know that I do love them.

5. I did two shows and am working on number three (Crazy for You)! In winter of 2017 I was in Mary Poppins as Robertson Ay (my first named role!) and became very close to my scene partner Giselle. And in summer of 2018 I got to be Peter Pan (one of my dream roles) and Giselle (the heart face) was my Wendy! So she’s become a very important person to me and knows I love her to death. And Mia (rainbow face) who was my Jane and is so damn funny and together we can kick anyone’s ass in Mario Party or get stupidly existential or talk about our weird stoner friends.

Here’s some pictures of Peter Pan

6. My friends mom bought us tickets to Dear Evan Hansen. It was amazing and maybe I did cry for two hours straight as soon as Connor showed up but it was a much needed cry. Seeing the show marked the end of an era in my life and I’m aware that sounds dramatic but it’s completely true. I saw myself in Connor enough to change and it broke my heart to see that he never would have gotten the pure satisfaction of improvement. I know he’s a fictional character but I genuinely learned so much about myself after devoting time to understand him.

..other than that...nothing...I’ve found and lost happiness but grown so much as a person. I’m happy to be back and this time spread some more positivity.

Thanks for reading and I’ll see you in my notifs,
