The Cost of Broadway

Anyone who loves theatre or musical theatre eventually ends up on Broadway. Who knows if it will be on the stage, in the audience, in the pit, or in the crew, but eventually we get there. For most theatre geeks, they see their first Broadway show when they are entering tweendom, where most careers take off (unless you are a true Broadway baby). But... have you ever wondered about the price of theatrical perfection?

Now Entering the Bermuda Triangle

As defined by Wikipedia, the Bermuda Triangle is...

"also known as the Devil's Triangle, is an undefined region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean, where a number of aircraft and ships are said to have disappeared under mysterious circumstances."

Oh no, this is not the one I'm talking about...

Honestly, if you asked most the people in my grade they'd probably say the same thing. There is a minority though, a small minority that knows exactly what I mean when I say I've fallen into the Bermuda Triangle. What is this minority you say?

Party Time

Ugh... Ugh... UGHHHHHH....

Why am I sighing with great emphasis you may ask? <sigh> I forgot to post my Day After Valentine's post before I went to a party.

What have I done. I'm sorry to have disappointed you. I know the drill, dishonor on me, dishonor on my cow, dishonor on my whole family. Why?! It was good, reeeal good. Of course, I can't go back and just edit it or anything because it talked about everything I did on Valentine's Day in a day after perspective. It was fantastic, and now I have failed you. I'm sorry readers, but I do have a surprise for you instead of that post if you'd like! Read on to see my special surprise!

Well I Tried...

Ahem, feel free to sing along to my song that summarizes the previous two weeks.

Right, right turn on the light 

I'm gonna lose my mind tonight

Where'd my homework go?

I hate when there's oh so much,

5 a.m. why am I up?

Where's the cereal bowl?

Quizlet crasher, review snatcher

call me up if you got answers.

Don't be flashy, just stay classy 

why's everyone dressed up?

So raise your glass flag if you were strong, in all these past days!

All my underdogs, we could really be, really be passing our classes,

but how would we know? Study little nerds...

so come on and raise your flag!

I've met only a few people who weren't completely exhausted by the end of this week. Thanks to my new favorite app,Finish., I know exactly what tasks I've completed this week down to the second. From Seussical to Science Fair there was no minute this chica wasn't doing something productive with her life.

Besides Netflix of course, every girl needs a break sometimes. (If you'd like to know, I'm writing this post to a good supply of Gossip Girl.)

I realized that focus, focus, focus is an insane motto for someone who's been stuck in a funk. I can't stand being in a funk, it's crippling. Sitting in a rut is not my ambition and neither is jumping into one. I'm getting out of this as soon as I can, it is break after all! Adios AP Geo, bonsoir biology, and see you later Leadership, Grace is going on break!

Tonight is my final night of exhaustion till break ends! All that's left is an incredible essay, a fantastic FRQ, and several radical reading notes to be written! Oh and don't forget my non-existent date for Valentine's Day, I can't cancel that again!

Till next time comrades, you know you love me,

xoxo

Seussical the Musical Part Two

Oh the thinks you can think when you think about Seuss!

Anything's possible when you make a collage about it! 

What? No, I didn't just blog about Seussical last week... Oh wait... I did... Oh well, I've already started so it's too late to stop. Anyways, I am currently writing you all from a comfortable couch in my cozy home after a long and tiring three-ish months of rehearsals, tech, and of course, performances! My feet are killing me. Seriously, Gracie is in desperate need of a foot massage. Not to mention, I'm exhausted. I may have mentioned this before, but theatre is harder than it looks. Guess we know who's sleeping in tomorrow? Not me. I know, bummer right? Since the show is over I am now free to do whatever I please (which of course means more theatre I mean c'mon what did you expect).
