So, college is really busy! I've discovered new musicals and made new friends.
Okay, so I am just going to start with the friends. Most of the friends I've made have come from my acting class because theatre kids bond with each other. There's some people I could live without, but don't we all have people like that in our lives? But I've made a few good friends already, probably mostly the people in my group for Hamlet (we're performing on Friday and I'm playing Ophelia). We just all really like each other and it's really fun to work with them because there's this amazing element of compromise and wanting to make our performance the best we can, and it's just super easy to get along with all of them.
Okay, musicals. So far this semester, I've really fallen in love with Heathers, Spring Awakening, and Jersey Boys. I'll admit that I'm a little late to the Heathers party, but when the craze was happening, I was in France and not really paying a lot of attention to stuff happening here, so now I'm just catching up and I absolutely love it and I just need more of it in my life. I've liked Spring Awakening for a really long time, but I finally decided to pay it the attention it deserves and I am totally in love with this musical. Like, it's so raw and beautiful and I realize that both Heathers and Spring Awakening have high-school age characters, and considering that I've just graduated from high school, they're both relatable shows, and they're both really excellent.
And I really fell in love with Jersey Boys this summer when I got to see it in Contis. I don't really know why I love it so much, but I really do, and that's all I have to say on the matter right now.
That's all for now, I guess!
Peace out!
