Now Playing;; That's All- Darren Criss
Oh man...the things that have happened since I took an unplanned break from Polyvore. Where do I even begin? It's been nearly an entire year. I feel so much OLDER than the girl who made the 2 second band set before Christmas. God knows I've done and seen A LOT.
What have I done? Let me count the things...
- Assistant Stage Managed my first musical; How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying. That was an AMAZING experience, I learned a lot and got a lot of recognition and respect, something my prior-shy self really needed to feel comfortable in my group of friends that included every high school grade.
-For almost two months *drumroll* I had a boyfriend. CRAZY, RIGHT. Late March and the entirety of April were the best times ever. It was one of those feelings where everything's going RIGHT, you know? I had a boyfriend who, and I still think this, really is the best I could ever do in high school. He and I originally bonded over our love for Batman and superheroes in general. He was a total gentleman, hilarious, an AMAZING once-in-a-lifetime singer, and arguably the most attractive guy at my school. Long story short, he was my first boyfriend and literally, AS THE SHOW ENDED, he broke up with me.
And like the girl I am, months later I'm 90% over it. It was a really sucky situation, and I personally see it as a "Nothing I can do to make it better or worse" scenario, which is awful. He's in college now, while I'm in my first months as a junior. Hip hip hooray. I'd be lying if I said that I didn't miss him, but I'm trying to get him out of my head.
-Met John Green, my literary role model, and role model in general
-Went to WARPED TOUR, saw We Are The In Crowd, Mayday Parade, New Found Glory, Junior Doctor, All Time Low, and Sleeping With Sirens. I'm so ready for this year if the line up's good.
-Started taking creative writing and Study of Shakespeare classes, which has made my high school educational experience at least 60% happier than it was.
This is all I can think of for now. I've missed this place. Hopefully I'll stick around for a bit :)
