Books I Read
3.5/5
I liked this play better than the last one I read for my monologue research. The characters were all distinct and interacted in a realistic way, so it was easy to read without getting too lost. I was able to predict where things were headed a lot of the time, but overall, I liked it! Lots of female representation.
4/5
I enjoyed this play a
lot. It kept me engaged the entire time. The dialogue was so realistic, I heard every character in my head as separate people. It also played with time in a very "This Is Us" kind of way that let me put the pieces of the puzzle together as I read without it being so overwhelming I got confused and gave up. I'd love to see it performed sometime.
4/5
I read this because it's in the running for one of the fall plays next semester, and it was so much fun! It took fairytales and twisted them in unique ways I've never seen before, not to mention it includes lesbians too. It would be a really imaginative play to stage and fun to watch. It was a little hard to follow at first, but once you got past the first scene, it was easier to understand.
Movies I Watched
LOL, you have nooo time for movies when you're in school and in a musical that rehearses for 30 hours a week.
Quotes I Wrote
Nothing new here, but I have been working on scripts for my summer musical theatre camps for kids, so that's been a lot of fun!
Obsessions I Acquired

How was your February?
So much to comment on . . .
ReplyDeleteI LOVED 9 to 5!! You were fantastic!
No story about the tea at the Vagina Monologues?
I really like how that black and white dress looks with the long cardigan.
Your story about your first party reminds me of Fangirl. :P
Valentines girls' night?? SO PRETTY!!
MUFFIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Did Josh bring bowls for the ice cream? That guy thinks of everything!
Octopus balls. We probably shouldn't call them that. It prompted an entire conversation for us about whether or not Octopi have testicles . . .
I love your hair up and back in that picture of you in the hoodie - there are 2 other girls in the picture with you . . . super cute hair
Love the Roz group photos! I LOVE when women wear men's clothing.
Love the picture of Scout with the toy!! SO FREAKING CUTE!
Fun post! C'mon, March!! Time keeps marching on . . . :P (Sorry. Pun. I blame Josh.)
@Boquinha
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
LOL, noooo. xD
Ha, I'm living Fangirl in real life, just with a little more socialization. ;P
Yes, he did! He was so prepared!
LOL, I could just call them Tako Yaki, but that doesn't really say what they are either . . .
Thank you! It was just my hair from the show, maybe a little flattened after the performance. :P
Ha!
I was hoping to write something worthwhile but I'm distracted by the though of chocolate strawberry ice cream. And you made me aware of a Pulitzer Prize winner that I hadn't known about. So thanks, I'll read it now. Do you have a Spring Break coming up soon? Wait, Coronavirus might ruin that. Keep up the great life you're living!
ReplyDeleteWow! Looks like you've been super busy!
ReplyDeleteI have acquired an obsession with the RENT soundtrack. 😅
Hope you have a marvellous March!
@Jimmy
ReplyDeleteIt was sooo good. You're welcome, I hope you enjoy it! LOL, yes, I'm on spring break now and they extended it for another week, along with classes the week after that being done remotely online. Can't complain about the extra vacation time, but it is unnerving not knowing if/when I'll go back to campus. At least there's more time to read!
@Ivy
Yes I have been, I crammed a lot into the shortest month of the year. xD
That is a fantastic obsession to have! What's your favorite song?
Happy March!
