8 Signs That You Are Obsessed With Broadway
Huffington Post

Although I am not a talented singer, dancer, actor or artist, growing up, going to see a Broadway show was my absolute favorite thing to do. The bright changing lights, vibrant creative costumes, and loud music creates an excitement that you cannot help but be pulled into. When intermission hits, you may have even forgot that you were in the theater watching a show, and you awake from the trance with chills and awe. The details, talent and energy that goes into making a Broadway production truly blows me away every time I am lucky enough to go see one. Broadway is different from my everyday pop, rap, and rave music but it’s still my favorite genre. If you are secretly as nerdy as I am when it comes to Broadway, there is a good chance you can relate to these typical scenarios.

1. You listen to Hamilton on repeat everyday while walking to class, driving, and on all traveling occasions.

Some of the songs are so intense, that you occasionally feel you are right in the middle of the American revolution. I have had many experiences where I was caught off guard by someone waving to me on the street because I had headphones in blasting some Hamilton, almost in tears, adrenaline pulsing.


2. You’ve figured out that listening to songs from "Le Mis" while working out is key.

Nothing says finish that mile strong like a lead up to the French Revolution.

3. Listening to "Legally Blonde" before going out is a must.

There’s something about belting out “Oh My God You Guys” that puts you in a good mood every single time.


4. Fluctuating the volume, while secretly listening to Fiddler On The Roof because although the music is amazing, you don’t want the people walking or sitting close to you to accidentally overhear and give you one super weird look.

5. Not being able to stop talking about Hamilton to anyone and everyone who has seen, listened to, or showed even the slightest bit of interest in the show.

The conversations could go on for hours. #Non-stop

6. Daydreaming about what it would be like if you actually had a good voice and the farthest possibility of starring in a Broadway show.

If you haven’t pretended you were Elphaba, Glinda, Elle, Angelica, Jefferson, Simba, Tzeitel, Eponine, Elder Cunningham, Evan Hansen, or Ariana Grande in 13, you are probably lying to yourself.


7. Secretly waiting for and loving the Tony’s way more than all other award shows.

Come on, live performances from the best of Broadway plus Neil Patrick Harris, it doesn’t get better than that.


8. Reserving a large duration of road trip time to listen to an entire show’s soundtrack in order to fully re-enjoy the experience.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
