A guide every theater junkie should follow!

Favorite Broadway Musicals
Nicole Karan

Give my regards to Broadway...well you should remember the rest if you are a theater junkie like myself. I have been in love with musicals as long as I can remember. Every time you step into the theater it is an escape for the good life to get lost in the music. In my time I have seen a lot of Broadway musicals and here are my top favorites that you should see as well (Some of these may have closed on Broadway but I have to mention them!)

1. Wicked.

What happened before Dorothy dropped in? This is the story about the two witches of Oz and their unlikely friendship and how they defy gravity and have been changed for good. Remember no one mourns the wicked.

2. An American In Paris.

When the war is over an soldier moves to Paris to dream, and he finds a love interest and he dances the night away. This show is an amazing adaptation of the art of dance where the show is told through song and dance.

3. Jersey Boys.


Follow along with the untold story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons where they go through the controversies of love and life on the road with the band that gave us high pitched harmonies and constantly have us saying Oh What a Night!

4. Hamilton.

Lin Manuel Miranda wrote this show about the former president Alexander Hamilton and the person who will kill him someday. Each song is a rap ballad that helps move the story along just like his previous show on Broadway "In the Heights". I suggest you plan your trip in advance to see this show because tickets are being accepted well into 2017.

There are so many shows to see while you go out in the city but these shows that I have mentioned are can't miss in my book. Seeing a show is a privilege in itself.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
