Performance Majors, you know you probably relate to all of the things on this list. I don't think I've ever met another breed of human that can manage to eat a sandwich without messing up makeup, rehearse lines, AND do your hair all at the time. We're a talented crew, but hot diggity dang life can be difficult! You gotta admit it though...our lives are SO FUN and we wouldn't want it any other way! Well, maybe more sleep...maybe.

1. You see the inside of the theatre/music building more than you own eyelids.

Sleep is for the weak...and I envy them.

2. Your car isn't just a car. It's a concert hall.

So is your shower, bathtub, bedroom, etc.

3. You eat at really random times.

You have a late lunch/dinner at 4:45 p.m. before rehearsal and then you have a real meal at 11:00 p.m. after rehearsal...we're the epitome of good eating choices, people.

4. You are OBSESSED with Hamilton right now.

Oh yeah, we're all on that Hamilton train and we are never getting off. #NotThrowingAwayMyShot

5. Homework = hours in the practice room.

Our homework isn't something that can be done in the library or the comfort of our bed.

6. You can make coffee and a meal in less than 10 minutes.

You can probably eat that whole meal in about 5 minutes too...

7. Your whole life is one big costume change.

You start out in a cute outfit for class, change into leotard & tights for dance, then into performance attire if you have to perform in voice class. If not, you get to put on loungewear for a little white. Then you change into your rehearsal clothes and, for the grand finale, you get to put on pajamas.

8. You can eat a meal without messing up your stage makeup.

I can definitely down a chicken sandwich without so much as smudging my red lipstick. I mean, I think I am doing life right.

9. When we have a break during the day, you will find us napping.

On those rare occasions in which we have NOTHING to do, we're probably definitely napping. Anywhere we can catch a snooze, we will.

10. Sick is not in our vocabulary.

Nope. We don't even think about it.

11. But when we do get sick, we get SICK.

And it happens during hell week. Go big or go home, right?

12. We usually have cough drops in every bag we own.

And if you don't, the odds are very good that someone else in the cast does.

13. We don't get to do anything on weeknights.

Parties, mixers, school-sponsored events...nothing.

14. "I can't...I have rehearsal." is one of the Top 10 phrases we say that most.

Social event? Sorority event? Wedding? Birth of your first born? Nah, I can't...I have rehearsal.

15. Coffee is an all-day beverage.

Doctors say "you shouldn't drink caffeine after 2 p.m.", and to that we say "LOLOLOLOLOL."

16. Our cars are littered with water bottles.

All half-empty, mind you.

17. And music binders/vocal selection books.

I have three huge binders that live in my car at all times. You know, just in case anyone decides to discover me and ask me to sing for them. Always prepared.

18. We don't go anywhere without a water bottle.

We basically double-fist coffee and water all day. We know what's good!

19. You always have your cell phone charger with you.

Most days we won't be in our room AT ALL between the hours of 8 a.m. and 12 a.m.

20. You eat, sleep, and BREATHE your craft.

It's all you can think about and it's all you want. And you couldn't be happier.
