Random Pet Peeve
When people say “Happy new years.” New years? It’s only one new year… unless you’re being generous and wishing me well for the following years to come.
Or “I’m sad I can’t go out on new years.”
You can’t go out on new years? What about old years?
New year’s! NEW YEAR’S!!! You’re talking about the day: new year’s...
Ryan's Mom: So are you a gamer too, like Ryan?
My Brother: Nooot really. I don't want to get too invested in video games—
Me: Liar, you're a total Starcraft nerd.
My Brother: Ok, besides that...

MetLife Lady: Do you have any allergies?
Me: Yes.
MetLife Lady: What are you allergic to?
Me: HAHAHAHAHA
This morning I poked my head out the door to feel the temperature. Right as I did that, a girl walked by, which scared me and I jumped about foot in the air. It was an extremely noticeable twitch too. Even though she was on the phone, she turned and looked at me weird. I said hi, and promptly shut the door.
Next time, I’m peeking through the blinds to make sure no one’s around to...

This was the exact conversation between me and my mother after I auditioned for Oklahoma…
Mom: You’re home late. Where were you? Me: I was at an audition. I tried out for the school musical. Mom: WHAT?! WHAT ABOUT YOUR SATs?!?!?!?!
(Please note, at this point I had already taken 3 SATs and was...
This past weekend, I auditioned for Spring Awakening and Suessical at Barksdale Theater. I thought it was the craziest, most nerve-wrecking thing I’d ever done in my life. But then I remembered, I do plenty of crazy things. Some people get their kicks jumping out of planes and swimming with sharks… I get mine auditioning and applying to random things. Such as:

Me: No!!!
