Hii! My name is Sarah and obviously I lovvveeee writing. I'm planning on using this blog as a way to put my thoughts out there without having to be so serious about it all. I'll talk about everything from my favorite music and movies, to how I'm adapting to living far away from home. I'm excited to see where this goes, and I look forward to seeing your feedback! <3

My top musicals:

I woke up this morning with “I Don’t Need Your Love” from Six stuck in my head, so now I’m going to show you guys my favorite musicals. 

#1: Ride The Cyclone: 

I know I know, it’s a basic #1 but it’s so fire. 

This musical follows the story of a group of choir kids who tragically died after rollercoaster carts derailed. They have to play a game in the afterlife which decides who gets to come back alive. 

Favorite song: It’s not a game (it’s just a ride)   

#2: 21 Chump Street:

It’s only like 15 minutes but it’s so freaking good… I swear it’s not just because of Anthony Ramos. 

This is about a boy named Justin falling in love with a girl named Niomi. She turns out to be an undercover cop, looking for drug dealers in schools. We get to see the lengths Justin goes to just to have Niomi 

Favorite song: The Money 

#3: Hamilton:

A few months ago, this would have been the #1, but honestly, I’m kind of falling out of my obsession. Still a masterpiece. 

Hamilton is about the 17-1800’s, focusing on Alexander Hamilton, Eliza Hamilton, Aarron Burr, and more. It is a mix of comedy, action, and emotional plot. This is also referred to as “Lin-Manuel’s masterpiece.”

Favorite song: That Would Be Enough

 

#4: Six The Musical:

I just listened to all the songs on the album, and it’s actually so good.

Six is based on the 6 ex-wives of King Henrey VIII. They retell the side of the story that we never really hear. Their chorography is also peak. 

favorite song: Take A Bow

 

#5: Trevor The Musical

I watched this many times and I’m trying to convince myself it isn’t good, but the story just makes me cry every time.

Trevor the Musical is about a boy coming to terms with his identity, and trying to live through all of his emotions while also keeping it a secret. When his secret does get spilled, he goes through a…. well let’s say “rough patch,” however it all works out in the end. 

Favorite song: This Is Weird 

#6: The Heathers 

Okay now look, I know it’s super low on the list on some people on here are gonna get me, however, its mostly just because I have never actually watched the musical for it. I’ve listened to the soundtrack though!

I genuinely have no clue what the plot of this is, but I will say that it is primarily based on the three Heathers and Veronica. 

Favorite song: Seventeen

 

#7: The greatest Showman

Okay, okay, this is the last one. Look I really love this musical but it’s at #7 because at my old school we did a TGS halftime show for band, and it was so annoying throwing a flag up to “THIS IS THE GREATEST SHOW,” for months on end.

I think that like everyone has seen this, however for the ones that haven’t, this is a musical following the stories of a man who wants to become rich to help his family but faces many struggles to get there.

Favorite song: A Million Dreams

 

Alright guys, that was my last one for this blog. Feel free to put your opinions or some musical suggestions down below!

Thank you, guys, for reading, see ya next time! <3 

First Blog! :D

Hiiii! My name is Sarah and I’m a junior literary. I loveeee color guard, hanging out with my friends, watching musicals and movies, and listening to music.

I am soooo excited to start posting on blogspace and see where this leads. I am planning on using my blogs as a way to express my thoughts and like not annoy my friends since I talk a lot… 

My blogs are probably not going to have a set tone or whatever, I’m just going to type out my thoughts and see what gets the most traction tbh.. Like if I want to wake up and talk about how bummy my math class was I’ll talk about that, but if I wake up and want to rank every single Hamilton song, (act I and II BOTHH,) I’ll do that.

Oh, another thing I’ll probably use this for is to get the “scraps” of writing that I have out of my notebook and out on some platform. The reasoning behind that is because if I never put it somewhere I’ll never know if it’s something worth exploring, y’know? 

Also, I have no clue how long to make this so bear with me!

A little bit more about me is:

  1. I’m from Shannon, Mississippi, and I’m proud of it no matter how much bad everyone hears about it.
  2. I am literally obsessed with learning about bugs.
  3. I’m currently reading 3 books. (If he had been with me, Why we broke up, All the bright places.)
  4. God is my rock, and I will probably write about my beliefs here as well. 
  5. I love all kinds of music… except country… It’s just not my cup of tea.
  6. I will in fact be bringing up my friends a lot. 
  7. My favorite movie is “The Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind.”
  8. My favorite book is “Eleanor and Park.” GUYS HEAR ME OOUUUUTTT. 
  9. My favorite food item is a grilled cheese burrito from Taco Bell…….. It’s so fire. 
  10. I love writing more than anything. I love writing free verse poems and short stories the most.

Well, that’s enough from me today but seriously I hope this helped you understand what I’m here to do. I’m actually so awesome and cool and like the best person in the world perchance (in the most non-cocky way ever.) 

Thank you for reading all the way to down here, tune into next week if you are interested! <3
