OMG MT WTF BBQ


MT majors, listen up.
quit being a douchebag. 
refrain from keeping your headshot posted as your profile picture for way too long after they're "new". 3 weeks max. then, please alternate with normal pictures.
do not look down your nose at me because i'm not part of your "club" for not majoring in MT. I am just as, if not more qualified to be in the position you are in- but i've chosen to do otherwise with my major, for my own reasons- so don't assume i can't hack it.
please, for the love of GOD, do not sing Jason Robert Brown unless you can tear that shit up. same goes for anything Belt-y. or just.... just don't sing unless you don't suck- by other people's standards, not your own. if you are mediocre, you will be a waiter forever. so quit now. 
do not wear your character shoes in public, by "accident" because they were the "closest thing to the door" or something. bullshit. you have other shoes. wear them.
before auditions, please don't try to make yourself look superior by "quietly" practicing in the corner loud enough to where other people can hear your 16 bars of "Stars and the Moon" over and over. No one wants to hear that shit.
quit time-stepping while having conversations with people. we get it. you're in tap. now stoppit.
no, i do not want to hear a line from one of your monologues thrown in to regular conversation. nor do i want to hear too many references to songs- specifically, if i hear "let's start at the very beginning- i hear it's a very good place to start" one more time, i will choke you.
learn more songs on the piano than those 4 that you know. please.
most of all though, please just take yourself off of your pedestal and realize that just because you get to pursue your passion does not mean that people want to hear about it, or should bow to you because of it. you are not secretly superior because you have some sort of talent. so quit acting like it.
i guess i could just wait til after you're all out of college to let you realize these things yourself. but i wanted to vent. mainly because i saw on my facebook news feed, practically the entire page was filled with names that had headshots next to them. albeit, very attractive ones, it just made me die a little. 
...maybe i just need to get my own headshots. alas, poverty strikes again.

**side note- kate, if you read this- i fully support you being an mt major. because you're actually legit talented. but.. you know the people i'm talking about. gotta love ocu. *headdesk*

  1. I LOVE THIS ENTRY! And I'm not offended in the least, probably because I hold all the same bitterness against MTers that DO act like this... hahaha. It's all so true.

    Come to NY with me anyway. We can work menial jobs and eat Ramens every day :)
