"OMG GUYS LOOK! A RAINBOW JUST APPEARED ON ME"🌈 (happy pride!😌)

poodle boy and the love of my life🥰

the gig was so good and they all were on fire!❤️‍🔥 I arrived to the festival area about an hour before show time and me being me, I was a bit worried am I gonna get a good place at the audience😅 but I got to the third row and there were only like 20-30 people waiting, so there was plenty of room🥰 (and I think that was because there were no kids/teens out there😅👍🏻👍🏻) I loved how they all smiled during the show, they had so much fun🥺💖 I loved aleksi's little shenanigans, and olli was just unbelievably gorgeous as always! (what stuff do you mix in your morning coffee sir..?😳) and I heard gun live!!😍🤩 but still no autopsy for me..😤🥲

thanks @thisisntaparty & @ladysorbus for the company🥰💖 it was so nice to see you and I didnt have to be alone all day at the festival area🫶🏻

omg, Lindsay, where do I even begin? - okay, so, I am repeating my sophomore year of college (more or less the equivalent) and I was extremely bummed about it, but this boy in my class has been the light of my days and the bane of my existence. he is SO CUTE, with those mesmerizing hazel/brown eyes, he's like 6'2 and Ripped bc he plays rugby (!!!!!!), so sweet and nice and so talkative (like omg he's such a nerd when he starts talking about his interests no one can stop him), he's always dressed well and has a lovely singing voice, he's the eldest of four (boy girl boy girl) and a Christian (but like normal about it😭) his name is literally a variation of Peter????? when I tell you this man is Peter Pevensie incarnate. we're good friends and talk a lot every day and I loooove teasing him. he also teases me a lot but he's that way with everyone (but I won't lie, since he's almost a whole ass foot taller than me he gave me a lil humiliating pat on the head once like I was a poodle and I lowkey melted😭). the other day he got pumice in his hair (don't ask) so he ruffled his hair & it was all disheveled like a puppy and when he looked back up at me I giggled bc he looked SO CUTE and he broke into a grin asking "what?" like UGH i just wanted to eat him like a cookie!!!!!!! we have so many common interests and a good common friend of ours (who has deep convos with both of us) said we are literally the same person, like emotionally speaking, to a point that is almost frightening 💀 anyway somewhere along the line I got this huge crush on him and it ate me alive because every single time I've liked someone I've ended up being friendzoned, and I feel like he's not as playful with me as he is with his other girl friends so I was like hmmmm am I putting myself up for heartbreak? probably 😍 but you know how it is! the sign can't stop me cause I can't read, and so on Friday I went to a house party he was invited to and I was determined to shoot my shot. i had hyped myself up and put on my best dress and perfume and given myself all the pep talks and listened to my hot girl shit playlist on the way there and!!!!! he ended up not fucking showing!!!!!! so I'm like so disappointed at first and my friend (who knows about my feelings at this point) is like, he's such an idiot, omg, are you gonna be okay? and I'm laughing through the hurt like "yeah he'll never know what he missed bc I'm the baddest bitch there is🤪" but THEN the alcohol started kicking in and I texted him "well too bad for you, I wanted to tell you something tonight and I guess you'll never know what it was" which is the BIGGEST hint I could ever drop, like???? and INSTEAD OF SHOWING THE TINIEST BIT OF INTEREST, the dude straight up says "aight" LIKE ?????? SIR ??????? so I'm understandably pissed and mad and sad bc he's definitely not interested and it's soooo frustrating bc we would've been so cute together and I hate him!!!!! and I forget about him for the rest of the night..... until I drunk texted him at 1:30am that he was a bitch and that I cared about him too much for my own good 💀💀💀 tl;dr I'm an idiot for any man with a cute smile

but tell me about your boy drama now!!! and please tell me it went better than mine

girl can you move over like make room for me I need a tall brown eyed christian boy 🙈

from your description I fell a little bit in love with him ngl. the head pat!!!! Oh my word I WOULD DIE!

I really wish I had advice to give you, but honestly it's a MESSY situation girl drunk texting a confession is just. wow. I applaud you like keep me updated on every single happening omg

my boy drama is like SO not that. It's literally this customer that I've seen three (3) times. I saw him the first time, noticed he was attractive, went and told my coworker. Whole time she was ringing him in he didn't look at me once (which is. Y'know. Solid because of COURSE I like a guy who doesn't even acknowledge my presence). Then the next day I see him again but don't recognize him, turn to my other coworker and am like 'hey girl there's a cute guy here I need your opinion. He's over there in the dark teal hoodie and grey cap-' and I realize it's the same guy and start freaking out. She rings him in and she starts talking to him about our membership program, and we learn that he's from out of town and is just here working on a rig, and that he doesn't know how long they'll be stationed here. He leaves and me and her freak out and talk about how nice his voice is and she keeps telling me I should give him my number. THEN last night he comes in again, and I catch a glance at his profile and I wasn't SURE if it was him and I told my coworker so BUT IT WAS HIM and I'm ringing him in this time and I ask if he's a member, act like I just remembered that he's not and from out of town, and I ask if they're staying for Christmas. He says no, that they're going home for Christmas and taking a break, and I say that that's good, to spend time with family. He kinda laughs a little and says no, he's single so there's none of that, but he does have a sister. I smile and say that I hope he's able to see her over the holidays and he leaves. THATS IT and then my coworker is like totally telling me to shoot my shot but I'm SCARED but like why did he go out of his way to tell me he's single???? Anyways I'm going to the bar on the 23rd and I doubt he'll be there BUT IF HE IS I'll shoot my shot. If not I might see him after Christmas since he'll be coming back

Most wonderful Sab,

I am SO SORRY but I have the most horrible deadline due Thursday, but I PROMISE that after it’s done, I’ll reread chapter four PROPERLY and leave proper commentary!! I want to dedicate, like, two hours to it to properly savour it 😁

But honestly, Sab?? I thought it was so good!!

I loved all the scenes that made up the whole!! I loved the introduction, I loved the sad parting, I love how they called each other and had video calls over food … 🥹🥹🥹🫶🫶🫶 and I love how you tackled this strange limbo period of just before university started with no friends being over and how that left her feeling restless…. And the introduction of Yuta was good!!! Like I was firmly in the Professor Geto camp and I still am, but I thought his introduction made sense!! And him coming late too?? They can be coming in late buddies !! 😆😆😆

And honestly, I thought Professor Geto’s response was super realistic. I feel like the way he behaved would’ve been the way I would’ve behaved. Like the delaying, the procrastinating of feelings, the wish for your partner to have the best of the best, feeling inadequate, work absorbing you… I just feel for Professor Geto 😔😔😣😣 like he just wants the best for his girl, and he wants only the best things in life for her, and if it means letting go of her, he’ll do that just for her 😭😭😭😫😫😫 he’s such a romantic I want to cry 😢😢☹️☹️☹️💔💔💔

And I feel like that birthday scene was so memorable?? Like her just wanting him close and him also wanting to be there but just life getting in the way of things and he was so busy getting to her, he didn’t text her (and god, that’s so realistic!!!!!), and then her ending up getting checked on by Yuta (!!!), and then him coming in and having a cake, and the ‘surprise’, and her just wanting him close and not to discuss life and everything… 😩😩❤️❤️ My gosh, so many feelings and emotions, and pent-up emotions, and love, and sadness !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Professor Geto got her the gift he remembered her wanting??? 🥹🥹🥹💞💞💞💞 our attentive & observant Prince Charming 🫶🫶🫶👰‍♀️👰‍♀️👰‍♀️🤰🤰🤰❤️❤️❤️ Having read part four, I have to agree… the pain makes sense, the pain makes sense. I agree that having a breakup makes sense in their journey. But also, the way you crafted their relationship, their reconciliation later down the line makes sense too!!!!🥹🥹❤️❤️❤️ And I’ll be waiting for it !!! 👰‍♀️👰‍♀️🤰🤰💍💍🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️💘💘😍😍🍯🍯🌙🌙🏝🏝 and for their poodle!!! 🐩🐩🐩 (look, I must admit, I’m super duper duper unhealthily obsessed with dogs and I happen to have a poodle so I’m literally going insane over this detail???? And poodles are so, so cute and I can just imagine Suguru holding a cute black poodle cutie pie!!!)

Sab, thank you so, so, so, so, so, so MUCH for this gift!!! 💘💘💞💞💕💕🫶🫶 I’m so, so thankful you wrote it!!! And I’ll be eagerly waiting for part five and for the extra credit fics!!! 🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️❤️❤️❤️🫶🫶

you’re completely fine!! good luck with your deadlines babe!! Thank you for leaving this ask, love 💕 Hahaha I’m glad you saw the parallel of yuta coming in late and reader — I was hoping someone would notice that 🥹🫶

honestly same, like if I couldn’t give 100% to my partner, I’d feel too guilty to be with them. but he definitely made a mistake by making his own choice without giving reader much of a choice in the matter.

I know I can’t wait to write them getting back together and even those awkward initial stages of seeing each other will be fun haha — I can’t wait to have them just be together with no impediments 💕 yes the poodle omg I love that for you and for them — prof geto will be too cute with his little black poodle - I can’t wait 😭

thank you so much for this bb — you made my entire day 🥹🫶😭💕 I look forward to your in depth thoughts (you don’t have to of course if you don’t have time, no pressure!)

Vampire, Siren, and Fachen!

Omg thanks 😍

𝐕𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐞 - Something that you’re proud of: Yesterday I performed a surgery that I had never done before, but it was a life or death situation so I sucked it up and did it, and it went really well!

𝐒𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐧 - A song that you remember from your childhood I have a very distinct memory of walking along the boardwalk in Wildwood, NJ on vacation with my dad late at night and hearing Bailamos by Enrique Iglesias blaring from the boardwalk speakers. I was 7. Hearing it still makes me feel nostalgic, if a bit sad.

𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐧 - Do you have any pets? Yes! Currently my two boys (Mao and Yuengling) live with my mom because they're not really well-socialized and we can't get them into carriers lmao. My girls (Azalea and Mango) and my dog (Taxi) live in my house with me and my husband though.

I'm gonna put their pictures and a short bio of all of them under a cut :)

Azalea - 7 yo FS DSH This gremlin was born to an owned outdoor cat on the East Caribbean island of Grenada who had kittens. The momma cat's owners didn't want the kittens, so they gave them to a TNR group to adopt out. Azalea was the last one who hadn't been adopted yet, and she was the runt (she was originally named Arya because she was so tiny lol). She's super codependent and also my emotional support animal / the love of my life. I've had her since she was 8 weeks old 😭

Mango - 1 yo FS DSH This little shit was found on the city streets at about 4 weeks old without a mom or littermates, so she was dropped off at the shelter where I work. I wanted a friend for Taxi since Azalea hates him, so I brought the little 1 lb kitten home. She's got diagnosed with the kitty-tism, which makes for some very interesting interactions between her and Azalea (read: fights where Azalea is big mad but Mango thinks they're having fun). She also shares a single braincell with Taxi.

Taxi - 3 yo MN Chihuahua Yorkie Poodle Pomeranian Shih Tzu thing This absolute fucking goober was relinquished to the shelter due to a broken leg that the owners couldn't afford to fix. He spent about 2 months in a crate with a splint in an attempt to let it heal on its own. It didn't. So then I offered to foster him until the day of his leg amputation. Unfortunately, my husband fell in love with him, and now his is our sad pathetic son who has sleept between us under the covers every night for the last 2 years.

Mao - 7 yo MN Siamese This gremlin was a feral cat in Grenada too. A student at the university noticed that he had blood and pus coming from his mouth, so we took him to the clinic and found out that he has shit dental genetics and needed all of his teeth removed. We obviously couldn't release a feral cat with no teeth back into the "wild," so I took him home. I've had him for 6 years now 🤗

Yuengling - 10 MC DSH This goober has big orange cat energy. He was hit by a car as a kitten and had his leg amputated. He then went into foster care and stayed there for SEVEN YEARS before I adopted him. Now he hobbles around my mom's house yodelling all day.

So, what's your top 5 musicals of all times? 👀🎤

Is this Imanga once again allowing me to jump on my soapbox for things no one else cares about!!!!!!!!! 😍😍

Starting from Top-Top-TOP FAVE to Also Top Fave!!:

1. Cats

Did I watch the recent movie? Nooooo. I'm way too scared to see if they ruined my #1 beloved musical as much as others say they did. I have loved the stage musical since I was a little girl because of the white cat, Victoria. Since I danced ballet, her beginning solo made me 🤩. People never understand why I love Cats. I just love the dancing!!! so much dancing!!!...and the fun songs...and the magic....I don't actually care about plot that much. BUT Cats does have a plot!!!!!!! Mr. Mistoffelees saves Old Deuteronomy and Grizabella gets reborn in the Heaviside Layer!!!! My childhood dream was to be cast in Cats as any one of them. Race doesn't matter because everyone's in makeup and wigs anyway 🥺 I'll be on Broadway in another life I guess...

2. West Side Story

The dancing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the music, of course, is just...the best. I had the opportunities to play the soundtrack on the clarinet in my high school orchestra AND dance a ballet piece in my last high school production, so the music is injected in my veins, I swear. Also, who doesn't love watching "gangs" of men dance with so much grace. I just adore this musical 💕💕 Every moment is so vivid and heartfelt. My third NaruHina fanfic was based on this musical.

3. Grease

John Travolta. omg. He's such a ham. As a kid, I did not at all register how absolutely uncool the T-Birds are...like the Pink Ladies are way too good for them. What I love about Grease is that there is so much more to appreciate about it when you're older and can understand what all the characters are talking about lolll. But also the songs are so much fun, the coming-of-age angst is real, and somehow, after alllll of the hijinks, the characters actually mature??!! This musical has arguably some of the best character development ever. Also the 50s poodle skirts context is just so cute.

4. Les Choristes

Coming in, completely unexpected with NO dancing whatsoever, is Les Choristes. I first watched this with my French Class, no subtitles, we had to try to comprehend it by ourselves. My teacher stopped the film and replayed scenes twice while we filled out worksheets about what was going on. I don't know what it was about this scene... "Action; réaction" where Rachin grabs his own talking hand, we just thought it was hilarious. We'd burst out laughing each time. Besides that, this film is beautiful. It's like a French Kinpachi-sensei with singing. We thought that Pépinot was just the most adorable little boy ever. The song "Cerf-volant, volant au vent, ne t'arrête pas..." that whole song was my internal soundtrack for those blessed weeks. And then when the movie was over, like absolute fangirls, we squealed over grown Jean-Baptiste Maunier, the actor for bad boy singing prodigy Pierre Morhange. Gosh. Good times. ONE DAY, FRANCE, ONE DAY.

5. The Sound of Music

Classic. As a small kid, I used to sing the songs in the shower! The songs are extremely kid-friendly despite the heavy stuff going on in the movie. In high school, the first dance I ever choreographed for a show was for the Ballet 1 girls to "My Favorite Things," and it turned out really, really cute. My older sister likes to tweak the lyrics for "The Lonely Goatherd" to be about me and my husband, and she actually sang it at our wedding😂. Basically, this musical is precious, and Julie Andrews is such a show-stealing star!!!

After that, honorable mentions in no particular order are My Fair Lady (plot & romance are good, Audrey Hepburn is 💗), Moulin Rouge! (soundtrack is amazing...Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor omgg, omggggg 😩), On the Town (this soundtrack IS my heartbeat, also GENE KELLY and FRANK SINATRA), The Phantom of the Opera (nothing beats watching this live), Fiddler on the Roof (has grown on me tremendously over the years), Rent (also has grown on me over time), A Chorus Line (I, uh, live vicariously through the auditionees' stress), Singin' In the Rain (classic, also, GENE KELLY), and Flower Drum Song (ok, it's like the first majority-Asian Am cast ever so I excuse the dated racism, the songs are fun).

My tastes in musicals run old thanks to my mother. I was watching at a young age films that made no coherent sense to me, but I didn't care. I just loved the music and dancing. I've ended up dancing to the majority of the soundtracks on this post for various performances, and noowwww, I feel like watching Cats. And Les Choristes. And On the Town. but it's really late.
