Do I not make myself known enough? To be honest, a lot of the things I like I don't really talk about because most people don't know about them... or in random cases will discover exist through me. Mm, this prompted me to make another redundant list post. Order kinda matters but does tend to change over time.
Musicals - Favorite Song(s):
A Chorus Line - "Hello Twelve, Hello Thirteen, Hello Love"
Company - title song, followed by Not Getting Married
Sweeney Todd - Not While I'm Around, Green Finch and Linnet Bird, Kiss Me
Spring Awakening - My Junk, Bitch of Living, And Then There Were None, Totally Fucked
Miss Saigon - Sun and Moon, This is the Hour
Wicked - What is this Feeling
A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum - Comedy Tonight
Jesus Christ SuperStar - Superstar
Forbidden Broadway: Special Victims Unit - randoms
Avenue Q - It Sucks to be Me
Phantom (and of the Opera) - Masquerade from Opera
Books - author:
The Bible - multiple
The Sound and the Fury - Faulkner
To The Lighthouse - Woolf
The Stranger - Camus
Catch-22 - Heller
Crime and Punishment - Dostoevsky (maybe less so now that I've had to read it again, but it still has good memories associated with it)
The Seagull - Chekhov
The Bell Jar - Plath
The Great Gatsby - Fitzgerald
Grendel - Gardner
- to be honest I think I tend to like American literature the most. I mean, I like Slavic and all, but I only really liked Dostoevsky, Chekhov, and the Blok/Bely love triangle. The rest of them are kinda in the realm of weirdness on a not so much like level, and Tolstoy's obsession with the fact that families are awesome and then not so awesome was kinda annoying. I still need to read more Japanese lit though.
