It can't be Thursday! Its too gruesome!

A special present if you get the reference.

Not that Thursday is gruesome, however. I'm actually INCREDIBLY excited that its here! All of...one minute ago.

Yes yes, I may have been waiting for the clock to hit midnight just so I could post this blog. I'm anxious, okay? Sheesh.

Plus, I have to work all day tomorrow, so I figured I'd go ahead and post now instead of tomorrow night when I'm dead from working at a shoe store over tax-free weekend. Who came up with tax-free weekend anyways? You don't actually save any money, because stores just take all the sales off. POINTLESS.

Sorry. I guess I should introduce myself.

Hello kids (and I can actually say that somewhat accurately, since I'm pretty certain I'm older than all of you! ha!), I'm Chelsea. Sometimes referred to as Chels, The Chels, Freckles, Red, or the Turner Classic Nerdfighter. Pick your favorite.
I'm 20 years old, and about to begin my junior year at Berry College in three weeks that are bound to pass entirely too slowly. I'm a theatre major with a business minor (so I can maybe actually get a decent paying job when I graduate). If you know anything about theatre kids, that'll tell you a lot about me. But be not afraid! We're not a crazy as you might think.

No, that's a lie. We are. But you'll learn to love it, I promise.

Anyways, god...there are so many things that I love. Of course I love theatre, but the only thing I would choose over being an actress is being a jazz singer. I ADORE jazz, and its my preferred style of music to sing. But I love pretty much ALL music except country, rap in the Souljda Boy genre, and whateveritis genre that Hannah Montana and Hillary Duff and such people fit into.

I love anything vintage, especially old movies. (Note: Turner Classic NF.) I'd give you a list, but it would take all night. I'll spare you. I like to say I'm a movie buff, but I know people who really are, and I've got nothing on them. But I've seen a helluva lot of movies.

Maybe I should stop rambling and answer the questions already.

1. Who are your heroes?
There's a slew of old actors/actresses that I think were phenomenal, but again, I'll spare you. My favorite jazz singer is probably Billie Holiday. I pick her over Ella just because her voice is so much more distinctive.
And my parents, as cliche as that is.
2. What's your favorite pair of shoes to wear?
Ooh. Don't get me started on shoes. Its an addiction. Probably these:

Although that's not a great picture. Doesn't do them justice.
3. What's your favorite book?
Oh, there's a list. A selection:
The Great Gatsby. The Picture of Dorian Gray. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The Notebook. Harry Potter. Twilight. The Giver. The Guardian. The Tenth Circle. Pride and Prejudice. Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim. Looking For Alaska. An Abundance of Katherines. Persuasion. The Scarlet Letter. To Kill A Mockingbird. The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
4. Name something really random that you love/love to do.
I have a tendency to doodle. I doodle on everything. Sometimes its elaborate, sometimes its song lyrics, sometimes its just lots of stars. I like to draw, and never really thought I was that great at it. But I just took a costume design class and really enjoyed it. And I got quite a few compliments. So yeah.
I'm also randomly into marketing/advertising, specifically fashion marketing. So yeah. Business minor. Ha.

Okay. This has been exceedingly long and took me half an hour to write. So I'll shut up.

Hope you all have a fabulous day/weekend!

EDIT:
Oh, PS: I totally think these questions are a great idea! Here are some more I thought of-

Favorite TV shows?
If you had to describe your 'style', what would it be? [just because I'm a little bit of a fashionista, and I'm curious.]
Day person or Night person?
Coffee or Tea?

And how do you guys feel about some 'challenges' or something? Just to give us something to do? I mean, I don't have any ideas, but I'm pretty much up for anything. :)

EDIT AGAIN:
And HERE'S a link to my personal journal, if you want more of my ramblings. I try to post every day. :)
