About Me

Ladyadelon: It's a MUSICAL. SelaVerran: YOU'RE a musical. Ladyadelon: Yes.... Yes I am.The Girl, the Myth, the Legend... almost.Theatre Student livin' in NYC and lovin' it. I Can't wait to graduate and start being a starving artist... hopefully working at ESPN zone in Times Square and auditioning my butt off.My friends say I act like an 80 year old for preferring Blues Clubs and Pubs where you can sit and talk over dingy dive bars and skeezy dance clubs... I say I just have refined and sophisticated tastes that they can't begin to grasp at."Look to this day for it is life, the very life of life; for in its brief course lay all the verities and realities and of our existence: the bliss of growth, the splendor of beauty. For yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow only a vision, but today well spent makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well therefore to this day, such as the salutation to the dawn."
