down goes the wall
down goes the gaurd
after midnight dies
it ain't so hard
to see the truth
no need for lies
all we are is all
after midnight dies
-After Midnight Dies, The Wild Party (LaChiusa)

"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl
"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott
