How To Properly Fangirl To The Hamilton Grammys Performance
Ticket Master

Recently, I have become a huge fangirl of the masterpiece that is the now Grammy-winning, Broadway musical "Hamilton." If you don't know what this is:

A) this article isn't for you

B) educate yo-self. Start with this: www.hamiltonbroadway.com.

For those of you who haven't been living under a rock, or just experienced your first taste of the musical with the amazing Grammy tidbit, here are my steps on how to properly fangirl to a "Hamilton" performance.


Try (and fail) to contain your excitement



You already know you're gonna freak out so much that you miss the performance. So at least try to calm yourself first.

Impatiently sit through Colbert's intro.



Colbert ,you're great and all, but I am not willing to "wait for it."

Whisper-rap until you get to this part:

Tell me Lin, what is it?

Let Lin have his moment.

He worked so hard on this show. This moment deserves to be untouched.

Take a second to appreciate the ensemble.

Seriously, the ensemble is incredible and add so much to the story and its effect.

Really get into it when the beat picks up.

There woulda been nothin' left to do for someone less astute!

Feel really proud that such a revolutionary musical is reaching new audiences.

*Tear streams down face* I'm such a proud theater geek.

And finally, freak out because they won a Grammy!

And revel in the fact that Lin rapped his speech. In-freakin-credible.

"Hamilton" is truly a show that is taking the country, and dare I say the world, by storm. A rap musical about the life of the first U.S Treasury Secretary with a mixed-race cast playing the founding fathers/early Americans just won a Grammy. (Honestly, the fact that I can say all those words in a legitimate sentence baffles me.) Lin-Manuel Miranda and the rest of the cast and crew are making history, by retelling history. And I am proud to call myself a fangirl of this incredible show.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
