lost & unsure

BARBRA JANE Campion BERRY Hello there! This is Barbra, the daughter of Rachel Berry herself. I know you are already impressed and truly, there is no need to me. I'm just a typical eighten years old girl who's trying to figure out what life has to offer. I am not going to have my own play, to appear on playbills or to be the voice that fills others with joy. I'll try to be me. I grew up in the Hamptons with my mother and my brother. I have vague memories of a man playing the piano to bring us to sleep, but that's about it. We moved to NYC when we were kids and it's not to us to try and not get lost. I study vocal interpretation at NYADA, but I don't even know where it will take me. I just don't know.

“For doctor’s yes it still does exist.  “ he said smiling as he couldn’t understand that people forget that doctor’s for today still use pagers for calling or needing them right away. “Nope doctor’s everyday use them.  Oh thank you that is very sweet of you.

  “I need to take my heard out of my auditorium or collection of musicals turned into movies and learn about the real life outside!” Barbie admitted, with a light chuckle. She did meet with doctors, she had for the past couple of years. But they were not doctors at the hospital who fixed a bone and let their patient live happily ever after, they were doctors trying to help her get out of the vicious circle her thoughts forced her in. “Oh, no need to thank me! That is telling you of how badly I need a hobby.”

“That’s not surprising, but I’m always down to talk about a stranger’s feelings if you wanna talk some more. If not, you can educate me on how often you’re singing or repeating lines? You praticing for anything right now?” Neveah hardly ever found herself actually interested in anyone’s actual life, but something had her slightly intrigued by the woman. “Well, it’s probably one of the fewest wise decisions I’ve made so far, so thank you. That’s good because there are quite a few disadvantages and none of them are pretty.” It wasn’t out of the ordinary for her to talk to a stranger about drugs, but she rarely ever had such conversations with a person who didn’t do them. If it weren’t for the fact that the other seemed so innocent, she would’ve been put off by the interaction. “Not at all, but it was glad you caught on sooner rather than later or I would’ve had to deal with a high tiny person. And something tells me you’d be quite the silly one.” Her words were followed with a smile once she realized she wasn’t as annoyed by the girl as she was others.

Barbie pouted cutely. The fact this girl who already seemed like her complete opposite cared more than friends and professors touched her. “Thank you. I mean it, thank you. I’ll try not to scare you away already, it would be sad to lose the only person who’s curious about it!” The short woman added. “I study singing and theatre, so I can sing all kinds of songs and the lines I do are those in school plays. Next year, it’s either Hairspray or Grease! I really hope to get a part in it.” NYADA did not always have big budgets for newbies. The graduate students got to perform Chicago or cooler things while they were stuck with those popular classics. “If you’d like to try it out, we could rehearse together! It’s always better than using my teddy bears as my opposites. Surprisingly enough, they don’t make a believable Danny Zuko.” She joked and listened closely to what the other girl said about those illegal substances. Before she could even let her imagination wonder about the topic, the stranger answered her questions. “So I wouldn’t be the crying mess that no one wants to be around?! That is an advantage to me!” She exclaimed, comforted by the fact that it would finally be a change from her mood. “Don’t tell my mom or anyone she knows that I found a positive reason about this stuff.” She continued, in a whisper. “Or else she’ll sent me to rehab until the day I die!”

historianfinn:

I’m a history teacher.

  She smiled at him. “That’s very cool! I was not too bad in history, back in High School. Maybe it helped that a family friend was studying with me. He’s so old, he was probably best buddies with the dinosaurs.”

[barbieberrie]

doctanderson:

“Thank you” he said as he was glad to know the job could be tiring.  “No don’t have time, as I have a pager to help me as well. But I do love puppies, so hopefully some day” 

“A pager, these things still exist?!” She questioned, surprised. “I thought it was only old people who have worked on Broadway for half a century who used those just to call the janitor to clean up the stage. I learned something new!” Barbra continued, smiling at him. “If you need a playlist of compilations of puppy videos, I’m your girl!”

[barbieberrie]

historianfinn:

No worries. Lot’s of people walk in my office without warning so I got used to. 

“Your office? Are you a lawyer or a doctor or something? That sounds very professional, though.” She asked, curious to know more about him. “I wonder what kind of job you do to welcome people like me in your office.”

[barbieberrie]

historianfinn:

That’s okay. Oh, where are my manners, I’m Finn. Pleased to make your acquaintance.

“They must be hanging out with my own manners!” Barbie laughed, cutely. “I’m Barbra, but please, call me Barbie. It makes me feel less old. The pleasure is all mine, Finn! Sorry if I came off as awkward, I should come with a warning.”

[barbieberrie]

historianfinn:

Thank you, little miss. I hope I won’t regect it.

  “I hope you won’t either! It’d be sad to see you go!” Barbie said, before she realized something. “Although I don’t know you and what I’m saying is probably making no sense.”

[barbieberrie]

doctanderson:

“Oh no I won’t let that happen to me,  I get to busy to get swallowed by the internet. It’s all right don’t worry about that as well.  Its okay once again, as that happens. 

 “Good!” She said, moving her hand around. “I can imagine how taxing your job might be, physically and emotionally. So yeah, now that I think about it more, it makes sense that you don’t have the time to get into a marathons of puppies acting cute.”

neveahonearth:

“It doesn’t matter if you’re in one or the attention of one, you prefer an audience. I get what you mean, so it’s not stupid.” Neveah offered her a nod as she shook her head. “No, but when it comes to drugs I try to steer away from the ones you have to sniff or snort.” She couldn’t help but chuckle at the girl’s next comment. A part of her almost regretted getting into this conversation, but she was somewhat interested to see where it was going. “If you’re sure you can handle it then I’m sure I won’t be opposed to sharing.”

“You do? That’s... That’s great! No one really gets how I feel. Being busy singing or repeating lines I’ve learned is easier than the silliest interaction.” The short woman added. She was talkative for sure, but when it came down to her feelings and her stress, she learned it was better to remain quiet. “That’s wise of you! I mean, not that I know the disadvantages following any sort of drugs. But it seems like a wise decision.” Never in her life she thought she would have been speaking about drugs to a stranger and during a barbecue. Definitely, this was a weird day. “I can handle gummybears and sour patch kids!” She exclaimed and squinted. “Wait you’re not talking about sweets and candies, aren’t you? Oy vey, I’m not smart today.” 

[barbieberrie]

historianfinn:

This is my first attempt at making a social media account in years. My friends said it was either this or a dating app, and honestly? I don’t feel like being catfished, at least not for now, maybe some other time. So, I’m just gonna stick to a good ‘ol blog. 

“I’ve heard SO many terrible stories about dating apps and things like that, it’s a wise decision to avoid them. It’s crazy what people can do.” Barbra exclaimed. “It’s enough stuff for having a lifetime of nightmares.” The short girl added, before giving him a smile. “So welcome back in this crazy universe.”

“People are getting dumber because they aren’t taking enough Buzzfeed  quizzes, you might be right! It makes sense,” she laughed. “Nah, you wouldn’t, at least as long as I’m working. I always love learning what people do for toppings, so it’s fun.”

“We’re really going to places with our theories! It should be a college major, to be honest.” She laughed too and faked a relief smile. “What do you like the most? That will be the next thing I’ll try! I need a break from my kids’ dream theme.”

[barbieberrie]

neveahonearth: 

“Why is it such a big deal?” Neveah asked. “Well, that’s something we have in common because I don’t know anything about that stuff either. But just in case you’re too worried, no one’s gonna look twice at the girl helping herself to a piece of candy every now and then.”

“I don’t like big gatherings, unless it’s in an auditorium or I’m on a stage. I know, this is stupid, but that’s me.” Barbie confessed with a shrug. She did not talk about it often, simply because no one even bothered to ask. “So you were kidding and not actually doing drugs?” She asked, tilting her head to the side. “If you’re only into candies, I might have to join you before they melt under the sun.”

naomipierce:

“I don’t know, wouldn’t you rather come and experience the barbecue? Not just die of heat exhaustion from singing all day?”

 “Because I need a reason to be there or else I will just freak out? And singing is different than interacting with strangers, you know? I doubt I’d be the most popular attraction of the barbecue, so it will probably be a warm-up for my voice, unless one comes to me and asks if I can perform the entire track list of Grease.”

So hypothetically speaking, how long do you think someone can keep a puppy from their parents? Because, hypothetically, that person found the cutest puppy and just wants to give it a good home but their parents are allergic to dogs. But if their parents never finds out about it, is it really that terrible?

“Puppies are cute!” Barbie let out, with a happy squeal. “I don’t think your parents’ reaction will be as cute as the animal, though. I guess it depends on how your house is built, if you have the whole basement to yourself, it will be easier to hide it and not have them be in contact with what they’re allergic to. Otherwise, if I were you, I’d be honest. Parents always figure things out, they’re like spies.”

doctanderson:

Hey guys, so its been awhile since I’ve gotten access to a computer. Well its Doc or Blaine as everyone who know’s me can call me that. But I now have time to sit down and well start to tell you its nice having a moment to have a day off. 

 “Don’t let the Internet swallow you and never let you come back to the real world, though!” Barbra exclaimed and raised her eyebrows. “Oh, you’re a doctor? My bad, I didn’t know! I’m sorry for being so ridiculous with my warning.”

[barbieberrie]

neveahonearth:

“I want to say yes, but I’m really only going to the thing for the food so that question might be better suited for someone who’s going for fun. If I’m being completely honestly, I’ll probably be too high to even focus on anything that’s not inanimate.”

“I have to admit that smelling the food from the window definitely helped in giving in and considering to plan to go out... Which is a big deal!” Barbra replied. “Oh, that’s... That’s not cool. It’s dangerous out there, with the grills and people and kids. I don’t think it’s the perfect timing to do such an activity. But I don’t know? I know nothing about recreational snorting, sniffing, or whatever people do.”

"Would anyone like a live singer Sunday afternoon for the Barbecue? According to my mother, I spent too much time today staring at the party from my window like a dramatic teen movie and I should apparently go out in the world more. So, would it be fun to be your Spotify player for a couple of hours?"
