Oldsnavi and Filipinusnavi during Heights Manila’s curtain call. I still couldn’t get over with all the Lin-sanity that happened Friday night.

“In The Heights” Flash Mob for Lin-Manuel Miranda - City Walk - Los Angeles

[foxrots]

Today was quite a day.

I watched ITH Manila and got to actually meet Lin Manuel-Miranda. The original writer and lyricist (Not to mention LEAD) in the ACTUAL In The Heights. I cannot believe he flew halfway around the world for little old us. AMAZING.

From a mob of screaming fangirls and fanboys, Lin pointed at us and said “I gotta meet these guys ‘coz they scare me” (seriously. I scared myself, too. I was not aware of my serious fangirling capability up until last night. lol) He signed my Heights playbill and flyer and we had our photo taken (I look like a midget beside him. Oh wait, I look like a midget beside anyone!) and he was like “I’m expecting some serious Tumblr fanarts out of this” and I was like, “Dood, pare, do you remember the Book of Mormon-In The Heights crossover illustration?” and he was like, “Yeah!”, and I was like, “I made that. lolololol”, and he said “Oh! I love that!!” and then he got mobbed by people again and I just lied dead on the cold pavement of RCBC. Good times.

And then there was the awkward elevator moment afterwards that I’m sure y’all already know about. Last night was so so crazy. I love it.
