(﹙˓ 🎧 ˒﹚) whoa, did you just hear that voice? it's so recognizable that i have no doubt it's blake monroe. i don't really know much about them, but i heard they're a twenty four year old musical theatre major in their fourth of study. people say that they're naturally engaging and friendly, but rumor has it that they're actually self centered when stressed and overthinker, so i guess we'll never know the truth unless you live with them in berry house. if you ask me, i think i'd describe them as the golden retriever, but their spotify wrapped should say more about them, in which legally blonde - remix by the cast of legally blonde the musical, sweet to me by nick jonas, and these words by natasha beddingfield are amongst their most played. but whatever, i wish them luck on their endeavors in theatre & new directions. i don't know how they have time for all of that, but i can't wait to see how this new school year treats them!

HISTORY,
blake has never met a stage she didn’t love. naturally outgoing, warm, and endlessly enthusiastic, she has a way of drawing people in without even trying. she’s the kind of person who remembers the little things, cheers the loudest for her friends, and throws herself wholeheartedly into everything she cares about. beneath that bright personality, though, is someone who overthinks more than she’d ever admit and puts a lot of pressure on herself to succeed.
a fourth-year musical theatre major, blake has spent most of her life chasing one dream: making it to broadway. every audition, rehearsal, dance class, and late-night study session is another step toward the future she’s always imagined for herself. ambitious to a fault and unwilling to settle for “good enough,” she constantly pushes herself to improve. whether she’s performing with new directions or preparing for her next role, blake approaches every opportunity with the same determination, convinced that one day all of the hard work will be worth it when she finally sees her name in lights.
telephone is a song i wrote when i started to realize i had more feelings for you than the person i’d been pursuing for months. it was the kind of feeling that came on gradually, the more time i spent with you, the more it became apparent that i was falling for you. it got to a point where i went out of my way to be with you, even if he wanted to spend time with me, i found myself bailing just to go drive and get slurpees with you. or to lay in your bed and watch something stupid. it was those nights while you were sleeping that i wrote telephone.
telephone wasn’t ever supposed to make the album, the album was done. it was being mastered and i put everything on hold just to get that one song added. i spent an entire day in the studio recording it, finessing it, finishing it. i was so determined to have it on the album that i didn’t sleep, i don’t think i even really ate. i just remember when it was done i felt relieved and i went to right to your house, so we could watch a bad movie together in bed.
you had no idea then, i was writing all of these posts about you and writing parts of songs in my notes about you. you had no idea i’d put the production of our album on hold so i could put a song on it that i wrote about you.
to be honest, i had no idea how much i really would feel for you. ‘you could be my only one, cause I think that I love you so,’ i wrote it not even realizing that all this time i’d been falling in love with you, i wrote it not realizing at the time how huge of an effect you’d have on me. i wrote it as something i thought could certainly happen, that i hoped would happen, not realizing that it was already in motion.
now here you are in new york, about to celebrate the release with me and i get to tell you that telephone is about you. i’m nervous but fuck, if you don’t know it already. i never thought this was possible again after ciara but i can’t fucking hide it anymore. i love you. i’m so fucking in love with you. i hope you’re in love with me too.
