I'm two days late. Sue me. It was my birthday and then April Fools, so...
Anyway. March was a better month than I was expecting it to be. I had some good times with friends I loved and went out and took walks just for me, which is always nice.
Huge incredible special thanks to @kacivillagomez@namesthespoon@caracii@demeter_b14@imsofiaportillo for an amazing surprise of a birthday party. It warmed my heart so much and I felt so loved the whole evening. I love you all and you made my 23rd the best birthday in the world <3
February. Short month. Made shorter by actually doing things, shocker...
Got to see a tasty comedy show, got to go see a couple sights, and most importantly - got to go home and see my dog (and my family and friends I guess...) who I have missed so so much <3
Are pictures a bit lackluster this month? Prolly.
I'm trying a new thing this year guys.
Not for any specific reason, just to kinda give myself a physical motivation to take more photos of things. I like taking photos.
Are they always good? No, but it's fun.
Half of these are just from walking around when I was bored so-
Maybe next month and the months later I'll actually do more, but this was something I decided on halfway through the month.
(Also @kacivillagomez I'm tagging you here since I can't on the photo)
Last post about 2025, I promise.
I know I already did a post about the shows I saw last year, but consider this part 2, because there was NO WAY I wasn't going to do a year recap and not include We're All Gonna Die...
This series was MAGNIFICENT and I've blabbed a lot here and to so many friends about this show and I probably will continue to do so for a while.
George and Jon managed to capture something so beautiful and bewitching with Maw Meadows and I'm so so so happy to have gotten to not only see every episode but also participate??
All of the guests, PCs and NPCs alike, were so much fun and the characters were always electric.
I've tried, but it's literally impossible to pick a favourite episode.
There's no better way, to me, to fully send-off all the things that happened for me in 2025.
Thank you George. Thank you Jon. Thank you Smosh. Thank you everyone who made this incredible project possible.

And thank you 2025 for being one of the best and worst years of my life. Maybe we can... not have the worst parts in 2026?
As I am chronically bad at taking pictures of/during the things I've done in my life, I don't have much to show for the amazing amazing time I've had working on various projects throughout this year.
From helping with friends' culminating projects, to being a director for my (now) alma mater's film festival (and later coming back to be an alumni mentor :) ), to ADing on a fun horror project, and everything in-between (including an internship which I'm totally allowed to talk about...). It's all been so much fun, and hard hard work, but so rewarding.
And the people I've met and interacted with and collaborated with have been so great.
There are times where my passion for film and theatre wanes - either because I burn myself out or because of various disillusionments that cross my brain - but it's the many moments like these in my life that remind me that there's a reason I chose it. That I chose art and a life of struggling to create something amazing.
I endeavor to always be growing, to always be creating.
And who knows... I may have some fun projects tucked away for this year... @sportscarproductions@_.mountgummy._@jason.b.x@bridgetcvalenzuela@alondru_
Okay, so. Despite this being a rather short (slide-wise) post, that doesn't mean I didn't see a plethora of shows this year.
Every show I saw, whether it's shown here or not, was so much fun and so spectacular. The friends I saw them with even moreso.
Gross Prophets, The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals, Intelligent Life, Big Bear. SO mant improv and fun little joints and sets and mini musicals.
Given that after most of the bigger events I put out heaps of stories talking about my experience and how much fun I had, I don't want to bore you even more.
But truly I has such an amazing time.
I'm so happy to have gotten to experience so many delights throughout the year.
I can't wait for more this year. <3

We're All Gonna Die was phenomenal, start to finish. My hands always hurt from clapping, my cheeks always hurt from laughing, and I was always at the edge of my seat to see what the next turn of the story was going to be.
George and Jon have crafted such an incredibly rich world in Maw Meadows and the teams of people that put their efforts into making this the BEST thing it could possibly be deserve every single praise.
All the guests across the eight (including the pilot) episodes have been so so so great and it's been SO much fun watching new dynamics form with so many different characters each time.
To all of you (the wonderful characters) - Thank you for putting your all into your performances and characters every single time. Your investment only made everyone else even more invested and watching all of you react to what was happening in real time and be so passionate about everything was an incredible joy!!
And to the amazing amazing amazing NPCs - AUGH! Your performances were always so much fun!! I loved never knowing who (or what) was going to show up and whenever George would queue one of you up, the anticipation would nearly kill me. You were all PHENOMENAL!! (Though my bias will never stray from a certain fucking insane scientist...)
It's been such an honor and a delight to get to be there throughout We're All Gonna Die's amazing transformation, as each episode only got better than the last. I cannot wait to see what's in store next, and We're All Gonna Die will linger in my brain forevermore.
A final thank you to all the wonderful wonderful amazing incredible people that helped put all of this together, both on and off stage. I wish I knew all of your names and could tag every single one of you, but I can't. So if you happen to see this, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for having a hand in making this stupendous production happen!
(More in the comments cause apparently I'm talking too much...)
It's been a few weeks now, so I'm way too late (as usual) for this, but GOD this was such an incredible show.
I don't want to give anything away so I'm not going to gush about it, especially not the way I want to, but just know that this was one of the best best pieces of live theatre I've ever seen.
Everyone that had any part of it was fucking phenomenal! (Including ALL of the crew who made it such a work of art and @drumfarmer who I couldn't tag on the last image)
Cast and crew alike put their heart and soul into something and it turned out sososo spectacularly!
And THANK YOU to my many friends (not pictured is @kacivillagomez who I dragged with me to a last-minute show) who came with me. For many of them it was their first live Starkid performance, and I was so so happy that it got to be such an amazing one.
I'm beyond glad that you had such a blast, because so did I!!
Thank you to my friends and family for allowing me to drag you out to this and thank you to Starkid for having something so stupendous to drag my loved ones out to!
Fatal Frame Wrap Party <3
Was super fun, total vibes!!
This project was soso much fun to work on :))
Thank you to EVERYONE who brought me on and made me feel at home as your AD <33
With the amount of people that were there, I'm totally forgetting who all to tag in pictures so forgive me :')
In honour of the new series starting in a few days (which I have a ticket for the first episode >:) ), I figured I'd post the (very few) pictures I got from the first night here! :)
It was so INCREDIBLY fun and awe-inspiring and jaw-dropping to watch a Dread campaign ran by @dmgeorge_primavera ! He is a total master-act when it comes to literally every aspect of being a Game Master - suspense, intrigue, fun, the actual gameplay.
Watching this live was for adult me who loves playing TTRPGs and being the forever DM... but it's also for little kid me who loved DnD so much and just wanted to play with other people. Who, during their first game, didn't know the rules and got killed in their first encounter because the boys they were playing with didn't want to get dragged down. It's such a little thing - wanting to play a game. But it means so much to so many people.
I don't know why (I know why), but I feel home and just a little more healed every time I watch people - any people - playing a TTRPG and just having *fun*. Because that's what it's about! Fun!
And this was a FUN NIGHT!
Now that I'm done being overly sappy - everyone as sososososo amazing and I LOVED this so much! <3
I did a thing!!
Huge props and thanks to @dxe.entertainment for bringing me on to AD for this shoot! So much fun and I loved getting to dip my hands deeper into the horror genre since I always get so giddy writing horror scripts.
Was a huge fan of my time on set <3
Can't wait for this to come out to see everyone's hard work on the screen!
