Hey everyone. I'm Wearebrooklyn. More so like to read 'em not write 'em, but you never know.

Random Facts About Me:

I'm Lithuanian so that's fun. Never really met any other Lithuanians but my family grew up surrounded by Italian influence so we're more like honorary Italians.

I love the arts, I mean who doesn't? Big on dancing and singing and all that jazz which ties into me being a huge musical theatre nerd so yeah.

At one point I was learning Spanish, French, and Japanese just all at once like that and surprisingly I can understand a good amount of things in each, but Italian is easiest for me because we grew up speaking it in bits and pieces and it's really the only one I can pronounce without sounding like a complete idiot.

I've been dancing for near 13 years now and am known to be a dreamer but not exactly an optimist so that can get a little confusing at times.

Oh also I'm super gay and gay relationships in any form make way more sense to me than hetero ones so if you don't like it then, suck it I guess.

A little more about me:

Weird nicknames I have been given:

The only one I really respond to is Spot because that's just what a lot of people have called me over years seeing as I'm a Newsies fan, I love Brooklyn, etc etc blah blah blah.

Favourite types of music:

Dean Martin. Just all of it.

Frankie Valli and the four seasons.

Frank Sinatra (lotta Franks)

Million Dollar Quartet

Favourite Movies:

Newsies (duh)

Brooklyn (only sappy movie I like)

The Dark Knight

Favourite OTPs:

Jack/Spot... but Spot/Race are nice too... but Jack/Davey can happen... but like??? There's too many possibilities.
