immediately sing "Would you light my candle."
. . . your friend was bidding on Mimi’s RENT halter top on E-bay for
you while you were talking on messenger
. . . you know all the words to La Vie Boheme.
. . . you've dreamed of playing a part in Rent (even if you can't
sing or act).
. . . you can recite/sing the lines along with your favorite character.
. . . when somebody asks "what's the time?" you feel compelled to
sing out "well it's gotta be close to midnight!"
. . . when performing math, you wonder if this equation will equal
525,600.
. . . you can't sleep at night because the entire musical won't stop
playing in your head.
. . . you cry when listening to a CD you have already heard
approximately four thousand seventy two times.
. . . you sign letters to friends with quotes from Rent.
. . . you know the entire LVB dance and are ready to perform it for
everyone wherever you can find a table.
You know the dance for all of the characters.
. . . every time someone asks "what'd you forget?", you reply "got a
light?"
. . . the wallpaper on your computer screen is of a scene from Rent.
. . . every time you see Wizard of Oz, you say 'You know, Dorothy and
Toto only went over the rainbow to blow off Auntie Em...'

from RENT all over your Algebra folder.

through w/out the cd while driving with your friends.
. . . you have ever cast RENT with your friends in certain roles.
. . . you listen to the soundtrack so much that your mother who's

. . . you and your boyfriend act out "light my candle" or "I should
tell you" or "another day"
. . . you have "No day but today" written everywhere
. . . you want Mimi's clothes even though they are really slutty
. . you spend 12 1/2 hours looking at RENT related sites
. . . when you ask someone for something and that person denies it to
you, the phrase "today for you tomorrow for me" starts playing in
your head immediately.
. . . you start to wear badges with the name of the character you're
most like (i.e.: Hi, I'm Mark Cohen!)
. . . you are able to make references to Rent anytime, day or night.
. . . you're listening to RENT while you're reading this page.
. . . you sing the cd in the shower
. . . you watch yourself in the mirror while you act out both parts

. . . you play RENT association with your Renthead friends
. . . you saw the movie Road Trip only because Anthony Rapp had a

. . . you read this entire list and actually understand everything on
it.
. . . not only do you dream of performing in RENT, you know exactly
WHO you will be in RENT and what your bio will say
. . . you wear Mark glasses even though you don't need glasses
. . . you want to change your name to Mimi Rapp when you become famous
. . . your idea of a pick up line is: 'Would you light my candle?'
. . . you are reminded of Roger and MIMI when ever you drip candle
wax on yourself
. . . you have changed the sounds on your computer to be cuts from RENT
. . . you and your friends all get together and throw a La Vie Boheme
party and go through the entire cd and sing and dance on the tables,
eat the foods that they mention in the song and dress up as the
different characters.
. . . when asked your name, your respond "they call me... they call
me... Mimi."
. . . you have straight blond hair, blue eyes and fair skin, and you
are willing and even eager to dye and perm your hair, get brown
contacts and spend hours, even days in a tanning booth just so you
can play Mimi
And best of all . . .
. . . you have a bigger heart than you ever thought possible
