La bohème
A four-act opera by Giacomo Puccini about eight friends in Paris who are broke, sick, and barely survive because they're too lazy to get a real job. RENT is just La bohème with better hair and worse life choices.
My roommate thinks he's Rodolfo. He's not. He's Benoît with a bad attitude.
I tried to be a poet like Rodolfo. Now I'm just a poet who can't afford coffee.
Musetta would've kicked my ass for being late to the party.
