Why not?
Why can't a woman have any significance in the Catholic Church? It's possible for a woman to be POTUS, but not Pope, or even a priest? bullshit.

well, this is new...
I can now say I've been peed on by a dog. Yes, my puppy peed on me and my bed this morning. Hoorah.
Summer as of now has been mostly uneventful. Went bowling with a couple of friends, went to a baseball game...yeah. But I have managed to keep the promise to myself that I would go out more and hang out with people more than I hang out at my house. Last night was the first night this summer that I spent at home. Definite improvement over last year...
Also...I'm less than proud to say that I've played my cello once since school ended. I dunno. I just haven't really had all that much motivation with no lessons and no performances or auditions to prepare for. Plus, I take my cello in for maintenence on Monday, so I won't have it for at least two weeks, which sucks. But my viola/violin (for all intensive purposes, he's a violist) friend and I are playing a Beethoven duet once I get my cello back, so that's exciting. And I have a concerto to finish learning, and chair audition excerpts to learn...so after June 18...I'll be back on track. I think it is a good thing that I've taken this break, though. Starting August 25th, I'll basically live in a small practice room, so this break was probably a very good thing for my mental health, if not my cello playing.

1
I graduated from high school on May 22, from a large public high school in a suburb of Phoenix, Arizona. It's always said that it never rains on graduation...well, this time was the exception. But that was okay. Who wants to sit outside in an Arizona May anyway? Not me. I never know what to put for first entries, so I'll put in my facebook about me and go from there.
I'm happy, most of the time, but I can also be irresponsible, forgetful and impatient. I get frustrated far too easily. I love classical music, and all other types of music, except for country. I'll even listen to rap sometimes. Music is what I do, and who I am. If you can't deal with me saying "I can't, I have rehearsal/have to practice" you should probably just go away. Also, if you are going to waste my time being apathetic, go away. If you don't know what apathetic means, please buy a dictionary. I own too many sweatshirts. I love going to baseball games. I like taking pictures. I spend too much money. I have a stack of books knee-high in my room that are waiting to be read, but I keep buying more and reading less. My friends are more of a family than my family is. I am passionate and opinionated. I am constantly searching for who I am and what my place is. I'm not convinced that I've found it or that I ever will. I haven't decided what my impact on this world will be, but rest assured, it'll be big.
So yeah. For the most part, that is me. Also. I read a LOT. If I wasn't going to take the crazy path of a music major, I'd probably do either an English degree, or a psych or sociology or polisci degree. People fascinate me. They also frustrate me to no end. I spend too much time on facebook.
I do feel obligated to say that my views may not match with yours, and that's okay. But I won't hide my views from anyone. And anything is fair game for me to write about.
