it's so unfeminist of me. It's also not punk rock.

Also, when I was in high school, I was supposed to play a flute duet with my friend. I knew the whole thing by heart. I stood up, started to play, and my brain went blank. I ran off the stage hysterical, in front of hundreds of people. My mom and the band director finally convinced me to go back out and try again. Second time was the charm, I guess. And I got an ovation.
