Introduction	I spend my days trying to sound intelligent in AP classes, pretending that I really can play the violin/cello/piano competently, and reminding myself every five minutes that I need to oil this squeaky chair. I would rather go to the library than shop. I would rather write than talk. I wish the world was cell-phone free.

You can whistle and steam can whistle, so why do you sing in the shower?

Because we have trouble harmonizing our whistling, of course! I'm a prima donna about my singing, so the steam just will have to accompany me while I take the spotlight.
