Awesome

[owlmoose]

As an antidote to my earlier post today, and on the flip side, here is a completely awesome project: karenhealey calls on the women of the Internet to tell her why we're awesome.

I just read through all the comments, and the catalog of awesome is a wonderous sight to behold. And it's not just the comments themselves, but also in the beauty of the supportive

Comments

I'm too shy to proclaim my awesome on the journal of someone I've never heard of, so...

I am Katie, and I am awesome because I don't give up because I don't understand something, even if that means repeating a class. I'm awesome because I study the past - not through history books, but through the skies. I'm awesome because I'd rather get dirty cleaning a horse than put on make up. I'm awesome because I put my family and friends before trivial things. I'm awesome because I can make a friend laugh when they're down, and send them comfort when they need it most. And I'm awesome because I can totally hold up a mezzo soprano line in an SSAA piece even though every one else is jumping up to the soprano line. I'm the meat of the song, and I will not bow to the others might! I'm awesome, because I will not compromise my morals to please someone else.

Those are awesome things to be proud of! :) Thanks for sharing them.

And I totally agree about singing in harmony: totally awesome. I've been an Alto I since sixth grade, and I love it. I especially love picking out my own harmonies when I sing along to the radio.

Ha, so do I. And if it's a song that happens to have a harmony, I find myself incapable of singing the melody.

This post, that post, and the others it links to: they are all awesome. I will be back with more awesome once I have read it all, because it is very exciting!

Awesomeness is always exciting! :D I love seeing stuff like this proliferating over the Internet.
