| Hello, my long-lost Xanga fiends-er, friends!  So I'm aware it was waaaaaay overdue for a Xanga-page re-do.  I liketh this one. 
Brief update, if anyone's interested: I am now a college grad. That sounds old. And I'm now 22. That's really old. I'm teaching one 10-year-old at a studio in Mesa; hoping to get more students in the fall, but so far I'm just really enjoying teaching. I was scared to start, but I love it now. I'm also looking for a job; I'm feeling it's time to move on from Rubio's (and preferrably food service as well)... and I need to start paying bills. I'm looking at a couple of possibilities; one involves teaching at a school, and one involves (of all things!) window washing. Yes, I know. Odd. But it sounds like fun, and the hours/pay is great. Both options would allow me to continue to teach more students at the studio...we'll see. And for the record, this is the longest period of time in 4 years that my room has been consistently clean. No, my room was not continually messy during college...it just never seemed to *stay* clean. I do not practice 4 hours a day...I'm working on just practicing every day, which is sad...makes me feel like a has-been, especially when I sound gross/rusty. Blech. I'm working on learning a fiddle tune set by ear (from a CD, no music), another thing I hadn't had time to seriously work on the last 4 years.  Oh, and I'm now on Facebook. Yes, there's a good reason. No, I'm not going into it right now.  Anything else you want to know, send me an email.  | | |
| I practiced.  I was happy to practice!-even opening the case last night made me happy! and I played fiddle tunes today.
and it feels....*strange*, physically, to be playing again.
But I did it. I'm a far cry from where I was at my recital, but I am practicing! And happy to be doing so. I love violin.
I'm happy.  | | |
| and... I need to practice. that's the long and the short of it. not at this exact moment, however.
