Clueless classical musician seeks normal friends
Look for an interesting and intelligent non-musician to befriend. What do normal people think about, talk about, and do? Please show me.
(craigslist, here I come!)
Haiku!
I must figure out
how I can keep the bow straight
and keep my wrist loose.
The keys feel strange to my left hand because of my newly-forming calluses. I’m particularly proud of tough skin forming on my index finger. I was happy with the progress I made on viola today in tone and intonation until it all feel away when i was told my constant practicing was annoying someone. And when I loose my only healthy coping mechanism, all hell breaks loose.
But right now...
I don't want to need to feel like someone else in...
He told me I need to learn that life isn’t so bad.
That’s what I’d like to do.
So until someone with a degree answers the phone
I will allow myself to do nothing
and have no obligations
with nothing to gain
and nothing to loose
in a world that may or may not
be so bad.
