a step closer to the dream

I'm now a step closer on learning how to play the violin....... I'll be starting my classes in December...... But I have to keep my word with mom that I'll be the one who's going to pay for the violin which would slash about 4500Php of my savings! and she's just going to pay for the lessons......... Anyways, I really hope that I would really learn, and get to be good at a certain thang. HAHAHAHAHAHA! Aja!

Frustrated to play the Violin

This year, I realized that I have NO talent. I can write, but that that good, I can speak but not that good, i can sing but not that good. Gosh. What then is my forte? I got more conscious about it when I came to realize how talented my friends are: Audrey's good in writing as well as speaking, Sherica's good in photography, web design and photo manipulation, Plinky's good in drawing... same as Paul, Vanessa's good in Badminton, and Allan's good at Math. They get to compete out of school because of their talents........... Well..... I also go compete outside. But not that often............................. Then I started gaining interest on Violins........ and now that I know someone can teach me, and I also to discover my talent, I'm getting more engrossed about learning...................... Hahaha I actually can't sleep last night thinking how I could squeeze it into my schedule. I hope mom would let me learn the violin....... I hope she really does.

My dream: to play the VIOLIN.

We heard mass today........ And I saw a an old lady playing the violin for the choir. I'm really interested to know how to play the violin. There's no music schools here in the place I live, and the nearest is an hour of driving away. So I asked mom if she could ask the lady if she could teach me.............. After the mass we approached the lady and asked if she could teach me, and she said yes. She asked me to stretch my left arm to see what size of the violin suits me. She said I was big and what I needed was a full-length violin. I was already starting to feel excitement. Mom asked how much were supposed to pay..... and she's asking for 400Php per hour............ Augh...... that's big. We walked home for the church is just a walk away........ Now, mom asked me if I'm sure that I want to learn..... She told me that I have to practice everyday to polish what I will learn so that I don't need to practice again, as well as not to waste the money when I see my teacher. I'm willing to practice everyday. But what I'm thinking about if I still have time because I always have lots of things to do after school aside from homework.............. I really want to learn....... but I don't want to waste the money (because it'll cost us about 20,00Php! Oh my!) if ever the lessons don't turn out good. And I still have to maintain my academics and my work as the school government president.......... Ohw..................
