What are you talking about? It's ridiculously difficult. I used to take violin lessons that failed badly (half because I was so tired during those lessons).

*clings*

violin isn't that hard

you aren't that hard.



ohhh snapppp.



wait.

[ALTDOMAIN]

@mana
hahah
I own that set of animations that had this on there
that dude's nutty.

wut wut wut
no way
it was probably because you were tired
violin is incredibly easy
you just have to be okay with sucking for the first few months
then it's all about learning hand motions

It was difficult to just hold the bow right and keep my arm parallel to the floor and my fingers pressing on the strings to much made them ache or something. I must sound like a wuss, but it was so much more difficult than piano.

[ALTDOMAIN]

GRAMMAR I KNOW NOT.

LoL

caps excuses me from proper anything.
LET ME LOOK LIKE AN IDIOT IN PEACE PLEASE.
> w >


@ Mana
sounds like you had a strict a** teacher.
you needed to be more relaxed
you get mad cramps if you dont' get taught how to relax when you first start

its absolutely fine if you're not tense otherwise

arm doesn't need to be totally parallel to the floor either
that would look silly
plus you need your entire arm to bow otherwise you'll get tired really fast

sorry you had a bad violin experience
; o ;

[Mana Mateus]

Wait, not parallel, I mean, left arm not resting on your ribs or something like that. And yes, it was pretty tense.

The teacher would take the first 10 minutes of the lesson tuning the violin. The sound of it drove me into drowsiness, before we begin, and the sound of my bow on the strings made awful noises. I think I was doing a D, but I can't remember.

[ALTDOMAIN]

fff ten mintues
wow that's a long time for a teacher
XD
that would be like almost half my entire class if my teacher did that.

and ah yeah I see what you're saying
well if you had a better teacher it probably would have been less grueling
*fluffs you*

[The Alebat]

*pretends my guitar class was super intense*

[Yosuke-Senpai]

*Does likewise for my uber-intense Saxophone lessons* >_>

[ALTDOMAIN]

LoL

; o ;
alex could pwn me at gutair
I never figured otu those sheets you sent me before

I was just wewt gutair
*gets it out*
stares for a second
*plucks a string or two*
okay that was ... fun
*puts everything away and pretends I didn't just do that*

[The Alebat]

intense, extreme, intense, extreme.


@Cory: hmph >w < so that's what happened.
