Frustration.
Jul. 24th, 2002 11:30 pmSo after much neglect I picked up my Viola today. I have determined that I'm really fucking good at it and I'd be nuts to give it up.
*smackes head against wall* But what do I want to do?! I mean, being a classical musician is all fun and good but it can be a hard lifestyle. As is an independant musician.
I dunno, just gotta live for the here and now.

Or pursue both independently, even. Plenty of people who play more than one instrument, or do more than one thing. Hell, several members of the Mediaeval Baebes (http://www.mediaevalbaebes.com) are in a goth band.
THAT DOG HAS A PUFFY TAIL!!!!

One of the many dreams I had was going to OCAD and becoming a graphic designer. I decided to stick with programming, as it's something I love to do for work, just not as a hobby, and do digital music and art on the side when I feel inclined.
OH MY GOD
