😃 That's why there's a Chit chat part, for random stuff, like this topic. 😃 So yeah, who here plays violin and likes it? I've been playing it for a few years now...

I play the viola and I love it😊 Now that I think of it... I need some new rosin lol

awesomeness365 • 22 July 2012 at 7:24 PM

@rileytibbles_side: I know, I'm starting to run out of rosin, too. 😃 I tried viola once in my school orchestra. It was pretty fun, not bad. 😊 Nice sound to it.

Hey, I play violin 😊 I'm not very good, though ^^; (been playing for maybe 2 years? ouo;)

awesomeness365 • 22 July 2012 at 7:39 PM

@replica: 😊 Yeah, I'm not that good, either. I've been playing for, like, 5 years now, and I'm still horrible. XD

@awesomeness haha I know how you feel, one of my best friends has been playing for maybe 7 years, I am so jealous of her skills! 😋 do you play by book? 😊

awesomeness365 • 22 July 2012 at 7:47 PM

@replica: Yeah, I play by the Solos for Young Violinists books. 😊 My sister's pretty good, though. What do you play by?

I Play violin, Its okay I've only played for a year though. I started in 7th grade beginners, so our teacher tried to teach us 2 years of playing in one year. Were okay, though I've always wanted to play guitar :\

awesomeness365 • 22 July 2012 at 7:51 PM

@bunnyshadow: Yay! Go violins and violas! And cellos and basses. And pianos. And.... all the other instruments. 😃

bunnyshadow • 22 July 2012 at 8:05 PM

@awesineness365 I also play piano xD

@awesomeness365

I've been playing for....... oh god. um. over 15 years, that's all i'll say. PS, i'm old 😃; i didn't start shockingly young or anything either. but i did get the amazing chance to play in a professional pub crawl in dublin, and i've been obsessed with irish fiddle ever since. i can and do play classical stuff, but uh. most of my practice time i spend derping around playing irish riffs.

awesomeness365 • 23 July 2012 at 9:17 AM

@bunnyshadow: Same here!!! I also play! I've only been playing for like, 2 1/2 years, though. 😃

@replica: Hmm, I've never heard of it. I used to use Suzuki, but my teacher usually switches his students to Solos for Young Violinists once they're finished with Suzuki #4.

@riffraffie: Woah!!!! Lucky! I've never tried the fiddle before, but I want to. 😊

VIOLA BUDDIES 8DDD

@awesomeness365
I play the Viola c:
And I am awesome at it. And I think I need to go get rosin *goes to store*

awesomeness365 • 23 July 2012 at 10:07 AM

@whispers: 😊 Yeah, I still haven't gotten rosin yet....

spikaya • 24 July 2012 at 3:05 PM

I played the violin for, like, one year in middle school. I was so bad.

... I really want to get back into playing the piano, though. I made the mistake of switching to the violin to play in the school watchimicallit, and hated it.

awesomeness365 • 24 July 2012 at 10:19 PM

@spikaya: Yeah... 😊 Will your parents let you switch back to piano though?

spikaya • 24 July 2012 at 10:34 PM

@awesomeness365

No, but it has more to do with not finding a teacher where we live now and having too much else going on anyways. :

awesomeness365 • 25 July 2012 at 9:27 AM

@spikaya: Oh... ☹️ When we first moved here, we had a hard time finding a violin teacher, so we had to review our old songs.
