So Sunday I was sitting in church when I realized that I really really need a violin. No, I don't know how to play the violin. I've never played a string instrument before, but I'm fairly musically inclined and I believe that I can learn how to play the violin. My dad doesn't believe that I'll be able to play the violin. So I asked my mom...my mom said that she believed I could learn to play the violin, but that she was disappointed that we (my sisters and I) didn't play the piano as well as she'd wanted us to play. I can play the piano very well. It is actually sort of my secret. I don't even play piano in front of my parents...sort of like singing, I'm really a decent singer. But I don't sing out loud a lot because I'm afraid that everyone will compare my voice to my older sister's. So then there is the other roadblock...money. A decent violin plus a case plus a bow plus a tuning fork isn't too cheap. And I'm saving up for a few different things right now...so I don't have a lot of extra money. And my parents normally don't just buy me expensive things. My older sister is getting ready to go to college, so that is where a lot of their money is going right now...anyways, my 17th birthday is coming up in October, so I suggested that when my extended family members ask about what I want for my birthday, my parents should tell them about the "Get Hannah a Violin for her Birthday Fund" and donate to that fund...so hopefull, a violin is in my near future. Seriously, I have been having dreams about violins. I'm pretty muich obsessed. I HAVE to get a violin, one way or another.

I certainly hope very much that you are successful in your pursuit of a violin. Of course you would be able to play it, your dad's just crazy.
Love you like a sister, Hannah-chan. :] -

lol. im in the shadow of my older sister a bit too. but i sing anyway... people compare us all the time, just in general, but i dont really care because i know im nothing like her. but if you love to sing you should just sing anyway. and play piano. i used to be really really shy, like i wouldnt even sing in front of my mom, but im slowly getting over it.
and good luck with the violin! you'll be really good. you're very gifted in several ways. loads of people would kill for that. but yeah. i have faith in you.
