finally cool stuff coming...

May 17, 2007 at 3:56 PM

The past six months have been a little crazy. For a bit I had to put my lessons on hold to concentrate on work, and you all will get to see the results of that soon. It's the new cinematic from Blizzard for you gaming fans.

Other cool news is, I'm continuing lessons again starting tonight. I'm so looking forward to improving. My goal of being a surf rock violinist is still quite a ways off!

Next is the strings conference in San Diego. I signed up, and get smiley every time I mention that indeed, I'm going to "Band Camp". I hope to meet some other enthusiasts for strings there too. Let's face it, it's not all that popular, feels lonely sometimes, but I'm used to that. I've got some very odd hobbies.

If it's Starcraft 2 I will love you forever, my good friend.
If anything else, may Blizzard be forced to listen to a group of young Suzuki students saw away on twinkle twinkle little star for 12 hours everyday.

Hee hee, well, you'll just have to wait and see on the 19th.

Luckily, I'm beyond Twinkle. But they do have to hear me saw on the violin at night and the mornings.

I'm from san diego and have attended the mark o'connor strings conference a few times. Unfortunately i wont be able to attended this year as it's quite pricey but you're definitely in for a fun time just don't forget to bring a tape recorder!
