Golfing.... FUN :)

July 3, 2006 at 3:05 PM

Well yesterday I went golfing... Like not real golfing but I went with my sister and my dad to mini golf and then we hit (all together) 150 balls on the range. And I am so sore, I think I pulled something but not sure what yet though. But everytime I play the violin, thanks to this "injury", I can't play for more then about 5-10 minutes at a time. Plus I can't vibrato worth crap. But I am just hoping that the injury "clears" up by Thursday because I have a concert. But I have also been looking into good colleges for the major of "Performance in the Violin". I know where I WANT to go but I am not sure (almost positive) That wont happen. Does anyone have any suggestions of colleges? I would like it to be in the north eastern US. Thanks!

My teacher went to Eastman. I think she played the Tchaikovsky for audition.

Don't go somwhere near home for university, move out of home, it's much better that way because nobody else will be a home really. Also, it makes you grow up a hell of a lot and it's the best fun. Pity you're not allowed to drink until you're 21 in America though!
