Finally got some free time to practice, I've been so busy and I really do hate neglecting my violin. I think wastage really is one of the worst crimes, an instument that's not played and loved, vegetables unharvested, good food thrown out, and so forth. A whole week with hours of free time a day, lovely. It's also been too long since I've been to a lesson, yargh.

On another note, I'm going to see the Iuventus Quartet in Dublin's National Concert Hall tomorrow lunctime. Really looking forward to it. Although, riddle me this: why are violinist lasses always so pleasing on the eye?

Current: Simple folk songs.
Future: Master 'Bridge 6'.
