I love reading these blogs so I decided to start one :) It will mainly include goals and if I reach them, since that's what I'm having trouble with. Some basic things about me: I'm 15, I've been playing the violin for about 4 years (late starter) along with piano (5 years), I'm currently doing the Suzuki method (book 4 soon to be 5) with Wohlfahrt etudes, and I'm a major procrastinator (sp?). My problem now is that I barely get any practice in a week which is horrible since I started late anyway. I'm hoping to start off with half an hour a day to an hour etc. I get discouraged easily, so whenever I pick up the violin I usually end up putting it down moments later. Anyway I'll post my daily experiences with music and whatnot. So yeah...
