Lately :D




So, what's been going on lately here? Well, for one, the Trowbridges,three days ago, were so very kind enough to let me borrow their cello for the summer!!!!!


I have wanted to play the cello for a while, but the thing that really got me to REALLY want to get one is watching Elizabeth Price play it one evening (she was awesome) and i guess she was the last step of inspiration i needed to get one :D


As you can see, its a beautiful cello and i have been having lots of fun with it.


I have learned, from the books the Prices so kindly let me borrow, and thank you Mrs. Price for showing me all that stuff, it was really helpful, all the notes i can play with four fingers on each string (which is the basic fingering, i think, i wouldnt really know, im my own teacher;))and have started playing stuff like Moon River, Phantom of the Opera, a little part of Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 and other cool stuff. I have actually played so much that my finger tips are purple, but that's good. CALLOUSES!!!


On that happy note :D, nothing is really going on here except school and the Banquet is coming up, which reminds me, i should be working on my mask....oops :)
