Ok... so yeah! As you probably could tell by my "Swimmingviolist" username... I play the Viola. If you don't know what a Viola Is... ask me later and I'll post on it later... or just Google it! LOL :D Ok... So this Guy(his name is Eugene) I play with at Utah Valley University symphonic Orchestra... And he asked me on Facebook Chat if I was going to be in Orchestra next semester? And I said yeah! Eugene then told me that he wanted me to be his stand partner and asked if I needed help! And I said That would be so great!! :D So he told me what I need to bring for my first Lesson.
1. 2 2 Octave Scales
2. 2 pieces prepared
3. I need to bring past Orchestra Pieces!
4. and method books! Luckily not Suzuki!! Thank Heavens! I am finally getting away from Suzuki after 7 years of playing the Viola! :D Woot! :D
Let me tell ya! I am so dang excited! I was worried he didn't like playing with me... or even hearing me play because I am so dang shy! :P But he told me that I have a gift and that I need to play louder and have more confidence when I play! And I totally agree! When I play my best on my Viola and really Playing it. What I mean is, Pushing the bow against the string with all my strength and being able to get the sound out of my viola as much as I can! And I need to tell my self that I can't be lazy any more! I am no longer in High school where I didn't practice and somehow get out of it! he told me that I don't need to pay one thing. All I need to pay in payment is Practicing like crazy for and hour and a half everyday! I guess we will be having Lessons every Friday night... I might need to reset my schedule and see if I can work in the mornings or during the day so I can go in for Lessons on Friday nights! Well, lots to think about! hehehe! Considering that I might be making a pretty big decision to see if I can move in with a friend of mine! She offered me a room today! And I think I might just say yes! But first off... I've got to see the room and get more information about the rent, Bills and what not, and I gotta see if I can save up for a Car that is pretty good price and wouldn't have to spend too much money considering the fact that I am still going to be doing some school next semester even if it is just going to be Orchestra! I Love that class like crazy! :D I haven't enjoyed my time in Orchestra in a Long time! :D Well, I got to work tomorrow. see ya! :D
