I highly suggest taking private lessons. Do not think you will be able to learn with only a few lessons. Even my violin teacher who has been playing for over twenty years still takes lessons! When I started out I had the...

g4llowscalibrator replied to your post: I have no idea what I’m doing.

The Iraq War is officially over.
noordinarymuslim:
Over 1 trillion dollars spent.
4,486 US troops killed.
Over 1 million Iraqis killed in or as a result of the war.
Over 3 million displaced by the war.
Iraq, once one of the wealthiest and best educated countries in the Arab world is now in shambles. This is the cost of “freedom.” Are we at the part where they thank us yet?

“Fives are sensitive; they don’t feel adequately defended against the world. To compensate for their sensitivity, Fives sometimes adopt an attitude of careless indifference or intellectual arrogance, which has the unfortunate consequence of creating distance between themselves and others. Trying to bridge the distance can be difficult for Fives, as they are seldom comfortable with...
