Hahaha, thank you XD I feel like such a n00b.
I find it so difficult to use though ! Too many buttons and too many words (like when you submit subscriptions and they're talking licenses and etc.) It's all too confusing for me !

haha yeahhh....I just ignore all the license stuff. But I haven't actually gotten a subscription yet. I should get on that.....after a few more paychecks come in. XD

And don't worry. I think at this point, we've all felt like noobs at multiple times, with the way DA keeps changing the site up. I hope this is the final product.

I meant Deviation ! I'm confused already
I hope there's no more to come... it's been a pain getting accustomed to this.

Was stalking your profile before and noticed you're 17 ANDD you play violin. Sounds like we have a few things in common ! *Is now watching you* Hahahaha, I wish this is one of the few things they should change. I don't like the sound of being watched It's just as bad as "Santa Clause is Coming to Town", with the lyrics of "He knows when you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake".

Kinda creepy, if you ask me

hahaha I know. I spent a good portion of my 3rd grade year afraid to use the bathroom because "God's always watching you!" XD

And, yeah. I haven't been playing it much recently, though. I couldn't squeeze orchestra into my schedule. I'm gonna try to take it next semester, though! ^_^

And thanks for the watch! ^_^

You must be pretty advanced in the instrument !
I lack talent to even think I have the capacity to be in an orchestra

haha well..I learned in an orchestra setting. It's actually a really good way to learn in some ways, but nothing substitutes a private teacher. Unfortunately, I can no longer afford one. >.<'

It's good to learn in an orchestra/strings ensemble. You listen to others other than yourself... which can be rewarding because you can learn different techniques and styles. I think it's a really awesome environment to learn in but I'm too shy to play in front of others XD

I've actually quit learning from a teacher. I didn't want to do exams XD
I just play at home now.

haha actually, being shy myself, I found orchestra to be much better. I hated that I was the only one playing during my private lessons. But playing in the whole group was quite comforting. If I messed up, there's were at least 45+ other people to cover me up! XD

Playing at home is good, too, though. It's kind of what I'm trying to do right now. Though, I feel horrible since I've only picked up my instrument once since last school year. I just don't have the time. T_T

Indeed it issss! I was stressing so much before about my paycheck and such....it felt good to just take the violin out and play for a while. It also made me feel just a wee bit less guilty. XD
