I just had a minor success with my violin.
I've been trying to develop a vibrato. However, I've been unable to both press the string down and move my finger. When I try, my hand locks up.
However, today I managed to do it!

Good job! I play a little viola. I've also written a little for it. They are both fun instruments.

Cool.

I can play the viola, but I haven't for a while because mine needs repairs and I lack money.

Just one exam to go!

Hurray for...

Family and a tight-knit circle of friends that love me for who I am, and appreciate my unique mind.
Movies. They keep me entertained and make me forget my troubles.
Herds of turkeys hanging out in front of my window every day at 5:30pm.
Obsessions. Without them I would be lost.
My memory foam mattress!
Ebay resolving the issue of being ripped off for a $50 mushroom cloud poster I bought, in a timely fashion!
My Russian penpal's hilarious rants about NT society!
Receiving my hazmat gas mask in the mail today!

Half a rave, half a rant: -
Over suspicion, insecurity and intimidation made me act like I did before... now someone clarified everything to me I no longer feel the need for that false ego... and being proud and stuck-up like before.

Much more natural and easy going now... still in a mess but it's decreased ten-fold.

The rant part is the fact that now I feel some constant sadness... nothing major but it's there... and I kinda feel like my ego, false though it was, has been crushed.

I'm just glad to find a forum where everyone is the same and there are no people to insult you or discriminate you because of your Autism.

I'm getting a new cat this weekend. If she's still available for pickup by the weekend, I'll be getting a very pretty Maine Coon who was abandoned in Florida two years ago. She also survived a major hurricane.

I got to hold a beautiful, sweet, adorable little dog today! He was so loving and empathetic; when he looked at me and responded to my voice, I just wanted to start sobbing; he was such a beautiful innocent little treasure. I was scared I would hurt him, I was gentle with him but I loved every moment I could see him, and touch him.

Ana, you're thinking negative. Still, that sounds great. I would probably feel sort of the same if I were holding a kitten. I would name it either Midna if female, or Sunset if male.

When I started reacherching communism in grade 10, something inside of me sparked...
I don't know what it was-the feeling inside of me
part of it was rebellion-wanting to be my own man
and damnet I was!
I didn't care what anyone thought, who knew (not my parents, people at the hobby store, no one!) I learned russian, got an authentic russian jacket, joined the canadian communist party
now that I actually look back on it-it wasn't about what it was-could have been anything
it was the control I had over myself!
It gave me something to be, something to have
and I knew all about it so to argue :lol:
I miss feeling that power of having a beleif, a drive in life...
I guess I miss being a communist :lol:

Whoa! I did the same thing, except I was in ninth grade, I didn't learn Russian and I almost ran away with a Canadian communist pedophile. Er. Uh.

Time for a rave.

Tomato soup is great! Except I don't have any.

good that you didn't
you seem happy...

It was a feeling I never had before and I want it back-I was confedent in myself-I knew what I was saying, and it felt good to have something to beleive in. Obviously my parents didn't like it, more so my dad-my mom just didnt like the jacket :lol:
my dad seems to be the type if you don't beleive what he does he'll get mad :roll:
