Playing the Violin

So I've been going to violin lessons for about a month now. It's been pretty hectic and very different from how I was taught a long time ago - I love it.

I have learned so much, that it's really unbelievable. I mean, I don't think I even learned this much in the 4 years I played before. Well it's understandable since you can't really proceed fast with a child but still - pretty amazing.

List Updates!

My face when I realized I had totally ignored the fact that I own テルミドール.
This entry is really just about list updates, since I updated a lot. My Nana song list got quite a makeover, mainly by songs just switching place A LOT. However, before I get on with my updates I have to point out something that happened today. For the past few days I've had this feeling that I should ogle at my Nana Mizuki Livedom -Birth- at Budokan DVD, so I did today and HA what do you know. She sings テルミドール in it! How the hell did I never pay attention to that??? I've had テルミドール sitting on my shelf all this time!! I suck. Oh well, at least it gave me something very lovely to watch tonight. xD

Cheque, please.

Okay so I thought the unbelievable day I had yesterday deserved a blog entry, so here it is. I really don't know whether the day was hilarious or just really shitty, because it felt like I consecutively had the worst and the best luck possible.

I should mention the whole mess was triggered last Monday when I went to request a cheque from the bank. Another good point of note is that cheques are really uncommon in Finland, we have never really gotten into the habit of using them like the Americans or even Brits. Things just work better with well, means that are not so old-fashioned. So yes, I went to request a cheque. An international cheque. After much perplexity from the bank employee we got things rolling and they told me it should be done in a few days and they'd call me then.

And now, let's zoom ahead to Friday 9/9.

Dance Dance Dance


So I finished another Murakami book today - Dance Dance Dance. Oh and for the record, I have read more than just the ones I've written about on here - I just feel compelled to write about some and not the others, even though I have thoroughly enjoyed all of them.
