On a personal note - waiting for my man to come home.
Will waste another sunny day in my computer screen beams.
Ooh, just had chicken flavoured buckwheat porridge - not sure what to make of it.

Strings!
God, how I love Antonio Vivaldi!
I'm really loving his Double Cello Concerto RV531 Allegro at the minute.
Also Flute Concerto Op. 10, No.2 'La Notte'.
Yeah, the titles don't really say much, but Vivaldi says it all!;)
Have been home alone which means I've played the violin a lot.
A small list for myself, consisting of songs I can play (mind you, I'm hardly grade 2):

Getting started
Right, I planned to do this in my mother tongue, but since I don't have all the letters on my keyboard...English it is. Um, so what has happened recently?
Health wise:

Good things:
Health wise:
I'm on unpaid sick leave.
Cause I've been sick for eight years and have finally had enough of doctors telling me I'm fine according to their test results and asking me for a diagnosis.
Yeah, made an ultimatum to my doctor that can backfire but...fingers crossed it'll work.
Personal:
Well, since my health has hit rock bottom, nothing much has happened in the wowza! area. However I managed to get one little nightly shenanigan done with my boyfriend two nights ago. ;P
Yeah, but that's not enough for a 23 year old girl!
Good things:
- Dried Brush tooth lizard fish (salted)
- Classical music (strings and Vivaldi - wow!)
- The user dsharptheviolinist on Youtube (check him out!!)
