Oh wow, thank you so much for this thoughtful message! I'm glad you could relate to what I said about practicing socializing! I'm a rlly socially awkward person, but when I think about how I used to be, even a few years ago, I realize that I have gotten a lot more confident overtime! I really enjoyed exploring around your website. Your page on fashion was especially interesting to me, you have a really cool style! :3
I really like the book cubbyholes-shelf! I feel completely the same about the deeper meanings. As a kid after reading things like Narnia and Harry Potter, it sometimes took a while to get out of the magical world in my head.
Your violin teacher sounds like a great person who gave you a solid foundation! Is the 'meowing' like an unwanted portamento effect? And, I related so much to everything you wrote about recording your own performance. I have had the exact same thoughts as you, even with me as the one recording someone else. But I’ve since learned that great musicians perform the same whether there’s a camera in their face or not,
…and I’ve been amazed by that. My impostor syndrome would be happier if I had no record of me playing ever, but I guess having the documentation outweighs everything else, especially with something like a live performance that never happens twice. Plus I can just delete the footage if it’s really rubbish. I hope you get another chance!
