My mamma is getting me a viola in a few weeks and I'm super excited, I know it's not really that interesting but I can't wait. I used to play violin when I was a little tacker and my mother got me one for my 11th birthday (which was a big deal because we were, uuuuh, financially challenged). But a few years later when we lost everything my violin went with it and I haven't played in a really long time.

We looked for violas last week but I couldn't find one I liked, I have a vision in my head but violas aren't quite as common as violins and don't have as much of a range. I did see one that was sooo nice, it looked so old and worn, but it was over $1,000.

I'm meant to be getting it within the next few weeks, I don't know if I can wait that long. I know that being 22 I should have some patience, but I want it now now now!!!
Thanks for this!

No I'm not, I used to take lessons when I was 8, but I can't afford anything like that now. I still remember stuff, I don't think it will take me too long to catch up to where I was before.
