I asume it was no option to get a new violin out of financial reasons..my that mst have been a feeling of loss and frustration, I am so sorry!
Well, in my case, when I discovered singing/acting as my soul and path f lfe..wile I grew I often was ill, with sinuses and tonsils...you can magine the rest..I even got the "kissing syndrome/mononucleosis" for so so so many weeks I had almost skipped 2/3rd of a year, let alone finding back to voice and singing..my singing teacher (we are friends...since I moved o Vienna I didn't have any lessons) said she always felt so sorry I was ill so much. I am seriously thinking on starting though. I stated acting again as well as singing, but it takes long and I still have many worries and blockades and and and....but that is why I want to move to NYC..to get both trained again and find back to here I started, and then develop hopefully the way I always wanted.
But seriously your story is more heart breaking, I mean your loss was so rapid, sudden, unexpected, unwanted, brutal...I really really feel with you, even though it is such a long time ago!

nope, no option for a new violin or Juliard school..too damn poor.. but boy, you have a rare soul, Lia..it's like you can feel people (not sure if i make sense)..it's weird. i was just like you.. ill all the time with same things (sinus, tonsilitis, every week i had it!) ..it's scary.
i missed a lot of classes, except the violin.
but you can do it, you still have time, you're sooo young (but oh so mature)..if you move to NY , i swear somehow i''l come and visit you. i used to live in NY for 4 years... in my 20's. i just didn't take advatge of it..i fucked it off..
keep in touch, you're very special person

what age did yu start? I think I started end of 5 beginning 6. I really really wanted it, And getting rid of it in early adult hood is so painful and difficult. LoveHate. Ah...I started singing training right afetr/meanwhile
^
i started when i was six..in Russia..i played piano since 5, and then they decided that i had the hands, the fingers and the neck and something else for majoring in playing the violin..so i did, until i was 18, and then we moved to US, but they confiscated my violin at the airport (another sob story, sorry)..so my orchestra career was over and i just went down the wrong path in life for awhile, because i didn't know how to do anything else.
as far as singing, i can't sing if my life depended on it, haha :)

I layed for 12 years my self, I have my vilin with me on Malta, I started playing a bit again for my music, I start adoring her again, but those things ar always a process.
Very strange pictures, adore them for that, as well, thanks forshaing as always, miss!!! :-D

i haven't done layering that much, only a couple of times..i have this strange fear of ruining a polaroid if i don't like the results (i should take more risks, that's for damn sure). i have a BUNCH of "bad" polas that i've been wanting to scratch and twist and paint ..but i can't get motivated...sad really
i couldn't look at my violin and listen to classical music for awhile..it hurt too much..but now it's better, i still won't practice tho :)
thank you so much for liking these, means a lot!
love your website and your singing voice :)
