I used to play the violin back in the fourth grade. I was really good at it.
I had a strong temper back then, though. I used to break the bow whenever I got angry. Soon, my parents stopped buying new ones. Then I broke the violin too. The end. |

Abu Hazim replied, "Because you have built and established this world and you have destroyed your Aakhirah, so you hate to go from what you have established to what you have destroyed." |

I used to play the violin when I was in primary school, but gave up because I was not being "stretched" with exams (I gave up alot of things if I was not being entered for exams) I also played the piano, that continued into my teenage years, I wouldn't say I could play the violin now, but I can still tinkle on the piano. But I still have my violin, no piano anymore.

Nowadays, I wish I had the violin as well as a real piano. I'd love to be great at all instruments, as a matter of fact. |

i played violin for five years.
i got pretty good, but then i stopped having time to practice... and it snowballed. i was afraid of how out of practice i would sound, so i didnt practice. my violin (an absolutely gorgeous, ridiculously expensive one i'd persuaded my parents to get me) sat unused for a year or two, until my parents took it back to the violin shop to be re-sold, when i left for college. a few months ago, they got a phone call that someone had bought it ![]() it was all my fault though. i should have kept with it. now i miss it and want to pick it up again

Violins are cool. I like them best when there's a lot of them all together.

I've always wanted to learn the violin but my parents wouldn't finance it.
Maybe I should buy one for myself and become an autodidact violinist. How do you go about buying a violin? What should you look for and what's a good price?
