Music is Love

Yay I just re-stringed my pipa and played it for the first time since...concert? Playing an instrument is like...riding a bicycle or ice-skating. If you haven't done it in a while your standard kinda goes down. So at first I was super appalled by how I couldn't really get the hang of playing and had horrible yinse. Luckily after half an hour it got better. :)But the calluses on my left hand are gone so it hurt a lot pressing the strings. Plus I've been keeping my nails long for prom which got into the way slightly. But haha I really miss my pipa! It's been too lonely for the past 6 months so I really ought to spend more time with it. :)
Isn't it strange that sometimes you think that you love something a lot, then one day suddenly realise that you really don't and the only reason why you've stuck to it is cos you're used to it? And on the other hand, you may think that you no longer miss something anymore, but one day you think of it and you're shocked at how much it still aches your heart. :/
I wonder when I shall get to play in a CO again? I thought I wouldn't miss it (I used to think I was sick of playing pipa and only went for the company of friends) but it seems like 6 years of habit is hard to kick. :P The only thing that could possibly be more fun than hanging out with friends is perhaps making music together with friends! :D
