I am totally jealous. you're jealous that i'm a flutist? lol. it's not that glamorous. i don't perform as much as i would like and i mostly teach kids. I'm jealous of all professional grade musicians. I use to play the piano and trumpet but didn't have the patience and discipline to "really" learn them. I totally regret it now! Do you happen to know a young couple named Victoria and Nathan? They're in a very similar profession as you. |
