And Fall Begins

As the fall rolls in and the Cal Poly school year begins, so do my endeavours in music education.
Unfortunately, my violins bridge broke in the middle of the summer preventing me from practicing before classes begun.
Being tight on money, this past week has consisted of me trying to fix it on my own. As anticipated, I was unsuccessful.
However, when I look at my attempt in retrospect I realized that this mentorship and the (eventual) fixing of my violin is not just the physical reconnect of parts but MY reconnection with my violin and my passion.
I left my violin unattended for too long, now with stale strings and expanded wood.
Once fixed , we're back in business.
