learn kung fu
Untitled 4 months ago

I did a year of karate when I was still in elementary school. I guess I’ve always loved the martial arts. They’re just so beautiful to watch, almost like watching a dance. I think Shaolin Kung Fu is especially elegant.

I found out that there’s a Shaolin dojo not too far from here, they train on saturdays which is perfect for me, and it’s pretty cheap too.

First I need to see what the next school year will be like and if I have enough free time, and I need to save some money or find a reliable source of income, then I’m definitely going to do this.

‘Til then, I’m going to workout using the dvd I have. It’s not ideal, but some preparation is always good I think.



Go on a road trip
Untitled 4 months ago

I’ve got something planned in a few weeks time. It’ll be a camping road trip with a friend through Eastern-Europe. I’m especially excited to see the castles in Romania en the nature of Bulgaria.

Looking forward to it! :)



Learn Violin
Untitled 4 months ago

Since I was little I wanted to play the violin, but my parents never wanted me to take music lessons. A few years ago when my father died, my mother finally allowed me to take lessons, however I chose the guitar as my instrument then.

I love the guitar but I kept wanting to play violin as well, so last year I finally decided to buy a violin and in February I started my lessons.

It’s going really well so far. I guess it’s thanks to playing guitar for a few years that I have pretty good control over my left hand, which helps a lot when playing violin.

In just a few months time I’ve already worked on Pachelbel’s Canon in D, a Vivaldi concerto and a Fantasie by Telemann, so things are going really well I think. It’s not as difficult as I thought! :-)

But how will I know when I’ve truly accomplished this goal? Technically speaking I can play the violin, but I don’t really consider myself a violinist yet.

I think my goal will be to play the Gavotte en Rondeau by Bach well, then I consider this goal done.
