I feel so guilty for never practicing. -_-
I mean I just get so damn LAZY about it. For people like Alex, practicing is fun. For people like me, it’s just work. Work work work. Practicing is not discovering new techniques to be used with the instrument, nor is it creating a new song or “jamming”…

• mozart: hi there
• mozart: so i'm going to write an eighth note followed by two sixteenth notes and a sixteenth grace note attached to the eighth note but i want you to play them like four sixteenth notes okay
• mozart: i'm also going to mark these notes staccatissimo but i want you to play them on the string
• mozart: actually i'm not going to tell you whether they're on the string or off the string, i'll leave that for scholars to debate over for the next couple hundred years
• mozart: problem?
