and when I have a new niche I just talk about it to like everyone like nonstop
Yeah, I do that too. Totally understand. Please feel free to rant…no promises that I won’t ignore you, but by all means go ahead. 😆
Oh, makes sense. And those are legitimate reasons for leaving…I think you were smart to realize that you couldn’t do both. But if you ever do decide to come back, that’d be awesome!
an affair!?!? XD!!!

Yep!
Living in a world of mystery and dangerous predicaments while working with the AWESOME Meraki's.
I can sympathize with you… it was very sad the day I lost my first cello. 😢 I think every cello is special in its own way. 😉
And yes!!! I’ve named both cellos I’ve had. My first was Priscilla, which is fitting since the name means “ancient”, and my current cello’s name is Benedict.
And yes, there is a word! “Divine.” 😛

@parker Good job! Knowing your friend’s cello name is the mark of a good friend or a person who is learning anything cello that they possibly can… Which is how I know almost all the cellist’s cellos’ names from music camp last summer.
@samuel and @emgc Nice cello names!! I love Benedict especially. 🙂 I’ve thought about the names Theodore and Peregrine. When I first told my best friend about naming my cello, I told her it felt like naming a child, I didn’t even know whether it was a boy or a girl yet. Her advice was, “The best way is just let it happen. You have to play it first, get its personality and then it comes naturally.”And @samuel keep on ranting, ’tis fine by me. 😀 That’s what SE is for right? XD I need to look into all that, I love comparing personalities and lining up thought processes work and all that… It’s just fascinating.
@r-m-archer I try to use the same thing for choir and other things, so that’s not proud at all. 😉 Celtic is my flare, but I am trying to learn how to train my voice. I haven’t had too much training, mainly just choir, but I’m slowly learning. I LOVE DISNEY PRINCESS VOICES!!!! Actually… My favorite princess voice is not Disney. I haven’t seen the movie in years, but Anastasia has my favorite princess voice.ACCENTS??? Which ones can you do?? Singing or speaking. I slip into accents all the time for no good reason. The biggest two are English and Scottish.
Tek an ohta! Tek an cala!
I’m best at imitating Belle, I think. I can’t do Elsa at all; I just can’t get that almost growly sound to work. Similarly, I can’t effectively recreate the growly sound of I Won’t Say I’m In Love from Hercules. 😛
I SLIP INTO A BRITISH ACCENT ALL THE TIME. XD Usually not when I’m talking to someone, but if I’m talking to myself there’s a good chance I’m doing it in a British accent instead of my normal voice. XD I can sometimes pull of an Irish or Scottish accent (is it terrible I can’t tell them apart?), but more frequently when I’m singing than when I’m talking; I always sing Touch the Sky in the singer’s accent, lol. I can occasionally do Australian, but I don’t practice it much so it’s not nearly as good as the others.
Good luck with your training! This series by Evynne Hollens might be helpful for you. 🙂

Elsa? Good night, no, my voice won’t do that either. I can’t pull of hard/growly voices at all.
Ha ha, yes… My family is used to my constant accents, although my mom has trouble understanding what I’m saying in some of them. I know it… Irish is hard to pull apart from Scottish.
Oh thanks so much!! I’ll check it out. 🙂
Tek an ohta! Tek an cala!
My sister shares a room with me, so she’s very used to hearing me lapse into an accent. My parents don’t hear it nearly as much because usually I talk to myself while I’m working, lol. I’ve always wondered if my accent is actually as good as I feel like it is or if an actual British person would cringe listening to it, lol. (Someday I want to go to ComicCon and meet some of the British MCU actors and ask them. Two birds with one stone. XD)
Absolutely! I hope it’s helpful. 🙂

I’d have to agree with your friend. Cellos do seem to have their own individual personalities. 😛 I was actually inspired to name mine because of Steven Sharp Nelson from The Piano Guys. Ever heard of them?
And I like the name Peregrine! It’d be fun to call it “Pippin” for short. 😉

*Falls over dead because I adore TPG and it is partially Steven Sharp Nelson’s fault that I want to play the cello*
Well, no it’s not Peregrine Took. It’s Father Peregrine from The Hawk and the Dove. Then Theodore, a character from the same book… I just thought Theo was a cute nickname for a cello. XD
Tek an ohta! Tek an cala!
Ooh, you like TPG!! They’re one of my very favorite artists. 🙂 Have you read Steven’s cello bios then? They’re hilarious… 😀
Ahh, okay. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of that series. But yes, Theo is a really cute name. 🙂

@emgc No I haven’t, but I can imagine!! XD
That is my favorite book… Man, seriously amazing… So naturally, I would want to draw my cello name from it. 🙂
Tek an ohta! Tek an cala!
Yeah, I’d probably do that too. 🙂
Anyways… thank you for talking with me about pretty much my favorite subject ever… 😀 Sorry an introvert invaded your thread… 😛

Have no fears!! I’ve been dreaming (literally) of cellos for the last month or so, so I’m certainly up for cello chatting at any time!!!

GUYS GUYS GUYS I JUST FOUND THIS HELLO EVERYBODYYYYYY
LIKE HI
Anyone have any problems with being both extraverted and socially awkward, which leads to you making every situation uncomfortable for everyone?
Please don’t ask me to tell the Awkward Extraverting Stories™ that I have.
(i legit stole someone’s email address one time)
(and emailed them)
(and they were like um how did you get my email)
(so i was like UHHHHH yeah i stole it)
(and i got them talking about marvel for fifty-ish emails)
(success)
(but i haven’t heard much from them since)
(why do i always have to initiate conversations)
(WHY CAN’T EVERYONE BE EXTRAVERTED)I'm an ENFP - fluent in English, jokes, confusing art teminology, MBTI, and maniacal screaming.
Well, it appears the conversation moves away from cellos and music to extroverts again! XD
And it also appears that we have an extrovert of extroverts (and another ENFP… I think that’s… seven? Or is it six…). XD
@eden-anderson , and @thetessinator Does extroversion end at ordering fast food/checking out at a store for y’all? Courage fails me while ordering food, and I generally get into horribly awkward situations while doing that. I mean, just asking for a refill is awkward for me. XD Just ENFP thoughts…Tek an ohta! Tek an cala!
