I don't play the violin but I love it and I've always wanted to learn, expecially after seeing the movie Music of the Heart with Meryl Streep. I went out and bought some classical violin music, that movie really inspired me! But I have taken guitar and piano lessons. When I was in school I played the clarinet for awhile then the flute in the band. I think you'd do a great job playing the violin, Aimee!! I say, Do It!!
