i miss it.

i was watching August Rush today
(fantastic movie, by the way. LOVED it)
and i realized that i get seriously weepy when beautiful music is played. classical, that is. i turn into a frigging water fountain.
and that realization spawned another one:
i miss violin.
a lot.
since i got home, i've just been looking at them, listening to neo-classical music (which is my new favorite genre, i think) and mooning over the fact that i don't have a violin anymore because my brother broke it.
i'm just a smidgen bitter.
i mean...LOOK at this instrument:


just looking at it makes the fingers on my left hand twitch a bit.
it's just...SUCH a beautiful instrument.
all string instruments, to me, are stunning.
cello, bass, and violin in particular.
i swear, as soon as i can, i'm buying a new violin.
