I had a viola lesson yesterday with Csaba Erdelyi. He is an internationally known performer at Bowling Green. He has won international competitions, and in fact, is the only one to win a violin competition on the viola. Some international competition was for violin only except for one year they opened it up for violas and he ended up winning. Can you imagine how much talent it takes to win a violin competition on viola? And he is teaching me!!!
I did really well at the sewing thing. It is statewide, and I was competing against an adult and a girl who went to nationals last year. I got first place with an outfit that I made for Makenzie. The girl that I beat was so mad! She came thinking that she had the whole thing won. when we went to get our prizes, which were a piece of wool among other things, she pushed me out of the way to get the piece that I wanted, but I don't really care because I beat her. She was so smug last year, I hope that takes her down a notch.
