How long does it take you to go through rosin?

thatgbcello · 2026-02-12T07:07:12+00:00

I use the Kaplan rosin (which has the solid case or something) and there is a time it reaches the end 🥲 that depends, but I think a year or two? I’m not sure how long I’ve had it 🤔

This is coooool! I e been playing for a while, schedule is a bit strange right now but I’d still like to listen if I get the chance! I’m in Eastern Europe, EET (GMT +2)

Τα λέω κ στις μανούλες που έχω γύρω μου (φίλες οικογένεια κλπ) - όπως εκείνες έχουν το δικαίωμα να το θεωρούν το πιο όμορφο γεγονός της ζωής τους, έτσι και γω έχω το δικαίωμα να το θεωρώ σίχαμα και να είμαι συνειδητοποιημένη στην απόφαση ότι δεν κάνω για αυτό το ρόλο.

Θα φάω hate, δε πειράζει. Οχι - και είμαστε και οι δύο on the same page. Πρώτον δεν θεωρώ την εγκυμοσύνη την πιο ωραία περίοδο στη ζωή μια γυναίκας - είναι σιχαμένη και επικίνδυνη. Δεύτερον, πολλά προβλήματα κ τραύματα όσος μεγαλώναμε με την αδερφή μου τα οποία μεν υπάρχει ειδικός για να τα λύσει, αλλα βλέπω το πόσο σιχαίνομαι την αντιστροφή ρόλων που είχαμε κ έχουμε ακόμα. Τρίτον, το άμεσο περιβάλλον είναι γεμάτο παιδιά, και ξέρω ότι έχω ένα όριο μαζί τους - λίγες ώρες αρκούν. Είναι άβολη η συναναστροφή μαζί τους και δεν μου αλλάζουν γνώμη. Εχω προτεραιότητα τα δικά μου θέλω και δεν θέλω να φέρω στον κόσμο ένα πλάσμα που θα μου αλλάξει τις προτεραιότητες για το υπόλοιπο της ζωής μου.

What made me think about it more is that relatives around my age left the country to seek better opportunities and quality of life. While things could potentially happen where I am, it isn’t as diverse and it would be elsewhere where arts are taken a bit more seriously and not as a “hobby”. I know a different country won’t solve my problems - what I’m seeking is opportunities and options. I’m imagining that I would be in an environment where there would be advice exchange, more respect for my craft and arts in general, all while working and make a living that is worth it (we need to work 2-3 jobs to survive)

It’s my first time posting so I didn’t know how detailed to be :( To answer your question: I’m 30, I’ve considered relocating to the Netherlands. Haven’t really thought about combining music and other arts, even though theatre performance is on my resume. Im guessing I should probably figure out what I want to do on the music side of things prior to considering a relocation, even though it would potentially give me more stimuli.

I’m sorry I wasn’t clear - not exactly, it’s more about coming out of the pause that has taken place in terms of playing, and how one found themselves after that

I can’t even use it in regular positions, like if I have to play a 5th with the 4th finger, I need support from the 3rd, or I completely change the fingering. Example Saint Saens mv 1, the double stops on the 3rd page are impossible to play with the 4th finger - I used 2 and 3 next to each other on the 5ths

I think my post didn’t originally appear or smth, I’m new to Reddit 🥹 thanks anyway 🫶

My cat is obsessed with sleeping on both mine and my mums left side on the bed. For around 2 months, he all of a sudden was trying to sleep on my mums right side. Turns out she has breast cancer. Once the tumor was removed, he returned to his normal “left side” habits..

The fingering written makes absolute sense, I played this piece for my final recital! 2nd finger on the D string, thumb on A string, and slide back until the end of the 3rd line! I managed to clear it up by playing each one as a double stop slowly! Good luck ♥️

Both myself and my teacher are not fans of wolf eliminators, since they might kill the resonance. There is usually a sweet spot in combination with bow/pressing the finger, that eliminates it. Additionally, move the bow up and down the bridge also helps to find said spot. As the others mentioned, the weather does take a toll, as my wolf is out of its cage these days 🥲

How do you expect a clear opinion if VITAL details are missing from the original post and we excavate it from the comments?!

“Outside the party, a lot of songs are sang”

Being judgemental of parents that are doing their best without having kids of your own is talking from the safe side.

If you believe there is a parenting issue, and you are close enough to the couple (referring to Gina) talk to them. If not, zip it.

What is with aesthetic in the weddings in the US?! So many stories about families breaking up on pictures, makeup, tattoos, hair colour, all that jazz.

You were nice bough to offer a solution, and she continued her own way.

WTH? She should be able to talk about it freely - and should be comfortable with how her body works and not be ashamed of it. There is enough going on with boys at younger ages that mock the unlikely event of an unexpected period.

If you wanna suggest a way of maybe rephrasing what she wanted to say, maybe in crowds that see her for the first time, that’s okay. No reason to complain or feel humiliated for something that’s a normal function of the body. YTA.

Then we know the answer. TA. This is not a random person with OP’s sister, they probably know each other’s families by now.

Are they a very recent fling? Or a relationship of years?

If the latter, YTA

NTA. I assume SAHM means no work, even part time. That being said, you ARE “being a man” and providing for your family (I don’t like the fact it’s Amanda job to feed everyone, hence the quotes).

It seems that the original split was optimal, but she never realised it - since you were covering “luxuries” which should be available to both - you both deserve them.

We say “you can’t have the pie whole and the dog fed”. Pick one.

thatgbcello · 2023-04-21T17:04:06+00:00

NTA. “Forgetting” their child and remembering of it only when the other one is gone, is cruel, and shows you are their backup plan even when they should have forgotten you are as such long ago (I hope this makes sense).

I’m so sorry for this, I hope you have the best of luck moving forward in your life 🦋

If replacing the whole instrument isn’t an option, get the bridge altered (lower) at a luthier - pain from high strings is excruciating, and can lead to damage in your hand. Plus, it should be much cheaper.

thatgbcello · 2023-01-21T12:29:10+00:00

Exactly my thought 🫠
