I'm facepalming a little bit, given that I said I wouldn't stay up until late hours when I have classes at 8AM in the next morning... Might as well take that back =w=WELL OKAY THIS TIME IT WAS NOT MY FAULT. I WASN'T SLEEPY AT ALL, OKAY? D:
No, but I'm going to tell you why I enjoyed last night quite a lot.
Barbara made me listen to a CD of violin adagios and I totally fell in love with it. Specially a couple of them which she specifically said she was very fond of; and I couldn't agree more with everything she said!
We talked about a ton of random stuff which will probably stay in my thoughts for a good while. But then there's this part of the conversation that I have to mention here:
We talked about to what extent the saying "mankind wants what it doesn't/can't have" would apply to our lives, followed by her agreeing with me when I said that, then, I have a passion for classical music because of my hearing loss and the same happens with foreign languages because I will never be able to properly pronounce everything correctly in any language. Isn't that kind of a very sad way to think about these things? I never thought about that. I was shocked!
At a certain point I was so moved by a specific violin excerpt that I closed my eyes; she thought I was falling asleep but actually I was trying hard not to get my eyes too watery due to the overflowing emotions. Here's your beloved crybaby, everyone! TwT ~
It kinda frustrates me that I never managed to get over my hearing loss when it concerns music, no matter how much I wished for it ever since I was very small. You *can* enjoy a lot out of listening to a beautiful piece of music, but nothing compares to the feeling you get when you are CREATING, REPRODUCING, a beautiful piece of music. I knew that long before she confirmed it yesterday.
Well, we ended up listening to music up until 2AM. Then I went back to my room, but my lack of sleep made me stay awake until past 4AM which means I obviously skipped the first class - DON'T hit me, it was kinda useless! ._.
And now I'm rummaging through youtube videos to see if I find a version close to the one in that CD that I absolutely adored. I can already see myself in the next weekend running to the closest FNAC store to buy it!
See you ~
