Oh no, my bow!

During her practice this afternoon, Renee pointed out to me that there's a crack line on the top of her bow but thinking that it's not much of a concern, I told her to ignore it. But, half way through her practice, the bow 'crack' and it broke! and she has to stop her practice. She even asked "oh no, how am I going to practice now? Or I clap now?"(she meant to practice the rythm by clapping, hahaha. I had thought she would be overjoy to escape practice, :D).

She slept on the way to Gramercy(geez, the bow itself cost S$25!) and when we got to Takashimaya dept. store(almost leaving already actually), she looked at me seriously : "mommy, I think we've forgotten about something. We forgot to buy the bow". Am glad that she's expressing concern over it as that shows that she's keen to learn? :D. In fact, she's less insistent on being awarded the 'stars' for practicing, she only remembers about her 'stars' when she started to crave for her candy hahaha. I really hope that she'll keep up with the good work and attitude towards her violin lessons/practices(errmmm, minus the occasional 'fuss'when asked to repeat hahaha)...

HAHAHA - that's one of my fears. That's why I always keep a spare for every violin. For the same price, I prefer the bow from Synwin. To keep as spare lah. but well, we don't buy such anymore these days. Once any bow becomes a "favourite", it just gets rehaired by the bow maker here in singapore.
