Biography:
I am a homeschooled Christian who reads old, dusty books and writes pathetic excuses for stories. I'm also trying to master the violin, though at this point, it sounds more like I'm trying to shove a cat into a toaster. Forever in need of critiques.

Gasp! Our violins must have traded notes on how to behave. I've mastered the piano, and every time I attempt to use that pitiful declaration to set the violin's mind at ease, it grows indignant and screeches, Do I look like I have friggin' keys? A beautiful instrument. From Czechoslovakia, yet. I can imagine its previous owner, three feet beneath the daisies on some peaceful, country hill, rolling in his grave at the projected sound of the torture to which I so consistently subject his instrument.
I digress. I was homeschooled, too, from fifth grade through my high school graduation. Three cheers for the non-conventional. ^_^ ... And for the uncanny apparent similarities between us. You mention that you are Christian - the school which I attended pre-homeschooling was a private Catholic school, mass every Wednesday and the whole nine yards.
Next you'll end up saying that your favorite color is blue, and I'll have no choice but to arrive at the conclusion that we are long-lost twins or some such thing. Twins who just happen to have been born eleven days apart. It was a, ah, long labor. xD Haha, very nice to meet you.
Yes it is! It's from the movie called "Merlin's Magic Shoppe of Mystical Wonders". And I believe Tom Servo did the "twinkle...ah, that's all I can manage" quote.
XD
That episode all but killed me, I was laughing so hard.

I'm so glad you liked mine too. I am neither homeschooled nor Christian nor a violinist, as so many people here seem to be, but I am horrible at piano!
