Have any of your parents sent you to some music lessons when you were a kid even though you weren't anywhere as enthusiastic about it as they were?
I have a dream: I'd like to learn to play an instrument but I'm far too old to go to those basic lessons that are probably full of children. In case you haven't noticed, I don't go for a kid anymore. And private lessons are probably difficult to arrange (and they're quite expensive, too, I suppose). And I should buy a cello of my own, too. And those, for a fact, are expensive even if I wasn't investing in a $5-US-millions Stradivarius. Not that there are many of those for sale, anyway... :)
Maybe I'm too old to start doing something most people start at the age of seven or something. Maybe I should just bury this dream. I don't know.
It's, by the way, the Russian cellist Nina Kotova in the picture below.

Listening to now:
'Virginia' by Vuokko Hovatta. I hope she wins the finals but it would seem Teräsbetoni has a lot of prestige for some reason. But 'Virginia' made me cry so fuck metal.
Edit: Okay, Teräsbetoni is going to Belgrad. The return of the crazy Finns. ;)
