nerding out about violin

What can I say?
I look at my diary (the one I manually write in :L) and I'm reading what I think about my violin playing.
And it sounds like yoyo-ing!

Yoyo-ing as in,
Week 1
I need to do well in violin. Today's lesson was a bomb, I played so damn bad and I just realised exactly how far I am from getting it together.

Things to work on:
-intonation
-speed (keep it constant)
-rehearsal
-accents (sforzandos emphasis)
-fast parts
-dynamics

-chords
-lead in to Finale
-octaves!
-hemiolas
-accents (don't rush them)
-fifths double stop passage
-intonation melody line

Week 2
Ahh.. I practised 2 hours a day, and I'm closer to being alright, but still not enough. Kind of dispirited.

-don't speed up!
Beethoven is pretty good actually

-intonation
-play it slow
-chord bit
-everything else in week 1

Week 3
Feeling not bad this time, I did ok (:

Later.. (after rehearsing with the piano)

D: I played so terrible. My concert is next week and I didn't have enough time to get it together with the piano. My rhythm is terrible and my self doubt keeps getting in the way of my memory.
Need to practise moreee..

In conclusion,
I think I have bipolar :L
