I found out Acadians are French settlers from the Northeast, Canada mostly, and not like the New York or Pennsylvania Dutch like me.  The exiles were cast to primarily Southern Louisiana, which is New Orleans and Baton Rouge; they are what are known as Cajuns.  They went Down South in the early 1700s.  New Orleans began in the 1600s and Florida in the 1500s.

Tracking Why My Peers End up the Way They Do Socially

Some people are so nice, but of course others are maybe just mean.  People my age, with parents from different generations, are all so humble and empathetically considerate.  I think they hang out with people and I can track their social skills and what they've been doing, it seems in some ways.  I was able to hang out with people as a preteen and teenager, so it brings back memories.  This is just like people who become blind, it seems, who know a lot from before and probably have strong other senses and ways of thinking.  It's interesting, too, to see all their mistakes and feel smarter for it.  They have different lives from me and I seem so bitter next to them, like they're better.  It is sorta permanent because it is hard to see myself getting my social life and opportunities back.  I do exercise regularly but not rigorously.  That gives me more confidence and self-esteem to be who I want without depending on others lesser than me in such fashion.  I've even went and taken adult gymnastics, and it's not as good as it could be and of course is money and time taking the bus.

I started learning violin, actually at age 18.  I was a piano major in college and took this as a group class for Music Education.

I started private lessons at 29, a month before I turned 30.  I've had 3 private teachers and one of them for about 2 years, for a total of 2 full years, with summer classes.

I've seen people play violin and come across beginners online.  It was very easy in college, and I did better than most people.  However, I think I may have somehow damaged the nerves in my hands and arms since, if not at all before.
