Anywho, let me know what you think. Don't ask about the hat, i dunno why i felt like playing with a hat on Oh n i'll add, i think this is technically week 2...might be week 3 now...

Sounds good. I like how you are using your pinky finger and not forgetting that it is there. A lot of beginners including myself have a tendency to wait for a while before using it. Getting one scale down is really important > it makes learning the others an easier road to travel. If your not using a metronome yet I would start using one. It is a very good tool when learning scales. One other thing> if your palm is resting on the neck as you are doing your scales, now would be a good time to not let that happen. Its real easy to have the neck resting on your palm, seems somewhat natural but not a good thing. Your fingering needs to not be restrained by that. Where did I learn that > from this forum and its members > they were correct.
The hat ROCKs!!!

Good job. I think the hat is cute.
Opportunity is often missed because it wears suspenders and looks like hard work.

@StoneDog Thanks I will start using a metranome. I hadn't even thought about using one but i can see where it would really come in handy doing scales. as far as my hand on the neck you are correct. I will correct that. Glad I posted i didn't really know that was bad . thanks for all the happy comments you rock!
@Fiddlerman I didn't even realize it played it mirrored. lol. my computer must automatically do it but you were really close it says "where the heart meets the soul" and my fiddlerman cap will hopefully be in the mail in about 5 days when i get paid. I got a whole list for fiddlershop hehehe.

Good job! Keep using your pinky as much as you can.
I didn't use my pinky for years, and it has taken me years to used to not relying on it.
You brought the memory of the time when I was in the 5th grade. My teacher taped a thumbtack under the neck of my violin to remind me not to rest it on my palm.

Awesomesauce! Youre a girl after my own heart, taking things slow, haha. I've been on the dang g scale for months now. Anyway, for someone who said to have problems even reaching that string, even for someone who didn't, that was beautifully done. Yay violins!
Ahh thanks Laser I try to rush things every once in a while and yet my violin gladly shoves it in my face that im not ready so I've tried to do my best in doing it right the first time so i don't have to go re learn it. makes it much easier in the long run
