Since my childhood, when I was seven years old I learned how to play the piano. My father commanded me to play the piano for four hours or more on the weekends. My dream was to be a pianist because my father played the violin very well and my grandmother was a piano teacher. I thought playing the piano was very easy and it was so cool.

But now I want to abandon playing the piano. Now, it is so hard and difficult for me. It is boring and it makes me tired.
