It's so, so human to be afraid of failure and to really struggle when you've reached a point in your life where you've mastered a bunch of things but have to start as a beginner all over again. I really struggled with that in undergrad with my secondary instrument choice - I thought the organ would be a reasonably convenient parallel but it turned out to be frustratingly difficult because it was so similar and yet completely different and I had to relearn how to learn all over again.
I am a science loving, pie baking, Tetris crushing, curious human that enjoys nature and research. Currently, I am learning Java, SQL, and web API design using Spring Boot.
