Today, I moved into a lovely basement suite. Unfortunately, the 12 year old upstairs plays violin. She also plays baritone. She said she alternates each day. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it appears that my upstairs neighbour has decided to learn how to play the trombone. FML
Today, my neighbor's kid started learning the violin. FML
Today, after my annoying neighbor who used to spend hours playing the cello in the apartment below me finally moved out, I found out that I have a new musical neighbor moving in. This fellow plays the bagpipes. FML
Today, I can't any peace and quiet in any room of my flat. The neighbours on one side are arguing, the other side are having very loud sex, the ones upstairs I suspect are playing some sort of games console, and downstairs daughter has been practising her violin badly all morning. FML
Today, my neighbor's daughter started learning how to play the trombone. FML
Today, I learned that the building I just moved into contains both a drummer and an opera singer. Both are very dedicated to their craft, and practice frequently. FML
Today, I found out that there's a very loud and frisky couple living above my bedroom, and a family with a crying baby living above my living room. At this rate, I'll end up sleeping in the bathtub in my own home. FML
Today, like every evening, our place is literally shaking with banging noises from the apartment below. Are they raising ponies down there? Wrecking the furniture? Taking out some walls? No, it's just my landlord's six-year-old. Playing. FML
Today, I live in the basement and as far as I can tell, my parents spend every day rearranging the furniture upstairs and slamming every door in the house, all day long. If I complain or even mention the noise, they threaten to kick me out onto the streets. I’m not even old enough to move out. FML
Today, I met my new upstairs neighbors and their 4 kids all under the age of 6. I met them due to all the thudding coming from upstairs. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

If she's just that bad, you could be the neighbor that yells and hits the ceiling with a broom.

Well, what's wrong with that? I alternate between my cello and violin when I practice. Unless she's really bad, then FYL, OP.

I switch between baritone sax alto sax pian guitar bass and keyboards...we should be embracing it and proud she wants to be a musician not a **** or a pop star or something

We're you just too lazy to put an o at the end of piano, or was it an honest mistake?

You're assuming that she plays badly - OP didn't specify, nor did OP mention they had actually hear the kid playing She could have been playing violin since she was 5 or something.

Well, if it's on FML, it's either one of two things: a) she sucks b) she's practicing early in the morning. Also just because someone has been doing something since they were young that doesn't mean they're good at it. My aunt has been singing since she was young, and guess what? She sucks.

Could be worse. She could play the xylophone. The people on NBC only know 3 notes after years of playing.

Is she also a gunwielding government assassin with cybernetic implants? [ Gunslinger Girl referance ;) ]

Is she any good? I know violin sounds horrible but I have been playing baritone for over a year and it can sound pretty good when played right!

A violin can sound perfectly fine when played well. No need to be an ignorant ass.

Violin is a very beautiful instrument when it's played well.

All instruments are beautiful when played well and horrible when played poorly
