Recording is a lot of work, but it's worth persisting. I feel the hardness of it too.
Thanks for complimenting my friends. They're great people, I admire them too, and I'm sure with time we'll get to know you more. It's strange making new friends.
Do your own thing! Totally. Fun is what you enjoy, not what others say you should enjoy. Being absorbed in the task is fun.
I listened to a song on the Red Paintings site. It was OK, but not upbeat enough for me

i had no idea... would you mind providing clarification please:

what do you mean "the way i move my hands"?? like piano, or general conversational emphasis or what? i had no idea i moved my hands in a particular way... argh paranoia setting in!!!

A: I learnt Suziuki from the ages of 3 to 7 (only reached grade 3, which isn't very accomplished) and from there i am self-taught, aside from the pointers you gave me!

I'm glad you responded. During conversation, the way you move your hands and your voice attracted my attention. You are one of the few people I know who could impersonate a British aristocrat.

How embarrassing!

New question: Give me an example of something I've done that has changed your opinion of me.

1. I'll respond with something random about you
I used to feel lower class compared to you. I don't know why.
2. I'll challenge you to try something
Try something that's fun not clever, and don't be ironic while doing it. Accept it into yourself.
3. I'll pick a color that I associate with you
Navy blue
4. I'll tell you something I like about you
You are kind
5. I'll tell you my first/clearest memory of you
I remember making you grumpy when I stole the salad bowl at Will Orpwood's place. We are both competitive. I'm not even 100% certain you were there, but it's still a strong memory.
6. I'll tell you what animal you remind me of
dog
7. I'll ask you something I've always wanted to ask you
What did you learn about yourself during your honours year?

In no apparent order:

1. Lower class?! Says the PhD student!
5. Oh yeah, I remember the salad bowl incident (though I think my grumpiness was about 60% feigned).
7. I learnt that I sometimes make mountains out of molehills ("What?! Presentation due tomorrow instead of next week?!"), and I can sometimes handle the pressure of deadlines + nasty supervisors. Um?
