When I was in the fifth grade (the only year I went to public school), my parents made me play violin in the school orchestra. I didn't get lessons, just a book showing how to play the notes and a school rental violin. I wanted to play guitar, but my parents wanted me to play violin. I hated it. Hence, the caption because I certainly had "the look" many times during that year.
To make things worse, my teacher in the classroom, Mr. McHenry, offered to teach guitar after school for free to anyone in the class who was interested. At the end of the school year, the kid who had improved the most, would get a free guitar! My parents wanted nothing to do with that. Unbelievable!
