Alright, my mom said when I get my financial aid check in September, I can buy a new instrument to start learning. I've played Clarinet for 7 years, piano on and off my whole life, Ocarina for 6 months, and I hate playing my guitar. I'm really feeling strings right now though and I'm thinking about Cello...Is that a fun instrument? Is it easy to learn and fun to practice? I'm really really considering it, but I have NO idea about stringed instruments.

And please give me the honest truth. I'm a musician, I love making music so I need to know what's going to be good for me.
