Learning the Ukulele: Try Something new Tuesday (Self Challenge)

in #challenge6 years ago (edited)


So today is my first week of doing my scheduled Tuesday Try Something New topic.

This is my current Planned schedule:

  • Weightloss Wednesday
  • Therapy Thursday
  • Friday Favorites (or once a month Friday Freebies)
  • Storytime Saturday: Weekend Freewrite
  • Sunday Funnies: Funny Posts
  • Mommy Monday (which will be about "Bean's Monkey Business" puppet show for the time being)
  • Try Something New Tuesday

I was feeling a bit challenged on the try something "NEW" part, because I already tend to just try anything that occurs to me. However, I've been wanting to learn the ukulele, but I never make time for it. @abyni taught me a few chords a few weeks ago, but then the ukulele just sat there, staring at me like a lonely little puppy.

SO! Challenge Accepted I picked up the ukulele, yelled through the house to ask Abyni for an easy song to learn 'by that one guy with easy chords' and she game me this song, "Stay with Me" by Sam Smith.

ANYWAY, without further ado, here is my first attempt at 'Try Something New Tuesday"

That's great. I used to know how to play a bit when I was younger.

Maybe you might want to join us in the Five Star Entertainment community Discord server :)

Thank you! :) I will check it out, although fair warning, I truly DO suck at all things discord and chat :)

Everything is possible to self-learn with the help of Google :D
Glad you took the first step trying ~~

OMG YOU sing GREAT! I HATE YOU!

and you don't SUX so this doesn't count as trying something new LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

and yes, YOU need to do a bad karaoke tape by Wednesday for making me want to be as talented as you. go to @simgirlandsnook and post a song :D

Bravo!!!!!!!!!!! for doing something on tape you THINK you are bad at LOLLL

Love and many hugs

I LOVE you. LOVE LOVE LOVE you. I don't think I'm BAD, necessarily, I am just trying to learn, so that counts as something new!!! :) I love karaoke, I'll come join you tomorrow with a video!

Oh and I understood every word you said.....who doesn't? you were very clear in all you said. so just punch someone if they say you were not :D and tell them Snook said so :D

@snook what constitutes "bad" karaoke. Like a horrible song choice?

Bad Karaoke is something YOU have fun doing in a non professional way :D

Well I have some ideas and @abyni just informed me that this Friday night is our karaoke night, so I hope to get some video for you there as well. I'm hoping that Abyni and I can make a video together this weekend for your contest!
