New Hobby Unlocked

<div class="pull-left">https://steemitimages.com/DQmYNo7JNzGgJmpyjbdv38miXakkrye8D8Wk6RVWtuLkgja/20180317_021926.jpg</div>  <div class="text-justify">Hello everyone! Meet my new love, <i> Aloha </i>. I just bought her yesterday at the mall for a price of Php1,790.00 (or less than 40USD). Please do not judge me for being a compulsive buyer. I really had been planning to buy since the start of 2017. I did not just have the luxury of time to check on music shops at the mall. <br> <br>
Here is what really happened.  After buying some items at the grocery of Robinsons, we were able to pass by a music store that sells various types of musical instruments. My eyes sparkled when I saw this lovely Ukulele. <br> <br> </div>
<div class="pull-right"> https://steemitimages.com/DQmYS4TvF2f7S5jHriZzHoZcRxdLrT28WNpL4ymqXrv2pxw/20180316_192103.jpg
</div> <div class="text-justify"> My cousin, Ate Roxanne even fell in love with Aloha so she asked me to take a photo of it after we had our snacks -- or should I say dinner. <br> <br> Of course, I would never say no to her. Who would not fall in love to my sweet  baby? Her pink color makes it very adorable especially to kids as I have thought to use it because I am planning to compose a song for them. <br> <br> </div>

<div class="text-justify">I was not staying much over steemit because I had been busy learning new chords. Like for the very first time in my life, I was able to strum a guitar and remember a chord because often times, I prefer being focused on visual arts. I just find myself musically dumb before during my basic education years. Oh well. <br> <br>
I also learned that by playing ukelele, although the strings are nylon, it is somewhat painful for my fingers so I improvised my own pick using an old casing for my Samsung J7.<br><br>
Aloha was not in tune so I had a hard time fixing her. I do not really have an idea which string I should move and it has a specific name. That is one of the fascinating things I learned today. I am just glad @ninjace helped me out. I know it sounds painful for his ears to listen to the same tune multiple times. <br> <br> I admit, my strumming does not contain any hint of harmony. I really need to work a lot on it. I downloaded applications that would really be very helpful for me on my journey with Aloha. I will also watch tutorial videos over facebook. Wish me luck on this.
</div>

Do not worry, the paint would not last long because the base paint is incompatible with acrylic. I suppose the manufacturer used enamel paint and then coated it with something shiny like a varnish. One of these days, I might buy other colors to put life to my lovely Aloha.<br> <br>
I cannot wait for that day when I could play songs properly in front of an audience, probably during Sunday Service. <br> <br><i> Do not worry my dear Aloha, I will take good care of you. I wish to share wonderful moments with you. </i> </div>

Oh thank you. I was really trying my best. I suppose practicing an instrument hurts your shoulders and fingers the most.

I have one too! I bought it for 500php. I went to the manufacturer since i know it would be expensive when buying in malls..and im from cebu so its cheaper..the original color was just varnish and i spray painted it with my fave color and bought colored nylon strings..
