Tried Runescape but I donāt like the controls or the camera and probably donāt have the patience to faff around with a clunky older style game.
Debating getting rid of this ukulele because while I could definitely try to tune it as a bass just for lols there are some reasons (explained but I donāt fully understand yet) that it wouldnāt work very well. And the fret is so short that by the time I get to the base thereās not a lot of room for my thumb and it collapses backwards. I want a mini practice guitar instead but letās be honest - I still wouldnāt practice.
Ordered 2 pairs of new pants I hoped would be comfy but after trying them on I might like to return them for a different size.
It would be another instrument but bass ukeleles are really fun. Not the baritones that are just a bit bigger, proper bass ukeleles with the big rubbery strings. They're easy to fret and sound nice.
And they pack a punch when plugged in since they have a built in pickup. Size doesn't matter and you could fit in the mix live with the right gear
They look cool, Iām just not wanting to spend money and wonāt be performing (learning may even be a stretch)
May I suggest a 3/4 sized guitar? And also JustinGuitar has a lot of free resources.
Iāve found some cool mini ones intended for travel, itās justā¦ while bored out of my mind Iām so constantly exhausted and lazy and probably wouldnāt be able to stick with putting the work in. So would be spending money on something only to abandon it and have the item become clutter š
boredom is very tiring in itself, it means your mind is desperate for activity, has no activity and yet is being attentive
do something that is not boring and makes you feel good about yourself
so many hugs
Thanks. Easier said than done but hopefully I find something that doesnāt feel like a chore
