Day #9

(21/10)

Ukulele lesson day #1
Rewatching and relearning the Ukulele tutorial on YouTube! This time, with my own Ukulele. Got better at chord changing (just between C, F, and G), got more comfortable with strumming as well. I don’t think I get a sense of what a rhythm is haha so I tried strumming alongside a metronome. Also, still couldn’t make sense of the song “you are my sunshine” that’s used as an example. I played the exact same chord and the (almost) exact strumming as instructed but mine came out wrong. I think my singing along threw me off as well. All in all, enough for a first day.

Interviewed by an undergrad
Helped an undergrad on his thesis by being his source. The topic was around DPIA. I talked A LOT for more than an hour.

Made XO Sauce
A bit of work, blending all the ingredients and sauteed them, but anything to help future me.
Prep Dinner
Originally wanted to make a chinese style stir fried tempe, but ended up using the XO sauce. Had dinner before my husband because he had work he wanted to finish before going home.
