From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Ukuleleman (1)

Well, it’s been quite a time recently. I lost most of last week due to travel, and haven’t been keeping up on blog updates because that really drained my energy. It also drained my motivation a bit, to be back on Oahu and be reminded of all the things I used to do when I was healthy. I manage to do ok in my little room and routines, but its actually very difficult to do anything resembling normal people activities. Being forced to go outside and see the world working, and be reminded of the times when I was a part of it was not the most pleasant thing for me. Its much easier for me to not think about it when it’s not in my face. Out of sight, out of mind, right?

Then, Hurricane Nolo came. Luckily damage wasn’t too great, but my area lost electricity and internet again. For the entire weekend. So, I didn’t have my usual stream of games and anime to keep me distracted from thinking thoughts about myself and my situation. Even now I don’t want to write about it too much because it’ll just bring me down. But I do want to continue making these post stream reviews to keep an honest record of this journey. It’s way to easy for me to decide its not worth it and do nothing instead, so I need to try make it an automatic habit. Just like when it comes to practicing, a little bit is better than nothing at all. So here we are.
