Good morning, everyone, and happy autumn!
Admittedly, it's pretty ballsy for me to post a dairy that has nothing to do with anything beyond the parameters of my own self-interest. You see, i'm about to ask you for your vote (but not that kind of vote).
I recently entered an on-line ukulele contest, the premise of which is to submit a video about what it's like to wait a year or more for a custom-made ukulele to be built and delivered. For my entry, i wrote a little song about it ...
Here's a link to the YouTube video ...
In the event of a tie in the judging, the number of "views" and "likes" the video receives will act as a tie breaker. Since i don't use Facebook, Twitter, or the like, i'm at a bit of a disadvantage on that front. I was hoping you all could watch my video, and if you happen to have a Youtube account, maybe you could give it your thumbs up?
While winning is highly unlikely for me, making and submitting a video at all was 180 degrees away from my comfort zone. I consider that to be a victory unto itself. If the stars align perfectly and i do happen to come out on top, the prize is a beautiful custom-made ukulele - one that takes a full year to be built and delivered. :) Hope springs eternal ...
To those of you who've made it through the entire diary, thank you, thank you, thank you. And here's a little ukulele music (from people who can really play) that i hope will brighten your day:
Thank you again, everyone, and have a gorgeous weekend!
3:12 PM PT: So, i stepped away for a bit, and this somehow ended up on the Recommended list? This community never ceases to amaze. Thank you so much, everyone ...
