Exploring :3

Had a morning hike with the soundtrack set to Diorama by MØL. It's one of my favorite metal bands, and it's good music for nature hikes. It's genre is a nice mesh of post-rock, black metal and shoegaze.

Favorite track on this album is Diorama, and close second is Redacted.

I'm trying to practice playing my uke on my own a bit more. Usually I play with someone, borrowing their sense of rhythm (I don't have much rhythm on my own lol). The clip here is me practicing a song I posted about earlier. It's in the key of F, which means lots of F chords, which make my hand hurt. The verses are starting to make sense to me, but I struggle hard through the bridge and chorus.

My progress doesn't quite sound like the song yet, and I haven't even tried singing it yet. I've never really tried to sing anything before @.@

This was my favorite Megablox set when I was a kid (And my only). I'm kinda not a fan of MB because the bricks don't fit together as nicely as Lego, but I've never seen Lego incorporate play-dough molds before. This set had a clam-shell dumpster shaped mold press for making little alien fellas out to squishy stuff.

When younger, I immediately ruined the included play-dough, but that was fine because I had lots of silly putty, which worked just as well and was easier to clean up.

The Worst thing about this set is that all the brown pieces, namely the wings on the ship, possess the curse of the brown. Back in the day, the brown dye used in construction bricks, like MB and Lego, made the plastic very brittle. The poor things were turning to dust in my hands as I was trying to build it. I'm lucky to have it looking as good as it does, just don't look too close.
