Hawaiian Music!

I like to listen to the music. Music makes me happy. I haven't been to Hawaii, but I have some friends who learn hula dance. They invited me a show last year and I saw many people danced hula and I knew many Japanese liked to dance hula. I was not interested in Hawaii, but the Hawaiian music made me relax and the dancer always dance with nice smile, I could go to Keali'i Reichel concert in summer. I was so lucky!
In winter my friends practice very hard and waiting for the next show in spring and summer! and I'm looking forward seeing them! We are going have a big Hawaiian event in May in Osaka.

my ukulele

Finally,I bought my ukulele today.The end of last month my friend and I went to a ukulele lesson,and I had a really good time with the other students and the teacher.At the biggining of the class,he gave us a lei which were made of real flowers!!!and the flowers smelled good.While we practiced the ukulele,we smelled the lei and felt Hawaii,and I like the sounds of ukulele.I just learned some code but when I could make the sound of code,I felt good and enjoyed it like a child!It is fun to learn something new,isn't it?I think I can practice it at home.It is much easier than playing the guitar...^^;
