You should be a vet

Yay!

I'm actually considering working as a vet in the furture, but for now I don't know if I should place my studies in music or medicine. I'd do both, if possible.

You totally can I play the ukulele and I'm studying to become a scientist

I play piano and cello, as well as recorder (if that even counts xD). My sister also has a ukulele but she never plays it. She even has a violin, too, but again never practices. And shen she DOES, it's just a quick, go-through-the-song-once and she puts it away. How disgraceful!

I actually don't pick up my ukulele much either anymore mainly because all the ukulele classes around here suck and im bad at self teaching myself stuff

Well at least you have a reason not too. Where I live, orchestral music FLOURISHES and we have the best classical teachers. In fact, when my sister's violin string broke, her teacher replaced it with a GOLDEN one! Yet she rarely practices, and when it's time to drive to the lesson she whines like a monster.

Would I kill to play properly on my ukulele again

I think there are tutorials on YouTube. Just hope they aren't crappy.

It's kind of you just watching someone play and it's hard to see where there fingers are on the fretboard

Yeah...
Speaking of poopy tutorials, I used to play in my school orchestra but I left because the teacher was AWFUL. She's so bad, that once she tuned my cello and the next day my "G" string was higher than my D string. It was extremely out of tune.

I've heard an out of tune cello before And it nasty

I feel you. I could tune it myself but nobody taught me how to use the main pegs yet. I can only use the fine tuners, which only make a small sound difference.

Same with me nobody taught me how to tune my ukulele xD

I can tell when a note is not correct but I can't physically change it because I worry that I'll bust a string. :/

That happened to my last ukulele lmao

Is it broken forever? I'm pretty sure you can replace the string or peg.

Uh yeah I threw it away

._.
Why do I find that so sad
