I bought a keyboard with a Christmas gift card a couple years ago, but when I moved I misplaced the power adapter. I’ve found one that works (but I need to go buy a better one) and I’ve been sort of practicing some songs. Since i have no real background, I’ve started with chopsticks. I’ve got the right hand down and part of the left hand down. I’m having a hard time thinking of how I’d be able to do both hands at the same time. I suppose i need to get real good with each hand, and then start trying to put both together.

I’ve been playing around with a couple other songs too. If I know the song, I find it easier to learn how to play it. I’m sticking with slow songs for now too.

It’s a lot of fun sitting there and just enjoying the music. I’ve found it really helps to clear my mind because I have to be thinking about the music.
