Well time to stop lurking I guess

[ambrosialprey]

So hi?

I play a lot of video games (if mobages count as too many) and read books from time to time.
I was learning piano but my keyboard got stuck in my other place so i'm pianoless and all i have are my training sheet music, but I have my trusty guitar so thats a plus.
I started interacting more with online communities mainly because I really needed the social interaction to keep myself sane through these zany times.

Please treat me well, thank you for letting me be a part of this community

Edit: Should prob mention I've played neopets a collective of 13.5 years over various accounts and it's only now on a new account i decided to buckled up and be an absolute chad grabbing trophies and avatars, raising battlepets and doing all the dailies, and clraik has helped me through the tedium of some of those

Hey!

Welcome to cK.

Wow that's really musically-inclined. I can only play the guitar but my hand-feet coordination is bad so I can't play the piano.

Wait till you get up to clraik rank or VIP, there're a lot more resources for neopets

Welcome to CK! as all the oldies say! I’m just as new as you but so happy to welcome yet another to this thrilling new community! Have you ever played Runescape? I love neopets too (:

[Flordibel]

Hi and welcome! We are happy to have you I've always wanted to learn piano but my hands are too small! Do you play any other instruments besides that and the guitar?

[ambrosialprey]

What kind of music you like to play in guitar? Also, It is also very cool to know how to play an instrument. I could never play any because I’m not very coordinated

I've always wanted to learn piano but my hands are too small! Do you play any other instruments besides that and the guitar?

I mostly just noodle on my guitar but I like to learn pieces ranging from your stereotypical Blackbird (I swear every guitarist has played Blackbird at least once) to Vocaloid songs, mainstream, etc. I'm kind of all over the place in terms of genre. At best I'd call myself an amateur since I don't practice too frequently due to lockdown and I usually rely on physical tabs/chords to make it easier to notate.

Piano was actually pretty fun, as a newbie you don't really need to worry about the pedals yet and what I've focused on mostly is trying to nail my key presses. Also you shouldn't let your small hands hold you back! Adapt and overcome! I know there are pianists out there that have small hands but damned do they handle the reach of their piano well enough it makes no difference. Piano is about coordination, speed, control and discipline.
Aside from guitar and my very very basic piano playing, I have picked up the Melodica but like my piano its in my other place. I used to play violin as a kid but fell out of it, but I do want to pick it up again when I hopefully earn enough to buy a new one; also idk if this is a universal experience but I was forced to learn how to play a recorder and I hated every bit of it.

What books do you like to read?

Quite a lot actually, presently I'm reading Fahrenheit 451, 1984, and Brave New World. But also I'm trying to get myself into reading more non-fiction such as Foucault's Discipline and Punishment, The Song Machine, and Trick Mirror. Buuuuut then I go read more fiction like light novels such as Hibike Euphonium, Oregairu, and I Favor the Villainess along with a bunch of manga and comics too many to list. But personally, my favorite books are "Kings of the Wyld" and "Bloody Rose" by Nicholas Eames, because they read like a fun DnD campaign played with a group of friends who are all for making a great story. I highly recommend them because they're a fun couple books to read and I'm excited for the 3rd book coming soon.

Hooray! Newbies to forums!!! I actually used to play runescape when I was younger and got to a pretty high level as an F2P player, but I got exhausted and just didn't feel like slaving away making lines of campfires in grand exchange just to get 99 firemaking. I did however enjoy dungeoning as a skill and activity, it was really fun hopping in with randos and doing your best to get lower and lower the dungeon and get those sweet sweet tokkies.

Presently I play Girls Frontline and Arknights as my main mobages. While on the side I just do dailies for Dragalia Lost and Granblue. Idk if it counts but I also play Shadowverse from time to time and just love winning with the deck I totally-built-myself-and-didn't-just-grab-a-deck-code-from-the-meta, it's a satisfying game to play if I can only pull myself away from doing literally everything else.

Thank you and I hope to see you around too!
