What do I really like?

Thanks to this quarantine I have learned that I have many skills for things that I did not know, and these new skills that I was developing became new hobbies and the favorite things that I like to do.

Almost two years ago my ex (at that time we were still dating) gave me a ukelele and I played it for a couple of weeks and then I got frustrated and put it away forever, or so I thought. When the quarantine started the boredom was so bad that I took it and said: "How difficult can it be to learn to play this?" and I started practicing many hours a day, I watched classes on YouTube and started making my own songbook with the songs that I liked the most and that came out quite well. Over time it became a hobby that I liked, it entertained me and I relaxed, I got to have such an affinity and the ukulele took such significance for me that I decided to personify it and I painted it blue and made some drawings of it.

Another activity that I started doing and that I loved is embroidery. I made a bag with a "cartoon" of Frida Khalo



and I made a Lisa Simpson patch.



For the holidays I want to make an embroidered painting and put it in my room. When I was little, I always did badly in the annuity lines and my teachers had me convinced that I was right for that and that I would always do badly. Then when I went to high school I had a teacher who told me that there was no one who did not know how to do something artistic because art was based on expressing emotions and he gave me confidence in myself to be able to do these things. Now I crochet, I do embroidery, I paint and draw, I write poetry and I play the ukulele. That could be a summary of the things I like to do the most.
