I'd like to learn to fluently speak a language other than American English.
Spanish, Russian, Mandarin Chinese, American Sign Language, or maybe something else.
I want to learn how to play the piano, too. I took lessons as a little girl, but never practiced. That is one of the regrets of my life.I'd like to learn to play the piano ... but I'm not sure I have the patience for it (or the money, since I'd need someone to push me to do it, which would probably mean paying them for it)
and it would be nice if I could get a full time, long- term job where I felt needed.
I want to learn how to play the piano, too. I took lessons as a little girl, but never practiced. That is one of the regrets of my life.I actually have a beautiful, old piano that goes unplayed. So I need to get to it. One of my friends plays well, and I thought about hiring her since her children are older and not so much underfoot as when they were small. I can play simple songs with one hand, and I know the keys. I can read music, but that's about it.
Reading the music and getting the keys right are not that hard. I think if you buy a beginner's book, you could probably teach yourself the rudiments of reading music. I don't know if you have a keyboard, but there may be some kind of app to help teach piano. There are apps for everything, it seems. I never got around to learning how to play with both hands. It was like a coordination problem or something. So, I gave up playing, much to my regret as an adult. I wish I could go back in time to my little girl self and say "Don't give up playing the piano!"Then you are miles ahead of me![]()
That might be a bit of a sticky wicket.I do have keyboard ... I also rent an apartment, the landlord living upstairs, and there is no soundproofing whatsoever![]()
