my new toy

While trying to kill time before Regeneration last Friday, I wandered into Target to have a browse around. The thought came to me to have a look upstairs at the electronics section because I had been thinking (for a while) about getting a piano keyboard to try pick up a new hobby. So I did. And I saw something that caught my eye - a 61-key keyboard, complete with stand, adaptor and packed with different handy features for $29.88.


Bargain of the century.

I talked to the guy about it and made sure it wasn't too good to be true - and thank God it wasn't. Apparently it used to sell at $299, but had been reduced over and over again to the point it was so cheap and it was re-shelved as a result! He also told me it had a full guarantee.

Thank God hey?

So I've been tinkering away at the little thing and I really enjoy it. Sure, it can be quite frustrating when I stuff up, but it is quite satisfying to get things right too. Once again, like all my other phases, let's see how long this will last. At least if I give up, the initial outlay would've been less than a fancy meal at a nice restaurant huh? I can live with that :D
