The Birchow.

You expected more from your friends and your lady, huh?

I did.

And I don't normally look to the people around me for support.

I'm pretty good at being a self-motivator.

But I don't know if you've ever done something, maybe a hobby or something like that.

And then it took so much time that by the time you got to the end of it, you expect it like

this grand celebration.

And it just wasn't exactly what you had in mind.

And I feel like that's what I experienced.

Okay.

They let you down a little bit with their reaction.

A little bit.

And it might be a me thing, but I just thought it was funny that I reacted to it the way that I did

so I take up a new hobby start learning the piano right I don't know where this came from exactly

but for my pretty much my as long as I can remember I've always wanted to be able to play an

instrument and it always came down to guitar or piano for me and I feel like there's been so many times when I've gone to places and they'll have a piano and I've just always felt like damn I really wish I could break Beethoven out right now and just surprise everybody in the room that's always been like a bucket list item of mine so instead of just thinking like

one day it would be great i'm like no like today i'm going to start learning the piano and so i do every

day i take an hour i try to find an hour of my time seriously an hour of my time like it started off

with 20 minutes then it got to 30 and then before i knew it i was like obsessed i was want to learn. So as I was getting a little better, gradually, I would want to do it

more and more and more. So at first, I think to myself, like, okay, once I get good enough to like,

I got good enough to make the hooks of songs, right? But then my lady is like, no, you got to go deeper than that. Like you got to learn an entire song before I'm really impressed.
