Okay, so she totally won 1st place and she continued submitting songs on YouTube. Long story short, she basically became YouTube famous, selling CDs and even OPENED FOR BEN FOLDS ( I know, how awesome is that?).
And so to mark the Beauty of the Ukulele (4 reasons follow):
1.
Ukulele = Beauty.
The sound invokes in me a feeling so mellow and happy. There is no sound like it.
You know that scene in Lilo and Stitch, when Stitch is completely wild and out of control, and then Lilo strums the Uke once, and he instantly melts onto the ground? It's a funny scene. And it's just like that for me.
2.
People who put themselves out there and create great music = Beauty
Here is a beautiful case in point
(These girls are this year's 1st place winners)
Go ahead and watch it - you'll be so glad you did!

Being Inspired to Make a New Resolution = Beauty:
I RESOLVE to learn one song, on my Ukulele, each month this year. YAY! That will be 12 new songs to add to the 2 I know now ;).
*January's song: Jason Mraz's I'm Yours (That's for you Uncle Ed. I expect you to sing it once I learn it.)
Happy Day!
