Ukulele - Uke on Gor's Hand

The Ukulele have been around my sight for some time before i really took it up,
first i thought the ukulele is only a toy for kids to play around but later i knew my stupidity of judging this very special & unique musical instrument.
I found out that the 4 strings are of the same tuning as the standard guitar would have only it's in higher key, it represent the 4 lower string tuning of the guitar in standard.
From the first string to the fourth is spells G C E A. The unique thing about the uke is that the fourth string or the nearest it is to you is the same gauge as the first, unlikely to be on the guitar as the gauges increase along the position. maybe that's what differ the Ukulele to the Guitar. I have been playing the guitar for more than 16 years before i took up the Uke.
Again i felt like i was learning the guitar all over but only with a different mindset.
A more mature one.
After i bought one Ukulele from my supplier of music instruments, i felt that poison again. The poison of G.A.S, my mind have been show up all this ukuleles and i spend hours browsing image and posting for ukuleles on sale. It's all worth it, i now have a new desire , a new flame to burn my musical passion.
I will have all the FUN playing and singing songs on this simple instrument. Just like spongebob. :)
