Making Sushi for the 1st Time

I didn't have a lot of proper ingredients but I worked with what I had, so please don't go too harsh.

I made Salmon Nigiri on top of some nori paper yesterday for lunch for my fiance and I. I coated the salmon and the paper with a mix of unagi sauce and soy sauce I made. I used microwave jasmine rice as it was what we had available so it didnt stick together all that well, (or at all honestly) but it tasted pretty good! I kind of gave up trying to do neat cuts when I realized my knife (even after sharpening) still wasn't sharp enough to do clean cuts anyway. Anywho, for a first try with subpar ingredients it tasted pretty good and thats what matters to me at least!

Edit: Hi! First of all no, this is NOT ragebait. If you get mad or genuinely upset over a strangers food, it sounds like you need therapy. Secondly, I never intended to post this to begin with. I only did so on a whim. These pictures were originally taken to show my boyfriend and I had no reason to make them "picture perfect" as some of you all are wanting. Thirdly, I am a disabled young woman who has dexterity and other issues that cause my hands to not always work quite right.

Thank you to those who are kind and encouraging and I treasure all the tips.

To those of you who aren't so nice... please touch some grass.
