My New Past-Time
What did i do last week? Well, i spent a fair bit of time wandering in and out of music shops with MusicMan (who, by the way, really needs a new blog-name because that one sucks. I've just got to think of a better one!). After muuuuch consideration, backing and forthing, discussing which was best, etc, i got a guitar!!!
After waiting practically forever until this school year ended, i was able to buy my guitar (yes, i had to loan money from the rentals... deeeeeeply in debt). It's so cool! Nice, shiny, good sound, cool case... yea, i'm easily pleased. I spent the evening looking at my little beginners book, trying to figure out chords all on my lonesome - an exercise that i won't bore you with explanations of it's failiured :P
Today, however, i had my first 'proper' guitar lesson - and now i can sort of play chords and even sort of play some songs! How cool am i? I'm sooo hooked. We plugges mine into his amp and it was even cooler that way! ...Although, it seems i hold the strings down veeery strangely. And you know how i stick out my tongue when i concentrate? Apparently, that's really nerdy and strange. Ok, yes, it is strange. But that's how i concentrate! So meh. At least i don't 'hump my guitar' like certain people do :P So i think we're even.
Now, in keeping with tradition, i needed to come up with a name for my guitar. You know how there's 'George the i-pod', 'Cameron the Camera', 'Peter the Pendrive', 'Beetle the Toyota', etc? It's not just me - George has 'Poddy the i-pod' and 'Moses the VW'! Well, now we have 'Henry the Guitar'. Random, i know, but there's really no other way to go about it than just to use the first name you think of. So when you hear me talk about Henry, it's the guitar, ok?
By the way, i realise i've said that my guitar is 'sooooo coooool' about a million times, but i'm just so fresh-out of synonyms. So i think 'so cool' sums it up :)
Ok, i'm off to bed - looking forward to getting up in the morning and playing some more! Lol, i think i need to get our more...
