TODAY WAS A GREAT DAYYYYY

i learned how to play enrique aglaises (or however u spell his name)'s song HERO. hahahhahah....its like a serenading song for those who don't know. using Gmaj chord with different bases.

basically all you do is keep the ends of the Gmaj chord, strum G alternating with the last 3 string. E with the last three. C with the last three. and D with the last three. I rmb on valentine's day I saw my friend play this and almost fell in love. NOW I CAN PLAY IT!!!! bwahahahha....

will someone fall in love with me? @.@ LOLLLL

Guitar #5

After basic learning of the chords i decide....i want to learn a SONG. a real song that is easy, can impress ppl, and is so good.

so he teaches me this bass chord normally used for a jazz piece.
if you can try it :) DO!
i took pictures of the strings needed to be plucked. its just a one string melody kind of thing. no 2 strings at one time so it should be easy.
AND THIS. IS MY WAY OF REMEMBERING IT :D :D :D :D enjoy



lol. does it work?

Guitar #4

so i practiced all week my one finger stopper chord and.....it seems to be working out :) now i just need to be fluid in my finger motions. After a while I suddenly realise.....I don't know what chord this is. I ask. :P I don't know is the reply. it just sounds so good. ah well....playing by ear has always been a dream of mine. why not start with the guitar?

Then i realised. you know....there would be seriously something wrong if i didn't know the NAME of the chords. so i demanded to know C, G, F, D, A and E chords. we worked on that the whole day. my fingers got seriously messed up that they're starting to harden now and but i do know how to play them! :D clap for me!!!!

now....just progression again. i can do the chords slowly. but not progressively. hehe
OOPS then what is the point of playing the guitar? XD

i decided after chords i would like to go for.....plucking

Guitar number i don't know what

I HAVE DECIDED TO LEARN CHORDS.

like really really really hard chords.
so I asked ronald to throw me a bunch of chords that I could try out, take them home, practice like mad, come back, be a pro at it. and tadaa.....i learnt he guitar.

sadly. I realise my chord progressions aren't that great.

Ronald has the great jazz piece that he figured out himself that i really really want to learn but HE HAS GOT SUCH A STRONG PINKY FINGER. he asks me: can i do it? I follow thru with an optimistic energy. the thing is.....its quite hard. what i have to do is.... put my whole finger on the entire bracket. doesn't sound so complicated right? HAHA. it is. my short puny finger won't push all the strings right.

maybe i need new strings.......

TO TRY AGAIN NEXT TIME

thank you boom :)

THE LEAF


yes. and I work on this one little thing for the WHOLE HOUR. frustrating but when I look back at it i smile for some odd reason. An exasperated gratifying moment i guess. well first, i did the leaf HORRIBLY. then the thread for entangled. THEN my thread was too short. can u guess why i took an hour to finish this?
