my guitar history



New guitar at $288, thanks to Lil & Andrew's recommendation.

I bought my first guitar when I was in the university. My cousin Bob was in S'pore for a month and I wanted to learn from him. The interest died after he went back to HK. I sold the guitar away to a friend shortly after.

My second guitar was bought together with hubs. One of my ex-colleagues asked if we were interested to learn guitar together at the CC, and I thought why not? And so I bought the second one. After I completed one course (8 lessons), I stopped. BIL subsequently borrowed it cos he wanted to self-learn. Think he also gave up after a while. The guitar is now sitting in one corner of the storeroom. I didn't pick it up again cos I thought it's too big for a girl, maybe.

And now, I bought my third guitar - it's of a smaller size compared to the standard one. I have no idea how long my interest will last this time round. As usual, my bimbotic self told me to buy it cos it's got a really nice finish and the bag (that comes with it) is cream-coloured and looks prettier compared to the usual black plastic-ky looking ones.

I suppose I should set a goal for myself. To play simple songs at cell group? To play simple songs at home and get Mr. Jang to sing along? ^o^ Already, he feels that I have too many so-called "hobbies" or interest (which is not untrue). Oh well, pray pray pray that I have the time, passion, and patience to practice. Else, it might just end up as an "art piece" in my new living room, like so many things before it. Aha.
