Music

A long time ago back in my teens. I had written some songs then I look back on them a few years lonter when I was reading them I was like wow this doesn't make sense at all so I turned them into poems. Then I really don't remember how I wanted to play the guitar. I think it was when my friend Elliot was talking about his brother selling his electric guitar and I had thought about it and I had bought it then sat in my room until years later I bought a DVD called Guitar for dummies.I needed a amp to play it. Till that day I still haven't gotten one but this year I will. I have bought a coard for it and a new beginners book for me to practice on.

I am in the process of learning my guitar and knowing now to read music notes. I really don't care if my songs don't make it to the top 10 list. Music has been very important to me. I first started listening to music then writing it and now I want play it. I did join the band in 5th and 6th grade. I played the clarinet and was horrible at it. I gave that up. So I focused on choir. I love to sing, even though I am not good at it. I am not tone death.....I know how carry a tune.

Anyways, so music had been with me my whole life. I consider it therapy. I know that by me writing my own music will enable me to go further in my music knowledge. I forgot to mention that in the past when I moved for the first time my parents got us a keyboard. I tried to learn that but I gave up cause I didn't have the patience to learn something so hard even though I loved how it sounded. Maybe one day I will learn a little bit of it. Until them I am focusing on learning the guitar. It's a easier instrument to learn but a pain to play it but I know that from practice I will learn how to play it.

More to come....I am not finished
