Strum

So my mom really surprised me this xmas by getting me an acoustic guitar.

I had been itching to learn the guitar for a while now, and when I unwrapped the mess of paper and blankets to reveal the beauty within I was quite shocked. It was completely unexpected, which is rare for me lately.

Music seemed to be the theme for my family this xmas. My sister got her sax, I got my guitar, and we got two of my nieces little beginner guitars.

With my niece and I both having a guitar now, I've agreed to teach her what I learn, and help her as much as I can. I'm looking forward to this as I know I'm having a blast learning the ins and outs of it. I hope my niece does too.

I'm quite excited about this really. This is the only hobby that I could actually profit from other than relieving boredom. I've never known what I wanted to do with my life career-wise. I still don't know, but maybe this guitar will spark something. I'm not saying I want to be in a band or anything, but it's fun to wonder what I'll be able to do. If anything, I'll be able to not only listen, but play music, and that alone is worth it.
