Blog Post #11: finishing touches

This week, I decided on what song I will be presenting for my Ted Talks. I have decided on playing the very first song I learned because it was the song I knew how to play the best. Also, my mom has decided to help me with my presentation by singin along when I present. This week, I also bought a Kapo on Amazon. I expect it to arrive this Friday, and by using this I can play a wider variety of songs. One of my strings on my guitar broke, but it was expected to happen because my guitar is relatively old. Hopefully my dad and I will go to the music store soon to buy some new strings.

Blog Post #10: Another song complete

This week, I started and finished another song. The song was told to be kind of difficult, so I just adjusted some of the chords the song required to make it easier for myself. All I need to learn is pacing myself and being consistent. I also expanded my list if songs I want to learn, so over the summer I can do something with my free time. After looking at multiple songs and trying them out, I learned that I have gotten better in transitioning between chords. It use to take me about a week to become at least mediocre at transitioning, but now it only takes me about a day. I have set a new goal for myself also. I want to learn an perform 4 different songs before the school year ends.
