Now that I’ve had the guitar a couple of days, I’m starting to see how this fits into the larger picture of changing my life and my art. I played the violin when I was a kid, and sucked badly at it, partially because I didn’t like the whole  neighborhood being able to hear me when I practiced. So I didn’t practice. When I was 14 or so, I was given an acousitc guitar by a friend, and went to guitar club after school for a few weeks, but quickly got frustrated for sucking again.

I still suck, badly. But it’s only been two days, and I’m determined not to let my self-consciousness  stop me from trying. Plus, the kit I bought came with headphones that plug into the amp, so I can practice without anybody hearing me if I want :)
