First Guitar Lesson

4/28/11

               I had my first guitar lesson with Victor this week! At first I was really overwhelmed when he was showing me all the chords and where to place my fingers. I felt like I would never get used to it because the placement of my fingers on certain chords felt really weird and awkward. After playing for a couple of hours the first day, I was able to put my fingers in the right spot and it felt natural. I practiced the chords and tried to strum a little bit on my own, but I need Victor to help me with that because it sounded off. I picked a song "Perfect" by Pink, and I learned how to play the first thirty seconds of the song. I'm really excited to have more lessons and become fluent in the guitar so I could sing along with it without having to concentrate so hard. Another thing I really had trouble with at first was switching from chord to chord because I had to think where to place my fingers next, but after practice it becomes easier everytime.
