10. Learn to Play Guitar


Date Completed: June 2009
Ever since I can remember, I've been a vocalist. I love to sing and a day doesn't pass by that I'm not singing (even if it's just around the house or in the car).

After years of performing and attending concerts, I decided it was time to learn how to play the guitar.

I first picked up a guitar in the sixth grade. I took half a dozen lessons; however, 1) it hurt my fingers 2) I didn't have the time to play on a regular basis.

Ten years later, I picked the guitar back up and was determined to teach myself to play. Over the past nine months - that's what I've done.

I began playing basic chords: G, D, C, A and have incorporated many more: Em, F, Am, Bm.

It was difficult at first but I've made sure to consistently play - there's nothing better than sitting around singing and playing the guitar.
