So today I learned that it is a major help to be able to play an instrument when it comes to getting into college. Along with good grades of course. And since I want to go to USC one of the hardest schools to get into on the West Coast I really need to step it up.
I get a 4.0+; check. I do extremely well in a sport; check. But there is one thing that I was missing. It was to perform well in an art. I suck at drawing and sculpture and stuff so that was out of the question. So I had to take an instrument...
The reason this is a problem is that I would much rather listen to music or play GH3 rather than actually play it. My friends kept pushing me to play an instrument so I thought about my possibilities. For me piano and drums were instantly out of the question. Then I wanted to play an instrument that can play songs that I am into. Since a really like rock music and I happen to own an Epiphone Gibson(I think... sorry if I am wrong) guitar.
So I decided to hire a tutor to teach me to play the guitar at the local instrument shop. I got some guy who was really into rock music just by looking at the way he was dressed. So we practiced the basics for a while and he is a pretty cool guy. One cool thing that he had me do is to pick any song that I want to master by the time that I "done" with lessons. He is giving me some time to think about it though.
It is pretty cool so far. I thinking of making my goal "Freebird" by Lynyrd Skynyrd or "Paint it Black" by Rolling Stones.
Speaking of the Rolling Stones my cousin changed my gamertag!!! Normally I would have been pissed but she picked a pretty decent gamertag "RollingStones93"
I can't really complain because I like the Rolling Stones so I am not angry. Both ways she used her own Microsoft points so I just got a free 8oo points. :P
Well I hope that you can tell me any good song that would be a good goal.
See you later!!!
