Challenge.

It's really not as easy as it looks.

Believe me on that, playing the guitar is really not an easy thing to do.

I'm pretty much done with plucking each individual string without using my left hand to do anything. Sounds simple eh?

Well chords are a totally different thing.

Trying to press strings needed to do an open chord is really, really hard. Again, my fingers always touches strings that aren't supposed to be touched, making them sound weird, or totally muted. It could be because my fingers are short, but that's not a valid excuse, really. I just need more practice.

What else?

I've added You're Not Sorry by Taylor Swift into my playlist. Another great song.

Yourguitarsage has videos for both beginners, and individual tutorials for songs. He encourages people not to give up while learning. =)

Wonder when will I be able to reach my goal : to be able to entertain others with my guitar. That would be the biggest accomplishment for me.
