4th String

   I did my fourth sting test today and got 100 :) yay. I want to start learning some popular songs now. I've done a few and I played the Lion King song (In The Jungle) Mr. B showed us. I learned some more of it after class because it was pretty easy to figure out. I have actually been trying to grow my nails...unfortunately that doesn't work with the guitar because your nail gets stuck on the string! Ugh oh well. Maybe I'll start using a pick.

   Everyday Mr. Bautista has been showing us new chords. I always try to play them in different ways to come up with songs I know. I want to learn how to solo randomly in different parts of songs. I'm going to try to play a lot on my own so I can learn how to do that. It's really cool to play randomly and to make it sound good. It has a lot to do with knowing what notes play the sound you want, and I'm relatively good at that when I go slow. Hopefully if I practice I'll become good enough to do it quicker.
