I spent the whole day playing the guitar in different ways if you know what i mean. I practised on my acoustic guitar for an hour and played many cool and catchy songs. By the way, I have learnt guitar for about a year already, hence I am now learning many new songs to improve my skills and the speed of my fingers. Among all the songs I played today, my favourite song is I'm Yours by Jason Mraz and Thunder by Boys Like Girls. Although the tunes are simple, the way the singers sing the songs are filled with emotion and the arrangement of the background music is very effective. However, I have the work on strumming bar chords and training on my finger strength so that I can hold the notes down. After playing on my guitar, I switched to the "fake one".
What do i mean? I mean that I played the game"Guitar Hero World Tour" on my Nintendo Wii. It is a simulation and it seems like you are playing the notes in the song. This game is in my opinion, the best game ever as you can play guitar, drums, bass and sing-creating a full band. The guitar has only five buttons but the notes are still hard to hit at expert difficulty when its extremely fast. Since I was the only one at home after school, I played the guitar and "performed many rock songs which made me have a whale of a time. I really felt like a real rock star, performing on stage, rocking on the guitar and playing tricky solos. As this game, which is very expensive, is bought by my father, I will work hard on my studies and not disappoint him as he always spends his hard-earned money on rewarding me.
