La La time...
What is la la time u ask?...
Well its that time in everyones life when we all test the musical geniuses in us...(rather the existence of it!!)
Ahem!..so I finally started with my first guitar class last week.....and I made sure I kept reinforcing to Hubby dear atleast a few weeks before the class that the world would now see a new "prodigy".....and yes I genuinely believed I was one!!
And yes I entered my first class with a list in my mind of all the songs I wld learn to play in less than a month....prodigy that I was!!
I have been practising and trying to play for 4 -5 days now....And what have I been playing?
Well...no not hotel california....but "do re me fa..." for almost 4 days now...and er....am "almost" getting there!!...
My fingers are hurting...the shoulder is paining and hands are numb....and "Do re me" doesnt sound anything like it yet....:-(
But well er....who says prodigies were born in 1 day....am getting there....."almost":-))

I have been playing the clarinet for about seven years now, and did dabble with the violin a bit.
