Playing Stuff On Guitar

I am so frustrated. Because (in no particular order):
  • I can play the first line, and only the first line of Barbie Girl on guitar
  • I cannot figure out that awesome riff from that White Stripes song
  • I can't figure out "Baobabs" by Regina Spektor on piano
  • Life is general


I know, right? AND Blogger is refusing to work on our OLD computer, so I have to use Dad's laptop. It's enough to make anyone an Atheist (kidding, sort of).

LEARNING TO PLAY GUITAR

It's true! And I love it. Once I get good, I'm allowed to get a guitar of my own, which I will probably pick from the five (!!!) that we already have. I'm not sure whether to get acoustic or electric (I've tried both). My argument: sounds good all the time VS. sounds great only when plugged in. I think I'll probably end up going acoustic.
I can already (brag brag brag) play "Smoke On The Water" and "Unlikely Places" (Mom's song). That is correct, both of my parents have been playing for over fifteen years. I feel kind of dumb when I make a major breakthrough and go show them, and they're just like, "Yeah, and?" Well, they don't SAY that, but I can tell they're THINKING it.
Ah, whatever. Thanks for listening.
