capo is what i'm looking for

Currently... : I was wondering, if things don't end up like this, then what would happen to me right now?
current location: recycle bin...trying to get rid of all the junk in my life
current music: "
butter on a summer day when i hear that name, a dream that never came true"

I was obsessed with death cab for cutie's I will follow you into the dark song from their 2005 Plans album. And so I decided to try and learn how to play it with my (i wish it was mine but... no, it's my brother's) trusty guitar. The result was not very satisfying because I don't have a capo! damn! But I manage to, thankfully, learn to play the whole song, though I'm no expert guitarist. But I'm learning everyday. Finger picking was not my forte I must say...heee... so I just settled with strumming them, thus destroying the song completely, I'm sorry dcfc! I didn't mean to! if only I could finger picking a guitar.

As you all can see, I desperately need a capo (and a teacher to teach me how to finger picking). At this very moment, my capo is a pencil and few rubber bands (these darn things always breaks, driving me insane!) and voila! a poor-man's capo! (T_T)


my poor poor-man's capo

ok, well y'all laugh out loud at my capo now. But I tell you what, I learned how to play the paramore's version of use somebody with this very unattractive thing! Now if only I could get my hands on a real one... Perhaps you could say it's my biggest (belated) birthday wish? hmmm... well actually, not really! hehe

But one thing for sure is that I want to learn how to play the guitar properly, and practice till my fingers bleed or something.

seriously...

no lah! XD


- wish me luck! -
and wish on that capo too!

I'm sure your fingers will toughen up in time, don't worry. No gain comes from no practice
