remember to let her into your heart

you know when you match your shoes, or accessories, to your outfit?
well, today i matched my outfit to my guitar.

this is eddie, say hello everyone.
yes, i named my guitar. 'cause that's just how i roll.
he's named after eddie cochran (if you wanted to know), who was one of the greatest guitar heroes of all time. basically, he invented some kind of technical tuning thing to do with the guitar & the bass, but i don't really know what that is so i just like him for his songs (:
this is my favourite one, check it out if you have a few spare minutes.
he really was very talented, personally i find it tragic that he died in a car crash aged only 21, just as he was starting to make a name for himself in the music world.
it doesn't really show in the photos, but the guitar's a lovely royal blue colour - which very clearly matches my cardigan.
that's a G chord, would you believe.
i'm so impressed that i finally managed to work some chords out, this time last year i could barely play notes on a single string!
i also learned to play hey jude, yesterday and yellow submarine today, hence the tshirt.
oh, and clearly i had to wear my john lennon spectacles to match too.
PEACE OUUUUT.

fly on little wing

can't believe i haven't posted since tuesday, yet it feels like aaaaages!
i've had so much stuff going on at the mo recently that i haven't even been able to think about blogging, let alone actually do it!
i figured i'd give you a bit of a round up of things that have been going on, sound good?
here goes.
i've had lots of art stuff to do recently & so far i have been up & down the spectrum from deliriously happy with my work to borderline wanting to rip my hair out i'm so angry.
anyway, today i found some pieces of a shattered mirror (bad luck, i know) & decided to take some pictures of myself in it.
this is the best one i think, one of my friends took this.
i've just realised, the weird things in my hair are off the native american headdress thing my other friend whacked on my head!
schoolwork's been pretty manic, so thankfully i had 3 frees today where i played cards :)
also, i had my grade 2 guitar exam on monday...

...which i just found out today i got a merit in!
:D
i put this down to the jimi hendrix tshirt i was wearing for the exam, obviously his spirit helped me through it ;)
