So i've been practicing my guitar ever since i've bought it on Sunday :). I've been dreaming about my guitar too! Even the day before i bought it, i dreamed of which guitar i should buy (lol~still deciding on which one to buy). Then the next day i finally bought it, i practiced it at night. I dreamed about practicing my guitar later. lol!
The day before yesterday i was practicing too. i couldn't get the right sound trying to play the song 'Hey There Delilah' by Plain White T's. I downloaded some tutorials on how to play basic chords (at least i know some basic chords to ease everything) and some on how to play that song, coz it's the easiest song to learn. I wanted to play something else instead of just those basic chords. Boring, haha. I failed trying to get the right sound though. Even though i've placed the exact fingers on the exact frets and strings as the person who's teaching in the video, once i plucked the string which i pressed, it didn't sound nice, it sounded so wrong! I just couldn't get that right for an hour. It was kind of disappointing, but i didn't give up. That time was almost 12am, i just couldn't stay up too late, had to work the next day.
Then the next day in the office during lunch time (yesterday), i found out why i couldn't get the right sound after some research! That was because~~ i didn't press the strings hard enough! Arghh! I thought i did press hard coz my fingers were kinda hurt already. What if i pressed it harder that time, it could've been worse =/, but if that could get me the right sound then i'll have to do so. Fingers pain~ whatever! No pain no gain~ haha :) I tried it at home last night. It really worked! I was so happy! Hope i'll improve faster with every practice i make~ Arghh i love my guitar!♥
