One of the biggest aspects of my life right now is probably playing guitar. I didn’t start playing until fairly recently. Maybe the last 6 months seriously, but 2 years in total here and there. It is my main hobby and I thoroughly enjoy it. I hope to possibly even make music for fun in the future if I ever actually learn how to do that correctly. The person who got me into my favorite hobby would be Ed Sheeran. He does some amazing stuff on a guitar and it inspired me to actually start playing seriously. Ever since then Its pretty much been all I’ve done in terms of hobbies. This is why I’m playing the song “The A Team” as part of my monologue today. This was the first song I completely finished on guitar and it was an extremely hard song to learn. It took me about 2 weeks of practicing probably 2 hours a day, but for some reason I just kept pushing myself to finish it. Once I completed it, it set my whole hobby in motion because the success felt great and It just made me eager to learn more. I was really proud of finishing it so I felt like it was the most appropriate song to perform since my successful completion of it led to a big part of my life today.
