As we know, Im Jayson.
I play guitar. My first guitar is an old Carlo Robelli steel string. I fell in love with guitars in general, after realising my "obsession" with Jimi Hendrix and Jimmy Page. The solo in stairway and the solo's in watchtower.....Also, my friend. Pat P. He played guitar. He is great. Around a month or so before June (this year) I started posting statues on facebook. Jimi Hendrix is the best, Jimmy Page is the best, The solo in stairway is epic, I need a guitar so I can play stairway. Statuses like that. Then I started looking at guitars online with the help of Pat. Ibanez, Gibson, Fender, Epiphone, Squier. Les Pauls, Stratocasters and Ibanez's i cant name.
One day, in july, when I was with my mother in Virginia. My sister came over with Taco Bell and graduation gifts. My mother had previously hinted towards our gifts. I saw Jared, my sisters boyfriend, walk in with the old Steel String. My eyes lit up, I felt "butterflys' in my stomach. It wasn't Taco Bell yet, I knew it was love at first sight. I've known love for 10 months at that point, and that was the same exact feeling.
I ended breaking the 1st string. They we're old, and I was tuning it. The absence of a string hadn't stopped me from learning the beginning of stairway.
Not 2 days later had Jared come back with new strings. Put them on for me. I tuned it. It was great. Fast forward, August 8th. My aunt came to pick me up to go back to Philly. No room for the guitar. I was so devastated that I forgot to say goodbye to my mother.
3 months passed with no guitar. Then my brother, kenny, brought it up for me. First thing I did was tune it. I went and relearned the basics.
Decided to have my strings replaced, went over to Cintioloi's, my dad had them do it. Pack of Strings, $5, Restringing done in shop overnight, $30.
I've basically learned nothing. Only got better at transitioning between chords.

Thanks Astra and technically, it depends on how you look at it.
Is it relevant for short stories? Maybe, maybe not. It's more like a quick auto biographical passage on my experience with guitars.
accepted, reason:It's got good punctuation & spelling, but, to me, this doesn't really seem like a relevant blog. Again, it's good, it just doesn't seem very relevant. So I'll accept, but if another blogmin decides it was the wrong decision, they can overturn it.
