22. I want my guitar back :(

I am playing classical guitar since 2005. But unfortunately next year i paused my courses with the instructor because of our university entrance exam. This year i brought my guitar with me to Sabancı. But i couldn't manage my time properly for studying guitar. And than my guitar broke down. And than my tuner broke down. I am really upset because i was used to playing guitar when i was unhappy, when i was exhausted, when i was enthusiastic, when i was hopefull.... In this picture it is my second year on classical guitar. I am on the concert of our music course. First i was having stage-phobia, but then i got used to be in front of lots of people. I realized that, if you play bad on the stage , nobody is remembering it later, but if you play good, everybody remember it :) So what must i do? It is not right time for taking care of my guitar again. Finals are almost starting... The best result that i found is i started to listen classical guitar songs which i can deciphere by myself, when i went back to Antalya for summer holiday, i must fix my guitar and start to study this songs. Wish me luck! I want my best-nothuman-friend back :)
Here is my favorite 5 classical guitar song:
1)Recuerdos de la Alhambra by Francisco Tarrega (i can't play it)
2)Milonga by Jorge Cardoso
3)El Testament D'Amelia / arranged by Miguel Llobet Taylor
4)Lagrima by Fransisco Tarrega
5)Asturias by Isaac Albeniz (i can't play it)

  1. You are really just amazingly talented, aren't you!! I am in awe...I love the classical guitar. I actually have one too - it's in my grandmother's basement, I never learned how to play it :((

    I'm going to check out these songs, thanks.

    And I want a video of you playing this summer, even if it's just in your bedroom! :)

    p.s. This is a lovely picture of you.

  2. Oh thank you Sonja, it is not late for starting to learn it, i think guitar is easier than other classical instruments after you get used to holding it and organizing your fingers :)

    I would record a video of course in my bedroom. Ooops, i remembered my family moved on another house and there isn't bedroom for me in this house anymore :(, (they started to forgot me :D) Ok i would record it in the kitchen for you ;)

    These songs are enjoyable, i would highly recommend you :)
