I see a... GUITAR!

Looks like I'll be blogging a lot less in the next two weeks because it's "i want to kill myself marking time" in school. :( For now, here's a short little post about DN's first love - GUITARS!

DN has this mad obsession with guitars. It's very strange because PF and I are as musically inclined as bars of soap. I sing out of tune and PF sings even more out of tune. There's a chance we might do alright when playing a triangle, but don't bet on us. We have no musical instruments at home so it was with great surprise that DN developed this insane love for guitars.

It started a few months back when he was in the playnest programme at Julia Gabriel. After every class, he would head for the guitar and pluck the strings. Then, he discovered pictures of guitars in his 1000-word book (Thanks Ling!) and would ask us to show him those pages EVERY NIGHT. Soon, he started saying "guitar". It was at that point that we thought he might actually like to have his OWN guitar. There was once we were at Central and there was a little band (2 guitarists, 1 cellist) entertaining the public. DN stopped crying (he was fussing about being put in the stroller) and watched them perform for 30 minutes straight. At odd times in the day, he will pick up the strangest objects (racket, ladle, stick) and start strumming them like guitars. Funny bunny!

How else do we know he loves guitars? Just watch this video. ;)
