Hi everyone, it's another week of hive learners,and I welcome everyone to another edition of this week.
Kudos to everyone living by themselves out there,it's not easy with the little experience I had while struggling to have my first guitar,but man must not give up.
From start I wasn't the one that feed myself, I depend on my parents, it all continued till I gained admission, though I was well fed but there isn't enough to save.
Around 2019/2020, I started music school with the little I could save,that continued till I got to my fourth year in the varsity, I thought within me I need to get my personal guitar to improve my play.
I made enquiry and the exact one I want was fourth five thousand naira , I knew within me the only way to get this was to have an extra work that will bring extra income.
I asked around if I could get any casual work that will fetch me extra money and wouldn't affect my studies because my parents mustn't know about it.
The jobs offer I got were so tideous that I couldn't do it, so I had to continue with only my academics but my mind was fully on how to get my dream guitar, '' my first love'' as I do call it.
The semester passed and it was time for my industrial training I.T, I told my dad I would love to work with him in lagos from Ibadan, I wouldn't mind doing any work just to get it.
My Father being an Iron bender took me in as a casual to work under him. My dear brother and sisters,
it wasn't easy but I had to do it to fulfill my goal.
Please let's all try and appreciate and pray for our parents for bringing food to the table.
I started working which I was paid #2000 daily, I could remember how hard I worked morning and afternoon.
I would bend iron with my thin hands and break casting.
To cut it short,I worked there for about 4 months and I was able to even raise more than what I needed.
Well after then I left there and I headed back to Ibadan to start my industrial training but it was too late where I applied.
I decided to go back to school (Ogbomoso) to get the guitar as I have already contacted the seller, but I was called by one of our neighbors that runs a school to help him take subjects instead of just wasting my IT period.
I took it as an opportunity and started working there where I was paid #13,000 monthly.
During the process I was advised by a friend to get a guitar pedal, fairly used #8000 which I concured to the deal.
After collecting my last salary,I joyfully went back to school to get the guitar (new) which I tagged""MY FIRST LOVE'' and I also bought an effect pedal(fairly used) with it.
There's this excitement in me that arises whenever a get a glance of this guitar.
Sadly I already sold coz I got another one but it'll always be my first love and true because it was my hardly earn asset.
NOTE ; ALL PICTURES WERE SHOT BY ME
See the price of this things just 2020, I know the price will have skyrocket now, I wish I could just get my own guitar at this price too but the country is not smiling at the moment.
Good to see you have your first love, music is life.
That jazz guitar is now 80k at least in the market. You can't get it for anything lesser.
