I do play an instrument. *Sort of. I don't think I'm very good at any of them, but everyone else says I'm good.*
Piano--about 6 years, but only had a few months of lessons.
Percussion (Drums, Bells, Chimes, crap like that)--about 4 years
Steel drum-- I quit after 6th grade because it was a summer thing, and when I turned 12, I had to go to girls' camp, but I'd been doing it about 4 years.
French Horn-- One year; that was the year I quit band because we had a sucky teacher. I only played because I thought it was a cornet until I saw it and then realized I'd made a major mistake. I wanted the cute litte trumpet-like instrument, but I didn't know what it was called. And I refused to play the trumpet because the trumpet players pissed me off and I refused to sit with them.
Marimba-- About 2 years in elementary school
Guitar-- About 5 or 6 years. I had a brief time when I had lessons, but it was by my band teacher, who taught me nothing. I taught myself how to play, but haven't played in a while because my mom gave the guitars to my bro.
I can play the ukelele about as well as I play the guitar, but the ukelele also belongs to my bro, so I never get to play it.
I own a keyboard, but it's at the school right now, to be used for choir. *Hooray*
So, I guess that means that I also use my voice as an instrument. I've been singing forever, been in choir for a semester and 5 weeks. (We got a new choir and new band teacher, so...Hooray! *cough cough.* I mean Huzzah!)
Mind you, I'm not very good at any of these instruments.
I wish I could play the guitar better. And sing better. And possibly the cornet.
