My Favorite Acoustic Guitar

When I was in Junior High School, my mother bought me an acoustic guitar. It was my
first guitar. I learned some basic guitar chord with it. It accompanied me since I was a
beginner who know nothing about guitar, until I managed to improve my skill to a better
level. Even though I have another guitar right now, but this one is still my favorite. The
sound is still as clear as it was. Its classic and simple design is just irreplaceable.

My favorite acoustic guitar is mainly made of mahogany wood. It is a steel-string type of

acoustic guitar. Three different colour were used to cover the major parts of the guitar. The
colour of the front side is peach with wooden fiber pattern which intentionally designed to
be clearly visible with our eye. The colour of the back side is black, and the colour of the
edges is dark brown. The neck of the guitar was painted in black, but the headstock is dark
brown. The tuning pegs or tuning keys are made of white plastic and is attached to
the headstock, three on the top side and three on the bottom side. There is a part called
"nut" placed between the neck and the headstock. It is made of white plastic too.
The fret of the guitar is mainly made of copper. There is only one sound hole on my guitar
and it is located at the end part of the neck. The bridge, where the end part of the strings
were attached, is made of wood and is painted in black.

A trip to Mount Fuji

July 2016, I went to West Tokyo by plane. It was my first journey to Japan. I took a trip to
Mount Fuji. I stayed at Sakura’s house. She is my friend in Japan. We were a classmate at
Senior High School. Sakura’s house has a big garden with lots of green flowers and beautiful
sand. It was so perfect element of a traditional wooden house.
 
On Sunday morning, I started a journey to the Mountain. At Shizuoka Prefecture, I met Yamato.
He was my guiding to Mount Fuji. We took sushi for breakfast. Oh my God, It was delicious. At
9:00 am. local time, we prepared and checked our stuff to continue this journey. I couldn’t say
anything when I looked at the beautiful scenery from the foot of the mountain. Yamato looked
and smiled at me. He said in Japan language “Kore Wa subarashīdesu.” It means that it was
amazing. Then, I replayed “Hai,-sōdesu.” It means that yes, it was.
 
We reached the top of the mountain after a long and tiring trip. I screamed to blow up my
emotion and said thanks to God for this beautiful life. We enjoyed the view from the peak and
waiting for the next day. The day that I couldn’t forget. It was called “Hatsu Hinode” It means
 that it was my first time to see the sun rises in Mount Fuji.

very pleasant moment that I ever got.
