My most educational experience would have to be learning how to play the guitar.  I've always wanted to learn how to play since I was little.  I found myself so fascinated with the instrument for some reason and not sure why.  I've always been into singing so I figured, why not play the guitar along too?  John Mayer's music was the first I was interested in playing.  He has the sound about him and his music is so chill and down to earth.  As if learning how to play the guitar wasn't challenging enough, try adding on learning how to play a right handed guitar while being left handed.  I found myself getting so frustrated in the beginning when all I wanted to do was get the tune down and keep a steady pace.  I would watch YouTube tutorials and have my grandpa teach me the basics.  Your Body Is A Wonderland was the first song I learned how to play on the guitar.  Then it went from there.  I would have friends that have been playing for years teach me how to play other songs by various amounts of bands and artists.  Such as, Maroon 5, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Coldplay, and more.  Some of the songs I only have a certain part down.  I can't really tell why learning how to play an instrument was my most educational experience.  Maybe because I partially taught myself.  I was able to challenge myself in learning how to play a right handed guitar before a left.  I'm glad I went forward in learning how to play.  It's fun and gets my mind of things and is just kills time.  Recently moving here from Florida, I unfortunately had to leave my guitar back home because I already had a lot of luggage.  I hope when I go back home to visit in the summer that I'll be able to remember how to play.  Playing the guitar isn't different and yes there are a lot of people who play, but everyone has their own tune. Everyone who plays has something that makes them different and that is why learning how to play the guitar was my most educational experience.
