HELLLO INTERNET! it is ME AGAIN THIS MONYAY!!! Yippee!!! this is the seconf to last monyay before i die for 3 whole monyays..... Oh man... i feel like my summer is already over... i only h ave two weeks left before my chaos of a billion trips helll... Yay. Haha. anywyas...so GUESS WHAT!! i learned to play the CONGA today!!! it was awesome!!! i went to my class after the break last week and Nico Bro was 15 mins late.. he got a new student and he ALWAYSYSS goes late on lessons which is fun like Thx ik he cares Ig... but anyways this new student... Another teen girl.. maybe younger than me.. was in that class to learn the conga???? so i went in and he was like 'Ya i just got a kid who is learning the conga... u wanna try?? it kinda relates to jazz.. and latin music is my specialty' and i was like Omg what thats so cool OFC i wanna try.... sooo anyways theres these giant congas in the room and i learn... i like percussion instruments because unlike any other instruments a lot of them require u to MANSPREAD SO HARD and its so funny i feel so silly (im a #1 manspreader). anyways you have to liek shove the conga between your legs and like tilt it for better resonance or something and its Super awesome.. although its REALLY hard... like you think ur just banging it? NO ITS HARD!!!

song of the week!
"Mix bag, grab bag, pop the question
Have a ball runnin' wild between your spaghetti legs
Mix bag, grab bag, dirty pots
You'd best believe my love could fix the faucet"

"I tip top topple over for my fun loving nun
Cause she has so much fun, so much joy
And so much wonderful love for everyone
She’s not like an ordinary person no she’s not
She turns a lonely room into a happy place
Transforms a grumpy look into a smiling face"
i was struggling rly hard actually to like... hit it good... like you have to use this certain part of your hand and like curl ur fingers all weird and its Tough! but he was like Ya its hard..... and then he was explaining all this latin music Crap to me and it was like. Oh man bro i JUST started to understand jazz and all those terms and how that works and then BOOM threw me into another World bro. it was funy he said like "ya idk if u noticed but i actually lead the afro cuban band at the middle school i work at (which is actually the middle school that i went to LOL) and i actually specialize in latin music and latin percussion and stuff" and i.. already knew that... LOL.. i did notice... he saif that cuz i follow his Damn instagram Ew.. anyways its actually REALLY cool like this WHOLE OTHER WORLD of music!!! and i learned about... clave.. beats??? and... many words that i forgot and i learned a latin beat and it was Super AWESOMELY COOL!!! i felt like a cool Baddie. but its really hard and i was struggling. a Alot. and then idk what the joke was but while he was writing down sheet music he made some joke and i laughed at it and he was like Thanks for laughing at all my jokes. Even though they aren't even funny. and i was like LOL no i like them. that was funny...... erm. anyways i did it and i was livin the awesome life... and then i picked my cuticle and it started bleedingNAW so i had to ask for a bandaid... and i had to confess my cuticle picking problem to him and he was like Ya me too.. so Ya then i told the story of when i started bleeding on piano keys during a class once and i was like Ya that was embarassing and he said Ya that IS embarassing... THANKS A LOT BRO. thx for the bandaid though. that i took off like immedietly after. anyways piano was horrible hell and horrible and i hate piano and i HATE IT
like OH MY GOD. Yk. i play the piano a LOT. and i can pretty much play whatever the HELL I WANT. ive been playing it a lot this week since i discovered a ton of of montreal songs with piano in it and i swear when i play i feel like a little genius because i can just look up the chords/tabs of a song and i can figure out how to play it REALLYY EASY like i can learn whatever Freaking song i want (thanks to Nico's teaching Tbh.... i never wouldve been able to do that before) . so when im at home i feel like a piano genius because i literally was able to figuer out songs like that.. i learned like 4 songs in the past 24 hours. like. Comeo n. but WHEN I STEP IN THAT DAMN ROOM WITH NICO ALL MY SKILLS EVERYTHING DISAPPEARS AND I LOOK LIKE A DAMN IDIOT. oh my GOD. ok first of all i have NO idea what to practice.. its all so vague. so i did NOT practice whatever my AUDITION STUFF FROM MY JAZZ BAND AUDITION A MONTH AGO CUZ I THOUGHT I WASS DONE. but NO he asked me to pull it out and comp and solo to FREAKING Blue 7 CRAP and i was like Bro. i DIDNT KNOW I HAD TO PRACTICE THAT BECAUSE WE DID NOT DO THAT 2 WEEKS AGO?? and he was like.. ok Comp to Blue 7... and i was like ok... and i DID and hewas like NOT ENOUGH. SWITHC IT UP. VOICE LEADING. INVERSIONS. and i was like... AHDBaHAhaHa Okay. and hewas like. "DONT be ashamed. its MY job to teach. but you should KNOW this. Fr. DONT be ashamed. DOnt give me that look" OK WTF?????? WTTTFFF????? IS WERONG WITH HIM. HE WENT ON AND ON ABOUT WHATEVR CRAP AND I WAS LIKE oh my god. my face got all red and i was just like Okay Yeha Thumbs uP!!!!!! bro i swear to god. idk why i freeze up. because i KNOW i could do that crap EASY at home but i have no confidence!!
hello this song has no lyrics its just piano... im putting it becaue i just learned it on the piano!! its so fun and Whimsy awesomeness..... did you know that coquelicot means poppy in french? poppy is the name of my cat!! this album is awesome!!! and this song is adorable and super duper fun to play on the piano... although it is short and sweet!
"Won't end up like you want us to be
But so what cause we're always gonna be happy
Cause we don't give a shit about tomorrow
Tell us we'll regret those things we did
But we're just gonna give you a big wet kiss
Cause we don't give a shit about tomorrow"
"It’s that time, that time of the month
Well I woke up early and I got a hunch
Gonna head on down to the beach today, surf all my girl probs away
‘Cause all I wanna do is cry, ask mother nature why why why
Listen to The Cramps on my stereo, turn it up as loud as it will go
Surfin’, surfin’ the wave
All the girls are surfin’ the wave
Surfin’ the crimson wave today"
