Things on my mind recently..
Here is a short list of what’s on my mind recently..
- The Awakening is an awful book.. Full of impressionism which is not facts, only perceptive feeling. In other words. Dull.
- Matrices although odd, are helpful in pre-calculus.
- Ryan Huard is a pretty nifty kid.
- In Stargate scores, Saxophones = past tense. Awesome.
- Stargate music is also sometimes “too intense” at times… which is amusing.
- Hanukkah music is fantastic. Especially The Eighth Candle.
- Ryan’s grandmother is a sweet lady and I’m wishing her a happy birthday tomorrow.
- Stomp is amazing. Seeing them last night was great, it was a wonderful night.
- The guy playing with paper was my favorite. It was so cool that he talked to us after the show.
- Fun Holidays are coming up soon.
- Kitties are warm and snuggley.
- Texting is a convenient method of communication.
- Being a percussionist would be very fun.
- Finding other people who wear pi shirts makes me happy can you find it? here! (thanks for pointing it out, John!)
- Cat Surprise Parties seem interesting…
- Fall Quarter ends in 3 weeks.
- John Keats was a cool guy. He wrote three books of poems before he died when he was 25. Chaucer hadn’t written anything when he was 25.
- Flowers make me happy.
- Life is Good.

From what I’ve heard, Awakenings is indeed an awful book.
At least, we know your British Lit at the college is WAY better than your AP Lit class at the high school.
I agree, Stomp was amazing. And it was great that the one guy took time to come talk to your big group of 100. He was cool.
Your kitties are very snuggley, though they are also crazy and think they run the household.
I’m surprised you didn’t list the fact that college classes are way better than high school classes.
Nice to see you post an update again!
I’m loving that you’re watching Stargate! I hadn’t noticed the saxophone trend – I’ll have to watch for that now. The music is a bit over dramatic at times, but it’s great fun. The seasons and episodes just get better and better.
Ryan is pretty nifty. As are you.
I’ve always wanted to see stomp!
Although I don’t recall a lot about working with them, I also thought matrix’s are pretty cool.
I didn’t realize you were doing Hanukkah music, are there carols?
Stomp was indeed very fun, I thought it so interesting that they did a complete show that was very entertaining throughout with zero dialogue – everything was communicated solely through sounds and expressions.
Texting may be convenient, but I have to say it’s probably more so for you than it is for those of us with fatter fingers.
Life is good, so are your posts!
Oh, and I wanted to ask – when you played the marimba, was that considered percussion? You were very good at it, and looked like you had great fun, especially on the big bass ones.
Matrices are pretty cool. Today I learned that the determinants of them can give the area of something. Usually at school to be politically correct and happily including everyone we play a variety holiday music. This year we also have Ukrainian Bell Carol (Carol of the Bells
)
I suppose marimba would count as percussion.. or “battery” (instruments you bat! haha..) I would enjoy playing auxiliary percussion for an ensemble, if I had the chance.
