Jazz Solo and Ensemble

( Quizzes )

So we did our jazz ensemble at that little contest. Our biggest fan was our bus driver, lol . . . she was our roadie, our groupie, our paparazzi, complete with camera and everything.

This is cool, though: I didn't realize "Lullaby of Birdland" (one of the pieces we played) actually had lyrics:

( Lullaby of Birdland )

I also, as they say, "covered myself in glory." As we were waiting to leave, I was Bothering Robert-- you know, as in "Bothering Snape" (http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/potter.php)-- I have this thing, based on that (even though neither of them have seen it), where I go *with British accent* "Hi, I'm Amy" *with high British accent* "And I'm Robert!" *with original British accent* "And we're going to bother Alice. Ready? Go!" Only this time, Alice wasn't there, and so it was just me bothering Robert, and I tried to do the part from "Trouble at Hogwarts" (the sequel) where Ron comes flying in, "AAAHHHHHH!!!"-- and then stops, and stands there for a while, and finally goes, "BOTHER!!!"

So when I tried to do the "BOTHER!!!" I fell over. Yes, fell straight over. I fell flat on my back and just laid there laughing forever. Robert had to help me up after Mr. Briddell told me to get up. I think it was because I had tractionless shoes, but that was still pretty funny . . . a bunch of people looked at me, and so I had to wave. I also started bleeding, and had to make myself a poultice (yet another one) out of toilet paper to wear under my tights, lol . . .

My computer is getting annoying to burn CDs. I've gone through eight of them just trying to get Jessica's CD made. They just shut down the Windows Media Player program.

I am going to babysit some people tonight, and then tomorrow it's dress rehearsal for our concert, which is on Monday (YHO). Aww, no tutoring, then. I really need to get in more hours.

Working for hours is so pointless, you know. Just in general, even. It just makes you extend out the work. I would work more efficiently if I knew I could go back home and slack off as soon as I got done.

I finally did see "Braveheart."

Movies I still need to see (off the top of my head right now):
1) Citizen Kane.
2) Dogma.
3) Fahrenheit 9/11.

All have been recommended to me at some point or another, and I've just never gotten around to seeing them.
