My Blue Heaven

Ouchie

This morning, I slipped on the bathroom floor (coz it was wet), and hit the sink cabinet doorknob with my knee so hard that it broke off. OUCH. 🙁 And I hit it with the soft part of my knee too, that bit just below the knee cap.

Anyway, as promised, I’ve uploaded the mp3s finally –

• Wisdom (~9mb) – with my thurs night jazz fusion class. My solo (the 2nd piano solo) starts at around the 3:50 mins mark. At 3 mins, you can hear a buzz, which was caused by our 2nd guitarist just arriving and plugging in, also at which point the bass dropped out, and didn’t come back in till after my solo. (Great. Not.) Anyway… personally I cringe when I listen to this solo.
• Mosaic (~11mb) – the Fri night jazz fusion class. I subbed in for their keyboardist coz he was sick. My solo is the electric piano solo, at about the 6 min mark. I felt this one was somewhat better than my first solo. Listen carefully to the bass solo in this one… he rocks… and he’s asian!
• Softly As In A Morning Sunrise (~7mb) – A jazz performance group class, probably the best one of the night. I didn’t perform in this song. This is just to show you something different.. some traditional swing jazz, instead of the modern jazz fusion that I’ve been doing. I might go back to doing this next year. Its somewhat easier than jazz fusion (at least the chords are!) The pianist in this group is quite good!

So there you have it. 🙂

Last night I went to dance class, hoping to learn the rest of that Britney dance. But Ramon wasn’t teaching!! Grr. So guess I missed out. Poo. 🙁 I went instead to Michael Boyd’s class, which is always pretty funky. The routine he taught was actually an old routine that I’d learnt when I went to his class earlier this year, to Gerling’s “Who’s your daddy”. A very fun and.. err.. raunchy routine. Heh.

Then, when I got home, Coltrane was soooo adorable!! He was being really affectionate.. whilst I was eating, he sat next to me gazing up at me with those big green eyes, waiting for a little morsel from my dinner. Then every so often he’d reach up with his front paw onto my arm.. like he was saying “Aw c’mon give me some food…. preettty pleeeeease… ” Hehe. So I gave in, just coz I love him so much. 😛

Afterwards, he was all happy, leaped onto my lap, snuggled right in and purred away sleepily. Hee. 🙂 Then he nestled his head into my jacket, and wrapped one paw around my arm. Sooooo CUTE! 😀
