first week of spring semester..

so things have been going well so far. havent had my monday class yet, but its only one class from 4-6. tuesday i had my bob marley performance studies ensemble class. it was awesome. wednesday i had my private lesson, an accompanying/singing class, and flo-ology which is so freakin awesome. thursday i had lyric writing and jazz/blues lab. my jazz/blues lab was amazing... its with this new teacher rhiannon, and she just made us improvise over a random musical language she made up. it was awesome. i will have to show you guys sometime her technique of teaching. it is awesome. and fridays i dont have any classes so far.

being back in boston is refreshing. i must say the snow hasn't bothered me too much, but enough for me to complain about it. first of all, most of the shortcuts are blocked from the snow so i must walk all the way around something i would have normally walked through. thats like an extra 4 minutes added to my total time of walking to school. ahaha. omg ok not too big of a deal. but damn there are so many puddles that look like that its powdered snow but end up soaking ur feet and getting ur socks wet. sucky.

i miss California weather right now, but not so much Cali i guess.. for NOW anyway... i know i'll be missing it dearly in about 2 weeks but for now im enjoying the vibe here in Boston. i'm liking it and thats rare so i'm trying not to screw it up. stepping in puddles still gets me kinda mad though.

OMG but WOW the other day i think it was wednesday.. i was walking thru a little thin passage that didnt have that much snow because it was where people walk through to get to the other side of the road... and i freakin SLIPPED and fell for a long time. like i couldnt get up. my hand kept slipping as i was trying to use it to get me up. and the whole time i was looking at the guy behind me who just turned and walked around the island. it was messed up. omg i laughed and made a scene for myself because nobody asked if i was okay. the people walking towards my direction started laughing out loud cuz they probably couldn't hold it in. how EMBARASSING. i am scarred for life. i step with dear care now, as if i might die if i step without thinking. i look at the ground with so much focus now its ridiculous. i hope this never happens to you.

heres the 2nd video of the series. my next one will be a beatles or carpenters one. i think. love yall
i know this is not that old but i would still consider it a classic.

Hahaha! I ain't gon' lie, but I would've laughed as well WHILE helping you out. Jacked up people for just plain out laughing and not helping you to get up, though. Should've socked them in the face! :p

So it's raining here in Cali and it's snowing in Boston... it reminds me of your song "Little Piece of Home."

Left on a jet plane not too long ago
Said our goodbyes by a taxi in the snow
Ok maybe it was rain but I like to think there wasnt so much pain
Cuz snow is pure and thats what I thought we were

Can you tell I've been listening to your songs 24/7? Yeah, pretty much.

I'm glad you're enjoying it up in Boston so far and I hope you continue to. Your classes sound really awesome. [:

It WAS raining in Cali, but it's been getting warmer and sunnier lately. Typical Cali weather :]

Oh and, I've fallen in the icy snow. But the worst part was, I wasn't in snow gear! So it was freezing cold with just a sweater & jeans. I would've at least helped you up though. They're just messed up.
