I am posting...

Yes I am have now posted. It has been ages. Sorry guys I just cant be bothered! I have had so much homework. It kind of sux, but then thats TEE. I wish I hadnt of done TEE, but then again think of the opportunities i will have after year 12. Not far now. Soon I will be wearing the leavers jackets of my college. That will be such a sad event. Goodbye school, goodbye childhood. It must be scary too. But then there are so many things to look forward to. The school ball, your drivers liscence, graduation evening, leavers, etc. Well I think it be best I stay in year 11 and study my butt off. Fun, fun. Well I have am listening to Coldplay's CD Parachute. Its awesome hey. Parachute. That is a very weird word. Anyway, its a good relaxing cd, thanks caris. So, i just thought I would blog. Oh Matt is comin back from New Zealand. Bet Fiona can't wait. I am expecting a prezzie Matt. Nah just joking. Well have a nice one everybody! See you all later. *Waves to Alice "Hello!"*

Jazz- for real

FAR OUT! For this whole week I have been at a jazz camp and I have to say that i thoroughly LOVED it. It was run by Where is Jazz WA, camp co-ordinator was Glyn MacDonald (buy his album, glyn macdonald trio). The tutors include Matt Jodrell (totally awesome trumpet player), Troy Roberts (sax), Peter Jeavons (awesome bass player), Tom O' Halloran (piano), Gary Lee (guitar/vibes), bronwyn way (voice) and others (sorry I can't remember their names sadly!). These guys took their time and effort to teach us improv. Which is totally awesome. A special thanks to Pete. He was the one who taught me improv as I was in his improv/ensemble class. I meet alot of great people there. These people are so young and yet they can improve just like James Morrison. Gemma, Symphony many others. That totally cool bass player (I think his name is Josh) was totally cool. There was this one piano player (of whom i call piano man, i kept on forgetting his name) Phil, is such a fantabulouso improviser. And he was a year younger than me! Everyone was younger and yet they were so cool! I finally learnt how to improvise without looking stupid. 90% of improvisation being good is due to your confidence. When your up there just be confident and have fun. By doing this you will be able to improvise heaps better. Well i have learnt many things on this camp. To improvise, have fun, be confident and that Matt Jodrell is now my faveourite jazz player. James Morrison is awesome dont get me wrong, but Matt adds this zap to it. Sounds totally awesome. Anyway I must be off. Have a nice one and I shall see you later!

No I am not a stalker. This guy (in the middle holding the trumpet) is the best Trumpeter this side of next week. He has the best sound EVER! Matt Jodrell. Buy his album, cause I definetely will. 

Me again. Playing the lead in the big band for the second song 'Badger Blues". Very nerve racking. Badger Blues is the BEST song ever. 

Me in the best out of all Big Bands. We truly were the best big band out of the other two.That guy next to me with the curly black hair is so fantabulouso at the trumpet. I am so going to buy his album when he makes one. And he will make one... 

Me again playing... With little Symphony next to me playing the sax. That girl is gonna go real far one day... 

Me at Jazz Camp getting ready for my improvisation solo! Agh! 

Stomp at school... Hardcore...not really. 

A tired me after Marc's goodbye party... My purty dress.

I felt i was part of their youth group again. weird huh? thats not a bad thing but frantik was my home ever since that church started. half the people there i didnt know but thats ok. so it was a great night and i will be posting the pics soon once shnoobly has posted up her pics (hurry hurry shnoobly!) so anyway, this week i am going to karri valley resort! Yay! Yes again. So I am going to relax. When was the last time i relaxed? *Thinks to herself* I cant even remember. When was the last time i slept in? I cant remember that either. So i deserve this holiday. I really really do. Then the week after that I am going to a jazz conference. So i am gonna be busy. Thats why I am looking forward to karri valley. And i have spending money. Yay again. Today was the churchs first birthday! Happy Birthday Cityview! And it was also our first time in the new hall. Cool bananas.
