Jazz Ensemble

So, Thursday, I went to my school's jazz ensemble. It was good; the teacher was friendly, the kids were OK. But there were assignments from the previous week that I needed to sightread. It was hard on some songs, I remember on one song there were only two chords to play and the melody was hard, too, so I just played the two chords over and over.
Sunday, I'm going trick-or-treating as Elton John. I wonder what he would think of it. Then, November 2 is Election Day, so I get off from school. After all that, I move on with my life. That's pretty much all I have to say right now.

Return from Hiatus

I had a huge hiatus from this blog. I think the last time I was here was May 2009. Anyways, I hope to blog as much as I can, starting now:
Sometimes fighting fire with fire isn't the answer. Let's say there are two friends. One friend is angry at the other for not getting him a birthday card. The second friend could defend himself, but since it usually is in an angry tone, that anger would escalate into a serious hatred for each other. Instead, the second friend should say, calmly, "You know what, I did forget to buy you a card. I'm sorry, I'll be sure to get you one." The whole thing is resolved. All he had to do was admit he made a mistake. Imagine how much better the world would be if we admitted our mistakes instead of fighting fire with fire, because that has been known to burn people.
