QUICK!!!! TYPE FASTER!!!

Alright I got 10 minutes to blog because i want some shut eye after a long day/night.
Pretty much today I'm feeling much better (I've been sick of late) although if you asked me to run some laps I'm pretty sure I'd fail.
Today I had an after school mission to get some passport photos taken so I went to Parramatta Westfield and had no idea where I was going (I went on a wild goosechase up 4 levels). Thankfully my friend Amara (who I don't see enough of) knew exactly where to go and I had them done and we parted ways after a quick catchup. I then caught the train home and tried to avoid eye contact with these massive fobs sitting opposite me so I messed around with my iPod (which I hate to death) for a few minutes. I then found out that my train terminated a stop before where I needed to get off so I just walked to Tim's house and just waited to be picked up. That's my day. School was average.

I now have 3 minutes left so I'm gonna preach the word of--------JAZZ

I know plenty of people that will groan and instantly tune out at the mention of the word but I need to vent some words (I think I will take longer than 3 minutes) at those people. It's ignorance. The very rock music that most people listen too have their roots in jazz, it didn't just come from nowhere. Many people think it's just elevator music without listening to it. To appreciate JAZZ you need to understand it, which many people fail to do and so will turn a blind eye. I highly doubt any of them have actually sat down and listened to a song. To understand the complexity of the genre, the calibre of the musicians (I see all these people worshipping these rock stars, the jazz muso's would absolutely destroy them head to head and the rockers know that) I'M GOING OVER TIME NOW BUT I WILL CONTINUE

Understanding the form of the music and appreciating the difficulty of it. It's something you must open your ears to. I'm just sick of these people that listen to their asian pop music and say "I hate jazz!"- the fact that they've never listened to it and will say that makes me angry and at the same time, sad that they have never listened and probably never will listen to jazz. I respect other people's taste of music, however bad it may be, but to bring down an artform without ever truly appreciating it is a crime.

Anyway, I went 9-10 minutes over (from the last thing typed). If you're interested in trying jazz (at first I was apprehensive, but here I am...) I'd be happy to tailor something to your taste and unravel the mysteries of this art for you. The more the merrier! Unless it's something like genocide, in which case this is probably not a good idea.

Btw Dani my mind is like an AC motor, I'll explain if you ask.

Night people, I'm turning in before 11:30 tonight, nice and early.
