Hehe Sorry! I haven't been on for 2 days!! I think, hehe.
Erm, well *sigh* school has started!! But I guess, the first day wasn't as bad as I had thought it would be!
As usual I had gotten ready, I had to miss first and 2nd lesson, because I was picked to do this Indian drumming thing! :)
First things first is that, I have to do my violin lesson! The lock for the door (The music lockers) is really hard to open!! :( Whenever I see someone walk past me, I always ask them to open the door for me! -°-(ノД `)-°- Any ways, it was good! Hehe, I just had to tell him, my abilities and play a piece.
Then right after that, I had to go to the Indian drumming which was in the Art Atrium, when I walked in, it was kinda awkward, the guy teaching was playing with this Piano, mixed with acordian thing? And it was dead silent!! Kinda awkward! I sat down at an empty spot, sat next to a girl names Millie, she's really nice! :) We are allowed to try these different type of instruments! Like drums!! They were really interesting!! I liked this instrument, they're in the shape of really big tweezers and has bells at both side, when you loosen it up, and kinda smack both sides together, makes really harsh bells sounds! ^_^ It was fun, although everybody had drums etc~ haha. Since we were playing with rhythms, I asked if I can do any thing else, since it's pretty boring.. And so he showed me, in the end I asked if that's it ^^; he said that, I can get up, and dance whilst throwing it around, but I passed Haha, In the end I asked If I can sit on the floor though! Because I just wanted to sit in the middle of the circle and also because the sun was in my eyes!! :( So I did, and haha, Millie also sat down, and so did other people there did! Haha. I could see better!! I had the choice to change my instrument(into the tabla), but I passed hehe. Even though I did soon regret it!! Hehe, I got asked if I wanted to change again, he gave me like a big drum (not an indian instrument) and one, that sounds like a lot of people clapping at once! I changed into the clapping one!! When I sat too far away, the sun ended up shining on my face again! :( so I used the person sat next to me, that was on the chair (me being on the floor) to block the sun for me! Hehe, i kept telling him ".... no no.. ....NOW STAY!" and so he did!! then he moved.. :( .. then he sat up again, and blocked for me hehe, but not to tire him out, i just sat closer next to him, which worked better.
We also learnt to clap in beat
Dha, na, na, na, Tin, na, na, na
I got confused
Basically
Dha is the loudest whilst Tin was the open beat!!
na, was small beats in between! :)
oh well, we did the whole rhythm together!! hehe, hmm, also, since I said I liked classical music (which i adore!) he played us indian classical music! It was very calm1! :D
I guess, that's about it! :/
Err, nothing else really happend tbh, those 2 lessons were basically the highlight of my day hehe..
グッドナイト! !
