Today in music class, everyone had to bring the instrument they were good at playing. The music teacher was explaining that in jazz they just do what they want to and hardly practice. She wanted an example. She choose me. I had no idea what she was talking about. I stood up and went to the front of the class. "Sheridan here," she began, "will give us an example of jazz. She will start off singing a song that everyone knows. You guys will play on your instruments the beat as she and if needed, a back up singer, sings. Now," she said turning to me. She talked a bit softer. "Do you need backup?" "Erm...yes." I began. "You may begin." She said. "..." I looked around the class. "Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom." (this song [link]). My friend stood up. "Nom nom nom." She said softly. Everybody stood up and started playing. Perfect beat.


Wow. People are too awesome these days.
