Really Random Stuff

[Jocelyn]

I learned recorder on my own. Then we were supposed to learn it in school, and I got so bored because I knew everything they were teaching us. I would start playing random complicated songs, and everyone would stare at me and the teacher would yell at me to quit showing off. I was thinking, "I wasn't trying to show off, I was just expressing my boredom in the most polite way I could think of."

Good Job Ducky!!! Thats always so much fun to do! :) I remember doing that with my band teacher:)

I took recorder lessons, even though I was forced to be totured by it in grade school, so I could learn flute. But instead I was totured for nothing! I ended up learning how to play pain, and I learned recorder for about a year. I HATED it!

Recorder bothered me 'cause the kids who practiced were the kids everyone liked, and I never bothered to practice 'cause it was a waste of time for me. I wanted to play a real orchestral instrument.

Thank you for understanding!!!

[Jocelyn]

I never practiced what I was supposed to practice. I only practice what I want to practice.

[Robin]

XD Ha ha, nice, Ducky!

I definitely know how you feel, Lilli.

[Lilsurprise]

Go Ducky!

I know, but paino is worth the effort, it helps with my songs, so they actually have a tune.:)

[Jocelyn]

In comment 102 you said how to play PAIN. Did you mean piano?

[Jocelyn]

[Lilsurprise]

I taught myself how to play recorder because I got bored one day... I know how to play piano but I know I don't do the fingering right. I play mallets and it's the same layout as a piano but you use mallets. I'm attempting to learn to play guitar. I suck at tuning though so it makes it 10x harder.

[Jocelyn]

That sucks.

LOL, I remember that!!!!!!!!! The music teacher sucked that year. XD

[Jocelyn]

Her name was Mrs. Fraser.

[Kyra]

I sorta remember her. I didn't like her. The third and fifth grade teachers were good, though.

[Jocelyn]

I don't remember them.

[Fran]

My music teacher in grade school was the best. He was strict but a really great teacher. He retired the year after I graduated though.

[Jocelyn]

Lucky.

[Fran]

He kept saying that he was going to retire after all the -insert our last name here-'s graduated but then my little brother came and he didn't stay...

[Lilsurprise]

aww, unlucky brother, but lucky you! :)

[Jocelyn]

Indeed. XD

[Fran]

I know! A lot of people hated him but I never got why... He was strict but he wasn't mean or anything.

[Jocelyn]

That's how my second grade teacher was. He was an amazing second-grade teacher, but then he taught PE in fifth grade and everyone hated him.

[Kyra]

(headdesk) Great. My brother says he'd like to say hi, and will not leave the room until he does. Here he is, then...

then, a redcoat jumps out a door, yelling, "Rebel dogs!". Then he jumps overboard yelling "save yourselves" while cursing the name of Jimmy J. Johnson.

(sigh) Right. That's his way of saying "hi."

[Lilsurprise]

LOL!!!!! :)

[Kyra]

My brother is... interesting.

I liked him, I just didn't get him.

[Jocelyn]

Your brother has terrible grammar. Please tell him I said that.

[Fran]

Well, that's different.

[Robin]

XD Your reaction...So priceless! :D

[Fran]

*Coughyourcough*

[Robin]

OH ODD!! I feel like such an idiot now...I suppose it was 'cause I was distracted. I'm attempting to do to many things at once. XD

[Fran]

Eating a popsicle and typing is hard.

[Jocelyn]

Who's reaction?

[Kyra]

Frances'. And hey, Frances. Do I even WANT to know why you're eating a popsicle while typing???

[Jocelyn]

oh, yes, priceless

Oh, um, well according to my friend I'm addicted to popsicles because I'm always eating one while I'm texting him so yeah... I just like popsicles.

[Jocelyn]

Nice.

[Kyra]

Popsicles are very tasty. Especially cherry ones. XD

[Jocelyn]

Sure. XD

[Fran]

Yup, I like strawberry though!

[Zoe]

Is anyone on?

[Mel]

I am... a day later. :/ Sorry!

[Jocelyn]

I am, like, 6 days later!!!

[Kyra]

(sigh) I'm shocked you even got on that quickly. You're never on anymore. Even I'M starting to miss you a little, so you see how desperate our situation is. XD

[Jocelyn]

Dude, it's summer. I have the busiest summer ever, except for Frances's summers, anyway.

[Kyra]

Unfortunately, that's true enough.

[Kyra]

I'm changing my profile picture. The only reason I'm saying this is because last time I changed it Ducky got mad at me for switching it out on her. So... surprise, Ducky!!! XD

[Kyra]

Actually, it's a pic I don't think I'm allowed to put on the Net. Nevermind....
