Learning Through The Web

I intend to make this summer as fun and worthwhile for me and my kids as possible as I can. And instead of enrolling them in Summer Workshops, I decided to make full use of of the internet and do whatever they want with the help of the internet.

So, Lucas wants to build things with popsicle sticks. I am not very crafty, so this particular thing is quite challenging for me.:P

Chakai wants to learn how to Belly Dance, I already know the basics, so this was pretty easy for both of us, and now we’re trying to learn more advanced moves and hopefully be able to lose the gut we’re both sporting.:P

Both kids want to learn to play the guitar, and you know what, I do too. I’ve never had music lessons in my life, and although I can play the piano a little bit, I don’t know how I do it because I can’t read musical notes, I just listen to the music and figure out how it’ll sound on the piano, I’d really love to learn how to play the guitar.

ANEticipating Movie: Iron Man 3

Iron Man 3

 

I am still a Batman fan and I will always love Batman, the character from the cartoons, but NOT Christian Bale’s version of Batman, although I admit, the movies are wicked, except I don’t like how Bale portrayed Batman.

Anyway, this is about another multi-millionaire-turned-superhero.

Inasmuch as I love Bruce Wayne, Tony Stark is such a hottie, it’s not hard to love him too. So I think maybe I’m liking them both equally now, let’s wait for the next Batman movie and see.:P

ANEticing Character: Bleeding Gums Murphy

I am an 80’s music fan through and through, I think I’ve said that already so many times already, but I just love saying it. The fashion was atrocious, but the music was splendid.

However, although I loooove 80’s music a lot, I also enjoy other genres of music, like Rhythm and Blues and Jazz. I don’t think I’ve mentioned this before, but I like falling asleep to jazz music and when I was single and still had a room to myself, I’d often leave my radio on and have my jazz cd on it. It’s soothing and even though there are no words (I’m referring to jazz instrumentals), you will still feel the emotion behind every musical note being played.

Now, I may not know a lot about jazz music, I appreciate it, but I am not an expert on it and although I am familiar with some of the instruments used to create such beautiful music, there’s definitely still a lot of things I need to learn and a lot of jazz musicians to discover.

The Saxophone is one musical instrument that is often used in jazz music. If you watch The Simpsons, like I do, quite a lot, then you probably know this already, thanks to Lisa and their resident Rhythm and Blues Jazz musician, Murphy Kenneth “Bleeding Gums Murphy” Hibbert.
