i just practiced for 1.5 hours!! it was so fun. i learned a couple variations to Twinkle, Twinkle and i also learned the song Banana Boat which is their title for the song where you sing:
DEYYYYY-OOOHHHHHH
ME SAY DEYYYYYY-OOOOOHHHHH
DAYLIGHT COME AND ME WANT TO GO HOME!
i don't know why i just caps locked that, but there you go. since i am getting ahead of myself, i went back to the beginning of the book and worked through all those songs for a good 4o min of the time. practiced tone as well as half notes.
and in between there, got a skype call from rojas, so i got to play the two new songs for him real quick. that was sweet! hopefully i can keep this amount of time for practicing up, then i might catch up to my dad. nah, probably not. but it's still good to keep it up if i want to play ska by christmas. i've already voted that my goal of playing on street corners will have to wait for the warmer spring air of 2010.
