The Healing Power of Hip Hop

I woke up this morning with the usual desire to stay in bed for a while. I am not sure the last time I jumped out of bed ready for the day. Maybe it's because my day starts so much later during the summer than during the school year. I had some breakfast and just didn't feel right. Actually I felt bad. My body flipped between cold and hot and I started to get a little dizzy. I thought about canceling my classes today, but since I planned to show a video for part of class, I thought it would be okay to just try and teach. If there was a problem, I would give them the rest of the time to work with their partners on their history presentations.

I got to the UClub at 11AM since I really didn't know exactly what I would be doing in class today. I wanted to change up the combo from last session. I will probably continue to change it a little more since it's still a little too drill team-y for my taste. Apparently I don't have the key to the storage closet, so I was not able to show a bit of Hip Hop: Behind the Rhythm and Rhymes in class today. Instead I was able to evaluate them 3 at a time on last weeks combination so I have a better idea of their improvement as we get further along in the session.

I have an hour and a half before my next class and even thought I'm relaxing on the couch, I do indeed feel better. I am trying to drink more water, but my nalgene is ALL THE WAY on the dining table and I really don't want to walk the 4 feet to get it.

I got an email from Wyatt this morning trying to schedule a rehearsal. He woke up in the middle of the night and got a little nervous about our show on the 18th of September. I wanted to make sure that Stephanie would be in attendance since it does not make a huge amount of sense for me to rehearse without her. I got this message in response.

I am having some second thoughts about Stephanie, we sound great together, and her voice makes me want to smash my face through a two pane window. Should be fun living with her after that though

I have to say that I'm a bit relieved. I was not a fan of her musicality or lack thereof. Oh, on that note, I warmed up my class today with a little Isaac Hayes. A little memorial. Now that's one man with a little musicality and a LOT of soul.
