Epic Fail

So, yes, my memory presentation didn't go well.

I got stuck on "say may name"... afterword (from memory, scout's honor) it would have gone Enter Sandman, Sabotage, Mmmbop, My Heart Will Go On, Loser, What a Man, Jump around, Black Hole Sun, My name is..., Mr. Jones, Livin' La Vida Loca, Ice Ice Baby, Tearin' my Heart to pieces,

Then I cross the street (In my memory theatre)

Creep (Love Radiohead by the way), No Diggity, Wannabe, Semi-Charmed Kind of Life, Wonderwall, Everybody Dance Now, Good riddance (Time of your life), Jeanie in a Bottle, Iris, I wanna sex you up, Two Princes, Shine, My Lovin', Killing me Softly, I only wanna be with you, You're still the one, Good Vibrations, 3 A.M., Who will save your soul, Man in the Box.

It was just a little embarrassing (OK, maybe more than a little) to fall flat on my face in class. With the accident downtown I had to change my memory theature, which I started right away on friday. My new memory theature, however, was less concrete, a little shaky, and when I stood up in front of the class... poof... I couldn't remember my new memory theature, much less the songs attached to it.

I can do the songs "smells like teen spirit" through "Say My Name" rather automatically because they still reside in parts of my old memory theature; parts that weren't part of the accident downtown, but most everything after that was originaly located around Boodle's and the Rockin' R.

Anyway, My apologies for my ever-so-epic failure. Dr Sexson said that given my situation he was not going to hold it against me, however I don't feel inclined to let myself off so easily. I may be redoing my recital come Wednesday.

Congrats to everyone that nailed their demonstrations. See you all on Wednesday

Memory theatre catastrophe

So, I'm sure I needn't inform anybody of yesterday's misfortunes; the accident at Boodle's and the Rockin R Bar, and I probably wouldn't bring it up in a blog for this class except for the fact that...

Downtown Bozeman is my MEMEORY THEATURE! And now it is quite exploded.

So, I can pretty well remember what is no longer there, and imagine the Rockin R and Boodle's, (And Starkey's if that is gone too) but at the same time a nagging part of me wants to "adjust" my memory theatre. It shouldn't be hard but it means re-aligning all of my songs (I'm memorizing songs) to the new locations, so... I will be downtown this weekend (hopefully it will be accesable) putting songs into diferent shop windows... should be a blast. (I didn't intend for that to be a tasteless pun)
