Sunny Days Kiki

I’m missing the Mexico sun.

In my old age, I’m totes ready for those days where I retreat to my “winter home” in some sunny paradise.

I don’t mind autumn, it’s actually my favourite season, but sometimes the grey skies creep up on you and will def have you in your feelings a little bit.  

Instead of being a mopey cow for no sensible reason, I’m mixing old tunes and feeling quite content.  What else is new?  I don’t own any new records.  LOL.  

I do actually listen to new stuff every once in a while.  I just happen to really, really, really enjoy my old records. 😍😍😍

This tune always makes me think of Dj Kali.  I loved our Code Blue & Kali tagteam duo liquid funk era.

Junglist Kiki

This is really good.  Nice one S.P.Y.!  I  get worried when I see remixes of such epic classics. The Dj Zinc one is so iconic, I wouldn’t want anyone spoiling it.  I still can’t believe that track came out in 1996.  I’m such an old raver.  LOL.  But man S.P.Y.  killed this remix.  Love it.  😍😍😍

Waterworks Central

So that’s all she wrote!  

Exams are over.  Nothing more to grade.  I’m still not really sure what exactly the kids do til next Wednesday when school officially finishes.  All  I know is it has nothing to do with me.  I’ll just be sitting in my aforementioned hot ass office, waiting for August 3rd when I blow this popsicle stand.  

I said goodbye to my students and it was waterworks central.  smh.  I’m such a crybaby.  LOL.  I still have a farewell English department dinner and have to give a speech at the closing ceremony next week.  I’ll be too busy memorising my Japanese to actually cry then. 

Currently listening to all the drum n bass.  😂  I’m just going through my Itunes  having a solo dnb party as I clean out my desk and throw away all the rubbish I’ve accumulated over the past two years.

Oldie but goodie. 💕💕💕

Exam Inferno

I just have to make it through this week of grading exams and then it’ll be just me sitting in a hot ass office for the 4 weeks until I leave.  I don’t have any nenkyu left so there’s no last minute summer holiday and I’m okay with that.   The remaining days I had left, I’m using to come home a little bit earlier.  

I think i’m going to have to make friends with some of the teachers in the air conditioned offices.  “I know it’s been 2 years and I haven’t spoken a word to you, but can I sit in here and watch Netflix so I don’t  collapse from the heat?”  😛

My supervisor was laughing at me yesterday because my fan is pretty much touching my face.  It’s hot af in my office.

I have 200 exams to grade today, so I’m making an epic playlist to zone out to.  It’s the first years, so there’s no essay, and they will be easy to grade, but I might die from the repetition.

Hawaiian Tropics

When I lived in Minneapolis, there was this girl I used to rave with sometimes that we called Hawaiian Tropics.  It wasn’t a diss, she was actually trying her damnedest to become Miss Hawaiian Tropics.  I had never heard of this competition until I met her. She was always really orange.

Currently, I’m pretending I’m on a beach listening to dnb and drinking margaritas.  Really it’s 8 am, it’s rainy season and muggy as hell and I’m sitting in my office with a fan blowing in my face.

There is a bright spot though, I just transferred some old mixes from an external hard drive that I forgot I had brought with me to Japan, to my laptop and have been listening to some oldies but goodies.  Of course I find the hard drive while I’m going through my things to pack up shit to move back.

Lets be honest though, this is not really that different from every other day where I spend a majority of my time listening to dnb from 15 odd years ago.  This time around though, I have an even bigger library of mixes to choose from. 😉

This track is 14 years old.  Am I really that old?  LOL

Sardines

I have eaten a lot of sardines this year.  I live next to Kujukuri, which is famous for its sardines, and have eaten them fresh many times. おいしいですね。

The only reason I’m talking about sardines is because I’m currently listening to the Ed Rush & Optical track.

I only teach one lesson on Wednesdays, so I spend the rest of the day lesson planning.  Currently got a pretty awesome Ed Rush & Optical soundtrack going. ❤
