Curriculum Kiki

Not to bore you with my work gripes, but I’m designing this curriculum for this course and man is it kicking my behind. Creating materials is extremely time consuming.

I’m listening to Missing & Trex and making worksheets.

I love starting my mornings with dnb. I know many people think I’m crazy to start my a.m. listening to 170 bpms, but I’m such a fan of getting the day cracking with some deep bass, drums and a liquidy vocal.

Good vibes. πŸ₯°

Summer Session Kiki

Been in Chicago and Wisconsin for the last 3 weeks. It was a really great trip. Got to spend some quality time with my besties and my family and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Had a fab 4th and I’m back in LA now. Summer session begins today. No rest for the wicked and all that. πŸ˜‰

Listening to some tunes and lesson planning. It’s my first time hearing this Cyantific tune. Def a vibe. 😍

Expected Kiki

Surprise surprise. I’m leaving tomorrow at crack ass o’clock and haven’t packed a lick of anything. I have to teach my evening classes in 30 minutes, but fortunately it’s quiz day so I guess I’ll just pack while they are doing that? My procrastination is so expected at this point. Par for the course, innit?

Excited to see my Chicago lovelies and then on to hang with the fam after that.

I’m finishing up my quizzes and listening to some Nu:Tone.

Kiki vs The Remix

Sometimes I have irrational anger towards bad remixes. πŸ˜‚ I didn’t make it so there’s no reason to get so angry. SMH.

I just feel like if you are going to take the time to remix something, do it well! Do the original justice while also giving us a new take.

Anyway, SATL bringing the goods on this refix sparked joy on the elliptical this morning.

Playlist Kiki

I’m always trying to make the perfect playlist. I make so many and never listen to them. I finally listened to one on the drive down to see my family. I was like “This is so good!” Like I didn’t spend hours putting it together. πŸ˜‚

Love this banger:

Mixtape Kiki

It’s 7am and I’m writing the 3 tests for today that I’ve put off all week.

Procrastination is a crap trait. I think at this point, it’ll just be with me for the rest of my life. πŸ™ƒ

I didn’t really listen to this when it came out, but I was listening to Loz & Myras’s show this week and Myras played a couple of tunes from it. I’m totally feeling it.

Good vibes. πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

Good Day Kiki

I’m trying my best to be in charge of setting the tone for my day. I pick a song that puts me in a good mood and it helps me begin my day on a good note.

I’m such a Leo Wood fan. Her vocals are always on point. I do love a good Phaction tune too. This one came out at the end of February. 🧑

Ups & Downs Kiki

I can’t believe it’s been 5 months since my dad passed. Some of the months have been bearable, some unimaginably unbearable.

I’m just coming out of a depression room funk. You know those ones where if you look around your room it 100% reflects your state of mind.

Anyway, it’s Saturday. I’m cleaning, doing laundry and listening to Waeys. I’m a new Waeys fan. Had no clue who he was before, but now I definitely do. I dig his style. Starting my morning off with this tune below. Loving the Duskee vocal too. 🀩
