Jason Robert Taylor: May 2008
http://jasonrtaylor.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Life in Japan as a composer and occassional gaijin. Wednesday, May 7, 2008. Oriental Dance in Shinjuku. I went to Tokyo this weekend with Luka and his grandmother. On Sunday we spent the night in Sakura a town near the coast in Chiba. There I finally met Mari's cousin, he was the only member of her family that I hadn't yet met. He's a Latin Ballroom dance teacher- it was fun to hear him talk about Mari when they were kids. He hasn't seen her for about 15 years. Jason R. Taylor. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Life in Japan as a composer and occassional gaijin. Tuesday, June 3, 2008. Getting Here version 1.1. Yoshio Nomura and I made a rough recording over the weekend of my piece for two guitars "Getting Here." The mic I used doesn't seem to be the best for classical guitars so please bear with it. We're planning on recording it a few more times until we get it right so just consider this to be version 1.1.Here are the links. I Early Morning Departure. Here are the program notes. Jason R.

The Ritchie Memoirs.: September 2007
http://ritchiememoirs.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
My name is Ritchie. I teach in Japan. These are the Ritchie Memoirs. Monday, 3 September 2007. After i got back to Japan i went to an Onsen in Gero which was very relaxing. And i went rafting somewhere in Gifu. The weather that day was perfect but the actual rafting wasnt as good as last time. Afterwards we had a bbq and consumed shit loads of beer whilst having a little swim in the river. It was great. Even though i left my old rebooks there. Man i forgot how much i hate cup noodle.

My name is Ritchie. I teach in Japan. These are the Ritchie Memoirs. Friday, 23 May 2008. Wow, I completely forgot about this thing. The baton twirling music has started again. It may be a remix CD though. Regardless it's still shit. We started our interview tests the other day. It went ok. The crap students did crap and good ones did good. I mean, well. The dvd for this semester is Edward Scissors hand. I remember watching that movie back when it was a new release video! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

http://ritchiememoirs.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
My name is Ritchie. I teach in Japan. These are the Ritchie Memoirs. Thursday, 10 June 2010. Completely forgot about this thing. Again. Much has happened since the last post. One of the native teachers went back to Australia with his family and in his place we were blessed with a Canadian. Let's refer to him as Bob. Well anyways he worked for us for a year and then went home to become a firefighter, or something. This April we got another new teacher from Canada, lets call her Clara.
