guitar lessons

i arrived at kim's (guitar student) place at 3:30pm this afternoon for his lesson. kim was sitting in his studio/playroom with his stuffed teddy [sounds ready to go]. i sent him to get his guitar and an appropriate chair to sit on [technique]. first we looked at the practise i had set him for the last week. i played the exercises really well. shame about kim. needless to say, a good conversation happened at the end of the lesson with his dad. something along the lines of, "a minimum of 15 minutes a day will allow kim to a). actually improve, and b). start to enjoy playing." these things seem obvious to me but, hey, i guess it's not to everyone. we'll see how much practise takes place over the next week. my next student, [cindy] on saturday, is an adult. i wonder how that will go?
i thought that the policeperson who was fragged because he was moonlighting as a hooker was from naenae! now the kiwi herald reckons he's from moenui [big sleep].
