I was thinking of the melody going E to F# as some kind of pivot then the singer singing F# a lotttt and somehow pivot circle of fifth of some sort (A - E - B)

(Again I’m the MT dumb dumb in my household)

the process went like this:
- me right before modulation: and now we get modulation”
- G, surprised pikachu: really? I didn’t hear it?
- me, second guessing bc she’s the one w MT degree: yeah, it’s whole step up I think but im gonna google
- google: useless
- wiki: better
- issue resolved (PAC)

yeah I told G we know it’s the 90s/00s because of the obligatory modulation

(I think we got confused by the F#m-D-A progression)

I had to read the open MT textbook bc I’m a dumbass but I 100% on modulation now thank u garrett
November 13, 2025 at 3:33 AM
hold on, i was right--it does modulate whole step up using E to F# pivot whatever.

our Sammy girl has this habit as well and we countered it by putting the water bowls inside ikea plastic baskets. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

on that note, maybe that would be a funny joke to students: keep ur vid assignments concise so dr s doesnt have to plank for longer than a minute at a time

I’m getting very close to bringing my foldable cushy mat (like one uses to practice gymnastic) to my office so I can keep myself awake by planking and grading
