Dear current principal of our local high school, I am not a student there anymore, but I still think it's ridiculous that you decided to take over the choir room to hold your stupid cult meetings. It's bad enough you fired the choir teacher and the poor band teacher has to now teach 6th through 12th grade band AND choir. As a former band student, I know personally that there CLEARLY isn't enough time between classes for band to clear their equipment out and for choir to move theirs in. Once again proving just how idiotic our school is.
It's definitely NOT an accomplishment to graduate from our high school.
-End

Oh! I didn't know we could do outside of band yet band related things! I would have done this the first time I posted here!
Dear School District,
I don't know what kind of crack you are smoking, but how long will it take for you to realize that two buses is not enough. I know we have budget cuts, but you are codradicting yourselves. Three people to a seat is a safety violation, and you know as well as we do that the two buses you insist on us using is just too small. Not to mention we band kids have hat boxes, soemtimes uniforms, and for someof us instruments. It is hard enough fitting all that two to a seat, or one to a seat. Last year, the band got two buses on its own, and we just barely fit. We are bigger this year. And now, you are sticking the cheerleaders with us. Come on! Not only are they loud and anoying, when the band is supposed to be silent, but they try to take one to a seat. It won't work that way. They don't have nearly as much crap as we do and yet they take up more room then us, and they are 30 when we are 80. No. Seriously. After the game, we are hot, sweaty, tired, and grumpy. We do not appreciate booty dancing cheerleaders in our faces the whole busride home. You don't have to give them a full sized bus. Maybe a short bus. It just won't work sharing with them. We have cooperated with you for two games now. We already almost had BD fireworks before the first game when one bus driver wouldn't let us on until the other bus was full. And then the year before that you only sent us one bus for state. We had to wait for the second bus, and would have had a shorter lunch and bathroom break were the traffic not as good as it turned out being. I'm warning you. If it isn't the BD that strangles you, you will have 80 instruments up you patooties if you try soemthing funny at our first festival.

Okay, I would seriously send that were it not for the threat partXD I don't think that would bode well with the school board

Since there seems to be a dear school district kick...
Dear school district,
How dare you cut our funding? We now cannot attend away games, Charlottesville, and probably can barely go to...wherever we're going in its place.
YOU HAVE DEPRIVED US OF OUR FAVOURITE FESTIVAL. We had a record of being the only school who's been going there since we opened. Thanks to you we've lost it. And Harris Teeter. crying
Sad-face,
Puff

Dear Mrs. Milne,
I totally respect you're authority as band director but i wish you would let me play what instaument i want to and not the one you want me to. I want to play saxophone but you want me to play tuba, which is fun for a while but not the whole time im in high school. My plan was to play sax when i was a freshmen, Tuba as a sophmore, Try out 4 drumline as a junior and try for drum major as a senior. You wont give me a fair shot at drum major or drumline? Well i'll just f***** move to another school district then!! sincerely, you're sophmore souzaphone

Dear Ben,
You are ridiculous. I hate that we can't talk anymore.
...which is why I'm going to talk to you about probably the most awkward subject that's causing the problem. Regardless of the outcome, I'm going to stay friends with you. I don't care if you're awkward/weirded out. I don't want to lose you as a friend just because I like you. It doesn't make any sense.
If all goes according to plan, we'll be having this similar discussion IRL sometime this week. Can't wait. Been trying to talk to you for the past TWO weeks but that hasn't happened wtf :l
-Me
P.S.: I miss when you'd hit me with things or pick me up or whatever...I don't really know why, it was annoying as all hell. xD Is the only reason you stopped because you found out?

Dear Jessica,
Whats your problem? Why are you complaining about how bad the grade 9s are, when were were worse/as bad last year? Just because you take private lessons, and are, consequently very good, doesn't mean you can bluntly say that everyone but you sucks. I mean, saying that the alto sax section needs a good player because its full of suck? That's just mean, why don't you take care of your section before you start insulting mine? And for your information, I was the one who Mrs. Woods said was the best one to be in senior band, but then Amanda had to work Thursday nights, so she got moved to senior band. With this evident, it is obvious one would believe that I'm better. But you just can't seem to understand that. For crying out loud, last year Matt had to ask me how to play high E, and then later, you say that he's the best in the band. Well you may not know this, but I can play altissimo notes, that's right, over an octave ABOVE that high E Matt couldn't play. Also, I'm like the only alto in the school that can play a low Bb without having to play Æ’Æ’Æ’. Why don't you go learn about the saxophone before you go making stupid comments about stuff you know little about.
-(my name)
Yes, I'm on the verge of screaming that in her face. And the last line, "Stupid comments about stuff you know nothing about." I got that from my grade 7 teacher, she yelled it at me. xP but it was about something in Science. (It was my opinion on a controversial theory)

Dear ____.
To be honest, I'm glad we have tomorrow off. You're creeping me out. I didn't know you liked me. Asking me to Homecoming is just...awkward. Especially since I have a huge crush on your best friend. Not that you'll ever know that, but...yeah. Doesn't help that YOU'RE IN MY SECTION and I have to see you every day for the next month. Ugh.
Also: Even if I didn't like Ben, I wouldn't go with you. You're just really--really--not my type. /excuse except it's true
-Me

Dear District,
Why are you all such freaking idiots? You have royally ******** up any chances of County Choir kids getting to rehearsals. If we can't drive ourselves, our parents can't drive us, and our teacher's can't get vans to drive us, how in the hell are we supposed to get to rehearsal? You are all so freaking stupid that the only way that we can get to and from rehearsal is by walking to and from manteca high, which is a dangerous part of town. if you weren't idiots we'd all be fine. in addition, why are you taking our bus away from us on the one day us choir kids actually ask for it? You do realize that if we miss a county rehearsal we're kicked out, but honestly, taking our bus away make a lot of us kids unable to get to the college in stockton from Manteca. Why are you such idiots?
Fix it, and the passing around of teachers, or there will be a student and teacher run rebellion. And I might well bring pitchforks and torches.
-Kellani

Dear Clarinet and Flute Section,
Help the pit after practice! That means not only dragging things in, but also taking the equipment off the carts and putting it back in the band room. Even when Shelby yells "Help the pit!" only a few of you actually help take stuff in and then you all leave, leaving Les, Heather, and I here 15-20 min. after practice is over. Yes, I know you guys have lives and things you have to do. But in case you haven't noticed, so do I. And my mom doesn't appreciate being the last one out of the parking lot.
fffffff-, Kelsey
