prom was friday :-D i had a great time. CONGRATS TO ERIN and JERRY and everyone else on the prom court!

uhh ya so i thought i had to have a letter to a teacher that inspired us for NHS to turn in. of course being myself i waited till the last minute to do. not even kidding. i decided to put it off till this morning so i woke up and started working on it around 6:36am. i ended at 7:03 :P i was going to write it to ms strazzere seeing as tho she introduced me to "women in science and engineering". i figured a little ways through that i couldnt make up more facts about it and stuff so i decided to write one to ms mette. i hesitated at first seeing as i will have her next year and it would be like sucking up but i made a fairly nice letter(i thought it sucked compared to taryns)i put it on my usb stick thinger and printed it out in physics. taryn read it and said it was reallly good...i didn't really believe her seeing as i bulled it :P

later i showed kevin martin the letter and he ALSO said it was good. i was SHOCKED lol soo i thought id let you read it too:

Dear Ms. Mette,

I wanted to let you know that you are one of the most inspirational teachers in the Wilmington public school system. It is amazing that you have stayed here for more than 30 years teaching music to thousands of students who love music as much as you do. The band program has come a long way since you began teaching. You let us know that the band isn’t just a group of kids playing music; it is a group of musicians who have pride, give their best effort, and commitment.
You are one of the only teachers who treat their students as equal adults. With you doing that it has made me a more mature person. I am able to withstand most peer pressure because I learned it earlier than most of my peers who did not go through the band at some point of their schooling. I do not want to embarrass myself doing something idiotic because I do not want to risk the band’s reputation with my actions either.
You are an amazing teacher, Ms. Mette. If you were not then the alumni would not keep coming back to band camp or coming up to you during the Thanksgiving football game to just say “hi.” You have helped me strive toward having pride in what I do and to doing the best to my ability. As I look into colleges I want to attend after I graduate, I try to make sure they have some kind of a music program for me to participate in because you have made me love the music I play. I just wanted to thank you for being a wonderful teacher and inspiring me throughout the six years you have taught me music.

Thank you,

Monica Folk

ALL BY MYSELF TOO :D
