here is an e-mail I sent out to some people but i know some have live journal so go ahead and read this ok! i'm gonna post public since some of you are not on my friends list. Here you go!
Band has meant alot to me, but one thing it has meant to me is to meet new friends and get to know the freshmen more better every year. The chaperones really mean alot to me to know that they are there for you if something happens to you, and they care so much about us. I really appreiaciate them be their for us and to know they will always be there for us in need of something serious happening makes me 100% safer. I have had so much fun getting to know the band directors for 4 years and getting to know them better throughout the years. Band means the world to me, I go practice every time I have so I can improve, it has taught me to never give up. I remember when my brother steven who graduated this year in May was in band, and he quit after that and i loved watching the color guard dance, and getting to know each and every one of them as the years went by, getting to know all the people in band. I'm so proud of my freshmen flutes, they amaze me at the rate they work and never give up they always keep trying harder. I'm really proud of my freshmen flutes. I love you and when I leave I will miss you alot.
This is kind of a senior will and what I would have written to many others but I did not have enough room so i'm sending this to people whom I left off or people I did write to but did not get to finish what I wanted to write due to time.
