| hi. this is regarding nyssma. there are 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9- 9 people. well thatz the amount that showed up the other day. so i'd like to wish good luck to all of them. and from wut i heard they sounded great. just remember, if you mess up, dont make a big deal about it. pretend it never happened. so GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| wow. |
|
|
| o my gosh. band this year was great. it went by so fast. effort really does pay off. i mean, when we first got Red White & Blue, it looked impossible to play. but it happened to be one of our easiest songs. and mr. Ferguson, you've been an awesome band teacher. You made band so much fun and on days 2 and 6, i actually couldn't wait for band and i luved waking up early. but itz so sad that the 6th graders wont be seeing you again.(there's only 20 dayz of school left)but if some of us join marching band next yr, we'll see you again and get to hear all ur bad jokes(lol). but i wanna thank you for an awesome "band season." I also wanna thank all the people who practiced a lot to make their parts perfect. especially the saxophone soloists. they worked so hard in the last couple of days before the concert to make their part perfect. and to the people who didnt practice, i hoped you learned ur lesson!! lol. so, i guess this is it. our last year of elementary band. now we have to move on and keep up our "great musical talent".(for eco. club people, that should seem familiar, u know, the musician part.) well, i have to go. again, thank u so so so so so so so so so so so so much. |
