Gurl rhymes with hurl.
(I hope Raymond doesn't cum to your birthday party...eeeyyyuuuuuu...)
I think Tania (I'm guessing) needs to pay more attention in language arts class and hook up with Andrea at lunch.
I know the feeling. I had bad Grade in languag artz 2.
OMG why wuld Raymond only want 2 b friendz? I thot he texted u last week and said he luv you right b4 he crashed into that ilegal alien? W.T.F GURL? NEWAYZ stop having bad grade and tell raymond 2 cum 2 my bday party..he will Dont u think.
BFF4LYFE g2g.
kinda EZ 2 b-leve this gurl gots a bad grade
So is "Dutcher" slang for Pennsylvania Dutch country?
First loves are always storybook romances.
Of course, sometimes they're more like the story line of an afternoon soap opera: She likes Raymond too. Raymond just wants to be friends. Tania wants more. She thinks that he thinks that she said that Andrea said that she thought she heard that . . . . ah, young love. I'm sure glad I'm past that age.
Reading this gave me a headache.
To "not just another"...There's a "Dutcher" Lab at Washington University School of Medicine in the Genetics Dept. Maybe she's got the "skillz" and has an internship there?
It's Tonio Raymond. (as in Antonio- which is why txting notegurrl refers to him as a he.)
Wow- reading this just sucked away prolly like, a zillion brane cells.
oh man, the curves on the letters are torture for me. but to a young girl I suppose it looks as fancy as a queens tampon.. IDK.. I give up
.. I wanted a soy sore?
I bet the note writer's name ends with an I (with a bubble dot.)
@ should have slept in: It actually says "I wanted 2 say sure".
Reading this note was painful. It scares me that people write like this on a regular basis, and that they think it is ok.
y is tania haf bad grades
du u think
"cuz I kinda have bad grocle"? I agree with Freonz.
*searches in purse for pain relief*
English: Ur doin it rong.
So...U is in Language Artz? Are you sure?
Kinda have bad grade? Wut a suprize!
Geez, my own mother never would have let me write dreck like this, let alone my teacher!
After the mandatory Tylenol and 1 hour cooling-off period, I still don't care about tonia (the note writer) or whether raymond likes *Andrea.
What I want to know about is how the swim meet went. That's got to be much more interesting than reading a transcript of a teenage texter's social life.
Wow - I feel bad for her her grades must be really bad... http://www.dutcherfh.com/
Grammar and writing like this literally makes me wanna throw a book at this child..maybe some of the smart will stick.
Her cellphone should be impounded until she proves she can write a coherent, correctly-spelled sentence with all words in place.
Oh god- I don't know which is worse- the actual content of the note or the horrendous handwriting. I hate everything about this find, especially the way ANDREA is written at the top.
Blech.
Ugh. I have a headache, too.
As far as being an example of the youth of today, this had better be the exception, not the norm.
Tania couldn't stop thinking about Raymond, even in language arts when the teacher was talking about how the word "know" was spelled. She didn't hear, so she decided to write a note to Andrea about Raymond. Destiny had been talking with Tania, and Tania told her she liked Raymond. "he said he just wants to be friends," Destiny told her, but Tania didn't believe it. She figured Destiny just liked Raymond and was trying to prevent their love. Andrea's birthday party was soon, and she'd invited Raymond in the hopes that he would come and see Tania before she had to go back to Dutcher Middle School because of her bad grades. Ninth grade just wasn't for her—eighth might be easier. Especially language arts.

Most of us aren't like that, but if you're in a pretty ghetto neighborhood you might see a lot of stuff like this.
OKAY! This all makes sense to me now, thanks to Muse...
Honestly, I had read this like eighty times trying to figure out wtf "2 Dutcher (mabe"
meant. Kudos to the note-writer for acknowledging at least one proper noun?
Also: agreeing with The Youth of Today- there are smart kids out there. A lot of them. Just um... none that write notes like this to each other,leaving them to be Found.
does anyone else hear Miss Frizzle when they read librarian's comments?
Speaking as a teacher, this note is somewhat encouraging that not EVERY student is texting during class. Tonia is probably always texting, but it looks as if her language artz teacher has done a good job on stopping the texting. Perhaps her cell phone was taken? For some reason, while texting and note writing are both bad behaviors during school, note writing seems not so bad when compared to texting. Does anyone else feel that way?
D'accord.
I weep for the future of America.
My BFF would choke me if I wrote her a letter like this.
Tonia's cell is waiting for her at Casey's but Raymond is gonna make her let him fill her tires and change his oil before she can get it back...according to the Bazz, anyway.
@ Orinoco..."the Bazz", eh? Does that give me "street cred"?
Dutcher Middle School is located in Turlock, CA, my hometown.
I weep for the future.
@ Baby Basil: who or what is "the Bazz"? It sounds like some legendary drunken, violence-prone British "footballer" from the 1970s who, alas, died before his time from an accidental whore overdose. I imagine they'd try in vain to make Russell Crowe look younger for the role nowadays. A younger Brendan Gleeson would've been perfect.
