I see many students that love their instruments dearly (including
myself), but I also see many students that don't properly take care of
their instruments. Some of them just don't care. Sure, we have all had
bad things that have happened to our beloved instruments. For example, I
once left my plastic Bundy sitting on the computer desk while I took a
break from playing. My dog somehow took the mouthpiece off and used it
as a chew toy. From that moment on, I never left my clarinet out where
my dog could get it. I learned my lesson, and I am glad that it was just
the mouthpiece!

P.S.- My Bundy and my R-13 still need names. I am open to suggestions.
