From Karen Diep '08

Dear Ben Gibbard,

I am a junior attending rosemead high school. i am so excited for this year's prom, especially because ive been able to help out the awesome junior class associated body student government cabinet in making our prom a reality! we have been working really hard practically every day of the week since last year to raise as much money as we can to make prom more affordable for the students attending RHS. our class cabinet has always been known for making our school events some of the greatest and most memorable. were asking you to play at our prom so we can achieve our biggest goal this year: setting up prom for our wondeful seniors! all of our hard work and dedication has really created and already exciting prom but this would be the greatest final touch in PROM HISTORY! we hope that you will stop by and if you could just show up or maybe even play one song it would make this year's prom absolutely amazing! i couldnt think of anything better for our prom. we made our theme based on the song title, "Such Great Heights." as you can see, it originated from the song your band made famous! We used some of the lyrics to help us come up with ideas for entertainment and decoration. We are abosolutely in love with the Postal Service and Death Cab For Cutie. I am sure everyone at our school feels the same way. i know it would just be the best night of my life if you played our prom Mr. Gibbard! so please dont let us down because we are trying really hard!!!

- Sincerely
Karen Diep
