An Open Letter of Suggestions

Dear person who sits next to me in my mass media class,
I have a couple of suggestions on how we can make this semester as pleasurable as possible. Please take the following into consideration:
1. Please try to not breathe so loudly. You sound like you are on your death bed and/or a monster.
2. Please stop making excuses as to why you can't look up the notes on your own computer on your own time. It's very aggravating that you continually ask me to send you additional notes or ask to finish copying notes from previous lectures.
3. Please stop leaning over me into my personal space to copy down the notes I've taken.
4. Please stop copying notes that I take beyond the notes that we are given. I like to take as much of what the teacher says in as possible and if you weren't paying attention, that's not exactly my problem.
5. Please stop asking me to go to the next slide as I follow the ppt presentation on my laptop. Either learn to sum up what the notes actually say or bring a laptop and type the notes.
6. Please stop using your phone in class. It's very hard to concentrate when there is a beaming light on my left hand side.
All in all, you are a huge distraction and I wish I could just sit somewhere else. But apparently we have developed a "friendship" suggested by the fact that you continue to sit next to me. We need to find some solutions to make this semester a little more enjoyable.

Sincerely,
You're overly annoyed seat neighbor
