 * I picked the xylophone because I like percussion instuments and the high pitch sound it makes.**

nearest location to view your object and how to get there


 * The closest location were you could go to use a xylophone would be down stairs in the music room. All you do to get there is go down to the first floor and go to the west side of the building until you get to a slanted hallway. Walk past the candy and pop machines and it is in the first room on the left.**
