Dear Gabby,
Hello from New York! I'm in medical school at last! I'm
very busy, but I'm also very happy!
My classes started last month, and I've already made some
new friends. Hideki, from Japan, is studying to be a
banker. He studies hard, but he loves shopping, too. Well,
New York is great for shopping, as you know. My friend
Sara is from New York. She goes to drama school and
works at a restaurant at night. Her sister Lori lives with
her and goes to high school here. She wants to be an
architect. And I have two friends from Chicago—Alan and
Meredith. Alan is studying to be a journalist, and
Meredith goes to art school.
Tonight we're all going to Sara's restaurant. There is a
special promotion and we can have a full meal for a fixed
price. Nothing like having friends in the right places—
especially when you are a student in New York!
Love,
Alicia
