Hi Stephanie!
e
How have you been? What have you done in the past year7 Sorry i haven't written in a
long time. Its been a crazy year.
Ive been pretty busy. I was bored with my job, and my life was going nowhere. I had no
real career and no boyfriend! I knew I needed to make some changes.
First, I found a new job. I now work for a travel agency. I love it, but its a lot more
stressful than my old job. I just got a raise, though.
Also, I told my friend Jar kie that I wanted to go out, so last fall she and I went out more.
Then last December she arranged a date between Patrick and me. Patrick is a student,
and he hopes to graduate in the summer. Guess what? We're engaged now! Surprised?
Patrick and I plan to get married next year. Then we hope to travel around Mexico for
our honeymoon. We're very happy!
Looking forward to hearing all your news.
