Hi Saki!
I'm sorry I didn't write you back sooner. I have been
very busy moving to New York City, finding a job, and
finding a place to live. I am already in New York and
have a job. I am still working on finding a permanent
place to live. New York is good and I think you would
be surprised by the number of Asians here. People
hear speak so many languages - Chinese, Korean,
Polish, Spanish, Russian, French - and not just
English. Hearing Chinese makes me think of China but
I am not used to their accents as much. (Most Chinese
hear speak Cantonese or are from Fujian Province.
They don't have the Northeastern accent). In New
York, the local Chinese are well-known for the
Chinatown Bus - a transportation system that lets New
Yorkers travel to Boston, Philadelphia, and DC for a
very cheap price.
Don't worry about the song too much - though I really
hope that you do complete it so Drew and I can hear
it! Good luck with your programs and I'll get in
touch with you soon.
Best,
Nancy

Dear Nancy,
I am glad to hear from you again !
Oh, a busy summer ! I have always been working from 8:00 am to 10:00 pm these days.
It was really a hard time but I learned much.
I don't know how many programs are coming to me.
Actually I am interested in language instead of programs.
With reference to what you have mentioned in your letter, I am kind of envy your life style.
You can travel from one place to another, you can know the world by personally on the scene.
However, I can only sit in the room and face the monitor, run on the internet cable.
Sometimes, I feel I have everything in my brain but nothing in my hand.
I believe I can achieve something if I can get through everything now at hand, but the result may be not my original intention.
Oh, I have too many thoughts now, I am puzzled, tired, homesick, CRYING......
Take a latest look at the old pictures,
I find I was too young those days.
I can't frozen my hot tears in eyes,
I can only sing a song for the friends far away.
Seasons in the sun were all gone ?
Maybe I can find it if I run to the direction which they have gone in.
HO~~~
I say COME ON to myself and YOU.
LIFE IS LIKE THIS !!!
WORK HARD AND TAKE CARE AND FIND HAPPINESS !!!
BEST WISHES !!!
Yours sincerely,
Sakawinki Shoner
