Chinese Pen Pal Farewell

Dear Chinese pen pals,

I haven't heard back from you in awhile, and I'm not sure why that is. I'm sure you're doing fine, though, and keeping up with your studies. I've been keeping pretty busy with prom, which is a big dance event that only seniors attend at our school, and doing finals within my classes before graduation, which is this Friday. It seems like it's been four long years and four short ones at the same time, but it's been four years nonetheless, and I'm anxious about my first few years as an adult fledgling in the world. Since graduation is this Friday, I'm afraid to say that I'll be moving on from this class and onto another. It's been one of my favorite classes, and one that I'm glad that I have as one of the final ones in my senior year. I'm not sure what I'll be doing this summer, but probably just working and preparing for college. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll have time to keep up correspondence with you anymore. It's a great displeasure to say this, but I don't think you've had much time either, so the feelings may be mutual. It was nice to make your acquaintance, but I think it's time we went our separate ways. I wish you a happy summer and more success with your studies!

Sincerely,
Emily Crocker
