Dear Tony
I m sitting in the health clinic waiting to see the doctor. I wish it weren t so crowded! I ve
been here since 7:00 and there are still fifteen people in line in front of me. I have an eye
infection because of the smog. The sky is always gray and everyone in the family is sick ! very
depressing!
Did I tell you I m going to a new school? I like it but I wish it very closer. It takes me more
than an hour on the bus in the mornings. And the traffic is alyas bad. If only I could fly!
By the way, my bicycle was stolen last week . I only left outside for ten minutes! I wish I had
enought money for a new one!Mom says it s getting very dangerous here and she wants to
move, but Dad says he wouldn t get a job out of the city.
Well, I don t want to move ! I want to be close to my friends. And there is always lots to do . I
went to a rock concert last Saturday with Peter and Sarah. It was great. We re going to the
theater tonight and to the soccer game on Sunday
Will I see you soon ? I wish you lived closer!
Please give my love to Uncle Bill and Aunty Marge and to all my little cousins
Love , Jenny
