Right then...

Well, I thought I might as well get a journal.  This is my first time ever flying out outside of Australia, besides New Zealand, but I'm not entirely sure if that counts.  I've been in New York for almost eight months now and can honestly say that the winters here are horrific.  I'm so glad that spring is finally here.  These have been, quite

Hello there Mr.Kelly. Catherine has told me about you, so I thought I might drop by.. I hope you don't mind me writing to you here. I'm Mina Raksha, a friend of Catherine's...

I hear you are in New York right now, so I thought perhaps I could offer to meet with you. If you are interested, of course...

So, you are a model? That must be interesting work. I cannot foresee myself ever letting so many people stare at me... It sounds horrifying to me as a matter of fact..

Anyways.. Drop me a line sometime, if you wish. It's always nice to meet more friends here in New York. :)

Hey Mina.

No, I don't mind it in the least. It's nice to meet new people so far from home, even if it is on the Internet. I'd definitely like to meet up some time. I work at a local coffee shop, if you like coffee at all. Or I hear there's some good movies on?

And modeling isn't so bad. The students I work with are really nice and some even buy me coffee or bring me food while I'm working. The money makes the hassles worthwhile though. I make about forty dollars an hour working, pretty much four times what I make at the barista. I guess it all depends on the person though.

When are you free next? I think I have Thursday night off from work and classes if you would like to get together then.

That's great! I would very much like to meet you as well. Coffee or a movie would be great... Perhaps both even?

I am pleased to hear that the other students are kind to you at least. It must make your job a lot better. :)

I apologize for not writing back sooner. I just finished my last exam, so I am free anytime you are. If you'd like, I'm free today... Is there somewhere we could perhaps meet?

Sorry for not replying for so long Mina. My email didn't tell me I had a comment. That or I accidentally deleted it, I'm not overly sure. At least you had a good reason.

And sure, whichever you like. I can get us discounts on drinks at work, then we can go see a movie? We also have tea there. They make a pretty good Chai as long as Marisa isn't working. Last time she forgot to even put the Chai into the mix to steam.

Let me know when you can go out so I can book the day off work. Oh, and if you're not in the mood for a movie I heard they just opened a new restaurant down the street. They say it's pretty good.

Let me know.

Kelly
