When I
received a long letter from you I was very surprised but
was also delighted to read it. Thanks again. Let me
first talk about the matter from Saturday (of last
week).
With respect to my
friend, she had an appointment so she would not have
come any way. Therefore, please do not worry. If I
meet her in the future, I will try to introduce her to
you. She is a very
nice girl. I will definitely like to
introduce
her to you. Of course it will depend if you and she
can coordinate their schedules. If that were possible
then let us get together and have a pleasant time. By
the way, if you would like to know her name, it is "Hidemi".
Thanks again for
motivating me to
work hard at English. For about 4 months I have not
spoken any English at all. I sometimes try to
read a book or a newspaper but have difficulty in
reading simple sentences in many cases.
I often think of a
lot of things and that makes my head hurt sometimes.
When I first came here, I almost forgot everything about
my past. Since I did not have any one around me
with whom I could really share, I think even forgot to
think about myself. If I do not meet you or you do not
receive this email, I think I will just wait for the day
that I have to
go back to Japan. I cannot believe what is
happening to me. I am not particularly
happy
with my life. And I have to take some decisions
about myself. If I do nothing and just brood, nothing
will change, don't you think?
I fully understand
your warm feelings and kindness towards me. Thanks
so very much and I hold these feelings very dear to
myself. I would very much like to learn better English
and encourage you to
study Japanese so that we can both learn each
other's language - that will be so wonderful!
Next time if I am
depressed I will motivate myself by telling myself
that "I have to work hard so that I can speak to Colvin
in English."
To make me think
about all these things, thanks Colvin. When I want to
make up my mind and need your advice I will like to
contact you. And when I have time I will also write to
you.” |
