Subject: You came early today!!!!

Dear,

I am a bit late, I know. Because the match didn't start at the expected time. We had to wait there for some time. Guess what? We won!!!! It was a nail-biting finish, so tensed, but at last, we managed to win convincingly. We all are very happy because at one stage victory seemed almost impossible. Still, we snatched victory from the jaws of defeat!!!

I have thought of your plan in the US. Only now I understood you don't want to for a job at all. Good! But be prepared. Because if at some time you may want it.

You want to read some famous books and become a writer. That is fantastic, really!!! But first, you have to improve your English. Then you can read any number of books from any language (translations). Maybe you can start by translating some classics in your language also. I know translation is a boring start job. But to get a breakthrough it may be good. Anyway, you must improve your English. TOEFL will help it. But put more effort. Try reading English books.

And I don't know whether there are any schools in your language in the US. If yes, you can teach children. (You like that, right?) For that also, you have to get some formal training in your language. Teaching is the best way to keep in touch with the language, you know. So that may even help you in writing.

Studying 3D graphics is of course good. But anyway that is not the immediate plan, right??

Just send me your ideas. I have to think about this more. I have more things to write, but it will be late when you receive the mail. So I am sending it now...

Love

Kamal
