Hey, Jade,

Beyond lovely to hear from you, especially after a long silence plus a kind-of-serious website problem that is still kind of ongoing. Believe me, there is no aggravation quite like it!

FULL RIDE?!? I'm not even surprised. And I hear it's a really good school. You must be almost nuts just thinking about it.

Do you hear that, Kormaniacs? Our Jade is making her mark! I'm REALLY proud to hear about it!

Keep us all posted! On your book too! ---Gord---

Hey! Yes, it's been a long time! Sorry about that issue, I hope it ends soon. Thank you! I am so happy about it, it makes me tear up a bit thinking about it. I don't have to make a decision until, like, January, though, so that's nice. To keep you posted, I waited on sending this until I finished my first chapter of my story! Well, I finished draft 2 of chapter one, if that makes sense. I'm so proud of it! Happy almost birthday, too.

Best,

Hey, Jade,

Things are obviously flying with you! I can imagine how you must feel, especially about the offer from Tuskegee! And your writing is obviously going well too. Try and remember who your friends are! Wow! --G--
