Dear Claudia,

Depressed am I. I'm in the hospital as of right now, lying on this cold, hard bed. September 11th shocked us all, but me the most. I got hit on the head with a rock and I'm still in the hospital, even though right now it's January. Well, I'm being released tomorrow! Yay! I'm starting at a new school in Soho, farther away from the WTC, seeing as Parker was destroyed in the rubble. I'm just ending first semester in my senior year and I am scared. I have applied to mainly NY universities, but I want to go to college on the west coast, kinda far away from all this stuff. So, I applied for Western New Mexico University in Silver City, New Mexico. Its VERY inexpensive and its non competitive. They have a diverse math department, I hope to teach Math.

Well Call Me in the Hospital,

Stace



Dear Abby,

How come you had to move? We miss you terribly, here. I know you would've added some fun to this college application process. It's horrible, well not too bad. I applied to only one college, Nazarene Indian Bible College, also in New Mexico, I'll be kinda near Stace (if she gets accepted), I've been thinking of being a Religious Education Teacher, over these past years, I've realized my two passions, children and God. Nazarene is very small with only 35 students, I swear. So send me a note.

Love,

Mary Anne

Hey MA!

I'm so tired of this college stuff, I cannot believe it. As you know, I applied to a lot of colleges, but I'm almost positive I'm going to King's College in Tennessee, I got accepted. Since Karen was killed in the car accident when she was 8 six years ago, my grades were steadily dropping. The minimum GPA u have to have is 2.4 and my overall GPA is 3.0. I'll probably major in Pre-Veterinary studies, since I'm going to be a veterinarian, but I also want to play in the Olympics for the Women's Volleyball Team, and the King V-Ball program is great.

This stuff is wearing me down,

Kris

Guys!

I'm a big sister again. Shantee(my dad's third wife and Jessi's aunt) gave birth to Echo Horizon Schafer today. She's very big with curly black hair like Shantee's, big blue eyes like my dad's and light brown skin as a mix between Shantee's African-American and my dad's white. She is gorgeous. Just wanted to drop a line to let you guys know. We're all flying out to Stoneybrook for Echo's christening. Gracie is very proud of her little sister. Best part? All of you guys are godmothers!

6 Happy Birthday Echo!

Dawnie!



Bonjour Mallory!

I just finished touring in old Paree. I'm on my way back to SB.

SYS,

Jess
