Dear New Zealand,

Hi! Its Connecticut! ...you remember me, right? I was the Brunnete with blue eyes that washed up shore in front of your house once?

Anyways, hows it going? Im currently taking a rest from all the paperwork America has been giving me... (although he does like me to do my kitchen messup, the hamburger, again...)

*sneeze* i have to wrap this up. Ahh, the room is spinning.

Bye!

P.S. Don't forget me please...


Tēnā koe Paula,

Kia ora! Of course I remember you! It isn't often someone washes up on the shore, Ae? You were Beached as, mate.

Ah, it's alright down here. Earthquake and Election mayhem everywhere. (hey, that rhymed!) I hope you're okay, it sounds like you've gotta bit of a cold! Make sure to take plenty of breaks and try to rest as much as possible, you hear me? Don't let work get in the way of getting better! Try telling Alfred that it would be very heroic of him if he does your paperwork for you while you're sick, and bribe him with hamburgers.

And of course I won't forget you – I know only to well what it's like to be forgotten by the majority of the world, so I make sure not to forget anyone!

Take care of yourself!

P.S. How come you have four last names, eh?
