SentLetters

This letter is from a girl to a male friend. She is talking about a boy that she really likes, but is unsure if he likes her in return. She also talks about her fear over an upcoming dance.

oneA.) I don’t know why I am telling you all this

twoB.) I don’t know why I’m taking time away from studying sociology to tell you all this

threeC.) I dont think I’ve writte anyone a *note* since like 8th grade.

Okay. So this thing with Walter, You know who that is dont you. Well, I’m scared I like him. Yes I said scared. Becasue we’ve become way good pictures (sorry I’m in photo and have no brain) friends and for one thing I dont want to weird him out. for another I dont know if he has any interest in me. And I have nooo idea what would happen

with us.

He has to be the most confusing boy I have ever met. He almost seems like a walking contradiction - but in a good way. And maybe Im just not used to having guy friends like him - and maybe that is a reason to totally stay friends or maybe thats a reason to take this opportunity, Ahhh this sux! Im so flippin confused. And my problem w/ dances. See I’ve never ever been asked to a dance. Not that its any big deal b/c I mean most of my guy freinds arent really the dance type and lets face it. I’m not reallyt the type that guys usually ask. but anyways about the dance thing with Walter. I shouldn’t even worry/think about anything because there is no reason to because I’m pretty sure he has no interest in me or going to a dance with me or anything like that. But its the whole what if… thing

What if he woulda asked me but now he won’t since he things I wouldn’t want to.

(name1 ), why and I such a girl? Am I being stupid? Give me advice dangit!

grrr. So yeah please dont tell anyone about my ‘dance dilema’ or my crushy thing on Walter. I will kill you! Im cereal.

I dont want to scare him off and if by any miracle he likes me too he will prolly eventually tell me you know? And most of all I really dont wanna get hurt. so keep it quiet! Tank you - I needed to get that out. (name2)

Hi (name1) This is supposed to be an interesting note. ohwell, so much for that! Ice skating is gonna be SO much fun, you think? We wont’s let Meaghan fall, k? or maybe we’ll leave that to tim. I can’t wait for christmas and JTB, thats at 2nd church, there are some really hot guys there, but then I’m not supposed to go into that, am I? You know you really ought to pick up some sort of foreign accent, it’s so cute! Scottish is always good…

Our groups gonna go to CO, it’ll be great, we’re gonna climb Teddy’s and sheep’shead, maybe. You know the girls are gonna lock y’all out. And we’ll go on the lily lake trail and eat chocolate bars…and after we go riding , your butts are going to be SO sore! It’ll be so funny watching you come in…I’m going to leave. I want to go to Longmont, my Baba’s gonna teach me how to fly. And then I’ll sit under the wing and eat Pringles and watch the mountain clouds…but I won’t have any guitar to listen to. :( But I’ll be ok and then I’ll hik along the road to the cabin, that might ake me a few days, it’s about 70 miles. Four days? And then I’ll stay at the cabin for the whole summer, won’t you be sad?

I gotta go.

Everyone has a box of letters somewhere. It can be letters sent to you from friends or family, they can be from when you were a kid, to just last week. Either way, you have been saving them for some reason, waiting for something to happen, some reason for why you have been saving these letters for so long.Letters dont have to be sent in an envelope by your Aunty, or your grandmother. They can be notes that you passed between friends back in highschool, they can be formal letters that you thought were hilarious, or sad, or life-changing.

It is important to share these things with eachother. We should all share these things with other people. These are the things that make us, and break us, that change our lives, and that make our lives worth living.

What makes us more human than the interactions that we have with eachother? What shows more into someone’s soul than what they commit to paper?
