Sonia is studying at Chinese University now. She lives there to save 1
time. She does not need to commute by MTR every day. She has lots of
books to read and homework to do, and is working like a dog. She now
comes home only once a week and I feel a bit lonely. But the good thing
is that I have the whole bedroom to myself. 5
Thank you for sending me the posters of the Korean pop stars. I can’t find
them in Hong Kong. Last month, a Korean band TBX held a concert here.
Sonia and I went and we had a wonderful evening. But each ticket cost

I miss you. 10

Amy
