e 96§ Hi Stephanie! How have you been? What have you done in the past year7 Sorry i haven't written in a long time. It’s been a crazy year. I’ve been pretty busy. I was bored with my job, and my life was going nowhere. I had no real career and no boyfriend! I knew I needed to make some changes. First, I found a new job. I now work for a travel agency. I love it, but it’s a lot more stressful than my old job. I just got a raise, though. Also, I told my friend Jar kie that I wanted to go out, so last fall she and I went out more. Then last December she arranged a date between Patrick and me. Patrick is a student, and he hopes to graduate in the summer. Guess what? We're engaged now! Surprised? Patrick and I plan to get married next year. Then we hope to travel around Mexico for our honeymoon. We're very happy! Looking forward to hearing all your news. Nicole
