A Letter to a Friend in a New City

Dear Lana, I hope this letter finds you well in your new city. It has been quite some time since you moved away for college, and I must admit, I miss having you just a few houses away. However, I am excited for this new chapter in your life and I hope everything is going smoothly for you. Living on your own in a college hostel must be quite an adventure. I can only imagine the new experiences and challenges you are facing. Here in our small town, not much has changed. Life goes on as usual, but I can't help but feel a bit envious of the exciting opportunities that await you in the city. I'm curious to know how you have settled in. When does your college officially start? Are you enjoying the place you are living in? How is the neighborhood? It must be quite different from what we are used to here. I can't believe you are living in a boarding house, it must be a whole new level of independence. As for me, I will also be starting college soon, but my parents insisted that I live at home. They believe it will be more convenient and cost-effective. While I understand their reasoning, I can't help but feel a bit disappointed that I won't get to experience the same level of independence as you. I hope you are making new friends and creating wonderful memories in your new city. Remember to take care of yourself and stay focused on your studies. College life can be overwhelming at times, but I have no doubt that you will thrive and succeed. Please keep me updated on your adventures and let me know if there's anything I can do to support you from afar. I miss you dearly and I can't wait to hear all about your new life in the city. Sending you lots of love and best wishes, [Your Name]
