dear,

that sounds like a song lyric, but it's not. i was reading your 
webpage, and it made me smile, and it sounded like something nice to 
say. and it's true, too. so.

first off, i promise not to complain that your page hurts my eyes. 
that out of the way, raffe's a cutie! i was also going to make an 
itemized list of things on your survey that i wanted to comment on, 
but now i realize that's they're not important enough.

we haven't been talking! this bothers me. everyone else is at least 
making some time to hang out with their proms dates, you know. on top 
of which i miss you.

i was a little worried about the whole prom thing, about it being 
really akward. but i'm not worried about that anymore, because i've 
decided it's not going to be. so in case you were worried too, you 
don't need to be. ;)

i did nick as my poet presentation for ap english... but it was 
really hot and i flopsweated and no one was paying attention. it went 
really badly. the teacher just looked at me funny. i was trying to 
explain how all his songs were about his life and all... and tried to 
make the link between "road" and "pink moon" with the moon motif, and 
pointed out the radical change in guitar style in "know"... but no 
one seemed to care. then i had to split to play improv games. sigh.

this summer i will hopefully be installing e-mail programs on every 
single computer at suffolk community college for $9.25 an hour. 
hopefully. maybe not, yet, they will have to tell me. anyway, the 
money's all for college of course, which is why i can stand it -- i'm 
counting the days. of course, first i'm going to buy a stereo with a 
turntable, so i can listen to "the all-girl summer fun band" single 
i'm about to order, along with fishyclap. i haven't had the money, 
because of prom and all... i still need to figure out the rides for 
that. noah totalled his car, so that might not be an option. i (we) 
seem to have gotten left out of everyone's plans. sigh. there might 
be room in lindsay's limo, but she's not sure. i went to my friend 
emily's prom last night, and no one did anything especially exciting 
afterwards... we just slept in the limo at the beach while everyone 
else got drunk. it was a little silly. then i forgot to tip the limo 
driver, and i was the last one out! it was terrible.

oh, that was the other thing i wanted to say... your summer reading! 
it's so much harder than mine! we just did great expectations and 
jane eyre and pride and prejudice and the bluest eye... but you're 
doing -tolstoy-! (it is tolstoy, right?) scary stuff. and tess... and 
three others? wow, that's heavy. good luck, dear..

ok, i've had enough rambling for now. if i don't hear from you i'll 
just send out another one, because it's nice to chatter away. i 
enjoyed it. so thanks.

love you,
adam
