Hi Bohan,

I’m writing in English because I know we both need to practice. Thanks for your last email. I am starting school tomorrow and I’m trying to learn the public transit system here. It is really different here. Their accents are very strange. I am a little lonely. 

I miss Shanghai and I miss playing in the band with you. I don’t know anyone who plays rock music here. I try to practice the guitar, but the neighbour who lives opposite complained yesterday. He was very angry. His daughter plays the violin and he said that my ‘horrible noise’ disturbed her. Later, I saw her staring out of the window at me. I think she hates me too. She’s really beautiful...

Please write back soon. I want to hear more about what you’re doing. 

See you!

Mingyang
