Dear Mom,
This is my last letter. Yesterday in our game we lost 43-13. I played almost all the last
half. Today we play another game. Lots of fun. This letter will be very short, because I must do
some studying. I think I will go into art and model cars in clay, is that a good idea? My new suit
fits perfectly. I just moved again in the dorm. Now I am on the porch. No roommate. Lots of
fun.
Love,
Crelly
