Haha that's cute.

I definitely liked how you tied it together at the end.

Steph, I love this essay. It's so well-written and engaging!

I'm so sorry that I didn't see you while I was in Ithaca, my dear. Allie said you were busy until 10 on Thursday night, and by that time Landy and I were having a long talk and were falling asleep. (He's been having a rough time, he's taking a semester off...and there were things he wanted to share with me face-to-face.)

:(

I miss you dearly, and good luck with everything this semester. I look forward to reading more of your essays!

Love,
Sara
