Dear Not-So-Stranger, Aren’t you friends with Anthony; anyway, I think I recognize you from Lowell. I secretively took a picture of you and texted it to Spenser, but neither of us can figure out who you are. You fell asleep resting on your elbow and you have a long time to sleep too, because our [...]

Dear Stranger, You seemed very young to me, like you were just out of high school with your driver’s license burning a hole in your pocket. But I doubt that MUNI would hire someone that young and there are currently no bus operator positions open either; I looked it up. So I’ll have to deduce [...]

It’s just me, for the most part, and the Korean receptionist-cum-security man at his own desk behind me. At times, students trickle in and out of the lobby, heading back to their [...]

During our last week of senior year in high school, Mr. Shimmon made us each self-address a letter to our future selves that he would send to us in four years. He must have miscalculated because my mom received the letter a few weeks ago in the mail. My handwriting’s still the same–bubbly and round [...]

Dear Cousin, I still wear the ring your mama made for me, though it’s now given me a tan so I have to alternate fingers every so often. It acts as my engagement, promise, and wedding rings (not to you though, because that would be kind of gross). It is my nostalgia, commitment, and my [...]

Dear S, Upon browsing one of my favorite sites, I came across the answer to your walletlemma. Though I am an equal opportunity walleteer (unless it is ugly in which case, I discriminate), I just can’t turn down an accessory that makes me look like I’m 1) not holding a wallet (thieves, be confounded), 2) [...]

Dear Bravo, I love love LOVE your network so much. I love your trashy shit like the drama on The Real Housewives of the OC. I love your competitive shit like Top Chef and Project Runway. I love your drool-worthy shit like Make Me a Supermodel, where you are currently featuring my future husband, Colin. [...]

Dear Daddy Hubes, I know that tomorrow is your birthday (thank you, Facebook) so I’ve decided to arrange a little something for you in the dining halls. I’ve planned a Theme Dinner of Authentic Thai Cuisine for tomorrow night! I’ve even managed to plan the menu, which includes: Thai Larb-style Pizza (made with chicken and [...]

THAT’S NOT MY NAME. THAT’S NOT MY NAME. Damn that is an addicting song. I checked my mail today and got three letters. One from the Boy. One from my mommy. And one from Bizness. The first one was sweet. The second one just had my new CA ID in it. The third one read: [...]
