dear pat,

sometimes, it's really hard to put stuff in words, but i will try. i know u will never read this but i dun care. u may not know how i feel but this is life. i need my space. i need to breath. i just need to get this off my back. this is wat i really think of u. u are an over sensitive idiot... even worse then my friend's grandma. not everything which comes out of my mouth requires an explanation. ever heard of something called a casual remark? try not to delve too much into stuff. it will make ur life better. really. and we have only known each other for like wat? a few months? i am not ur best friend. can u stop trying to behave as if u have known me all my life? and shutting up when somebody asks u a question is totally rude. with a capital R. especially after i have just answered ur question. reciprocity. ever heard of it? and what is so great about being the teacher's darling. hello, ur teacher is not going to be ur mummy for life. i suggest u just work hard k.

and once last note. please BATHE. or at least invest in some really good perfume.

yours sincerely,

TAL
