Dear Sumit
Hope you are in the pink of your health and enjoying your studies.

You may be aware that I got admission in a college in Bengaluru. I have just shifted to my new hostel. I have to share this room with one of my batchmates. It will be a great opportunity for me to learn new things and make new friends.

Unfortunately, I am unable to meet my new room mate as he has gone to his home town for a few days. While looking at his belongings I made some interesting observations about my new room mate. The way things are strewn all over the place, he seems to be a man in a hurry. You can say that he is not good at taking care of his belongings. But the way his books are kept on the table he seems to be a studious boy. There is a racket and a ball, so he must be fond of sports as well. His stylish photo on the wall and a cartoon on file towel forces me to think that he is really a funny guy.

I hope I will have great time enjoying his friendship. Once he comes back I will write more about him and my new stages in life. Convey my regards to uncle and aunt. Yours truly Amit
