Hi, Alex.
I am very glad to hear from you again. I have not written to you for ages because I was busy but now I'm ready to tell you about my future plans as you asked me.
After finishing school I am going to enter the Polytechnic Institute because I want to be an architect in the future. I would like to keep working on study of architecture of the past, to learn design of modern and ancient architecture. I want to learn much more about characteristics of urban and landscape construction, I'll learn how to work with inventories to be able to make assessment of the urban development areas. This is a very serious and difficult profession.
But my parents disagree with me. They are shocked. They require that I enter the Medical University and become a dentist. I can't convince them that medicine is not for me. So while we have a little war at home, but I think I will be able to win it, because my grandmother keeps me trying to help.
Tell me, what are your plans for the future. I would like to know what Institute are you going to enter.
Write soon.
Best regards to your family and friends.
Yours,
(твое имя)
