Dear Dad
I hope this letter finds you in utmost happiness. I also hope that you all are missing me there. I am writing this letter to tell you about the super fun I am having at the hostel!
It was sad to not see you on Independence day this year, but my friends had planned a Kite Flying event that day, which no one would ever want to miss! The hostel has a big terrace which is deserted most of the times. At about 4 p.m., we assembled there with snacks and cold drinks, though none can compare to the samosas mother makes. For a long time we flew kites with great ecstasy. More and more hostel occupants kept on joining us and the party got bigger and more joyous! The crowd had increased so much that even the manager of the hostel came in bewildered and gave us some music speakers. You should have seen him dancing.
All in all, it was a brilliant day and I wish you were there too. Mother would surely have made you taste fun by cutting your kite, ha!
Write to me soon.
Yours affectionately
Dhriti
