At Sea First Week Gone

RACHEL

Dear Penelope,

Hey! I’m hoping we can be pen pals while I’m away this time instead of Ethan, since we broke up ... (I’ll try to keep my letters shorter than usual, so you (and Greg ) won’t be overwhelmed by my long-winded-ness.)

They’ve remodeled the ship so it looks far more modern, and I think they must’ve gotten a few complaints about only having one coffee shop onboard because we now have three.

To my surprise, I’ve hung out with the same group of girls every night for the past week, and I enjoy their company.

A few guys have hit on me, but I don’t think I’m ready to date just yet.

(I don’t think I’ll be ready for a long time after Ethan …

Do you think I was right to leave and be done with him?)

Write back and tell me what’s going on back at SBU soon.

With love & sails,

Rachel
