Hi, Max.
I am very glad to hear from you again. I haven't written to you for ages because I was busy at school.
You ask me about my future profession. Well, after finishing school I am going to enter the Polytechnic Institute because I want to be engaged in architecture in the future. I want to know 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 win it, because my granny supports me.
Tell me, what your plans for the future are. I would like to know what results you have at school and what Institute you are going to enter.
It's all for me for today.
Write soon.
I am always pleased with your letters.
Best regards to your family and friends.
Yours,
Oleg
