Dear Nina,
Hi, girl. Sorry, I do not give you any life updates as often
as before.
I’m busy because I have to prepare for a singing competition.
I practice hard because I want to win. I even take a vocal lesson.
You know what? I have the best vocal coach ever.
Let me tell you about my vocal coach. His name is Brian.
He is my brother’s friend. He is very talented.
Not only that, he is also handsome. Hahaha…
