Dear Grandpa,
How are you？I'm writing to say a big "thank you" for my birthday gift. I really love the MP6 and I listen to it every day when I walk to work.
Everything here is going well. I started my new job last week and I like it very much. These days I'm living with some friends in an apartment （公寓） in the city center, but it's very expensive, ten kilometers outside the city.
What other news（消息）is here？Well, I'm learning to drive these days. Mom told me on the phone last night that you bought a new car. Is the car cool？
I saw Mom and Dad last week. I traveled （旅行） down Bridgton on Friday night and stayed for the weekend. Mom's fine but Dad isn't very happy. He doesn't like his job. I think he should try to find a new one.
I have to stop now because Joe is calling me. We will go to Mary's party tonight. Take care, and thank you again.
Yours,
Dave
