Hi Marit! (can I call you Marit? Because I can totally call you Miss Bohman or something if you don't like it!)
So how are your classes going? Gosh science is hard isn't it? I swear the teacher always assigns really really awful projects like all the time. I really wish she wouldn't but I guess that's what teachers do, right?
Oh wow, so this is totally weird isn't it? Um, you can just ignore that first part if you want to or something because stalling doesn't seem work very well on paper and I seem to be running out of note-space. (Which I guess I should've totally thought of before, right? I'm so stupid sometimes, I swear)
So! Anyway I heard you talking in the study area the other day (I don't think you noticed me? I was standing by the door) (not that I'm stalking you or anything, I swear! I just left my ringbinder, that's all and I was coming to get it- running out of space again) and you said some things. And anyway I just wanted to say sorry for being a wet noodle, because I totally didn't mean to be! And I'm really sorry if me being a noodle made you uncomfortable or anything like that, I'll really try harder from now on not to be so noodleish all the time.
I'm really really sorry I swear, I'll do much better from now on.
Yours truly,
Dagmar Thorsen
ps I'm not really sure what being a wet noodle means so if you could tell me that'd really really help a lot

Dagmar,
Hey, It's Marit (And it's totally fine to call me that. Only my dad calls me Miss. Bohman!)
My classes are okay. I'm having a harder time in that stupid lit class than in science, honestly. I hate poems. Anyway, you're totally okay! Like, you're so nice, it's really sweet and all. And you shouldn't apologize. Usually anyway. Like, you know when you're /to/ nice? And everyone kind of walks all over you? I don't now. Sometimes you seem like you let people walk all over you. That's what I meant by noodle. (You don't look like a piece of pasta, I promise!) I don't know, it's just sad when people can't stand up for themselves, I think. I don't know.
Sorry for hurting your feelings,
Marit

Dear Marit, (Oh gosh, thanks! That's so nice of you to let me call that)
Oh I know Literature is awful and don't even get me started on English! I heard Mr. Graves my teacher, he plays favorites all the time. That's just awful, isn't it? But I'm so glad your other classes are okay seriously if you ever need help or anything and it's something I know I'd be glad to help you! Not that I'm very good in a lot of classes, but. I lost my train of thought there sorry. Oh wow, you think I'm nice? But you're like.. super nice! I'm totally not that nice, but it's very nice of you to say that. I don't think anyone walks on me though (there was this guy once who trod on my foot but I got so surprised I screamed and everyone's been very careful since then) and my legs work just fine so standing isn't a problem (I broke my foot once though, but it's all better now!). But thank you for your concern!
Don't worry about it at all!
Dagmar (you can totally call me Aggie though because everyone does it's so nice to have a nickname isn't it?)

Aggie,
Sorry I don't really have a nickname, or I'd let you call me it. Marit's kind of hard to shorten.
I don't have Mr. Graves, so I don't know, I guess you'll have to let me know how he is. But I'm having a hard enough time without having favorites played, so it's probably for the best.
I'm not all that nice, you should know that! If I were you would never have written your letter! I've got a big mouth. You're always trying to help everyone and everything, it's really cool. I try to be friendly, but it just seems to come naturally to you. It's nifty. I'd get freaked out if someone screamed at me too, like, even if it was because I stepped on their foot. Did it hurt a lot? My foot was stung by a bee over the holiday, but I've never broken it.
Again, sorry for being such a loudmouth!
Marit

Dear Marit,
Oh no that's totally fine! Marit's really very pretty so you totally don't need a nickname! Dagmar's kind of bleh because when most people try to pronounce it it sounds like an old man coughing, so yeah. But Marit is sort of universally pretty, you know?
I really think you're nicer for being so nice to me even though I bugged you and everything and I'm not that nice, because some people I'm too afraid of to be nice to and I sort of just run away when I see them. But you say what you mean and you're still nice enough to be nice to others! Oh yeah he was very sorry and I blushed all day because everyone stared at me and called me a 'screamer' and then they sort of giggled but I don't really understand why. Not really, because he wasn't very large shoes but if you mean the time I broke then yeah I totally cried for like hours and everyone in the emergency room freaked out. Oh wow, that's awful though! You're not allergic are you?? I heard some bees can be poisonous too or carry diseases or something like that. It wasn't one of those, was it?
It's no problem, really!
Aggie

Aggie!
Uhg, Marit's such a weird name. Like, my dad's parents are from Denmark and my mom's are from Lebanon, so they picked the weirdest sounding name they had in common. It's so random. I wouldn't have minded being a Pamela or a Susannah. Or something. Dagmar doesn't sound that bad. To me anyway. (Maybe I've been pronouncing it wrong?) But if an old man tried to cough while saying it, well, I could see the confusion.
That's so bad! I have to say, that made me laugh too. (Like a real lol, lol!) You don't get why it's funny?
That sounds like it hurted really bad. The only bone I ever broke was my finger. I got it caught in the car door, it hurt bad, but I bet your foot would hurt a lot worse.
Nope! Luckily I'm not allergic. I'd hate to carried one of those stupid pens around all day. It just swelled up for a while. I didn't know there were poisonous bees in Destiny City. Like those Killer Bee things? or something else? That's kinda creepy!
Marit
ps. When thieving, take off evidence stickers!
[This letter looks like it was rushed, Marit was on her way to class and using an abused piece of tape, slapped it on Dagmar's door.]

Dear Marit,
Oh wow, you've got family from Denmark too?? My parents are totally from there! That's so cool! Aww you shouldn't Pamela sounds like a stripper name and Susannah is an old woman on a porch somewhere I'm sure, but Marit is like you know, fresh!
Maybe you've been pronouncing it right? It's Danish so your grandparents would probably know how to I dunno. We should meet up sometime and compare pronounciation of names, LOL! :--)
Not really, but I'm glad it made you laugh. I mean, it can't be so bad if it makes people happy right??
I don't know if they live around here it was totally just my first thought when you said that - well, wrote it - but I really really hope they don't. That'd be awful yeah, you'd never be able to have a picnic again without wondering!
Aggie
ps oh gosh I'm so sorry! Please don't tell please? I'll totally do all your homework or something, pleaseplease don't tell!!!

Aggie,
Yeah, my dad actually lived there until he moved to the US for college, no one would guess I was related though, I don't exactly look like a Viking. I guess I wouldn't want to be a southern belle-stripper, that'd kind of suck.
I always though it was like daahg mahr like, I dunno, I hate phonetics. But like you go aah! Dagmar. Sounding things out works better when they're not written on paper.
I hope there aren't poisonous bees here, this place is crazy enough without them. I wonder if poisonous bees make poisonous honey...
Anyway!
Talk to you soon,
Marit
ps. Your secret is safe with me!

Dear Marit,
That's awesome!! Mine lived there until dad got a work offer over here but then the work sort of crashed a couple of years later and they didn't want to uproot me or something like that, yeah.
I always say it kind of like, umh, dauh-marh, but it sounds pretty close. and yeah phonetics are evil, I'm not sure I did it right even! Totally, most things work better when not written on paper I think, but there's something funny about writing things down too though, like, I dunno.
Oh, that's an awful though!! can you just imagine buying a jar of honey at the supermarket and getting poisoned by it?? That's like, a bad CSI episode or something. "He should have known.. that a sweet tooth is a bad thing." BANGTHEMESONG
Yeah!
Aggie
ps thank you so much!

Dear Aggie,
I guess that would be good. I've never been to Denmark, so I don't know if we're losing out on something awesome or not. It would be really cool to visit, though, I bet.
Silent G, huh? I can say it that way if you want. Or I can stick with Aggie, whichever you prefer.
I can totally see that in CIACSI! (Sorry, I can't find a pencil anywhere!) I knew eating bee barf was a bad idea, and that would only be the icing on the cake!
Talk to you later,
Marit
ps. No problem!
[A smiley-face response graces the bottom corner of this letter, mirroring the stick figures.]
(orz, I should probably have rolled in the fire first to see if they both bite the dust, but I wanted at least one more post out of her. xD )
