Dear Journal (Grampa writing)

Dear journal,

I was amazed how much things has changed through the years I have been in shanghai (1994-2006). Especially the last year because when I came to shanghai, the place was like Indonesia but now it's a humongous city with skyscrapers and big buildings except for the market in the city with fake copies of DVD. In 2004, I had to retire because I was 65 years old but I liked Shanghai so much, I stayed in Shanghai for 2 more years. In those 2 years, everyday was a fun day because I went shopping and to parties with my wife. The last year I was in Shanghai, it smelled bad, dirty, lots of trucks, cars, buses and bicycles. I hope my grandson would have a life like mine or better.
