Dear Rahul,

Its been a long time that we met and I got to know that you are switching your schools due to your father job transfer. I understand these circumstances are challenging initially , but making friends in the new place will make this transition smoother. Being active on scoial media these days will help you making new friends in your neighbourhood.

Along with social media, you can also try joining clubs in your area which allows you to know more about the school. Also, in school, there are multiple sports and social activities, especially hockey, which is your favourite sport. You can make new friend easily while doing such activities.

I believe challenges makes life more interesting and if you take these challenges as an adventure, you will enjoy this transitional journey. You can always learn new things from new people and friends which can enhance your social skills as well. Let me know if you find my advice useful.

Can’t wait to hear from you soon.

Your best friend,

Prince
