After much contemplation, I have decided to reconnect with a friend from grade school. We were in the 5th grade together and quite close. I found out she was on facebook so I tried my luck and sent her a message. Hopefully, she will remember me and respond back. I copied the message I sent her and will let you know if she responds. Here's hoping.
Salaam M_______,
I don't know if you remember me, but we went to school together at Beacon House Public School. My name is Sana N____and I think we did 5th grade together with Miss Zeba (she was a very strict teacher at Beacon House). We used to play the game with the elastic band all the time. I also remember coming to your birthday party. You lived in an apartment complex next to KDA.
If doesn't jog your memory, we also had a mini reunion back in '94 or '95 in front of the American Embassy in Karachi. Our families were applying for the American visa.
I am in California and just wanted to connect with you and see how you are doing.
Sana N______
