Tehran <-> Washington, DC 1970-1973 teen girl blog
Back in 1970, Hilary and Kathy were 14 years old and best friends in Washington, DC. Then Kathy moved to Tehran. They wrote to each other pretty often--and kept the letters--for your pleasure as a proto-blog from the 70s. The letters start here.

Hilary to Kathy, April 3, 1973 contl, Arlington, VA
Shauna, Marty F. and I drove down to University of Virginia (in Charlottesville) one Sunday. Marty wanted to see Larry (remember them from last year?) I had the supreme thrill of seeing OSCAR again (remember my basketball honey?) He looks Terrible and we hardly spoke to each other. Glad to know I was right thinking that I didn’t really like him.

I have FOUR Termpapers this spring. All due within about 3 weeks of each other. UGH UGH….

I hope to get a job in some nifty Georgetown clothes store this summer. FAT CHANCE- I’ll probably end up being a waitress at Hot Shoppes.

I'll probably end up as a waitresss at Hot Shoppes.

My writing for school is getting better – Maybe I will become a journalist (HA HA) it’s the only thing I can do at all.

I’m afraid my world travel is going to be put of for a while. No chance even of getting as far as New York in the near future. Do you realize it’s been 3 years? JESUS!

With any luck you will come to the East Coast and if you don’t come to William & Mary I will come to see you during the holidays. I am sending my revolting senior picture. Believe me, I don’t look like that! My hair is difft. From the way it used to be – I have cut it to a medium long length – w/shorter in the front – I am ruining it w/electric curlers every day.

Anyway, Aunt Esther just called & I have to go get something. For your info- Alex is living at home doing NOTHING! Sam (dog) has recovered from a nasty wound to the shoulder – (I am in love w/the vet – but that’s another Boring Tale- HA HA!) Everything is the SAME! A little flack now and then about the fact that I have driven Alex’s FIAT to school all year and continue to do so – it was bought for him to drive to the Community College but since he doesn’t go anymore….

Love, Hilary Favorite Records: (You would hate) John Denver – Rocky Mountain High America – Homecoming & 1st album
