The letter effectively congratulates the friend and expresses pride, but the discussion on future career plans is brief. Grammar and vocabulary are generally good, though there are minor errors and informal expressions that affect the semi-formal tone.

Dear Dave,
It's been so long since we've talked. How's it going? I am writing this letter because I heard that you just graduated with a degree in computer science, so
i
decided to check in with you for a bit. Congratulations! I knew you could achieve it.Words cannot describe how proud
i
am of you. From all those years of messing around and slacking off. I'm so glad that I was the one that kept you reaching for your goals. You're one of a kind man. My girlfriend Holly had a bright idea that came to her mind that she wants to host a barbecue party next week for the crew for old time's sake and to catch up on
one another properly. The bill's on everyone but you, You're the spotlight by then.I'm currently studying in Tokyo university in Biology. It's been a stressful barrage of work lately. Mainly coming from my
part time
jobs and my dissection project that I've been working on. So, Where do you want to go from now? I heard that big name companies give out good offers for outstanding talent like you! I just know it. I hope we can see each other next week.Best wishes,
Alex
