Dear Tim,
Thanks for your letter. I’m pleased to hear you
had an enjoyable Christmas vacation.
We received our first semester report a few days
ago. I got good grade for Science, English and
History, but my Math result was poor. My Math
teacher asked me to spend more time on it. I
must study harder next semester.
It is almost Tet. That’s the Lunar New Year
Festival in Vietnam. I think I told you about it in
my last letter. We’re going to Hue tonight to
celebrate the festival with my grandmother. I’ll
send you a postcard from there.
Write soon and tell me all your news.
Regards,
Hoa
