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
