Letter4: An Evening for Twelfth Night

Dear Tim,

          First, I want to response the questions that you asked me last week. Actually, I don't know why I am afraid of  butterflies. I think they are a little bit discusting ... And about our voice cover, I got the role of Alvin was because they thought I can be an important character in the film. And I did could do that high, squeeky voice.

          Now, I'm going to answer your two questions. 1) Chloe might be putting on a little extra weight because she eats out other cats' dish. 2) Countries ruling, or colonizing the isels in the Caribbean are the United States, France, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom.

          We went to Taipei American School at 28th Sepetember. This time, the show was " Twelfth Night". I had been waiting for that day since eleven months ago. That was so entertaining! It have always been a wonderful night whenever we have an event like this. I was so shocked and almost upset that the same actor I have adored since last show when I knew that he was posing, Sir Toby, a character I hated. But he changed my opinions! I thought that Toby is a bad charactor when I first saw the story. However, he acted so cute that I like Toby now. I start to look forward to the next year.

Sincerely,
Candy

Letter3: Voice Cover

Dear Tim,

         I love those flowers in summer, they are very pretty. But I hate butterflies... I am afraid of them, so many friends always laugh at me. Now I want to answer to your three questions. You usually plant flowers with red, orange, or yellow. Since they are the colors that are most attractive to the hummingbirds and butterflies. You also plant the blue flowers because you just like them. And the blossoms on the blue flowers are actually open from an hour after sunrise to about 10:00 in the morning. Last week, you recieved a postcard telling you that it was time for the city to begin work on every water main in your neighborhood. And about Labrador Retrievers, they are bred to go into the ice-cold water of a river or lake and retrieve the ducks that the hunter has shot. A "good" Labrador will go get the ball or other object and bring it back after you throw it out, or into the water. This game is called "fetch".

          Now, I'm going to answer the question you asked me last week. Yes, Hugo is in my French class. He was next to me in the picture. And Melody was beside me , too. But atually, she hadn't learned French for few months. This week, I made a big decision! I am not going to continue to learn it. Since we are busier in this semester, and I think that I can learn more by myself.

           Tuesday, we had voice cover in our Reading and Writing class. My group used the movie " Alvin and the Chipmunks." And I played as Alvin. In fact, I really like this activity! I like to do everything about performance. We did our best to do the work. Though my group didn't be chosen to attend the contest, I still felt very happy that we had this experience to do voice cover. Actually, I have a little envy to those people who can attend the contest, because it will must become a special memory for them.

Sincerely,
Candy

Letter2: New French Teacher

Dear Tim,

         I really want to see a real deer in person. It is very cute! I like animals but I am afraid of touching them. Sometimes, I think that dogs are lovely but I will try my best to keep them away. In fact, I don't know why I am afraid of them...

        Last Friday, I had a terrible evening... My French teacher went back to France last Monday, so we had a new teacher. I felt very anxiety when I waited for the new teacher. Other students were also curious about the answer. Then, we saw her! She is a beautiful woman. In fact, she had tought us for two weeks when our teacher went to Japan and Thailand five months ago. She is really a good teacher but I don't like to be her student. I felt stressful in the class. Though I don't like her, I will still keep learning French because I like to learn languages!

This is the photo we took in the last class with our dear teacher.

Sincerely,
Candy

Letter1: My Summer Vacation

Dear Tim,
     
       Hi, I'm back!! I don't like typhoon. In Taiwan, we often stop working and going to school because of  typhoon. But typhoon would cause terrible damage in somewhere. And the news would report some accidents. I hope everywhere could be fine, so I hate typhoon.
     
       Now, I'm going to tell about my summer vacation. I went to KTV with Tiffany, Red, Melody and Megan. Thaat was my first time wint to KTV with my senior  high school friends. We all had fun. Megan is really a good singer. Every Friday, I have French class with Hugo. But we felt very sad when we heard that our teacher was going to go back to France at the begining of September. So we had dinner with our teacher and classmates(include Melody). We gave our teacher a card that we made. We all love him very much! Then, my summer vacation was over... I think that I didn't do anything important in my vacaation.
     
       I  was happy that we have six new students in our class. Though we only have 18 people in class, it is very diferrent from other classes. I hope everything will be right in this semester.

Sincerely,
Candy

Letter 30: The End of Our 10th Grade

Dear Tim,

         I'm sorry that I won't write too much in this letter, because we are going to have the final exam, and I need to prepare for it. Taiwan is getting hotter and hotter right now. Last week, it was almost rain everyday. Many people will fell very uncomfortable in the terrible weather. Fortunatelly, I can bear the hot weather well.

          We are going to be separated into different classes. Many of our classmates will leave EHP, and some people will come in. I try not to feel sad about their leaving, however, I cannot help but keeping memorizing those wonderful memories between us. Wherever they go , I believe that we will be friends forever! I love them very much!

Sincerely,
Candy

Letter 29: My Summer Plan

Dear Tim,

         I am interested in the last part of your newsletter. I like languages, and I think that learning Turkish is special. Since I believe that there aren't many people can speak Turkish in Taiwan. If I have a chance in the future,  I hope I can learn this language. And I also have great interest on Turkish food. I have only eaten Turkish ice cream befaore, and I really want to try some delicious food.

          About my summer plan, I don't have a exactly schedule. But I have already know what I will do. First, I will improve my English and French. I want to read some books in these two languages. And then, I have to exercise more! In order to keep my weight and be healthier. The last is that I will go out with my friends. Cathy, Melody, and I are planning about our travel to Tainan and Kaohsiung.
Hope you will have a wonderful summer vacation.

Sincerely,
Candy

Letter 28: EHP Yearly Presentation

Dear Tim,

          I didn't eat zonngzi this year since I didn't went to my grandparents' house in Yilan with my family. My grandpa makes zongzi by himself every year. But  this year, I have to go to school to prepare our EHP yearly presentation, so I couldn't  visit my grandparents in the vacation. I really missed those tasty zongzi made by my dear grandpa...
          We had a wonderful time in our EHP yearly presentation though it rained hardly that day. There were three shows performed by second grader and one show by third grader. And I was one of the hosts for those shows. William and I hosted for a show named" Lost in Trsnsylvania". I played a British lady and William played a cowboy. For the other show" Unforgivable Sinners", Red, Hugo and I hosted it. I was a bride in our performance. But I was killed by the groom(Red played) soon. And he got marrried with the priest(Hugo played). When I was hurt by the groom, I had to scream loudly. And I swear that I did my best on the stage to let the audience laugh. Fortunately, I was success!

Sincerely,
Candy
