Letter 21: The Cup Song

Dear Tim:
       
          I am sorry that I can't spend too much time to respond you. Since we are going to have a big exam next Monday and Tuesday. But I still want to share something about The Cup Song to you.
          When I was  a second-grader in junior high, I had a perfect memory with my classmates. There were the lessons that my class had to have some activities with some elders. And one of the lesson was that we needed to teach those elders playing cups like The Cup Song. When they learned it well eventually, our teacher took a video for us. My classmates and I sang the song loudly and happily and we passed the cups one by one. We really had a good time at that afternoon with the elders. Until now, I can still recalled the memory vividly and clearly.Therefore, I always have many feelings when I hear The Cup Song every time.

Sincerely,
Candy

Letter 20: Birds

Dear Tim,

         I really like the article about birds. This made me think of a composition I have written. Last year, I wrote a composition about the bird as my English homework. Though I am afraid of those real birds that are flying beside me, I still envy them! I want to fly in the sky happily. I want to be free and sing loudly every day. Maybe those birds aren't very delighted like I think, I still hope that I can live like a bird some day.

Letter 19: Beauty and the Beast

Dear Tim,
 
          I am really interested in Alice's stories. I like her blogger very much.When I saw the photographs of food she posted, I really wanted to eat them. They must taste delicious.
          Speaking of fox, my classmate, Doris, really like fox. She always says that fox is very cute, we can't kill them or even eat them! Therefore, I decide that I will give her a fox doll for her birthday.

Letter 18: Baseball and my name

Dear Tim,
     
         You really like baseball, right? In fact, I don't understand baseball very clear. But when I was just a child, I always watched baseball games on TV with my parents. At that time, I felt that it was very tired to watch a whole game. Now, I have more interest on it. Sometimes, I watch baseball game to relax.
          Oh! I know that Hugo had told you that I changed my English name before. In fact, I changed that name for only one day. My mother called me Candy when I was little. Though I didn't use my English name in elementary school and junior high, I didn't change my name when I went to senior high. Last semester, I always thought that my name is a kid's name. Therefore, one day when Hugo, Melvyn and I were on the MRT, they chose the name, Candice, for me. At first, I thought that this name sounds very good. It is not only sounds like my name but also a normal name. But when everyone called me "Candice" at the next day, I was not accustomed to this name. So I changed my name back. Now, I feel "Candy" is a sweet name and I like it very much!

                                                                     
Sincerely,
Candy

Letter 16: Chinese New Year

Dear Tim,
     I have a wonderful Chinese New year in my winter vacation. During the New Year, I went to my grandfather's house to celebrate it. I hadn't seen my grandfather and grandmother for almost half a year. Therefore, I felt very happy in spite of we just stayed at home. And during my winter vacation, I went to Taichung for two days with my classmates, Melody, Melvyn and William. We all had a good time!
    Speaking of Valentine's Day, I really hope that one day I can celebrate this holiday with me lover. I really envy those people who gets beautiful flowers or sweet chocolate from their lover.
    This is the photo we took in Taichung. From left to right are: Melody, Melvyn, William, and me!

Sincerely,
Candy
