Dear Grandpa,
How are you grandpa? I was really happy to see you and Grandma at my graduation ceremony, and I
hope you’re recovering from your high blood pressure soon.
Do you mind if I visit you on Saturday? I’d really like to show you my new cat. I think you’ll adore her.
Her name is Susan, and I got her last week. For your information, she’s your favorite breed: an angora
cat, just like Soho!
I’m excited to come and to see you soon. Let me know if Saturday will be ok for my coming.
Love,
Onavia
Aunty, I have some good news for you. Last month I passed my final examination. A week ago I
succeeded to join in a senior high school English competition. Last night my parents promised to send
me to a famous English course in my town. They also promised me if my scores in English are good,
they'll send me to a foreign university. Great, isn't it? I'll work hard. I want to be a great pediatrician like
you, Aunty.
Well, that's all for now. Looking forward to having your news.
Love

Dear Betty,
I'm writing to you concerning of my last day in Jogja. I just got back from Borobudur, the wonderful
temple I've ever seen. The weather is fine. We are now staying in a hotel. It's not far from Malioboro.
We are treated will here. It has many excellent staff who serve the customers. We plan to go around
Malioboro after the children take a short nap. We want to enjoy having "lesehan" there. It is a kind of a
restaurant but we sit on the ground.
Many kinds of local handicraft are sold along Malioboro street. Both domestic and foreign tourists are
interested in them. I want to buy some as souvenirs. Don't worry, I'll also buy you the most interesting
one.
Love,
Dara

Dear Barbara,
Hi there. How are things with you? It's good to know that you are doing fine in business. Have you
received my postcard?
I am now sitting in my hotel room writing a letter to you about my wonderful holiday. I think this is the
most wonderful holiday have I ever had. There are a lot of interesting tourist objects to visit, beautiful
local art and craft, tasty traditional food, and much more. It's Thursday today. I can't believe this my last
day. I wish I could spend more time here. I am certain I will stay longer on my next visit.
I'll be home about 3 p.m. tomorrow if the flight is on time. On Monday I must go back to work. I can't
wait to show my video to my class.
