GIVING ADVICE

         

Dear Agony Aunt, All the other children laugh at me at school and say my clothes are completely unfashionable. I feel really stupid. I ask my parents to buy me better clothes but they say they don't have enough money. What can I do? Dear Jim, You should worry about doing well at school and not about what others say about you. That will show real maturity and, after a while, your not reacting will convince those who complain about what you wear that there is no fun to be had.

MY HOLIDAY PLANS
                                                                                                        Tomares, 24th May, 2014


 Dear Olga,

 Thank you for your last email. I loved to learn about your city. In this letter I'm going to tell you about my holiday plans.

 I'm really excited about my summer plans because my parents are taking me to New York!! We are leaving on 12th July and we have great plans. First, we are going to visit the Metropolitan Museum in New York City. I don't like museums in general, but this is really special. We are also going to go sightseeing and we are going to visit the statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building. Then we are going to the Great Lakes to do some scuba diving. Finally, we are going to Niagara Falls. That's an enormous waterfall. Part of it is in the USA and part of it is in Canada. It's amazing!

 I'm going to need a big suitcase because I need to pack my summer clothes, shorts and T-shirts mainly, but I will also need my swimsuit, my flip flops, and some jumpers or cardigans because it might be cooler at night and by the Niagara Falls! When we come back from New York, I'm going to go to the beach with my family. We usually go to Matalascañas. I have lots of friends there so it'll be a lot of fun!! I can't wait for the summer!! What are you planning to do?
 I hope next year we can keep in touch. Have a nice summer vacation!!!


 Kind regards, Isabel
