Dear Peter,
In your last email, you said you like collecting stamps. That sounds greatly. I like it, too and had already collected lots of them. So I’d be glad to offer you some Chinese stamp.
Besides collecting stamps, I enjoy listen to different kinds of music in my spare time, like pop music, jazz, classical music and so on. For a result, I have made many good friends but learnt much about the world. So I have benefited a lot my hobbies.
As a Senior 1 student, I am now working very hard to prepare for the coming exam. In the class, I listen to the teachers attentively and take notes careful. After class, I take an active part on various sports to keep healthy.
Best wishes.
