Dear James,

Good Evening. We love to accept you invitation for watching a movie. I remember last time, we enjoyed Big Hug Day. Our classes will start January 16, so we can make it at least twice before that. Let me know any free time may be for next week.
Oh, remember I told you about Judy Abbott and Daddy- Long- Leg? Here
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daddy-Long-Legs_%28novel%29) you can read more about her character. Daddy- long- Leg was my favorite cartoon when I was a teenager. You know teenager girls. They all are waiting for their handsome and wealthy prince.
I also ordered Funny in Farsi, the book I told you about Iranian family in the US, through Amazon today. It will ship between 4 to 14 business days. Please let me know whenever you receive it. You can take that as my New Year’s gift. I am sure you will enjoy the book.
Let me know your free time for our movie night.

Regards,

Dear James,

It is Christmas Eve and I Hope a great night for you and your family. I don’t know how non Christian celebrate Christmas, as it is related to the birth of Jesus, but as an American traditional I wish a great time for you.
It was not a good start for my holidays today. I found my psychology professor gave me B in his class and it shocked me early morning. Before final, my overall was 98% and I am pretty sure about my A in this class. I emailed him and till morning, I checked my mail box zillions times. Still no answer.
It is my first non- A grade and I am so lost know. I don’t know what should I do and how can I follow with it. I am sure it was a mistake.
Any way! When it comes to my grades, I act like a first grade elementary school kid. I am so worry about my grade and GPA.
I have to tell my blog’s reader about our English challenge. I will write about it tomorrow.

PC: Such a sad gift for Christmas. OK. I know it is enough.

I am going to a writer!
Here is the story. James and Megan are our best American friends here. I saw James in first week I came to the US. He helped me to pick up a Cal king mattress from a friend’s house, and that year they invited us to their house for Thanksgiving, which was my best Thanksgiving ever, because it was my first Thanksgiving.
He is very eager to learn different languages. He knows a little bit Farsi, and last night I found he is learning Indian (or Tamil may be).
Any way, I have a long story about my English Writing. I will tell that tomorrow, but very short, I asked James and Megan to be my tutors; however I want to practice free writing, whatever I want about my daily life. I email James every day and also post my paragraph in my English blog. After his correction, I post his answer right under my post. In this way, I can see my growth and we can share our ideas together too.
Wish my luck!

PC: I have my last final today. Art History, and believe me, it is very harder to remember modern artists and works than traditionals. What was wrong with Michelangelo’s sculptures?
