The example of letter
Dear Siti,
It was great hearing from you. I hope you are doing well. I felt surprise when I received a
present from you. I felt excited as well. Anyway, I just wanted to thank for the present you gave
me for my birthday.
The book is really good, and it influences me a lot. The story inspires me to do better in my life.
I will show this book to my friends.
I really missed our togetherness when we were in high school . We spent the time together doing
our favourite activities: swimming, cycling and running. I hope I can visit you in the next holiday. I
can’t wait to meet you.
Your best friend,
Lisa
