Subject:My new year holiday

Hi An,

How are you doing?I have to say New Year í my favorite holiday.Of course,Christmas ís wonderful,but I like watching the fireworks displays and having a party with my family in New Year's Eve

When I toasted the New Year with a glass of coke,I made some new yaeer resolutions.I will work hard to keep them.Yo want to know about them,don't you?I will keep my room tidy,start doing exercise and stop eating junk food.I think the hardest resolution is that I will stop eating junk food,but I will try anyway

You told me the New Year holiday in VietNam is called Tet and it arrives around one month after the New Year holiday in England.So remember to tell me about how you celebrate your new year holiday and your resolutions =,if any

As I think about our firendship and how happy it makes me,I want to wish you joy and happiness in the year to coem.Happy New Year!

With love,

Jessica
