I love school and have lots of good friends. We do lots of fun things together like parties, ice skating and swimming. My biggest worry is not doing well in my school exams, but I'm working really hard so hopefully I have nothing to worry about. There's so much I (you!) want to do. I hope you've travelled all over the world and seen lots of things and met lots of people. I hope you've visited the Great Wall in China and the pyramids in Egypt, shopped in New York City and in Paris, seen polar bears in Norway and the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. I've just remembered, you always wanted to see elephants in India—I hope you've managed to do that too. I promise myself I'll always try my best and have no regrets. I never want to forget where every step of my life has taken me. Already it seems as if so much has happened. I've moved from primary to junior middle school (about to graduate), been taught to swim and dance (I love ballet dancing), learned to speak Chinese and French, and raised money for those in need by selling old toys and books. I really hope you're happy. I hope you have a successful career that you enjoy doing and look forward to each morning when you wake up. I hope you're surrounded by good friends and family and maybe also have a family of your own. More than anything else, I hope you've enjoyed every single moment so far! Love Linda
