Hi Fang Lan,
How's your life in Canada I hope you have adapted well to the new situation and are enjoying your new school.
I love my new senior secondary school. It's much bigger than my junior secondary school and there's a huge gym! Do you remember Xie Zijun Guess what — we are in the same school! It's always good to have a friend, right Life in senior secondary school is very different from that in junior secondary school! You know, we don't have a fixed classroom! We go to different classes for different subjects and also for different levels. I'm in the same class with Zijun for English and physics but in different classes for Chinese and maths.
We also have many different clubs after class. You know, 1 like dancing, so I'm in the Dancing Club. At the moment, we meet twice a week and we're preparing to attend a competition. I think my new school gives me a chance to become a different person and I like the "new me".
Well, I must go now. I've got a presentation tomorrow and I need to finish my slides. I look forward to hearing all about what's new with you soon.
All the best!
Wang Ying
