Dear Peck Kim,

How are you? I am fine. I have just finished my semester examination. I had an enjoyable

learned many things from them.

Do you have any plans for the coming school holidays? If you do not have any plans,
would like to join me for a holiday at my sister’s place in Singapore? Remember, you said
that you have always wanted to visit Singapore. Now is your chance. Since we will be
having a month’s break from school, you may spend a week or more in Singapore.

I intend to leave on November the 15th. That is three days after the holidays begin. If you
are eager, please let me know as soon as possible. I need to inform my sister to let her
