Dear Urvi
How are you? How are you spending your vacation? We did not go out anywhere this year, so I’m really bored. All I do is watch television or surf the internet. Internet, no doubt, is one of the best inventions made so far, yet whole day I cannot sit using the Internet. Also sometimes it takes up too much time. It is a very cheap source of entertainment but I miss playing games with my friends on the ground. It would be great if you come to my place for a few days if you haven’t planned anything for the vacation. We both can play together, reading story books rather than getting bored.
Do write back soon. Looking forward to hearing from you.
With love
Yours lovingly
