A friend of yours recently gave you a nice birthday present. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter, – thank her for the present and say why you particularly like it – describe some other presents that you received – explain some of the things you did on your birthday. You should write at least 150 words. You do NOT need to write any addresses. Begin your letter as follows:

Dear Sarah, How are you doing? It's been a long since we

last

met. I am eagerly waiting for our Goa trip in the month of December.

However

, I'm writing

this

letter to thank you for the wonderful birthday present. After receiving it, I was amazed, as, for the longest time, I was planning to buy a smartwatch. I really think that you can read my mind. Since I know you are always thrilled to know what others gifted me,

therefore

, I thought of giving you a brief. My mother gifted me a diamond necklace, and my sister had sent me a gift voucher from my favourite cosmetics brand.

Besides

that, my school friends group have presented a gift hamper with a plethora of things.

This

year, I had spent my special day differently by visiting an orphanage and an old-age home. I really had a great time with them.

Moreover

, I learnt crucial life lessons from them, something, that I will remember forever. Let me know when you have some time. I'll call you. I look forward to meeting you soon. Your Friend, Shreya
