Dear Sam, How are you? Thanks a million for taking care of my house and my pet

while

I was away for a week. I really appreciate your help. It is only because you offered to help, I was able to plan

this

trip with my family. As you know, my cat is high maintenance and she doesn't like to have strangers around;

thus

, leaving her with a pet sitter was not an option.

Also

, my plants would have died if they were left unattended for a week. I was wondering if you spent on any maintenance items for my house,

such

as cat food, milk, or water. If you did, please let me know ASAP, and I'll pay it back. Let's catch up

this

weekend at our old spot for coffee so I can thank you in person. I'll bring my cat along as she seems to be in awe of you. See you soon! Warm wishes, Akshita

For many , shopping malls are great places to spend their leisure time and meet others . People , however, in the past mostly visited shopping malls when necessary . To what extent do you think this is a negative trend?
Shopping malls have become the go-to place for many people these days, while previously they would only step into a mall to do some shopping. This essay strongly disagrees that it is a negative trend because it actually saves a lot of time to do a lot of different things, including shopping, and meeting people under one roof, and these places are safe to do it.

Although some individuals are of the opinion that the people who are professional should work in the country where they had this opportunity to learn and progress, there are other people who they suppose, they should not limit.

Children are now facing educational, social, and commercial pressures. What are the causes of these pressures? What measures can be taken to reduce them?
The fact that currently students are pressurised in every possible spectrum of their lives by various factors such as education, social and commercial. And this is mainly because of constant comparison. They are made to be a part of the rat race willing or unwilling by their parents, schools and peers. The essay below delves into this phenomenon and highlights the reasons that give rise to it and the correct measures to deal with it.
