Hi Ryad!

How are you? A lot has happened since we last saw each other. We’ve moved to Annaba for two months. The good news is that I’ve passed my BEM exam, and now I study at “El^Ibrahim” secondary school. I like it but I have already been in trouble because I hate P.E (physical education).I’m not good at sports, and I don’t understand the rules.

I’ve also got a new friend called Adel. He’s a year older than I am and he’^s really nice. I haven’t visited the most important places in Annaba yet. But I’m thinking of doing that with my friend soon. Next week, we’re going to the theatre^. Adel has already bought the tickets.

Unfortunately, we won’t see each other often. I’ll probably make new friends at my new school. We’ll see each other on holidays. Will you come and visit me in

Annaba? I hope so.

Best wishes, Farid
