Letter 1- I sent to him
Date: Sat, 18 Apr 2009

Dear Teck Chuan
Long time no see... Surprise!
I haven't sent you any message since... I don't know when!
I take a optional course named" Computer-Assisted English Learning."
There is an assignment that we have to find a penpal.
So I think of you...
I'm a little lazy to find an appropriate(?) one, and I think it is a good chance to chat with you more~

Have I told you I major in Commercial Design?
I still can't find my real interest now...
It's really a big problem!
Last time we talk, I said I'll send you a sketch.
But I didn't sketch any picture till now = =

I saw you usually on msn these days~ How do you do?
How's your job?
Have you go to other countries after Sri Lanka?
I'm in the storm of mid-term report...
Can't dong-dong-dong( copy that sound...) you...

Will you come to Taiwan recently?
There is a" Hakka Tung Blossom Festival." 桐花季
My mom goes to Miaoli with her sisters every year~ to see tung.
I haven't been there before... sigh = =

Don't know what to say, in English...
Did I use any wrong grammar or word?

Thanks a lot!

Hello 怡帆!
Haha.. That was really a surprise.. A real pleasant one indeed(:
Yes it's been so long since we last talked! Thought you've forgotten about me! Wow such a cool assignment, so happy you thought of me(: .. My honour(:

Yeah I know you're in commercial design, we call it Industrial Design in Singapore.. Can't find your interest? Perhaps you can just continue with the course and think as you move along? I'm sure it'll turn out great(: YES SEND ME MY SKETCH!!! ^_^

My job? Yes did I tell you I'm on internship now? Under an organisation called National Youth Council, which is under the Singapore government. It sponsors overseas community service trips like the one I went to for Sri Lanka.. I may be going Malaysia for an exchange programme in June! Hope I get in! So excited((:
Mid-term report? Means it'll be the holidays after you complete it? When's your holidays? Going anywhere to play? HaHa dong-dong-dong! So cute!

I was thinking of going to Taiwan in July, but it'll be hot right? And all my friends are guys, and they want me to bring them around! So boring! Will you come meet me or go around places with me? (:
When is 桐花季? Taking a train from Taipei to Miaoli is quite near? Can I join you if you go? Haha..

Don't worry you didn't use any wrong word! Perhaps just some little grammatical errors. Practice makes perfect!

要用英文也没关系的阿! (:

Hi Teck Chuan
Commercial design& industrial design are two different departments.
Commercial desgin is about graphic design, animation, and illustration. I don't know about industrial design, maybe is about product design.
You said your friend sleep beside you in army majored in the same department with me. What about his class?

The picture I send you is one of my midterm project.
The subject is to adapt or combine old fairy tales, and develop characters in our fairy tale.
This picture is little red riding hood, ha ha~ She's cute~

You had told me that you are on internship, on msn, in Chinese.
I don't know how to speak in Engish, so I just asked how's your job...
I found a part-time job, in cram school. Uhh... horrible!
Most I do is having phone call to enroll new students.
I don't like to speak to strangers, what I hate most is some people hang up my call!
Uhh...
Uhh...
I told my boss I want to quit, but I were convinced to stay yesterday...
My friends said I'm silly... I think so, too!
What's your suggestion?

After I complete my mid-term report, it still have many works wait for me = =
sigh...

桐花季 is start from April, I don't know to when...
Actually many places have 桐花, just 桐花 bloom in different time in different places.(不同地方的桐花開花時間不太一樣)

I'm going out for my work...
Good bye!
Good luck for me...

Hello..
Oh I didn't know commercial and industrial design were different! Yeah it's about product design.. Yours sound more interesting! But no where near my league (我和藝術完全沒緣分哈哈)...
我那當兵的朋友還沒進大學！和我一樣8月入校...

照片很可愛!!!

Cram school = 補習中心 ?
So is the same job you told me the other time? I think it's not giving you any joy at work! Perhaps you should find something which you be happier doing? 被人掛電話的感覺真的真的很 !@#$%^&*(() ... 我知道！！！ 辛苦你了(:

I checked online, 桐花季 is until 15 May only! So I'd probably miss it): ..

Anyway I was quite hesitant about going to Taiwan because of $$$.. But you are one of the key reasons why I want to go(: So hope you'll be free in July! 做我免費的導遊好嗎？肯定比其他導遊更好更貼心(:

祝你工作愉快.. ^_^ ..
