Begin your letter as follows: Dear ________
You should write at least 150 words. You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.
Dear Jessica
I hope you had a good weekend. The last couple of weeks you weren´t on campus were difficult for us. My roommate Kelly is acting like stressed and overwhelmed. I guess she misses her family and friends back home. I did notice that she isn´t eating as usual and the joyful spirit she proclaims it´s been absent recently.
That makes me wonder about finding a way to help her feel better and leave this though time behind. You know, I have been through difficult times as well in the past, and be surrounded by people I love always cheers me up. I´m going to throw a surprise party for her next Saturday. I know how much she likes to dance and play games, so you should bring your cousin Diego, as I recall he is such a good dancer.
The party will be held on Maddison Road 455. Please try to arrive at least fifteen minutes before 9 PM. That way, you will be able to help me with the final arrangements.
Don´t be late.
With love Carlos.
