Dear Nesha

    It was my birthday last week and my family gave me a small party. I invited my best friend to the party. There were about 15 people in the party, including my parents and my twin sister, Alikha. It was a great surptise that my uncle, Wibowo could come too. He works in a small company in Bengkulu, Sumatra.

    There were some presents for me. My parents gave me a new novel, The Casual vacancy by JK Rowling. They knew that I love reading. My sister bought me a Transformers CD game. Both of us like playing video games and we often play together. Anto, my best friend, gave me a CD of a song collection from my favorite singers, Bruno Mars. He really knows my hobby. And I really like the present from my uncle. He didn't give me any books or CDs but he taught me and my friends to play traditional game from Bengkulu. The game has a funny name: Palak Babi. Palak is from the word Kepala or head, in English we say Pig Head. My friends and I played it in the yard. It was very axciting. We were tired because we had to run a lot but we enjoyed the game.

    Do you like play traditional games, Nesha? Please write me back, okay.

Best Regard

Andhika
