Dear Colin,
How are you? I hope you are fine. Thank you very much for sending this beautiful gift, I really liked it, especially it's from you. On the other hand, I celebrated my graduation by having a big party. I invited my family, friends, and my teachers. However, I really wanted you to come to my graduation party, I will send you the photos when it's finished. By the way, how is your new job? I hope you are happy and comfortable with it, and mostly I hope your boss and your co-workers are friendly like you.
Yours,

Dear Sara,
How are you? I hope you are fine. I'm going to spend a day in Al-Ain next Thursday. I really want to visit the museums there, I heard it has lot of historical objects like old cars and weapons. Also, I would like to visit the parks; I saw beautiful pictures of the parks there, with all the green trees and children's playground. I'm going to arrive at 8:00 AM and I will stay at the hotel to take a rest. So, hopefully I can see you afternoon at the museum. I'm so anxious to see you. Take care
Yours,

Dear Sara,
I'm going to study abroad this year in New York, America. I'm going to study English translation because I feel that I need to improve my language. However, I'm very excited to go, but in the same time I'm afraid of loneliness because I don't know anyone there. I hope that I can make new friends from around the world, and know their cultures and traditions. In addition, I can tell them about my own culture and tradition in Saudi Arabia. I hope that I can make it through with this new life; it is good for me to have a new experience.
Yours,
