Dear Mely,
I’m sorry, I haven’t written for so long. My family and I have just returned
from an interesting holiday at Lake Maninjau near Padang. The lake was a crater
surrounded by dense forests and rice fileds. We swam in the lake, ate fish from
the lake and enjoyed the cool breezes.
After that, we had a two hour trip to Bukittinggi, a small hill top town
which was clean, cool and friendly. Our trip around the hill took us to the coffee,

shaped like a buffalo’s horn can be seen everywhere.
I really enjoy my vacation. Do come over and have a look sometimes

Love,
Tiara

Dear Diana,
How are you? Hope everything went well with you there. As you know I’ve
been studying in Sydney for three months, and I started to feel more accustomed
to everything I face here. I know this is my best decision I ever made: I learnt a
lot, met so much friendly people, and had a great time! I learned a lot especially

If you have the opportunity to study abroad, I would highly recommend it. If
you have the opportunity, get out of your comfort zone and step into your next
adventure!
Love,
Gani

Butterflies are a type of insect with large and often colorful wings. They start out
as eggs. They lay their eggs on leaves. The eggs hatch into caterpillars with
tabular body. The caterpillar eats leaves, beds, or flowers of plants.

When a caterpillar is full sized, it goes into another stage called chrysalis.
Caterpillars attach themselves to something solid before becoming a chrysalis.
The caterpillar inside the chrysalis changes into a butterfly. Some butterflies make
the change in one week. Some others take years to change.

When the change is complete, the adult butterfly splits the chrysalis. The insect
unfolds its wings and pumps blood and air into then. It spreads out the wings until
they become dry and harder. The beautiful butterfly then flies to get nectar from
flowers. Most butterflies live only for one or two weeks.

kangaroo, the koala and the wombat for instance. The sugar glider is a possum –
very similar to the tupai in Indonesia. It basically lives in trees. It eats leaves and

from tree to tree like a tupai but it can also `sort of fly’ as well. In fact, it glides or
