Dear Diary,

I’m writing this at my room. It’s almost midnight and I have to getting up early tomorrow, but I can’t sleep. I’m thinking about my future! E very day, my parents asks me, “What do you want to be when you grow?” The problem is: I don’t know! My mom always says, “Be a doctor!” And she doesn’t understand —to be a doctor, you have to study for a long, long time and that’s not her idea of fun. Also I’m really bad at biology at the school. My dad says, “Be a pilot!” Is he crazy? He knew I hate flying!

Now I’m getting tiring, so I’m going to bed. I can think about my future in bed. I get my best ideas when I’m lain down.

I have known my friend Rebecca for a long time. We firstly met at a friend’s birthday party five years before. We found out that we both liked singing and dancing, so I invited Rebecca over to my place. We listened to the music together and soon bec ame best friends. Three years ago, Rebecca’s parents invited me go on

holiday with them. It is great. We spent three wonderful weeks in a little cottage. Rebecca and I loved walking along the beautifully beach. We took a lot of photos and had a lot of funs. Last year, Rebecca’s father changed her job, and they moved to other town. Since then we haven’t seen each other very much, but we’ve talked in the phone and we’ve written emails to each other.

Dear Joe,

How are you? Thanks to your post —good to know when you’re OK. I’ve got news too. I’m going on holiday next weeks with my brother and Anna, a friend from school. We’re going to stay on a farm with four days! We’re going to look after the animals and doing some horse-riding. I’m sure I’ll love it. You know how crazy I am about the animals! I want to learn all about the cows or the horses.

I hope I will have some times to go walking in the hills, too. Well, right now I’m going to finish homework —lots to do before the holiday! I’ll write to you when I get back to telling you about my holiday.

Yours,

Nadia

People had always been interested in bees. This interest may have begun with the honey what bees make. In the fact, it has been found that people have been eating honey for thousand of years. In the more recently past, people were interested in the way bees made honey. They admired the way bees seemed to working so hard.
