Dear Emma,
Thanks for your letter. I was very glad to get it.
As for my family, we are very friendly indeed. We are five: mum, dad, me and two my younger twin-sisters. They are also annoying sometimes like your brother, but I think it is just the matter of their age. You know my mum is a housewife, so she spends most of her time with them. But weekends we spend all together. I like this time because our father always joins us. We usually drive to the country or to the seaside. We have a lot of fun together.
Well, what about you? How do you spend the weekends? Where do you go with your friends or with your brother? Is your brother much younger than you or not? Have you got anything in common with him? Anyway, I want you to get along with him.
Now I must go. Write soon.
Best wishes,
Elena
Memory Boost
How do you remember things? Is it easy? Do you have memorization techniques? Let's face it, there are many more things you need to pay attention to in life today than there was even 10 years ago. In fact, we are now expected to remember, learn, and instantly recall nearly 1,000 more pieces of data per day than what our grandparents did 100 years ago.
If your memory could use a boost, these techniques are a way roAxoaFu to increase your abilities. Just remember, there are also phone apps, low-tech note taking, and friendly reminders to help you recall important information when you need it. Memory improving tips are good, but do not try all of these at once. One or two are enough to increase your particular way of learning.
