First, I enjoy hanging out with my friends. Sometimes we meet at my house and then go out. We often go to concerts or the cinema. I also spend a lot of time online checking my emails, chatting with friends and writing my blog. Finally, I love sports and games. I play football in the school team and we practise every Tuesday and Thursday. I also love skateboarding. My favourite game is chess, but I am just a beginner. I hope to learn more about it at the youth club.

Thanks for your letter. I'm writing to tell you what I've done for my fancy dress party. So, I've sent the invitations. I’ve sent 25! I decided to send them online. I've already had 10 replies! I've also chosen what refreshments to have at the party. And I’ve decided about the food. We're going to order pizzas because they're cheap but yummy! I think everyone likes pizza. Finally, I've arranged the music and the games. I've asked friends to bring some of their CDs and video games. I'm very excited! I love parties. They're amazing!

Thanks for your letter. So, you were told to write about gadgets in your technology class. That's interesting. I love gadgets! I use my mobile phone a lot to send text messages and I often use my MP3 player to listen to music when I'm walking to and from school. I often take photos with my phone, too. I don't have a computer but I'd like to because I could use it to chat with my friends. I believe some people use gadgets too much. I think some kids spend too much time playing video games and surfing the Net.

Here I am in Russia! I can't believe it but I'm in Moscow! It's a beautiful city where the people are very polite and generous. The buildings are amazing and there are some great shops. Last night when I went out I visited a fantastic restaurant. It was called Café Puschkin and it was on Tverskoy Bulvar. I went to the restaurant with my friend, Bjorn, and his sister. He invited us because it was his birthday. I had some fish fried in butter and some vegetables. I also had some vanilla ice cream. It was very tasty! I like Russian food!

I love looking fashionable. First, I'd change my clothes. At the moment I wear clothes that aren't very trendy. I think if I wore clothes that were more fashionable, I'd look better. I'd also change my hair. Right now my hair is long and black. I think it'd look great if it was shorter and dyed blond! I might have spikes, too! Finally, I would change my body … but just a little! I think if I come on your programme, I'll be cooler and more fashionable than I am now, and I'll be the best guest you've ever had!

I hope things are going well. Thanks for your letter. I usually watch a lot of TV too! I can't at the moment because I'm studying for my exams. My favourite TV programme is called The X Factor. Have you ever watched it? It is fantastic! I love the groups and some of the singers are really goodlooking! It is on every week (usually Mondays) and I love it! It's a competition where people sing. The best part of the programme is when they choose the winner. It is very exciting! Some of the winners have become very popular and have made CDs. That's cool, isn't it? Write back soon. Take care, Kareem
