SOAL 1 BIMBINGAN ENGLISH OLYMPICS

Hi, there! I’m Charlotte or Cherry, whatever you want to call me. I’m seventeen and living in the south of Edenburg. I’m half French and half Irish. I can speak fluent Scottish.

            I don’t really know what to say about myself. But I play the violin and also the trombone. I want to move to the States, possibly to pursue a career in graphic designs. I know how to use Photoshop, Indesign or illustrator well. Send me an email and get to know me.

Likes               : music, Nando’s, The Hunger Games

Dislike            : people who follow the crowd, ketchup, feet, racism, nail polish.

            I’d like my penfriend to just be someone who I can talk about anything with. I love learning about other people’s lives. You could be from anywhere in the world, a boy or a girl, preferably between the ages 17 and 20. I’d prefer to only email, but if we become good friends, we could exchange some hand-written letters. You can contact me through my ask box or you can email or iMessage me: [e-mail].

 

Much love,

 

Cherry

Hello, my name is Patrice Moon, but you can call me Moon. I’m 18 years old living in San Fransisco. I am attending school full-time for English Education and I am working part time in a healthy grocery store while finishing my studies.

            I like Harry Potter. I’m keen on watching TV: Grey’s Anatomy, Hard Evidence/48 Hours and movies (comedy, romance, action, historic, documentaries), reading (Holly Black, JK Rowling, and much much more), writing (letters, poems, stories, essays), music (almost everything except jazz).

            I dislike scary movies, cockroaches, lizards, the dark, being lonely, mean people, people who judge me, and people who are ignorant.

            Why should you follow me? I believe that everyone needs someone and I try to be that someone to everyone. I created this friendly and safe place to recreate my joys of writing and making friendships.

            I am looking for people to write me, email me, and talk to me in [e-mail] or to send me a fan mail/card/present PO Box 350655 Miami, FL 33135 USA.

 

Best regards,

 

Moon
