A wedding to remember

Dear Pabla,

Like I told you last week, I was invited to Beyoncé and Jay-Z´s wedding. So I´m going to tell you some things about the big day.

The bride was dressed in hawaiian clothes: coconuts over her tits and a skirt made of palm leaves. The groom was dressed in a green hawaiian skirt, a white suitjacket and a hat. They were so funny and gorgeous.

They arrived on water skiis to the beach. During the ceremony a group of musicians played typical hawaiian music with ukeleles. After that, some guests gave us a surprise hula dance. At night, there was a DJ and we danced like teenagers all night.

As for the food, there was a lot of yummy food like jellyfish, every type of shellfish and an enormous cake.

As the bride and groom are famous, there were some important guests, for example Kim Kardashian, Rihanna, Leonardo Dicaprio... They were dressed very elegantly, just like the rest of the guests.

You'll never believe who I saw!!! Pedro was there with a new girlfriend on his arm. They make a lovely couple but when I spoke to his girlfriend, she was a bit standoffish. Apart from that, the wedding was great and I enjoyed myself so much.

Kisses,
Adriana.

My bestfriend's wedding

Dear Lupa, 

Hi, I need to tell you how Cris' wedding was. First of all, everything was alright, the guests were so sweet and the groom was nice too. 

The ceremony was in a restaurant near the beach, next to the pub where we met last Saturday. The food wasn’t anything special, but what made it so much fun was the vibe, which was definitely set by the bride and groom, they were dancing until the dawn.

She bride looked  very pretty. She was black hair with very dark eyes and an incredible intelligence. I talked with her for a moment and she looked very happy.

Yes that was a typical weddingand there were lots of people.

In my opinion it was de best wedding in the world and I had fun with everybody.

My cousin's wedding

One of the most memorable wedding ceremonies that I attended and enjoyed was my cousin Ruby's wedding. It was in the year 2007 and I was 21 years old at that time.

My cousin Ruby got married and she was the daughter of my eldest maternal uncle. Among our cousins she was the eldest and she was 24 years old when she got married to a doctor. I was at the wedding from the very beginning: I was even there when the bride left her father-in-law's house. It was a typical wedding that followed the general traditions and customs.

The whole house was decorated, we celebrated for 3 days, lots of relatives and neighbours came to congratulate the bride and they brought some gifts for her as well. The celebration began fin the morning when my sister sat for her bridal makeover. She was making such a fuss over it, saying that her handbag was not properly matching her shoes and the eye make up was too loud and her hair was not properly done. But at end of it all she was indeed looking very beautiful.

In the evening all the relatives came over and house looked like a sea of colours. Everybody was so well dressed and looking so pretty, wearing new and traditional dresses. They enjoyed, sang and danced and everyone cried when the bride left the house.

When everybody left and the house was quiet, the elders said a prayer of thanks for the happy ending of the ceremony. And we the youngsters came up with the resolution that we will stay with our parents after marriage to which all the elders laughed out in unison and we knew that the air of sadness was lifted and the occasion was ending in happiness.

MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING

One of the most memorable wedding ceremonies that I attended and enjoyed was my friend Pablo's on a picturesque island in the Pacific Ocean. I have  known Pablo since I met him at secondary school in Mugardos. It was in the year 2036 and I was 35 years old at that time. I can recall that it was mid-summer and I took 6 days leave from my job to attend.

 I was at the wedding from the very beginning: even when the bride left her parents-in-law's house. The whole island was decorated,and the celebration was  five days long, lots of relatives and neighbours came to congratulate the bride and they brought some gifts for her as well. The host prepared several delicious dishes and sweets and everyone wore new  dresses. Everyone enjoyed, sang and danced, the whole event was recorded and everyone cried when the bride left the house in Texas. The bride looked  very pretty. She was black hair with very dark eyes and an incredible intelligence. I talked with her for a moment and she looked very happy.

Yes that was a typical weddingand there were lots of people.

Oh and at the ending of the night I met an old friend that I hadn't seen since I was at the university. 

 I will never forget that ceremony!

My friends wedding

Hello, my name is Begoña. Last week I went to my best friend's wedding. Sara got married to Alex.
When I arrived at the wedding I saw Sara, I think she's the most beautiful bride that ever seen in my life. She wore a long white dress with pearls. And she wore a heardress.
Her wedding was in Ares, in a big garden, next to her house. They got married in the court.
In my opinion it was very emotional. I cried a lot when Sara said "Yes, I do"
When the ceremony finished , we went to the dinner. For my it was a bad menu because I don't like shellfish but the desserts were very delicious. They were chocolate. When Sara had to give the bouquet of rouses, she came towards  me and and gave me the bouquet.
We had just eaten and started the party. I danced a lot with  my friends from University.
In my opinion it was de best wedding in the world and I had fun with everybody.

My friend´s wedding By: Noe Calvo

Dear Eli:

It’s been so long since we last spoke. Last summer I went to Cris’ wedding and I was very surprised that you weren’t there. What happened to you?

You know, Cris and Jace Herondale had been going out together for a few months and they thought it was time to take the next step in their lives.

It was the best event I’ve ever been invited to. The bride’s dress was GOLD and the bridesmaids´ were black, because the colour scheme was gold and black. It was a very sunny day so the ceremony took place on the beach and there were a lot of tropical flowers.

The party was in the Pandemoinum club, the most famous place in the town. The food was amazing because Arguiñano and Ferrán Adriá made the menu. There was live music, Cris’ favourite group was playing all night. An artist was doing cartoons of all of the guests. We celebreted for four days.And the best of all, I caught the bride’s bouquet, so I hope invite you to my future wedding soon.

With love, Noe.

My friend's wedding

Hello Miguel,
Last weekend I went to Alberto and Begoña's wedding. They got married on a beautiful beach in Hawaii.
The bride was the brightest I ever saw because she was wearing a dress with a very long train and a fantastic veil wich was made by hand. She also had her hair in a bun.
For mem the husband could have been better dressed but he's the perfect partner.
The food was the best thing about the day because the menu was fantastic. There were a lot of delicious starters and fantastic desserts.
What made it so much fun was the vibe, There was very good music because the DJ was Evaristo.
It was the best wedding in the world!

My CHristmas Holidays BY NOE CALVO

     Hi my dear lover Miguel,
I don't care about your holidays, I want to explain you mine because I'm very sad, cause this Christmas was terrible to me.
First of all, I woke up with my hair curly again like Krusty the Clown, I tried to get it straight again, but I couldn't and then I screamed. Suddenly I woke up in the real life because it was a terrible nightmare, the worst ever. On December 22th I watched the whole program of the lottery in the theatre, I had to bear for 4 hours children singing "Mil euroooooooos" like if they were castrated and I just won a participation of 1 euro of a ticket, so I won 5 euros, but the ticket for the theatre costed 6 euros, so I lost 1 of the theatre and another one of the coffe. At least I climbed on television because I thought I had won but I didn't checked well the ticket, so I was wrong.
 But It was not the worst, on Christmas Eve I was walking with a box full of marzipanes and a gipsy vagabond stole it. I tried to get it back, but he called his 50.000 cousins and they all appeared with razor, and they tried to puncture me with syringe. On New Year's Eve I didn have a dress, so I went out dressed with a potato bag. The gipsy family saw me and they felt sorry, so they gave me back the marzipanes
On January 5th I went to have a shower but the curtain shower was not there. Later I warched the the Three Wise Man Ride in Madrid and I saw Melchor with my shower curtain because Manuela Carmena stole it from my house. I will never forgive you, Manuela Carmena.
Goodbye,
Noe

How I spent the Christmas Holidays...

Hi Pablo ! I'm glad to hear news about you. These Christmas Holidays were the best holidays that I've never had. I finished the school one week after Christmas Eve, and on the 22 th of December I took the train to Chaves (Portugal) to spend the Christmas Eve with my dad's family. I stayed in Portugal for six days. In Portugal I spent my time  learning portuguese, I also visited Lisboa and the tower of Belém. On the 30 th of December I returned to my town, I wanted spent the last day of the year with my near family and my friends. The New Year's began with a terrible headache because on the previous night I had an incredible party.

My Christmas Holiday BY MIGUEL PEREIRA

         Hi Brais,
It was great to hear from you. I hope you had a very good Christmas. It was my best Christmas, I slept for 12 hours every day, it was fantastic! It all started on December 21st, I went to Roquetas del Mar and I bought two lottery tickets, one for the Christmas Lottery and the other for the Child Lottery. The next day I was watching TV and the news began, the newsreader said that I had won the lottery and the prize winnings were 400.000€, it was the best new I had ever received, so I went check my ticket but I coldn't find it, ir was unbelivable, I was poor again! I tried to kill myself, but my balcony is in a first floor and I didn't die. The next I remember after jumping from the balcony was me on the hospital on December 24th at 11pm, luckily I could eat turkey.
In New Year's Eve I choked with a grape and I went back to the hospital. I could leave on January 5th, the next day I was watching Tv and I saw the news, and I won the Child Lottery, 200.000 euros I went right to get the money. Finally I won just 105.000 euros because of Hacienda. But I'm still happy! I hope you had also won something in the lottery
      
     Kisses from Roquetas del Mar

Dear Sara,

Hi Sara,
I was great to hear from you. It sounds like you had a fantastic Christmas with your family and your boyfriend.
My Christmas holiday was very bad because I was ill the first week or holidays, and my sister didn´t come home.
On Christmas morning I helped my mum to cook the shrimps because all my family had dinner in my house.
On New Year's Day I went to a party in Ares, I drank a lot and the next day I didn't remember anything about my night.
Definitely my New Year's Resolution is it stop drinking alcohol for good.
See you soon,
Begoña.

How I spent the Christmas Holidays!

Hi, Adan! It was great to hear from you. My Christmas holidays weren´t better than yours! In fact, I had low key holidays. The most fortunate thing was that my brother Angel, who´s doing a master in Kansas (USA ) came home for a few weeks.

He came with lot of gifts to all our family. For example, he bought an English book for me, even a T-Shirt with a jayhawk, the emblem of the KU (Kansas University). He´s working as a teacher and he brought a lot of experience and funny stories about his students. He´s teaching Spanish.

We didn´t go out during our holidays, so we stayed in Mugardos with the rest of our family. WE went to the cinema because we wanted to see the new Star Wars film. I´m glad about the gifts. Angel and I bought a new mobile phone to my mum! She was very happy. Then, my mum gave to me one drawing with a frame. Now it´s in my bedroom.

I met my friends to celebrate a birthday party . After New Year´s Day, we stayed together watching TV shows. Actually,they  were quite holidays, but I don´t complain!

Speak to you soon,

Pablo.

My Christmas Holidays

Dear Alberto,

It was great to hear from you. I hope you and your family are well and that you had a nice Christmas. My holidays were great. But, they weren't perfect. You know that I love travelling, but I couldn't do it because I spent all my savings in organising the New Year's Eve. (I bougth new clothes, the ticket for the pub, the food...). I spent my holidays going out with my friends and my boyfriend, and also sleepping.

Christmas Day was a normal day for me. I had lunch with my family and then I went out for a walk with my dogs and my uncle. I'm very pleased with the presents of my boyfriend and my family.

On New Year's Eve evening, I went to the hairdressing for the night. Then, my family came to my house and we watched the New Year's Eve celebrations on TV before bringing in the bells. Then, I wore my sequins dress, my high heels, I put my make up and I went to the pub with my boyfriend and our friends to celebrate the New Year. We danced until the early hours! At eight o'clock we went to drink some chocolate with churros. I was exausted! Then, I went to my bed and I was sleepping for two days.

I spent my last day of holidays in the sales. I went to Marineda City, in A Coruña, and I spent a lot of money on clothes and jewelry. I had fun because I love going shopping!

And, that is all about my holidays. They were great. I hope that you tell me about your holidays. I see you back to school.

Speak to you soon.

Hugs and kisses

Cris

Hi Wendy,

How is everything going? I hope you and your family are well. I heard that you had a nice Christmas, unfortunately, my Christmas was awful. I thought that my marks from high school were not bad, but when I arrived home... my parents were dissapointed and so furious. They shouted at me a lot and then they told me that I won't get christmas presents. The next day, they had a serious conversation with me about my studies and they forgave me.

On Christmas Eve, I was so excited to see all my family, especially my aunt because I hadn't seen her for ages, but that evening, my father told me that she couldn't come here because of her job. I cried for hours. The Christmas dinner wasn't the same without some family.

Here, we don't celebrate Boxing day like you, so I only studied.

Over the next few days I was a little nervous because I didn't have a dress for New Year's Day, but finally, with a miracle, I found one.

On New Year's Eve, I went shopping with my mother for our celebration that night, and the rest of the day, I helped her to cook the dinner.
After eating the grapes, I went out with my friends. Everything was good until I saw my boyfriend kissing another girl... I was so angry and I shouted at him a lot, but finally I decided to wait until the next day to talk with him and end our relationship. I spent the rest of the night dancing with my friends.

They weren't good holidays but I learnt some important things.

See you soon

Adriana

My Christmas holidays

     Hi Emily! Great to hear from you. How are things? How about your Christmas Holidays? As for me... I can only say great things, although I didn't do anything new. 

     The firsts days, I stayed at home, doing nothing, because nobody nwanted to come out.

     Christmas Eve was so special because I saw my cousin who was working in Barcelona and we hadn't seen him for a year. On Christmas Day we were with all the family and it was really low key.

    New Year's Day was blast, at night I had dinner with family again, and then me and my friends went out for an incredible night. I  cannot understand how I  could endure my high heels all night. 

    I spent the next few days with friends searching bargains in th sales and crying because we had to return to school.

           Speak to you soon, 

hugs and kisses

Marta.

Hi Begoña,
It was great to hear from you. I'm sorry that your holidays were worst, because I had a good time at my Christmas holidays.
 On Christmas Eve I were dinner with my grandmother and my cousins in Ares and at midnigth I open my presents and give my grandmother her present. On Christmas Day I woke up very late and had a meal with my parents and my little cousins. At night we went out with my friends and gave presents for them.
On New Year's Eve I went to Lugo to a party, it was great! But the next day I was ill.
I wish that you have a good 2016!
See you soon,

On 20th December I went to a shopping centre and I bought a beautiful dress to wear on New Year´s Eve.I bought a present for my boyfriend too.I lost my money but a good person gave me it when she found it.

On Christmas Eve I was with my aunts,uncles,cousins,grandparents and my mum.It was horrible! Many people were shouting,it was stressful.But the food was fantastic.I came home early because my mum wanted to sleep.In the morning I opened my presents.I felt happy!

Most afternoons I stayed with my boyfriend. He gave me a present,obviously!

On New Yearś Eve I was with my family.I wanted to go out later wearing my new dress but my mum said no.

2015 was a good year for me,but I think that 2016 will be better.

Hugs and kisses.

Hi Cristina:

It was great to hear from you.It sounds like you had a fantastic Christmas with your family.

My Christmas was good. I spent my holidays with my family.

On Christmas Eve I opened my presents at home before I went to the rest of my family´s house.I  

had dinner with my grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins and my parents. I enjoyed hearing all their news.

New Year´s Eve  was stressful. I went to my aunt´s house and after dinner they all  started to sing and dance. I wanted to come home and sleep.

The next day, my cousins came from Madrid and we stayed together  all weekend . A great way to end the year.

Hugs and kisses.

My Christmas Holidays

Dear Cris,

It was great to hear from you. I hope you and your family are well. I have to tell you how my Xmas holidays were. I don't know where to start! I used to spend my holidays in A Coruña with my mother's family, but this year I spent it at my home in Mugardos.

On Christmas Eve, I had a low key day at home watching films and I had dinner at my grandmother's house with all my father's family.

On Christmas Day I went to A Crouña to have lunch and spend the evening with my mother's family, there we had lots of fun and I enjoyed it so much because I hardly ever see them.

From Christmas Day to New Year's Eve I spent my free time meeting friends and staying at home watching films or reading.

On New Year's Eve I got ill in the morning, so I couldn't enjoy the day but I had dinner at my grandmother's house in Mugardos and then we ate the twelve grapes to celebrate the New Year.

On New Year's Day I got up very early because I had to help my parents in their bar. In the afternoon I met my friends and we went to a bar to have a hot chocolate.

From New Year's Day to 6th of January I spent my time meeting my friends and going to A Coruña to celebrate the New Year and to see my mother's family.

On 6th of January I went to A Coruña because we always spend this day there. I enjoyed exchanging our presents and after that we stuffed our faces.

That's all for now, see you soon!

Alberto Pérez Rey.

Christmas Holidays

         Hi Martín,
It was great to hear from you after all this time. My holidays were great. I went with my family to the town where  we used to live, Viveiro. I was happy to see my old friends again and I also met some new people. The journey was a little bit boring but in  the end it doesn't matter because I really enjoyed seeing all my family again including some of the family who live further away like in Madrid or Seville. I got some presents the same as  last year. I was in Viveiro until the afternoon of New Year's Eve . On Boxing Day we spent all day at  home eating sweets and watching Premier League  football matches  and talking a lot. On the   6th January I received some presents and finally I went back to school.

Speak to you soon,
Brais.

Christmas Holidays. Alba Brage

Dear Raquel,

It was great to hear from you. I hope you and your family are well and that you had a fantastic holiday. My holidays were wonderful. I did a lot of things: met friends, went to a party and spent time with my family.

As you know, on Christmas Eve I went to my grandma's house. I had dinner with my parents and my dad's family. I received a lot of presents: a mobile phone, clothes, chocolates... but the best was my new cousin: Antón. He was born on Christmas Day.

On the thirthieth night I had dinner with my mum's family and later I met my boyfriend and some friends. We went to Ares and Mugardos for a few drinks. I came home at eight o'clock in the morning New Year's Day. I woke up at half past two and had lunch with my parents and their friends. In the afternoon I went to Rubén's house and we watched a film.

All in all I love my holidays. Friends, family, great moments...

Speak to you soon,

Alba.

How I spent the Christmas Holidays

Hi Alba, it was great to hear from you. It sounds like you had a fantastic Christmas with your family. Those days I didn't travel anywhere, but my holidays were really great because my family came to visit us as they do every year. 

On Christmas Day, my aunt cooked dinner for the whole family and we had a nice meal. I enjoyed hearing all my family's news because I got to know that my cousin is going to get married this year.

As you know, on the thirtieth of December my family came to my house to have dinner and watch the New Year's Eve celebrations on TV. After that, I went to a party with my friends and had some drinks.

The second week of my holiday was low key, I only relaxed and went shopping.

All in all, I think that it was a great holiday because I was with my family and friends and I enjoyed myself a lot.

Speak to you soon,

Raquel.
