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

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

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

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.
