Dear my Teacher Paula, Good morning! Through your reply, I could feel your happiness with other teachers last weekend. Meanwhile, I am sorry to hear that teacher Julie's friend passed away because of cancer. I am not sure if the friend is a guy or a girl, but it is too early for that person to pass away. Well, somehow, life is like an empty dream. Changing the topic, I think you have a good relationship with other teachers, and I am sure that you will be happy to go to work every day because of your coworkers. By the way, I will tell you about the story of 'Mad Max.' The time of that movie is the 22nd century, because of a nuclear war, our earth was destroyed. One villain monopolized oil and water that are not enough for people to use, and he is dominating the human beings remaining by those natural resources. One female lead is one of the villain's slaves, and she work out some scheme with a male lead to cope with the villain and escape from hell. The two leads finally escaped from the hell with some women who can deliver a baby, of course, those women had been subordinate to the villain, and they had been only used to deliver a baby for the villain before they got away from the villain. However, the earth is destroyed already, so no matter where they go, they couldn't find a land of hope. In this case, they decided to defeat the villain and conquer the fortress where the villain is dominating now. As their plan, they finally defeated the villain and could have share the only living space in earth with almost all people. What I wrote above is just a simple story. If you have a chance to watch that, I'd like to recommend it to you. My rate of this movie is 8.5 points out of 10. ^^ Anyway, thanks for sharing your last weekend's story, and happy reading! ^^ P.S.: Below are my answers for my homework. I feel a little hard to answer those. ^^;; 1. You shouldn't worry about the exam because you have prepared well and you'll probably find it A PIECE OF CAKE. (d) very easy 2. The trouble with you is that you are a bit selfish and your sole philosophy is to HAVE YOUR CAKE AND EAT IT. (a) expect too much of life 3. When he heard that the necklace had been stolen, HE DROPPED IT LIKE A HOT POTATO. (a) he let it fall from his hands 4. He sits and watches TV all day and has turned into A VERITABLE COUCH POTATO. (c) a very lazy person 5. Thanks to you we're really IN THE SOUP now and I don't honestly know why I ever listen to you. (b) in deep trouble 6.

Hi there, my Student [이름]!

 

A stress-free Tuesday night to us! ^.^

 

To start, I would like to thank you for reading my replies with pleasure.

Hahaha! ^^

 

By the way, Teacher Julie\'s friend is a female.

I really feel sad about her friend.

She is so young to go to heaven, but I know that wherever she is now, she is happy and enjoying.

We will all die.

It\'s just she left earlier than us.

 

Anyway, I am trying to have a good relationship with my co-workers at Power English.

I like being with other people.

Hahaha! ^^

 

Anyhow, thanks for the story.

Now, I can have an idea about the movie you are recommending me to watch.

 

That\'s all for now, but don\'t forget to see the suggestions and corrections below for your writing improvement.

Enjoy your time! ^^

See you tomorrow! ^^,

 

... Teacher Paula ... ^.~

In this case, they decided to defeat the villain and conquer the fortress where the villain is dominating now.
