Dear Jane,
I hope you are doing fine. We have not been in touch for a while. I dont know anything about you sinced you moved back to Oregon. Anyway, this letter is to tell you about what I am planning these days and also to tell you about some changes in my life this coming months.
One of my biggest dreams might come true this year. Finally, I’ll see some of my artwork in a gallery. I interviewed with a small place downtown, and they are excited about showing my pieces. They plan to give me space for two months this fall, Isn’t that great?
You know that I usually avoid exercising-but I’ve decided to start taking spinning. It’s not like jogging or karate, so I don’t think I’ll mind going to class once a week. I’m actually looking forward to it!
I planned to visit you last year, but that never happened. I can’t imagine more time going by without seeing each other. When would be a good time for me to visit?
And what about you? Write when you can. Let me know what your dreams and plans are!
Love,
Jesús.

Hi Emmanuel, my favorite cousin jeje:
How are you? I hope that you are very well.
I’m really happy because this semester is a good time for me.
An important plan for me now, is to get my exchange to Spain, since January at June 2009, I don’t know now if this trip is possible and sure for me because I need talking with my parents. And the money is very important but I don’t have jeje
I would like to visit some countries in Europe but some times I think that this is a very distant dream.
I hope any day can to buy a Malibu car, this is my favorite car’s model but first I going to finish my major by working and have money for to buy my first and perfect car.
I plan working the next vacations in Leon, in oil’s factory, my older sister gets this job for me, and I’m really happy.
This semester I have an important plan for me, is to do exercise, and I go running every afternoon.
I hope to get my degree in a any more time.
What about you? Write me when you have a little free time. Tell me about your plans!
See you!
I love you

Dear Mother:
I seize this opportunity to write you this letter with some few words, but before I can say a word I want to know your present condition of health. I hope the family, and you, are all well. I’m also very well, as are all my family in the city.
Perhaps you know, Mother, how it is with city life. It is not easy. Everything you need eat well. It is not the same as the village. Despite its difficulties, people manage to survive.
Now Mother, the essential of this letter concerns the proposition you made for me to take a second wife. Dear Mother, you know I never discourage you, and don’t want anything to make you sad. I always try to make you happy and respect your propositions. But for this matter of becoming familiar, Mother, I don’t think our ideas will marry each other.
I know your complaints, Mother: according to our rural way of life the elder of a family must of course be friendly. That will give to his mother honor, respect, and more consideration.
But Mother, try to understand me and excuse me. In this stage of life, it is a big problem to have two projects. Don’t you see that, in the rural area, it is easy to feed more than five months. It’s not the same in the city.
I hope finish the university in six months ,perhaps in December and seize the timing of find some job, but I wish travel a USA ,for meet much girls and in the future to marry.
So dear mother, without hiding anything from you, I can’t be a happy. I know it’s painful to say, or to disobey, but try to understand.
Dear mother, tell these in laws that I obey and respect their responsibility, but for this matter, I can’t do it. A man must think for what is going to come tomorrow.
So dear Mother, I think you have understood my opinion and you accept my excuse. Extend my greetings to mothers, brothers, sisters, and all the elders of the village. I am wishing them long life, long stay, good understanding, and prosperity.
Your faithful son, ivan.

Hello Paloma!
How are you? We have not seen in a long time. I hope you are fine. I want to know what you are doing these days. My family is fine and we’re happy. And how is your family? I hope they’re fine.
Well, I finished working my school project and I start knowing a new project, I’m interested in that. I will start working in this project in the next month. The project is about a medical advance in the Secretariat of Health of the State of Guanajuato and the government will invert near 183 millions of pesos. My work in this project with other partners is to research the technology and to develop the software. Do you have a project too?
And as you know I’m still studying in the university. I expect to graduate and to get my degree in the next year. I think that maybe you are in the second semester of Graphic Design. Is that true?
Well, write me back when you can and tell me about your plans and dreams. I love you.
