Dear Penny ,

Thanks for your letter. It was really good to hear all your news.

My life is a little different usual at the moment. I'm studying very hard because I've got some very important exams in three weeks. I usually play tennis on Thursday evenings, go out with my friends at the weekend. But I'm not going out in the evenings at all at the moment. It's quite boring but I want to go to university next year.

Another thing that is different from usual is that my cousin, Daniel, is here. He's American but he usually lives in Italy with his parents and he speaks very good Italian. He is staying with us at the moment because he is working here in Los Angeles for two months. I'm learning Italian so I'm trying to speak Italian with him as much as possible. Every evening, we speak only Italian. It's good fun but quite hard!

Please write again soon.

Best wishes ,

Scott.
