Sure, I have to work hard but I hope it;ll help me in my future. So I completely agree with your parents that you should work harder. And not only with the subjects you like but with all the rest as well.Sorry for my short letter, but I really have to go now. I have some extra classes and my teachers are waiting for me. Write back as soon as you can, I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon. Hope it'll get better with your studies.
