Hi Zoli! How are you? I'm very well - incredibly well, in fact! Yesterday
was a good day. I was helping my dad in the shop after school
when Lucy, who is a girl from my class, came into the shop.
She's a very confident person and I always feel a bit shy when
she speaks to me. But she was friendly and we chatted for a few
minutes. Then she asked for some washing powder, so I gave her
the washing powder. Then she asked for some toothpaste, so I
gave her some toothpaste. Then one by one she asked for ten
more household items. Finally she said, Actually, I don't want to
buy anything. Do you want to come to the cinema with me
tonight?' She spoke quite quickly, so I didn't hear all the words. I
asked her to repeat. She went a bit red and she wasn't looking at
me, but she repeated her invitation. I was really happy and said,
"Yes, please.' We had a great evening.
Write to me soon!
Carl.

I'll tell you about my worst weekend ever. It was the summer of 2010. My sister and I went to see my grandmother. Everything was fine. My sister spoke impolitely to my grandmother. Grandma wasn't feeling well, but she didn't tell us. Her illness was not noticeable. We stayed there for 2 weeks. I played on my phone and my sister went out with new friends. When we left, I saw my grandmother crying. I was so sorry to leave her.
After 3 weeks, my family and I found out that she was ill. She fainted in the store and was taken to the hospital. She was told that she had been seriously ill for at least 7 weeks. I remembered what she looked like when I was with her, but I didn't even think about it.
Midcryu - Midcryu is the largest Continent. It holds most of the Countries of the Night Angel World, and boasts most of the more powerful ones as well. It isn't without it's corruption though, personified by the Sa'kage. Midcryu people vary greatly from country to country. A great many of these people are gifted in the Talent, or magic as it is also called.
Seth - Seth is a chain of Islands. It is ruled by one family, descendants of Solon the Stormrider and his Queen Kaede. Most people here are tan, pirates of sorts. Almost all the population sails, and boasts clan rings in their skin be it ears, cheeks, nose, or anywhere else. The royalty however, does not have these rings. Outcasts have their rings ripped out viciously to mark them permanently as unwelcome. Sethi people also do not harbor the same standards of dress as Midcryu, being mostly naked all the time. The Sethi boast a great understanding of swordsmanship and some even become Master mages. Seth's military is mostly naval, made up of mages, ships, and swordsmen.
Ladesh - Ladesh is a very large, rich Continent. Some say it may even be larger than Midcryu, but no one has ever been able to authenticate this. Ladeshians are dark skinned, and dark haired. Ladesh has a monopoly on silk, a soft fabric that most of the world desires. A majority of Ladeshians are tall and quick, some are quite skilled in magic as well as lances and swords. Ladesh has a medium sized military, made of mages, maja, and swordsmen.
Gandu - Gandu is a small Island that trains the most gifted Healers in all the world. With the Green Mage School in it's borders, most of the Island works night and day to train or serve these very gifted Healers. Gandu people are normal in many ways, tan but not as much as the Sethi. The clothing customs of Gandu are more like lavish Ladesh than Seth, leaning slightly toward the more fancy Midcryu styles. Gandu has barely any military.
