I never kept these bad things in my mind and I didn’t care about others’ thoughts, so I didn’t get into trouble. Later I took acting classes. I thought the classes were the best places for boys who liked making noise. I often went to the movies. I would never go there with others. I would just drive to a theatre alone and spend a lot of time learning how to act.”

Dear Allan,

I’m glad to hear from you. You asked me about my hobby. Now let me tell you something about my hobby.

In fact, I have many hobbies in my daily life, but my favourite is travelling. I have liked travelling since three years ago. I have already travelled to many places by myself or with my parents. By travelling I can broaden my mind. When I visit some different places of interest I can learn a lot about people, places and history.

I think it is fun to travel.

What is your hobby, Allen? Let’s share it together!

Yours,
