A Letter of Complaint

Hello, All.

Here is your blog topic:

Write a letter of complaint. Be sure to use the format I showed you on Thursday.

See you at Luiz's place tonight, and Tony's place tomorrow!

Finally!

Hello All,

Apologies for the lateness. I wasn't able to get onto the blog till now. I hope you all are able to get on without any problems.

On Friday, I had asked you to write about dating practices in your country. Do people hook up the same as in Canada? What about living together and getting married?

Thank you for your patience.

"1984"

Hello All,

You've been reading "1984", and I would like to know what you think of Winston and Julia's romance. What makes it strange or beautiful or ugly to you? How is their relationship 'a political act', as Orwell describes it?

I look forward to your comments.

Bye for now,

Carol

What do you really think?

Hello All,

I hope you are recovering nicely from the test.

Yesterday, you all participated in two very interesting debates, and just to remind you, here are the topics:

1. Marijuana is good business.
2. Gay marriage should be legalized everywhere.

Now, the key to successful debating is using logical arguments to prove your points. Some of you had to argue against your true feelings on marijuana and gay marriage in order to win. It was a challenge, but you met it with great aplomb.

But now, I want to know, what are your real opinions on these subjects? I will be fascinated to read what you write. Don't hold back!

Talk to you soon,

Carol
