    Subject: Hi from Spain

    Hi Claudia!
    Thanks for your email.
    Of course I can tell you abouT Chiristelle, because she is my sister-in-law.
    She's 21, and she's studying Psychology.  She likes going out with my brother and their friends all Fridays.  She likes going to he cinema and listenning to music.  She loves animals but actually she doesn't have any pet (the last dog died last August).  She's quite introvert, she likes staying a lot of time in her bedroom.  She's very independent and responsible.

    She's working in a special center with children (she's incredibly hard-working).  Now, she lives with my brother, near her family.  I think Christelle is very polite and you and your family will get on well with her.
    Let me know if you need more information about her.
    Love
    Alba

    bad habits

    What are your bad habits? I think everyone has bad habits. Not everyone agrees on what bad habits are. Some smokers don’t think smoking is a bad habit. Young people don’t think listening to loud music on the train is a bad habit. In Japan, slurping your noodles is a sign that you enjoy your food, but making a noise while eating in England is not good. Have you ever tried to break your bad habits? I have quit smoking and have stopped leaving things laying around the house. I wish other people would stop their bad habits. I get annoyed when people are late for meetings or talk loudly on their phones in public. I also think many motorists need to think about their driving habits. Perhaps I should point out their bad habits.
