Dear Mrs. Debolt:
Hi, my name is Hailey Nguyen. In this paragraph, I will be talking about the things I enjoy doing. In my spare time, I like to read in quiet places. I mostly read fiction books, because I don't like to read nonfiction books. I love to write long describing stories when the teacher asks me to write a three paragraph story. I absolutely love running. On the track, I like to sprint then run. The coaches always tell everybody to jog then run, but that doesn't work for me. Most of my friends tell me that I should do track because I'm fast, but my mom would not approve. Now that I have talked to you about the things I enjoy, I will talk about my fears.
When I was in preschool, my parents took my brother and I to Vietnam. I was afraid of airplanes at the time, I still am. The reason why I don't like airplanes is because airplanes can crash, are really crowded, and is in the air. I'm afraid of heights. When I was in Vietnam, my mom decided to take me across a bridge that was made out of bamboo sticks tied together. I only took a few steps and turned back. I didn't like the idea of crossing a bridge that was only made of bamboo sticks tied together. Now that I have talked about my fears, I will talk about my experiences with technology.
I am not really good with any type of electronic. I just got my first phone Saturday morning and am still confused on how to use it. My dad gets really frustrated when I can't operate an electronic. I like my phone, but it is really complicated to me. I am not good with computers either. I got my first laptop last year, and I am still trying to operate it. Can you believe that! My mom hates it when I can't do a specific thing she wants me to do on the phone. She wanted me to try to do Face Talk to her friend all the way in China. Of course I can't, because I don't know how. I don't really like doing things on my laptop or phone, because it is complicated and I will probably mess something up. These are my experiences with technology.
Sincerely,
Hailey Nguyen
