Dear Sarah, Hope this letter finds you in good health. How are you doing? Thank you for the mobile phone that you have ordered for my birthday and I received it yesterday. I loved the shinning metallic blue back case of the phone. The camera quality is excellent and we took many photos during the dinner. The additional RAM and storage space makes the phone perform even better, especially for gaming. My parents bought me new dresses for my birthday, a casual white shirt and blue denim which I always was longing for. I also got a Fasttrack digital watch as a present from my college friends. All our friends and I went to a movie and at night we had a nice dinner party and a large cake with family. I really missed you during the celebration. When you will be back in town? Hope to see you soon. Best Wishes, John
