Dearest Pal.

Hello! How's life going on there. I hope that you are in good health upon receiving my letter or may be you got suspened "coz" you did not expect that you can receive a letter from me.

But before the world prolong into a line may I ask first you a gretest apology if ever I disturb you rest and relaxation expecially that when you are in concentration of you studying. And at the same time Pal, I greet you pleasant hello. I hope you can enjoing your life there. Pal, maybe you ask to yourself there if were came I know your name. By the pal, I found your name from column of song hit. And then I decide to make this letter for the reason that I want also a friend in other places so don't think any malice here my lettter okey!.

But before I go to further may I introduce first my simple personality to you. Well....... beginning for the love of my parent they got a boy and have a name. My name is Joseph Marcelo Ejercito a fourth year high school student in Manila. Joseph for short. I'm 20 years old now. My heaight is 5'8" tall and 140 lbs. My birthday is coming every 19 of April 1937. Fair complexion under the zodiac sign of Aries . I'm a pure Filipino with little Chinesse blood.

My mother is at home while my father is working as a golddigger.. He's digging golds at the mines. My hobbies is playing ball games reading komiks books, participating in school activities., and of course acting. I also like to listen to folk songs of Perry Como, Pat Boone, Everly Brothers and the Platters. I hate listening to instrumental music because they are always defective. I can't hear the voice of the songer.

As for my school, I think my school likes me a lot. They don't want me to go after 8 years. They told me others could get post graduate degrees after college , they said I can do it here in high school. I only need two more years to complete my Algebra. My families were so happy for me..my father almost suffered a heart attack eveytime I showed him my report cards. Doesn't you think I'm good too?.

My teacher also liked me . whenever she needed something done, she will called me. Like cleaning the board, scrubbing the floor and manning the garbage can. I'm also responsible in drawing conclusion to our laboratory experiments. Last time during our chemistrty class, when we are mixing different chemicals together and she wanted me to taste the result. I concluded that the solution is little bit deadly because I got hospitalized. They agreed.

At the hospital, the lady doctor said that some of my brain cells got burned. I totally disagree with him because I know I didn't set my head on fire nor eat any lighted match. I only drank an acid solution. She laughed at me and told me I was funny. I think her name was Dr. Eloisa. She's cute.

I think I finish also introducing my self to you and may be time is enough already for you to know who I am . Maybe this will be enough for you to guess myself, from now on you can describe my self in your imagination.

Anyway Pal, I 'd like you answer me. Maybe you can send also your personal datas. Please I need you reply!!! I'm sorry for the handwriting, I have speech impediment eh.

Regards to your family circle and especially to you. Take all necessary precautions.

Your new friends,
Just call me Erap.
