       Dear Kurdis,
                Hello there! How are you? I'm fine. Guess what? I will be celebrating my twelfth
       birthday on the 22nd of next month. My parents are planning to hold a party for me at
       about 4 o'clock on that day. I can't tell you how excited I am! I can't wait for that day
       to come!
                 My parents have given me permission to invite my friends over. l hope you'll be
       able to come to my party. I'm inviting my friends, some of my neighbours and many of
       my school friends as well. I am sure all of us will enjoy ourselves very much.
                 There'll be a lot of things to eat and games to play. My mother will be preparing
       her very own mouth-watering curries, Penang Laksa, fried noodles and rice, chicken
       curry sandwiches, curry-puffs, cookies and jellies. Of course, there'll also be a
       birthday cake! As for the games, I have something special planned for us. Come to the
       party and find out what it is!
                   I do hope that you will come. Ratna would love to see Salmi at the party, too.
       Don't forget to invite Uncle Jenal and aunty Matimah. Please let me know whether you
       and your family can make it. I shall be waiting for your reply. Please don't disappoint,
       me  after all, you are my very close relative!
                                                                                                    Yours sincerely,
                                                                                                        Bustaman
