This page will be for Megan E. and (student from Mr. Galimberti's class) to have discussions. Hi E-Pal! My name is Megan E. and I am a freshman at Patrick Henry High School in San Diego, California and I am 14 years old. How old are you? In my spare time I play softball and I have played for about 8 years. Do you play any sports? My favorite classes in school are art and Spanish. The other classes that I take are physics, geometry, English, and physical education. Which classes are your favorites and what other classes do you guys take? I have one brother who is 17 years old and no sisters. Do you have any siblings? On the weekends I like to hang out with my friends, go to the movies and go shopping. What do you like to do in your spare time? Please write back, I’m very excited to talk to you. Talk to you soon, Megan = = = =

Hola Megan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm Martina B and I'm a student at Liceo Scientifico "E. Amaldi". I'm a 16 years-old-girl and I live in Bergamo. I've played volleyball since September, because I had stopped playing it when I was 13. So do you play softball...but what is it????? I don't know this sport...one of my friends said me that it's like baseball...right??? At school I take a lot of classes, but the school, in Italy, is different from the American one: here students don't choose the classes they like, but they attend schools with different courses. My school propose scientific courses, but I don't like them: French, English and History classes are my favourites. I love foreign languages. I've got two brothers: Andrea, 12, and Gabriele, 10. I have no sisters, like you. With my brothers I usually get on well, even though sometimes we argue. And you? Do you get on well with your brother??????????? In my spare time I like to hang out with my friends and go to a pub, or something like that; I never go to the disco: I can't dance very well and I don't like too much disco music or house music. I love rock'n'roll!!!!!!!! However I don't play any instrument..what kind of music do you listen?????? I like many films, but my favoutites are: "School of rock" and "The Doors", and many others. Have you ever seen them?????? If I have made any mistakes, could you tell me how to say them better??? I'm very happy to learn something new about you, your country and your language... Talk to you soon, Bye..."let's rock let's rock today"!!!!!!!!! Martina

February 22, 2007 Hi Martina,You play volleyball? I've always wanted to play volleyball but I'm not very good at it. Softball is basically just like baseball, but you use a bigger ball than a baseball and softball is just for girls. I also just made the softball team at my school. Do people play softball where you live? Are you taking both French and English at the same time? My brother and I don't get along very well, we argue a lot of the time. My favorite bands are Fall Out Boy and Panic at the Disco. Have you heard of them? If so, do you like them? I have heard of " School of Rock" but I haven't heard of the others. My few of my favorite movies are "Step Up", "The Devil Wears Prada" and "Failure to Launch". Have you seen any of these movies? Well I'm very excited to be talking to you and learning about your country.Talk to you soon,Megan.
