TOPIC: You did a summer internship at a big company and you're telling your friend about your time there.

Dear [friend's name],

Hi! What's up? Hope you're fine! Sorry I haven't been in touch but I've been keeping myself busy throughout this summer. How were your holidays in the UK? Bet you had a blast!

Guess what? I was given the opportunity to work at that one big tech company in the city, you know which one I'm talking about! Actually, in summer they offer paid internships for high school students who are interested in programming. Me being me, I took the chance! Unfortunately, we all had to do very basic tasks! It was a great way, though, to learn about all the departments in the company. Of course, we weren't paid much, but it was better than nothing! At least we got a certificate! Cool, right?

What's more, I got to interview the staff and while working, I ended up learning lots of relevant vocabulary in English! However, what I enjoyed most was applying all this knowledge in reality. Wish you'd been there with me! You'd have loved it!

Anyway, must love and leave you, need to get round cleaning my bedroom. You know how messy I am... Don't forget to drop a line or two soon!

Love,

[Your friend]
