Dear Vince,

How are you? I hope you are fine. Please send my regards to father

and mother. I miss you all dearly. I heard that you did not do well in your

recent PMR Trial Examination. Mother phoned me a few days ago and told

me about it. Father and mother are really worried about you spending too

much time on the Internet. So, I am writing this letter to give you some tips on

how to divide your time wisely.

First of all, young man, don't stay up late.Don't burn your midnight oil

chatting on the Internet. Go to bed early. Our body needs at least 8 to 10

hours of sleep everyday.Enough sleep will enable your mind to stay sharp and

productive the next day.Therefore, instead of sleeping around 1 to 2 a.m. in

the morning, call it a night around 10 p.m.

Next, don't spend too much time playing online games. There is

nothing wrong in playing online games but when it affects your studies then

you should put a brake to it.My advice is leave all your online gaming activities

until you have finished your PMR Examination. Focus on your studies first,

you can continue playing once you have finished your examination.

Draft out a study timetable to help you manage your time wisely. On

the timetable allocate one to two hours to surf the Internet. Now, remember,

the Internet contains a lot of useful information for everyone. It can be used to

gain knowledge and to sift through for information useful for your PMR

Examination.

Finally, join some outdoor physical activities rather than just being

holed up in the house in front of your computer the whole day. Go cycling or

walking around the park. Play football or badminton with your friends in the

evenings. Physical activities help keep your body and mind healthy. You need

a healthy body and mind to do well in your PMR Examination.

I wish I could write more but I have stop here for now. I have to

prepare for my next week's final term semester examination. I hope you will

take my advice and mend your ways. I wish you all the best in your PMR

Examination. Hugs and kisses.

Your loving brother,

Dylan
