Dear Sue,
My life is awful this year because of too much homework. I didn"t get too much at the beginning of
the year, which was great because I had time to be with my friends, play football, listen to music and go
to different places. But things changed really quickly. These days I hardly have enough time in the evening
to finish all my work. At the end of the week I"m tired, depressed(沮丧的) and bored. What"s the use
of homework anyway?
Overworked,
Brighton
