tulip festival!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Canadian Tulip Festival its 55-year-old of history. In 2007, the Free International Pavilion were participaring 15 countrys featured by their Embassies . In 2008 they extend the Free International Pavilion to over 25 countries participating and featuring international entertainments.
Countries with Embassies and community groups participating include Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, European Union, Germany, Guatemala, Honduras, Indonesia, Israel, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Morocco, Netherlands, Peru, Philippines, Romania, Russia, Thailand and Turkey.

For me the Tulip Festival was better these year because more countrys participate and was more a multiucultural event and also because of the enterteinments and the shows that each country represent.

Dear Mr. Potvin

The reason for these letter is to ask you for new equipment and funding for the ESL class and for trips in the future.
We need more money for new modern computer for the classroom, also we required more books , and dictionaries, as well more money to trips in the future for the ESL students that involved education and more understanding of english and Canada culture.

Thank you.

a person that I admire

A famous person that I admire is Gandhi because he freee India from the caste system and help India society as well to free India from the British, he also help people call the "untouchable", he change the name to Havidan clas.
He was the first person to attack the caste system, thanks to him the India's contitution made it illegal to consider a person to be untouchable and now those people have the opportunities do education and more employments.

My plants for the summer is expend more time with my family and friends and stay home, go out and visit places that I haven't go in ottawa and try to do new things and keep working hard, as well to prepared to the next year with positive attitude.
