Dear Professor Stiner,

Thank you for your message.

Although it's autumn now, but the leaves are

still green in colors and not even fall from the trees,

maybe it's because of the unpredictable weather now adays

in Japan here.

I didn't go to the church eversince I came to

study in Japan. I used to go for sunday school and chapel

when I was back home.

In Japan, it's not a holiday on Christmas day.

And there is no Christmas atmosphere like where I can find

back home. You can see all the Christmas decoration

everywhere and Christmas songs are heard everywhere at

least a month before Christmas. I really miss all these,

infact I am going to spent another lonely and tedious

Christmas here.

Sincerely Yours,

Wong
