Hello, I´m looking for a pen-pal /e-mail-friend and hopefully a future exchange partner. Last term I´had contacted twenty odd secondary schools in Britain with this request and did not get one single reply. But I havent given up as yet , so please excuse my gatecrashing this mailing- list. . My name is Fabian Simon. I´m a 15 year old boy from Tuebingen, which is an old University town in the south-west of Germany. I´m in the 9th form at Wildermuth-grammar school and in my fifth year of English, in my third year of Latin and in my first year of French. My special interests are music, drama, reading and swimming. Apart from taking piano-lessons I play the keybord and the guitar. Together with four classmates I founded a rock band, we´ve been having regular sessions for three years now. My musical tastes range from rock and metal to classic and baroque music. I love reading, with a special interest in fantasy , philosophy and plays and have been a member of a drama group for some time. I love cooking and and baking, except the part of tidying up afterward. I,ve got one elder sister, Kathrin, she is seventeen, a younger sister, called Ann-Marie (12) and a younger brother Christian, who is ten years old . My mother is teaching English and French an my father has been in social work. I woul really like to have a pen- pal or e-mail friend .So, if any subscriber of this list could help me along with useful links and hints, I would be very grateful. Fabian %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
