It will take us four hours to get there by train. Then we will catch a bus to Chiang Rai. Tuesday, March 28th Our trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains.

Write a letter to him or her, invite him or her to watch a basketball game, apologize to him or her and so on. Once you have a list of things to do, you could choose one of them and try to get your friends back. And when you are worried, don’t be afraid to speak it out. It is not a bad idea to ask someone else for help. You can find someone to talk to, such as your parents, friends teachers and so on. They can give you some advice on how to solve the problems or cool you down. What’s more, try to learn the ways to relax. Going for a run, listening to some quiet music are also good ways to help you relax.
