Dear Sigmund Friend

I am a Grade 9 student. I have   21   problem, and I do not know how to deal   22  it.

I have a lot of homework every day, and I have no choice   23    to do it. I often stay up late to complete   24   , and then feel tired the next day.

Sometimes, I want to   25   to do so much work, but usually I just accept it. I understand that it is important to do my homework and   26    on time. However, I hardly have any spare time for my hobbies   27   playing volleyball and ping-pong. I really feel bad about that. I often doubt whether it is worth   28    so hard.

I am   29   a holiday without homework so that I can relax and have some time for my hobbies. What should I do? Can you offer me some suggestions? They will be of great value to me. I hope to    30    you soon.

Best wishes
