1. Dear XX,
This is H. Yes, you are right. Congratulations to all of us! Yes I have started to review the course of course. No, I don't keep the notes in the course because everything is in my brain. I don't need to bring anything into the exam hall.

Best Regards,
H

2. Dear Z,
Oh sorry, I didn't check my email 'today', so I think it's too late to send them ower. Of course it's not too demanding, but I think I will not be checking my emails anymore till after the exam. So I guess I just wish you good luck for the exam as well now!

Best Regards,
H

Congratulations indeed on finishing the papers! Regarding the course, I have reviewed it... I did not find it necessary to make any notes, you mean you did?

1. Dear XX.

This is H. Yes, congratulations to both of us! I have yet to review the course as I am still waiting for you to send the notes over. I thought you offered to send me the notes that fine day in lecture that we became so chummy? I'll be waiting! Thanks!

H

2. Dear Z,

Don't be silly. Of course it is not interpreted as too demanding. Nothing is too demanding from such a good friend like you. Unfortunately, I only have the banking notes in hard copy and we are not going to be able to see each other before the exam. Wish you good luck with the exam though.

P.S. I might be able to send the notes after the exam is over since I might see you as we leave the exam hall. This won't be interpreted as too late right?

Dear Z,

Don't worry about it. I have all the notes except for the last lecture. I got mine from Dora actually cos she keeps all her lecture notes. Why don't you email her and I am sure she will give them to you. Also, it would be great if you can send me the notes for the last lecture once you get them from her.

Good luck for the exams! We should meet for a drink afterwards.

Take care
H

1. All the papers are done today right... not. I haven't handed up my paper. Yes, I do keep notes for the course, but I need it for the paper.

2. Hi Z, there's no need to aplogise. I don't know what you're talking about.
