Model Answer 1:
Sending text messages instead of making phone calls is annoying to me, and I 
think it wastes time. But I enjoyed a text message from one of my friends and 
that text message was sent to me marking my birthday. 
The message says that I was born to pressurise them on different issues and 
they want to get relief from the pressures. It also quoted that I shall feel some 
pains as they experience in the next day when I will at college. In fact, the 
friend was wishing my death on my birthday. But I know this was not his actual 
desire rather he composed the text message for me to have some fun with me. 
I know all of my friends and it is true that I put some pressures on them often 
to make the things done, especially the college projects. Most of the time, it is 
me who is responsible completing the college projects though the projects are 
meant to be done in a team. But some of my mischievous friends try to avoid 
the assignments. Then I have to force them to complete the tasks and thus 
being angry (!) one of them has sent the message on my birthday to make me 
aware of the pressures. 
I received the message on my cell phone and it was sent by Michael Steve. 
Steve is one of my closest buddies in the college in Hyderabad in India. I have 
many other friends here and most of them are wicked in nature. They love to 
irritate other people and at times they are also irritated by the others which 
become painful for them. There are different events about such irritations. 
Once they took a boy to a local restaurant to feed and all of them get out of 
the restaurant without paying the bill. The boy had to pay all the bills and was 
greatly shocked. Steve was one of the foreign students studying here and also 
took part in such wicked activities and sometimes I accompanied them as well. 
I received the text message at 12.00am on April 17 in 2016. It was the date 
when I was born in 1996. Interestingly, I did not disclose about my birthday to 
anyone in my college for several reasons. The first and most important thing 
about me is that I am a bit of introvert in nature. Often I dislike meeting or

greeting people without any specific reasons and whenever the works are 
done, I leave them. I also dislike staying outside the home. But when it is about 
my studies or something important for me, I try to do as much hard work as 
possible for me. Often my college for architecture asks my team to have some 
team works and I have to lead the team after the orders from my respectable 
teachers and instructors. So, I put a little pressure to make the things done 
hurriedly and in a perfect manner. Otherwise, I do not have a close interaction 
with them in a regular manner. I was surprised with the SMS that was sent 
marking my birthday as I never shared about this with someone of the team.
If someone else sees the SMS, it will appear that the SMS demands my death. 
It refers that if I die, they man who has sent the SMS will be relieved. He will be 
relieved of some troubles that I cause to him and others. Actually, there are no 
such personal issues found in reality. The SMS has been sent to make fun with 
me. It was entirely funny to me that the students who irritate all the others 
round the day; they are irritated on me for my activities. I also felt good inside 
that they have somehow collected my birth date and made the fun through 
the SMS. The last part of the message indicated that they had some 
arrangements for me and I, in fact, was surprised as they arranged a birthday 
cake for me at the college. I was amazed at their love towards me. But the SMS 
was too funny for me and even today when I check the SMS, I laugh by myself 
every time.
