gr8student1: Hey cyberfriend! How's life?
cyb3rfr13nd: It's going great! How about you?
gr8student1: Fantastic! Thanks for asking. How was your test yesterday?
cyb3rfr13nd: I think it went pretty well, although some questions were tough. I think I should have studied a bit more.
gr8student1: Well I'm glad that it still went well! Hopefully you'll take this lesson and apply it in the future and study better.
cyb3rfr13nd: Thanks! I'll definitely do that. I appreciate you being positive and supportive!
gr8student1: No problem, friend! It's much better to be positive than to be negative to other people, especially when talking online.
cyb3rfr13nd: You got that right! It's also important to remember good grammar and word usage when writing formal communication online. Kind of like how we are writing right now!
gr8student1: Exactly! I love having great Netiquette!!!

Subject: Missing Class
Dear Mr. Teacher:
I am writing this e-mail to inform you that I will unfortunately be missing class tomorrow. I have been feeling sick lately, and the Doctor told me today that I have strep throat. He wrote me a note to take to you as soon as I can return to school. When I return, I'll meet with you to find out which assignments I missed. In the meantime, I will continue reading our book for class.
I hope all is well!
Sincerely,
U. R. Student
