Very lovely essay I have to say:)

here are my suggestions>...well, it's my habbit to give ppl correction explanation 

1. 我写给我姐姐和给说:我爱你!usually in english, verbs should be connected with conjunctions..right?..like here, I wrote her and said, but in Chinese, the word"and"[和] is not used very often,..hm, you better use sentence similar to english "I wrote her saying"> actually, you can also just get rid of "说" in this sentence

2. she studies in reno> she-她, is studying-正在学习, in/at-在, so the translation could be> 她正在雷诺(Reno)上学...as for chinese sentences formation, we usually put it this way> subject+(auxiliary)/preposition+place+main verb..which is a little different from that of english, bt you better get used to it since you are learning a different language:)...let's make a little example> 她在学校读书> she reads books at school> 她-she, 在-at, 学校-school, 读书>reads..see, place is put before main verbs

3...的时候>when...well, it is true that the relevant translation of when is ..的时候, however, we often use a verb ahead of the 的时候 phrase> 读书的时候> (transliteration) read when[when reading, but in Mandarin we say read when]; 玩游戏的时候> play games when(玩游戏=to play games)[when playing games]; 看(see)电影(a movie)的时候>see a movie when>when seeing a movie..so when you wanna make a mandarin sentence containing "的时候", a verb should put ahead of it

4.她回家后> ...sometimes an english word may indicate different mandarin meanings, like the word "when">When she returned home, she told me, it's okay to say 当她回家的时候, but it doesn't sound natural, in mandarin...I think in this context, "when" actually refers to"after returning home", because you have to return home then you will have chances to say something to someone> so here I used the "她回家后" for this translation.....之后=after

5.she is awesome, in mandarin we don't use "是(be)"very often..
