Chinese New Year is coming soon!!

Chinese New Year is coming soon,After In 6 more days is Chinese New Year,we use the lunar calendar,so the New Year is not on 1/1/2014.Every year is different .I don't know why we use the lunar calendar,maybe because our ancestors used it, and then circulated it.
Everyday,when I went home after work,I can would see so many people in the street. Many people buy lots of things to welcome the new year,like new close clothes,new shoes,Chinese knot,candy,cookies etc.The street is bustling.

中国的新年差不多来了，6天之后就是中国的新年，我们用的是农历，所以新年不是在2014年1月1日。每一年都不同，我不知道我们为什么要用农历，可能是因为我们祖先使用并流传下来的吧。
我每天下班回家的时候，在路上都可以看到非常多的人。人们买很多东西来迎接新年的到来，例如新衣服，新鞋子，糖果和饼干等。大街上非常热闹。

Mail to a friend

Hey, Jorge
How are you doing?
I don’t have'nt heard from you for in a long time, I believed you were mad at me!..., ha, ha, ha!, don’t worry, it’s a joke!, I know you are really busy lately.
So, tell me What were you up to this weekend?
I had planned that trip with my girlfriend for Saturday. I had everything ready! You know my new camp, backpacks, clothes, canned foods… and so what? It turned out to be just wishful thinking, because it was raining cats and dogs all the day. What a nuisance!, I thought I was going to enjoy being outside and definitely, I was to spend the Saturday catching up with my work.
Suddenly, Pedro phoned me!, you know, he isa camera man. He needed two people as extras for a TV seriouses. I thought: Things like that happen once in the a lifetime!, because I always wanted to work as an actor, and it was an amazing chance!.
I must admit that it was only for a day, however, It was a fantastic day!. I could meet to several successful actors, know how a film is made, even I could speak to the stage director. By the way, you will be able to see me in some chapter of “Red straps” within a few months.
Well, that’s all at the moment!
I hope your to hear news from you as soon as possible.
See you!

it seems to me that you did a good job with your sentences there. i didnt see them wrong.

my main dreams

well, currently I'm working in a call center, answering calls from latin people that are living in the United States, and I one of my goals is to change the campaign I'm working in so that I can answer calls from native english speakers, but i need to have 90 percent of this language.
My dream is to be accepted to work in an ocean cruiser to meet people from all around the world and at the same time make some money to be able to afford my university,
since I'm I was a child I've always wanted to be really fluent at speaking and be able to understand every accent from all around the world.

Forrest Gump

I heard about this movie's information a lot, but I didn't watch it before. Finally, I had a chance to see it.

After I watched this movie, it really inspired me. I really appreciated his attitude of toward doing things, even some boring things, he also could do it again and again and it be better than he did before. I want to follow his steps to do everything perfectly, but I always give up in the middle  halfway. I think I need to make some goals that can prompt me to get it things done.

All in all, this is a good and classic movie. If you have a time, you should watch it, even I did, but and I also wanna want to see it again.

a formal letter

Hello!
It would be interesting to know what native english think about my writing. Does it looks like a natural english letter? :)

You saw an advertisement for a tennis course in England but you have one or two problems and can’t stay the whole course.
Write a letter to the course director. In your letter:
• explain your interest in the course
• describe your problems
• find out if a refund is possible

* * *
Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to apply for the tennis course advertised in a sport magazine last week.
I am fond of tennis and have always wanted to improve my skill in playing this amazing sport game. When I have known found out that my favorite tennis player is going to lead the course, I have made my decision immediately.

However, there is one problem which will not give me any the opportunitiesy to finish the course. I am not a citizen of England and unfortunately, my visa is going to be expired in 2 months. With regard to this I will not be able to attend the 3rd month of the course.

Considering the rule about the necessity to pay the whole course in advance, I would like to know if it is agreeable to get refund a part of the course money for the course because of the mentioned reason.

It would be gratefully appreciated to receive your answer as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully,
Dmitry Petrov

Dolphin Hunts in Taiji

These days, the news of Dolphin hunts in Taiji is are very hot. After I read the news I feel very sad, and the fishermen are so cruel. This activity reminds me that it's like of the massacre carried out by Japanese in China.
The life of Animals is so fragile when they face the Human civilization. In China, last year many finless porpoise died, because of the strikes of the propeller and the pollution of the rivers.
If there is an opportunity, I'd like to be a volunteer in an animal protection program volunteer.
