Subject Hello from Nick!
Hi Xiao Wei,
Thanks for your last message.It was great to hear from you,and I can't wait to meet you.
I hope you will know me from my photo when I arrive at the airport.I'm short with small bright eyes.I'll wear jeans and a T-shirt for the journey.I've got your photo——you look handsome.I'm sure we'll find each other!
Thanks for telling me about your hobbies.You sound just like me!I love reading.I spend a lot of time on novels but science books are my favourite.I enjoy sports as well,especially ball games.Sometimes I get low marks at school,and I feel sad.I know I should work harder.
You asked me,"How do you feel about coming to China?"Well,I feel nervous when I speak Chinese,but I'll be fine in a few days.I love making friends and I'm not shy when I'm with strangers.I'm always sorry when I don't know how to do things in the right way,so please help me when I'm with you.Oh,I can't tell you how excited I am about going to China!
