Hello, I am studying abroad in St Petersburg next year and have to write a short letter to my future host family, and was wondering if you guys would look over it and let me know what mistakes I've made. Thank you!



Здравствуйте!

Меня зовут Сара Перажин. Мне двадцать лет, и я живу в Харрисбурге, в штате Пенсильвания. Я учусь в университете Темпл, на втором курсе, на факултете русского языка.

Я хочу благодарить вас за то, чтобы позволить мне жить с вами, когда я буду в России. Я очень *******, и я буду видеть вас в сентябре!

Искренне ваша,
Сара



OKAY, for those ****'s, I want to say that I am excited, but I'm not sure what word will NOT make me sound anxious, nervous, etc. Also, I'm not sure if it's normal to say "I'll see you in September" in Russian.

I'll probably have to make this longer, and say things about my interests & stuff, but that should be no problem. So, pleaase let me know what I should change here. Especially if things sound weird or inappropriate or something. Thank you!

How about "Я взволнованная том, что я буду видеть вас в сентябре!"?

First, it's взволнована, but it's not the proper word all the same; it's a sort of 'worried', 'disturbed' or something like this. Then, not буду видеть, but увижу (and I think that встречусь с вами is even better).
