Dear Wang Lin，
I'm sorry to know that you are facing some problems．It's naturally for someone to meet with different kind of problems when he first studies abroad．The language problem was the first one．But I'm sure you'll soon be able to use the language well，so I know you're a quick learner．Being sure to take every possible chance to practice your oral English，that will do good to you．The second problem is usually the change of eating habits．Not everyone can get used for a different diet，so why not to cook meals by yourself？Studying abroad is big challenge to you，but it's really interested．
Best wishes!
                                                            Yours，
                                                            Li Hua．
