Are there any mistakes in these few sentences?

Could you please tell me if there are any mistakes in these sentences?

I was trembling with coldness. My stomach was rumbling. Yet, I still insisted on keeping my promise, waiting for Jolin (a celebrity) in the library. However, after I had been waiting for an hour, Jolin called to tell me that she had left, because they were too many paparazzi in the campus. How could I be not angry?

Great Thanks in Advance.
