Correct or incorrect sentences no. 1

Howdy,

Here's a pair of sentences. In my opinion they're incorrect but I can't come up with a decent way to correct them...
  1. You're waiting for the day when I leave.
  2. I always translate your MSN descriptions when they're in Chinese.

  3. If you were using your PC we could chat using a microphone.


    Thanks

Dunno... The first one sounds awkward to me...

Hi,

It's not elegant, but it's not wrong.

Thanks,

Don't you think that when sounds a bit out of place there? Wouldn't it be better to say:

You're waiting for the day I leave.

Hi,

Both versions are OK.

What concerns you about #2 and #3?

well, here I'm not sure if the word description is appropriate... many instant messengers offer their users to express their mood or what they are currently doing in a short sentence that everyone can see... what do we call it?
