Letter Writing

Letter

Hi all. I need a big favour and I don't know where else to go... I wrote a letter in english i've double checked it but i need to be 100% sure that it is 100% correct before i give it to my teacher... Can anyone help? this is a copy:

It took me a year. To write this letter. First I saw no sense - how to break through the thousands of letters you recive every day, and through your manager, so you can read it. How to write an interesting introduction, not too controversial, not boring, to encourage further reading? How can I encourage you to read it till the end? Introduction is the worst thing, that's why I have to start in the middle.
Every single word you are reading rihgt now was weight million times. Every sentence was corrected, first in spanish, then in english. The composition changed thousands of times. And all this so you know about my existence for the short time while you are reading this letter. Am I doing it for love? No. You can not fall in love with someone you don't know personally. Iwould say it's fascination. You know, when you are on the subway and you see this person who immediately makes your heart beat faster. You don't know this person and you probably never will but you think about him/her every day. And it doeasn't matter how many partners you have during years, how many times you fall in love, he/she will always be on your mind. And every night you wonder "what if?" I've wondered since the first time I saw you. Or rather, since you looked at me. It's impossible to forget these eyes, these magnetic look which attracted my attention like a magnet, which won't let me forget about you. A few months later I turned on the TV and there were you. I couldn't believe it, I thought "it's all gone Pete Tong" because even if I ever see you again, I can not just come to you and say it all. I would look like a psycho fan. But I am not a fan of your talent, I'm not a fan at all. I just wanna meet the guy who i saw once, before I even knew he was famous... And seeing you on the TV the whole time I wonder - who you really are? I've got millions versions of you in my mind and I dream that one day I'll get to know which one is real. On the other hand, you beeing famous gives me a chance (even if the smallest one) to contact you. I don't count on that I will ever hear from you but I will give you my e-mail address. Maybe one day you will recall a memory of this letter and you'll decide to replay, who knows? I can't risk that I'll miss a chance to get to know you again. I've missed that chance twice already... First time I was too intimidated by you to smile back. Second time was when you came to Spain. I really wanted to be on that meeting but unfortunately I found out too late to get there (I live in Rome). So not giving you my e-mail would be third time. This is one in a million chance but at least i feel that I've done. And it gives me a hope. Hope that maybe you will find me one day. Or that I will finally find someone who helps me forget about you forever...
Well, I think that's pretty much all I wan't to say to you. There was much more but I tried to shorten it a bit... I think it's better to finish now so you don't die of boredom trying to be polite and finish reading.
Oh, one more thing - there was never a begging of this letter and I don't think I will come out with something brilliant so let's make it simple...

xoxo
