Writing exercise

I am supposed to be an outgoing girl, but I don’t actually want to. I am not really good at making friends with strangers. The Hongkong guy finally came into the Shanghai office this Monday. I realized I had to make friends with him, but it’s really hard. It doesn’t sound really good that I need to work with him every day, since I’ve already knew we are not suited. It’s time to show my personality!

I am supposed to be an outgoing and social girl, but I don’t actually want to be, as I am not really good at making friends with strangers. The Hongkong guy finally came to / got to / arrived at the Shanghai office this Monday, and I realized I had to make friends with him, but it’s really hard. It doesn’t sound really good that I need to work with him every day, since I’ve already realised we are not suited / our personalities don’t match / he’s not my type of person. It’s time to show my personality!
