Juan Pablo,
I wrote in bold types your mistakes.
In general is a good job, short, right to the point and interesting.
I appreciate that you mix your personal likes with an English task. That's exactly I want you do. In that way English has more sense to you.
Good job.
Bye.

JP,
There are many formal and informal words that you can use.
Withe the example of "Hola, ¿como esta usted? the only formal would be the hello..."hello, How are you?" (that's more formal) saying HI would be informal "Hi, How are you?" ... even more informal would be " Hi, how's it going?"

Apart from that, the formality of a sentence is also given by the entonation you use to say it.

We'll continue talking abot this one in class.. ok?
Bye
