I am / I'm not especially / exactly overjoyed / thrilled / over the moon about this / the idea / it
PWN-Oxford suggests 'I'm not exactly thrilled / overjoyed about it'. The options I give above follow this pattern, but become less formal moving from left to right, so that the most formal combination produced is 'I am not especially overjoyed about this' and the least formal 'I'm not exactly over the moon about it'. 'Especially' can be replaced with 'particularly' too, as a more formal option, but the character limit prevented me adding this.

"I'm not looking forward to it"
W tym kontekście. Albo "It's not something I'm (really/particularly) looking forward to."
Przykład: "My DD is very close to her daddy and I know she will be heartbroken to hear that her daddy will be moving far away from us for two years and we won't be going with him. I am not looking forward to this conversation." http://forums.bigfishgames.com/posts/list/172767.page
