In the blink (眨眼) of an eye, I am in Junior Two. Looking back at the past year, I have changed a lot.
I used to be short, shy and quiet but I’m much taller and more outgoing now. I used to have poor English study results, poor oral English, and often made mistakes. Besides, I didn’t do my homework, which made my teachers and parents angry. Now I have found the right learning ways, such as making foreign friends and speaking more English. I also make fewer and fewer mistakes by keeping an English diary. Now my English is better than before. I used to enjoy playing games on the phone and watching TV. Now I enjoy listening to music and join the school basketball club. If I have time on weekends, I often go to the park to play basketball with my friends.
