My First Christmas in Australia
Time goes fast, I have immigrated to Sydney for half a year. And it's my first Christmas in this new country.
Just like the Spring Festival in China, people are really valued the holiday with their family which is once a year. Thay has done a various of things to prepare for the Christmas. They decorate everywhere by using the lovely Christmas decorations. Also, they would send the warm greeting cards to their neighbours which make me feel happy and becoming one of them.
What I need to highly mention is the Boxing Day. People are crazies about purchasing the promotion things which is much cheaper than the normal prices. My husband and I got up at early morning at 4 to avoid the peak hour. Even it's not the first Boxing Day of my husband. We are so excited to go out before daybreak.Some people are even pulling their suitcases to carry the things they bought. After that day, I recognised that shopping would make people feel happy and satisfied. No wonder people would go shopping when they are in a bad mood.

Good job Katie! Remember to make your tenses consistent. Since you are looking back on the day, as in "After that day...", you should use the past tense for the previous sentences

My husband and I got up at early morning at 4:00 in the morning to avoid the peak hour. Even though it was not the first Boxing Day for my husband, we were so excited to go out before daybreak.Some people were even pulling their suitcases to carry the things they bought. After that day, I recognised that shopping could make people feel happy and satisfied. No wonder people sometimes go shopping when they are in a bad mood.
