Journal for London First day... It is my third time to come to London. London is not too far from Manchester , I think. It takes about 2hours and half to get London from Manchester, but if you come to London by train, It won’t be cheap for poor students . So in this time ,I come with my roommate ,who is from china. It is our first trip to travel somewhere . Today, we went to watch the musical ,called the phantom of opera, but I was so sleepy because I slept only about 2 hours last night . Additionally, the musical was quite interesting , although it was so difficult that I couldn’t understand all of story, nevertheless I could enjoy it ,that’s why It must be a decent musical. Afterward, we went to Chinese restaurant, which is also my roommate’s recommendation, and then ordered three meals, which included mapo doufu. It was tasty for me, but a bit spicy… Otherwise, for my roommate it was salty and bland. So I mean why he said that , since one of waiters asked him about these meals. If I were him, I would say it was so tasty, but I realised it won’t be good for them. At that situation , I reckoned I have to say my honest opinion , they don’t seek fake opinion to make them happy at that moment. Anyway, I really enjoyed first London day, tomorrow I’m going to Birmingham to meet my friend, who is also from china . It will be a meeting for me and him after long time. I hope I will write about my journal from now on. See you then!!!

Journal for London First day...

It is my third time visiting London. London is not too far from Manchester, I think.
It takes about 2 and a half hours to get London from Manchester. If you come to London by train, it will be costly for poor students.

So this time, I came with my roommate, who is from China. It is our first trip together.

Today, we went to see the musical, The Phantom of Opera, but I was so sleepy because I slept only about 2 hours last night .
Additionally, the musical was quite interesting. Although the dialogue was so difficult that I couldn’t understand all of story, nevertheless I could enjoy it, that’s why It must be a decent musical.

Afterward, we went to Chinese restaurant, which was also my roommate’s recommendation, and then ordered three meals, which included mapo doufu.
It was tasty for me, but a bit spicy. My roommate found the food to be salty and bland. He mentioned it because one of the waiters asked about the food. If I were him, I would say it was so tasty, but I realized it won’t be good for them.

In this situation I think it is better to be honest than to lie in order to make the waitstaff feel better temporarily.
Anyway, I really enjoyed the first day in London, tomorrow I’m going to Birmingham to meet my friend, who is also from China . It will be the first time we have seen each other in a long while.

I hope I will write about my journal from now on.

See you then!!!

This was mostly pretty easy to understand even with a few mistakes here and there. The sentence that really did not make sense is "so I mean why he said that". It's very confusing in this context. You might want to try something simpler like "He said that when one of the waiters asked....ect." Also you CAN actually say "so tasty", but in this context it sounds strange and awkward so it would be better to say "really tasty" or "very tasty".
