My Summer
Time flew fast. Nearly a whole month has passed and the summer will end soon. I was too lazy and didn't do much reading. This made me to feel a bit nervous and worried about my new life; that is, I will returning to being a student after having left campus for such a long time.
However, there are some amazing changes that have happened.
One is that I have finally found a new model of getting along with my parents, which was the only problem that I felt was hopeless to solve.
I understood a lot of social norms more clearly in the last few days. Similarly, I suddenly realised that I had too much of an idealistic view of my parents. I can now finally get rid of the negative power of the Chinese religion, and things like filial piety. I feel much stronger.
Another is that I don't have to be carnivorous. I had never had any interest in vegetables. At most, I just didn't mind having some when they were on the table. Last week I had a fever for several days, and one day during it when I ate some meat, unexpectedly, I felt my stomach hurting a lot and I felt like vomiting during the whole afternoon. This happened again the next day. I suddenly found it would help me recover if I just ate vegetables. I finally found that my dad cooks vegetables wonderfully, and that he is not just good at cooking meat and fish. I began to miss the flavour of the fried vegetables he cooks. This feeling I had never emerged in the past. It is a good thing that I can quit the addiction of eating meat. It is healthier for me.
Thirdly, but more trivially, I went swimming several times. My swimming skill has been improving over the last fours years. I didn't make special efforts to do so, and never had any great expectations. At first when I taught myself swimming, I felt it was so hard and I didn't even think I would make it some day. Naturally (As usual?), things have changed. This change gives me a lot of confidence about “time”. I used to be impatient about results. I easily got disappointed easily if I didn't experience success in a period I could predict. Now I think I can wait. I don't need to measure time just by days or months, but by years as well.
Likewise, my "friendship" is steadily growing stronger and stronger. I think I am a lucky girl.
Besides, because of swimming, my flesh (skin?) is getting firmer. I have never had protuberant muscles before, but now I can see a six pack of abdominal muscles, and the shape of my waist is nearly perfect. I want to find some ways to avoid it changing into fat when I am busy at university and don't have time to do exercises.
Note: "a six pack of abdominal muscles"-- you can simply say "a six pack" because it refers to abdominal muscles.
Good work!

My Summer
Time flew by fast. Unconsciously I have not been paying attention for nearly a whole month and the summer will end soon. I was too lazy and didn't do much reading. This made me to feel a bit nervous and worried about my new life, that is I will return to be a student after leaving campus for such a long time.
However, there have been some important changes.
One is that I finally have begun to find a new way (maybe 'model' is okay or better) of getting along with my parents, which was the only problem that I felt hopeless to solve.
I understood a lot of social things more soberly in the last past days. Similarly, I suddenly realised that I used to be too idealistic towards my parents. I can now finally get rid of what I see as a negative aspect of Chinese religion: filial piety. I feel much stronger.
Another is that I realized that I can be not be only carnivorous. I had never had any interest in vegetables. At most I didn't mind having some when they were on the table. Last week I had a fever for several days and one day during it when I ate some meat, unexpectedly, I felt my stomach hurting a lot and I felt like vomitting for the whole afternoon. This happened again the next day. I suddenly found it would help me recover if I just ate vegetables.

This feeling never emerged in me in the past. It is a good thing that I can quit the addiction of meat. It is more healthy for me.
Thirdly but more trivially, I went swimming several times. My swimming skill has improved in the last four years. I didn't give special effort to it and never had too much expectation. When I first began to teach myself to swim, I felt it was too hard and I didn't even think I could acquire this skill. But as you see, this as proven not to be true. This change gives me a lot of confidence about “time”. I used to be impatient about results. I easily got disappointed if I couldn't see success in a period I could presume. Now I think I can wait. I don't need to measure time just by day or month, but by years.
Alike, my "friendship" is going more and more tight steadily. I think I am a lucky girl.
Besides, because of swimming, my flesh becomes more compact. I have never had protuberant muscle before, but now I can see six bucks of abdominal muscle and the shape of my waist is nearly perfect. I want to find some ways to avoid it changing into fat (I don't think that's possible)* when I am busy at university and don't have time to do exercises.
*(Fat and muscle are gained and lost through seperate processes. One can't change into the other. They are composed of different things. Fat is a lipid, muscles are from proteins, vitamins...fat is not even composed of cells. I don't think it's living tissue as muscles are.)
Thirdly but more trivially, Then I went swimming several times. My swimming skill was being It had been improved in the last fours years. I didn't make any special effort on it and never made nor had any expectation. At first when It was self taught myself swimming, I and felt it was so difficult that I thought that I would never make it through. hard and I didn't even think I can make it some day. Naturally things have changed. This These changes gives me a lot of gave me confidence about “time” and realized the power of time and patience. I used to be impatient about results. I easily get easily disappointed when if I don't see things happening fast. couldn't see the success in a period I could presume. Now I think believe I can wait. I don't need to measure time just by days or by months, but by years. [I would have written as, "Measure time not by days or months but by years for everlasting success"]
Alike, my "friendship" Finally friendships have been blossoming well. is going more and more tight steadily. I think I am a lucky girl. Besides, because of With all the swimming, my flesh becomes more compact [Chinglish] I am getting more toned.

I want need to find some ways to avoid maintain what I have gained.
