NO.4 Say Goodbye to my past
It's been a long time I didn't write a passage. It's not a good behavior to learn a language or any subject but I'm still get tired to write something down. Maybe that because I thought all I have written are rubbish and equals to nothing. When I read my collage English book, I always confused. Why there still so many English sentences I do not understand? Why I cannot write the beautiful sentence as the writer do? Why I still cannot speak as a native speaker? I have learnt English for so many years, who can help me out of this? I lose confidence sometimes but I'm still strong to keep on. The good news is I past the most important English text in collage, the CET-4. For a higher goal I decided to take part in the next level, the CET-6, and I'm busy with it. The text will on in June. Wish me luck, my friends. Whatever the trouble is in our way, the life will still go on. So say goodbye to the past and say hello to tomorrow. Tomorrow is a better day.

NO.4 Say Goodbye to my past
It's been a long time since I wrote a passage. It's not a good behavior to learn a language or any subject, but I'm still get too tired to write something down. Maybe that's because I thought all I have written is* rubbish and equal to nothing. When I read my college English book, I always become** confused. Why are there still so many English sentences I do not understand? Why can't I write beautiful sentences like other writers? Why can't I speak like a native speaker? I have learned English for so many years, who can help me out of this? I lose confidence sometimes but I'm still strong to keep on. The good news is I past passed the most important English text in college, the CET-4. For a higher goal I decided to take part in the next level, the CET-6, and I'm busy with it. The test will be in June. Wish me luck, my friends. Whatever the trouble is in our way, the life will still go on. So say goodbye to the past and say hello to tomorrow. Tomorrow is a better day.
*This verb goes with "all I have written". While you have written more than 1 thing, "all I have written" is a singular phrase, so use "is" instead of "are." If you said instead "all the entries I have written," that would be plural and you would use "are".
**You wrote: I always confused. We need a verb in this sentence. Options:
(1) I am always confused.
(2) I always become confused.
(3) I always get confused. (means the same as #2, but less formal)
Great job. As they say in Japanese, がんばって.

My comment i snot about the sentence structure since my English is not native, so I only will give you feedback about the thought behind the words.
Your Asian way of thinking to fit into western pattern is like putting girls clothing on boys. Cute and funny at times. But we get what you are trying to say.
I am sure the same is true when a westerner trying to apply his/her thinking in Chinese, yes? Know this: The more advance a topic over which two or more people are engaged in to communicate, the communication gets more problematic and words have to be selected very carefully. Therefore it is very difficult to manage meaningful cross cultural thought exchange that goes beyond the trivial. Do you get this?
