I have done with my last midterm just now. I feel upset. I didn't pay attention on in class. In order to get a better grade I studied a lot during/over this the weekend. But I still did very poorly. Anyways, it's over with. I decided to take a rest tonight. "I will pay more attention on in class from now on" I always said that to myself after exams. Words are easier than to do said than done :( I am the kind of person who can't keep their word. Sometimes I don't like myself...

It can be written in more ways than one: "I have just finished my last midterm."  "I completed my last midterm, I just wrote it a moment ago."   In Asian languages, there is no word for past tense or future tense.  Everything is described as "happening this very instant".  

"I have done with my last midterm" is not correct. You must remember that there are different ways to explain things in english and it all depends on when it happened (I used "happened" instead of happen because "happen" is only used to describe one moment in time, but "happened" covers everything before this very moment. and it's the same for many words in english.  when you're saying or asking about something that happened before, you need to add "-ed" at the end of some words.)  Try to give the explanation of when, right at the beginning.  e.g. "Just now, I completed my last midterm."  Using "just" right before "now" means the time very close to now, but not exactly "now".  If you want to say something happened "now", you would say, "right now" and that means at this exact moment in time.

This is similar to what I was mentioning before.  "This weekend" would mean the weekend that you're in (Or the weekend coming up.  You should actually say "this upcoming weekend" if you want to say the next weekend, but english people will usually know what you mean if you just say "this weekend"), but when you're talking about a weekend before, you should say, "over the weekend" or "this last weekend"  (even though you're still using "this", by adding "last" you will make it known to people that you're talking about the one that just passed.

"on" is used when you want to say that you're placing something on top of something else.  "On" can also be used as a future tense in some cases.  You could say, "I have to study on the weekend."  When you're talking about a room, building, or general place you would say in or at.

You must explain how words are easier.  Saying words are easier than to do, is an incomplete thought.  How are words easier?  Are they easier to spell than to do?  Are they easier to eat than to do? Are they easier to smell than to do?  Words are easier to say them, then to actually do what they mean.  The phrase is shortened but that is what it means. :)  I hope this helps you!

I just finished my last midterm and I feel upset about it.  Since I didn't pay attention in class, I studied a lot over the weekend so I could do well on the test.  However, I still don't think I did very well.  Anyway, it's all done now and I'm going to make sure and rest tonight.  I always say to myself, "I will pay more attention in class from now on," after every exam, but that's easier said than done.  I just can't seem to keep my word to myself.

加油加油，每个人有这个问题哈哈。我觉得你写的很好。
