My first notebook!

Hi, this is my first notebook entry so I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Chika, (you can add the words "I was" here but it's not neccessary) born and raised in Japan. I live with my parents and two younger sisters. I'm a high school student and I belong to the drama club. Thanks to my mother taking me to see many dramas plays (I assume by "dramas" you mean theatrical performances in which case "plays" may be a better word), I love watching ballets, dramas, movies and so on. And also I also got interested in foreign cultures throughout watching them. I have been studying English since I entered an elementary school and I want to study psychology in UCSD and work abroad in order to develops my talent (the word "skills" may be more natural sounding here).

 

Your English is very good! This entry actually works well as a casual American style introduction. Of course a native English speaker would word this a little differently but with some minor fixes it's very casual and natural sounding.

 

There are some differences in wording between the UK and the USA as others have mentioned. Like "primary school" vs "elementary school" or even "theatre" vs "theater." From what I understand the Japanese education system is more "American style" English so I wouldn't worry too much about it. Good job!

Very well written, you already have a good command of written English. I have just suggested a few alternative phrases. For 'elementary school' we use the term 'primary school' in the UK.
