I Enjoyed My Road Trip
A few days ago, I went to Coffs Harbour from Brisbane. There are many nice landscapes there. If you want to go on a holiday, that place is a good choice. I was there for a week and then I went to Sydney. There, I went to the Sydney Opera House, it impressed me a lot. Although it was just me on this trip, I was still happy.
為您的筆記:
You went on this trip in the past. So you need to make sure you are writing in the past tense.
"I'm from Brisbane to go to Coffs Harbour."
When you say "I am from Brisbane." It says that you live in Brisbane. 所以要小心。但是 to say that you went to Brisbane and then you went to Coffs Harbour, you would say "I went to Coffs Harbour from Bisbane" 還是 "From Bisbane I went to Coffs Harbour."
"Here have many good landscape."
The use of the word 'here' isn't right. This is because you are not there as you are writing this message. Therefore, you use the word 'there'. 'Here' 是 '在這裡', 'there' 是 '那邊'. 所以你說
"There are many nice landscapes there."
Also, since you used the word 'many' (很多) you need to make the word 'landscape' plural, making it 'landscapes

I had a fun time this afternoon, so I am very happy. I sung in a karaoke bar with my friends. I can't sing very well. Some of my friends can sing very well, because they are members of a Chorus.
Good job! 很好! I changed 'Happy night' to 'Great night' because usually we don't say Happy night, even though grammatically it makes sense. I changed 'have' to 'had' because you had already sung in the karaoke bar. So you needed the past form of 'have', which is 'had'.
Verb: Have
Past tense: had
Present tense: have
Future tense: will have
I added the word 'so' to connect "I had a fun time this afternoon" with "I am very happy." If you don't have the word 'so' or another connection word or phrase, then you have an improper sentence due to the comma. If you want it to be two sentences, there should be a period after the word 'afternoon':
"I had a fun time this afternoon. I am very happy."
The word 'a' was needed before the word Karaoke. Just for the sake of learning: The words 'a' and 'an' are basically the same thing, however, 'a' is used for words that start with a consonant.
Ex: a Karaoke bar, a house, a car, a phone.
However, there are some exceptions to this rule that you should be aware of. 'A' is also used with vowels that have a consonant sound:
Ex: a unique...
Because the 'u' in 'unique' soungs like 'yu' we use an 'a'.
Now 'an' is used for words that start with a vowel.
Ex: an earing, an open book, an apple
There are some exceptions to this rule as well. When we have a silent consonant as the first letter of a word we use 'an'.
Ex: It is an honor.
Since the 'h' is not spoken, 'honor' sounds like 'onor' which is why we need 'an'.
The word 'because' is used just as I used 'so', to connect the two sentences. 'Because' 是因为.
I hope this helped you! I wish you the best!
