Eu tinha os melhores dias quando nadava e comia uma tigela de massa caseosa. Agora, eu não como queijo, nem nado tanto como antes. Quando eu era criança, eu tenha duas cobaias de quem eu gostava muito. Eu gostava de as ter agora.
Antigamente, eu estava sempre na água. O meu pai e a minha mãe gotavam de nadar e portanto eles levavam-me para uma equipa onde nós competiamos por anos. Eles eram excelentes pais porque eles adoravam viajar e mostraram-me muitos lugares e culturas. Nós fomos para Turquia uma vez e eles nos venderam pulseiras azuis com o olho mau. Claro que nós nadamos no mar cristalino à parte meu irmão, que preferia sentar-se a ler.Quando nos moravamos em Shaldon, iamos a praia todos os dias. Eu não assistia televisão porque nós nos ocupávamos com diversão la fora!
Recordo-me que passava as minhas manhãs, sentado perto do mar com o meu irmão e esperançávamos a balsa, para nos levar a escola. Agora, eu adoro andando na universidade mas eu senho a balsa. Hoje eu moro em Canterbury, uma cidade pequena. É tão diferente porque as pessoas são de diversos países. Quando eu era uma cirança, eu queria conversar com pessoas de culturas diferentes.Quando eu era criança eu tinha cabelo muito loiro e quando eu era adolescente eu era muito magra. Agora eu não sou alta para a minha idade e recentemente cortei o meu cabelo curto pela primeira vez desde que eu era pequena.
A minha personalidade sempre foi curiosa, determinada e faladora!

Today is Friday and tomorrow is the weekend. I'm so happy that I can have a rest after a busy week of work. I made a plan for my weekend.
I always sleep in on weekends. So, I'll do the same tomorrow!
And then, I will go to the grocery to buy Tangyuan. This is a traditional Chinese food made from glutinous rice flour. They are traditionally eaten during Yuanxiao or the Lantern Festival in our country. It's very sweet.
After eating my breakfast, I will go to the hospital to visit my father-in-law. He's been in the hospital for weeks. I hope he will be himself soon. (Did you mean, I hope he will be better soon?)
It's getting late. It's time to go to bed. Being a night owl is not good for your health.
I wish all a nice weekend, and a Happy Lantern Festival!
