Sherry's Diary-Why do most girls care much about their look?‏

After winter vacation, when I went back to school, I found that some of my classmates had dyed their hair. It really shocked me! It's because I am not a person who would spend much money on fashion, so I didn't understand why they did that. To me, the most important thing in life at my age is going to a good college. In order to achieve this goal, I should pay more attention to my teachers, so that I can save time on studying by myself.
Sometimes, when I accompany my mother to the department store when she goes shopping, I feel too lazy to put on cosmetics and choose which clothes I should wear. As a result not caring about fashion and its effects on my life style, I treasure my school life. It's not just about education: the way I see it, if a girl only cares about how pretty she is, but ignores her inner beauty, it could go to waste. I hope that I become a woman who has inner beauty.

Sherry's Diary-Maybe I will go to America on summer vacation‏

I had a long distance talk with my aunt in America yesterday afternoon.She told me that my cousins have been studying at home for nine years, so they don't go to school. Even though they have their own study group, I can't imagine such a method of learning. However, in America many people study at home because America is a country which symbolizes freedom, and allows them to do that if they want to.

To my surprise, my aunts' daughters were ready to go back to school just like us. Because of this, my aunt feels exhausted from teaching her own children. She said that if I went to America, she could teach me how to make a cake. I would look forward to such a vacation and would keep practicing my speaking skills everyday. In fact, going abroad for further studies has been my intention for a long time.

I asked my aunt for help because she married a foreigner and understands American culture. If I go there I wouldn't just play and eat all day, I would also learn English and experience a different culture. Such a vacation couldn't come quickly enough.



Note: You didn't say whether or not you were going to go to America, so I changes a few things Now what you wrote about is what you would do if you went there, and that you want to go because of what your aunt has told you.

Sherry's Diary-A pig life‏

Today is my first day of winter vacation, which I have excepted for a long time.However, things didn't go as well as I planned two weeks ago.I slept until ten o'clock. All I wanted to do is sleep and eat. I can't believe that the day when I have no school and can freely play all day finally comes.
When I was a child, I always did what my parents wanted me to do.As I get older, I feel lost and sometimes wonder what I actually am. Even if I have lots of achievement, I lost everything I wanted. Oh! that's too bad ~
