My past and present
When I think of my life in middle school, I always feel that I have changed a lot.
When I was in Grade 7, I had many bad habits such as watching short videos on social platforms and playing computer games. Several hours usually passed before I realized it. What's worse, I couldn't stop playing computer games at night. I felt sleepy in class and failed the exams from time to time.
Thanks to my teachers' and parents' help, I got over my problems. At present, I spend most of my spare time reading books. Reading has opened up a whole new world to me. I think reading is a helpful friend. I also enjoy going travelling with my family. Getting close to nature makes me feel better.
With these changes, I believe I can have a more wonderful and beautiful life in the future.
