Night Person

Night person usually have things to do overnight. He/She tends to stay up late at night. Normally, he or she keeps awake past midnight, and stays awake until 5 or 6 am because of their great problems about sleeping and waking up . For me, I've been a night person for a long time when I studied for high school graduation in my country.As a result, I'm now a person who doesn't might getting up early, and I always stay up still 2 or 3 am, lately. So far, I definitely need an alarm. However, sometimes I prefer being a night person to a morning person because it is quieter to think about something that I had done and a good way to relax completely. In contrast, my roomate is a morning person since she usually wakes up at 7 am and goes to sleep at 11pm. She told me :" You 'd better get up eraly .It helps you to be happier, healthier, and your skin would be clearer". It's also what my mother just said before. I think I should follow their advice by changing my schedule as soon as possible.

4) I choose this sentence because I had never used it.
5) Since I came here, a lot of changes- that made my new life become harder than I imaged- have come to my life.
The reason why I came here and left my country and my family behind is because of him- my younger brother.

My Introduction!

Hi, everybody. My name is Ha and I think it's an easy name either to call or laugh. I’m 20 years old. I was born in Bac Giang, Vietnam, around 5 o’clock, on a autumn-winter day. One of my interests is travel. I'd like to go to some interesting place such as : Japan, Korea, Australia, … Sometimes I'd like to be alone to think about my life, my ambitions, and something that I had done ... It‘s a great way to listen to the silence and relax completely. Also, I love music and I can listen to it all the time. Everywhere I go, I always bring a mp3 player or a cell phone which is filled of beautiful songs with me. It helps me to relax for a long time. Reading magazines, newspaper and watching movies on the Internet which helps me to know information quickly are also something I'd like to do on my free time. Finally, I would rather run, sleep than go shopping. Something I don't like? At first, I hate a person who has selfishness. And, I would never forgive anybody who had played a nasty trick on me or had told me a lie. About pets, I can't stand dogs (even I can say I hate them) and that’s why we don’t have dogs at home. If I could change the way, I wanted to improve English and Math better from my high-school. In my country, I have been studying in many schools (I changed school so regularly) where I have had many unforgettable memories with my good friends. And I'm now in Seattle to keep going in my studying-road. It's not the first place I’ve been to study and definitely not the last one. Please contact me if you want and help me to improve English throughout your comments. Thank you so much!
