Dear Diary,
I’m back at school. After a long summer break, it was so nice to see my classmates again!
On Monday, I got up early. I met all my classmates at school. We talked, laughed, and shared stories about the fun things we did over the summer. Li Lin told us about her trip to Hainan. She bought many postcards for us. Wang Mei went to volunteer in a mountain village. Song Hua learned to play the guitar and went to a concert. It was amazing to hear all about their summer vacations.
During the gym class on Wednesday, we played football. My friend Jack and I were on the same team, and it felt great working together again. The game was super exciting. It was a tie game until the other team scored in the last minute. I felt a little sad about losing, but playing our best was still lots of fun!
Friday was special because we had our first physics class. Physics is a new subject for us, and our teacher showed us some cool experiments. I felt excited to learn more about the wonders of science.
Well, it’s time for bed now. I'm looking forward to another fantastic week!
