I always dream big. I had planned to get the highest marks during the final exam. But I didn’t make it. And my dream of winning the English Olympic competition also didn’t come true. But I have a new dream now. I want to study abroad when I grow up. So my next year’s plan is to improve my English.

My biggest wish is to watch to the end of the Spring Festival Eve Variety Show(春节联欢晚会)without falling asleep this year. Last year, I got bored with program after 11o’clock and went to bed early. This year I will stay awake until the last minute. Why? My favorite star Jay Chou, together with other stars, will be on the program this year. How can I not watch to the end?

I want to be closer to my friend this year. We used to be in the same middle school. Now her school is about half an hour’s ride from mine. We don’t see each other often now but we do miss each other. I will buy her some of her favorite things as presents when her birthday comes. I want to tell her that I hope our friendship lasts the whole life.

I have too many ideas. First of all, I want to be a better sister. I always enjoy being with my sister. She is four years younger than me. We make cakes and watch films together. She once told me that my chocolate cookie was her favorite food. But this year I was too busy with my schoolwork. I didn’t make enough time for her
