Evaluation
My life has changed a lot in the last few years. I used to be very shy and quiet, but now I am outgoing and popular. I used to like sleeping all the time, but now I am interested in swimming. Besides, I used to fail the exams, but now I get good scores on my exams.
The biggest change in my life is that I am not a fat boy any more. In the past, I was very heavy. My parents were very worried about me. My best friend John had a great influence on me. He advised me to swim with him every day. Athough the journey was long and painful, I finally succeeded in losing weight. How I am proud of myself!

The biggest change in my life is that I'm not fat any more. In the past, I was very heavy. My parents were very worried about me. Thanks to my best friend Kate, she advised me to swim with her every day. Although the journey was long and painful, I finally succeeded in losing weight. How I am proud of myself!
In a word(总之), I have become much better than before. I will keep improving myself.
