【八年级学生暑假英语日记范文（作文550字）】July 12th, Saturday

Sunny

This morning, I got up very early. It was a beautiful day with the sun shining brightly. After breakfast, I decided to go to the park with my friend Lily. We wanted to spend some time outdoors and enjoy the summer weather.

At the park, there were many people playing. Some children were riding bikes, others were flying kites. We sat under a big tree and talked about our summer plans. Lily said she would visit her grandparents in the countryside next week. I told her that I would try to learn how to cook. I think it’s important to learn new skills during the vacation.

After a while, we went to the lake. There were many ducks swimming on the water. We also saw a few people fishing. It was so peaceful and quiet. I felt happy and relaxed. Sometimes, it's good to take a break from studying and just enjoy life.

In the afternoon, we went back home. I had a light lunch and then did some homework. Although I still have a lot of work to do, I feel more motivated now. I want to make the most of my summer and improve myself in different ways.

Today was a nice day. I hope the rest of my vacation will be as enjoyable as this one.
