× I usually choose some snack who can boost my mood in the last day and helping me and have more energetic for my homework.
✓ I usually choose snacks that can boost my mood from the previous day and help me have more energy for my homework.
The original sentence misuses who for things (use that/which), mixes singular/plural (some snack -> snacks), uses incorrect tense phrase "in the last day" (use "from the previous day" or "the day before"), and has parallel structure errors (mixing 'helping me' with 'and have more energetic'). Use base verb form after 'and' to keep parallelism: 'help me have more energy'. Suggestions: replace who with that, use plural 'snacks', correct time phrase, and keep verb forms parallel.
× So uh, I always choose some snack like fruit to it.
✓ So I always choose snacks like fruit.
The phrase 'to it' is unnecessary and incorrect here. Use 'choose snacks like fruit' or 'choose something like fruit'. Also change 'some snack' to plural 'snacks' for natural usage. Suggestions: remove the extraneous preposition and use plural nouns.
× Umm, I think it's not good for me, uh, when I eat too much snack because snack snack is just a fast food and I think I'm need to declare, declare eating too much snack in the last afternoon.
✓ I don't think it's good for me when I eat too many snacks because snacks are a kind of fast food, and I think I need to stop eating so many snacks in the afternoons.
Errors: 'eat too much snack' should be 'eat too many snacks' (count noun plural + many). Repetition 'snack snack' is a mistake. 'Snack is just a fast food' should be 'snacks are a kind of fast food' (subject-verb agreement and article/use). 'I'm need to declare' is incorrect; correct is 'I need to stop' or 'I need to cut down on'. 'in the last afternoon' is wrong time expression; use 'in the afternoons' or 'in the afternoon'. Suggestions: use 'many' with countable nouns, correct subject-verb agreement, and use natural verbs like 'stop' or 'cut down on'.
× Now am 18 years old and I can I'm a teenager so umm eating too much fast food like snack is like frequently and I think I must to have disappoint myself to cut down umm fast food like snack.
✓ I am now 18 years old and a teenager, so I sometimes eat too much fast food like snacks, and I think I must force myself to cut down on fast food.
Problems: missing subject 'I am' (Now am 18 years old), awkward phrasing 'I can I'm a teenager', incorrect adverb placement 'is like frequently', incorrect modal construction 'must to have disappoint myself' (should be 'must force myself' or 'must make myself'), and repetition/word choice errors. Use 'cut down on' for reducing consumption and proper sentence connectors. Suggestions: include proper subject, simplify clauses, use correct adverbs (sometimes/frequently), and use correct verb phrases (force myself, cut down on).
× In Vietnam, uh, on most uh, shops or grocery usually umm sell some snack in the baggage.
✓ In Vietnam, most shops or grocery stores usually sell snacks in bags.
Errors: 'on most shops' should be 'most shops' (no 'on'), 'grocery' should be 'grocery stores', 'sell some snack' -> 'sell snacks', and 'in the baggage' is incorrect; use 'in bags' or 'in packages'. Suggestions: remove wrong prepositions, use correct noun forms, and choose the proper container word 'bags'.
× So all of my uh, on of my teenager or Jai usually buys some big bagged snack uh with the different flavor.
✓ So all of my fellow teenagers usually buy large bagged snacks with different flavors.
Problems: 'all of my on of my teenager or Jai' is garbled; use 'fellow teenagers'. Subject-verb agreement: 'all ... usually buy' (plural). 'some big bagged snack' -> 'large bagged snacks'. 'the different flavor' -> 'different flavors' (plural). Suggestions: use clear noun phrase 'fellow teenagers', ensure subject-verb agreement, and match plural nouns with plural modifiers.
