× Actually it depends on my mood on that day.
✓ Actually it depends on my mood that day.
Use present simple to state a general habit; 'on that day' is redundant and awkward. 'That day' is sufficient and more natural in this context.
× When I feel sad, I usually listen to another sad song and but I don't think that it will increase my spirit on that time on that day.
✓ When I feel sad, I usually listen to a sad song, but I don't think it will lift my spirits at that time.
Remove unnecessary 'another' and 'and'. Use 'a sad song' (article correction) and 'lift my spirits' is the natural collocation. 'Will' is acceptable but 'at that time' is the correct prepositional phrase. Fixed plural 'spirits'.
× So I just switched to the happy song.
✓ So I switch to happy songs.
Maintain present simple to describe habitual action. Use plural 'songs' for general preference. 'Just' can remain but is unnecessary. 'Switch to happy songs' is natural for a general habit.
× Actually happy song is more uh mid-May make mood.
✓ Actually, happy songs are more likely to lift my mood.
Correct article and number: use plural 'songs' and verb agreement 'are'. The original phrase was ungrammatical and unclear; 'more likely to lift my mood' conveys intended meaning.
× Yeah, of course happy music make me more feel more excited because when I listen to happy music, I can feel the uh, spirit from that song and I I think that umm, it can be manifesting for my daily life.
✓ Yeah, of course happy music makes me feel more excited, because when I listen to happy music I can feel the energy from the song, and I think it can have a positive effect on my daily life.
Subject-verb agreement: singular 'music' requires 'makes'. Remove duplicate 'more'. 'Spirit' replaced with 'energy' which is more natural. 'Manifesting for' is incorrect; use 'have a positive effect on'.
× Like when I hear happy music every day, I think that my life will got happier also.
✓ When I hear happy music every day, I think my life will get happier too.
Correct future construction: use 'will get' not 'will got'. 'Also' replaced with 'too' for natural placement. Removed unnecessary 'that'.
× No, I have not actually I want to take a music classes music class.
✓ No, I have not. Actually, I want to take a music class.
Split into two sentences for clarity. Use singular 'a music class' rather than 'a music classes'. Added punctuation.
× But The thing is there is no music class in my town and I don't think that I have such a time to do that kind of classes.
✓ But the thing is, there are no music classes in my town, and I don't think I have the time to take those kinds of classes.
Use plural 'classes' with 'are' (there are). 'Such a time' is incorrect; use 'the time'. 'Those kinds of classes' matches plural. Fixed capitalization of 'the'.
× Yes, I usually hear music when I'm on work or when I do jogging or running or sometimes when I take a bath and wash my clothes.
✓ Yes, I usually listen to music when I'm at work, when I jog or run, or sometimes when I take a bath or wash my clothes.
Use 'listen to music' (more natural than 'hear music'). Use preposition 'at work' not 'on work'. Use verbs 'jog or run' without 'do'. Use parallel structure with 'or'.
× I just or preparing for my work, I just listen to the music.
✓ When I'm preparing for work, I just listen to music.
Fix sentence structure by removing extraneous 'or' and duplicate 'I just'. Use 'music' without 'the' for general listening. Simplified to a single clear clause.
