Use past tense, and talk about what did you do on your last birthday?

In my last birthday, My parents bought a cake for me and my mother bought a gift for me. My best friend gave me a gift too and I got much money. In the evening, my parents and I had dinner together, and my best friend through phone sing a song for me. In that day, I was very excited because I will get a lot of gift and money. I think it’s necessary for bought a cake for birthday song.

This year, my best friend’s birthday on May 3rd. She invited a lot of her friend and me to go to her birthday party. First of all, they went shopping. At dinner, I went to the cake store to got a cake. It’s a surprise, she didn’t know. I went to the hotpot store and took cake for me, she was “wow, so nice”. She was a kind girl. Four years ago, we met in the playground because we both of us were athletic. Since that time, I first met her, wow that girl was so black and maybe she was not very kind, her face was very serious, so I’m afraid of her. A few months later, she told me about her idea for me, she said “I’m afraid of you too”, I said “what?”. You are very seriously at that time, so maybe at that time, we were both very seriously so we couldn’t talk each other. In the first time, I remembered that we couldn’t talk with each other, just a few later, we talked about our life and what we like.

Revised

For my last birthday, My parents bought a cake for me and my mother bought a gift for me. My best friend gave me a gift too and I got a lot of money. In the evening, my parents and I had dinner together, and my best friend through phone sing a birthday song for me through the phone. On that day, I was very excited because I would get a lot of gifts and money. I think it was necessary to buy a cake for the birthday song.

This year, my best friend’s birthday was on May 3rd. She invited a lot of her friends and me to go to her birthday party. They went shopping. At dinner, I went to the cake store to get a cake. It was a surprise, she didn’t know. I went to the hotpot store and took out the cake for me, she said “wow, so nice”. She was a kind girl. Four years ago, we met in the field because we both of us were athletic/ athletes. When I first met her, I thought: wow that girl was so dark and maybe she was not very kind, her face was very serious, so I was afraid of her. A few months later, she told me about her impression of me, she said “I was afraid of you too”, I said “what?”. You were very seriously at that time, so maybe at that time, we were both very seriously so we couldn’t talk to each other. At the first time, I remembered that we couldn’t talk with each other, just a few days later, we talked about our life and what we liked.
