My Struggle

After dinner, I felt exhausted. I knew I should go to study, such as English, drums etc. But what I want to do was to read a novel online because I didn't want to think anything, and I haven't been to the top floor for a few days. Today was cool, I thought I should go upstairs to enjoy the comfortable moment.
I picked a bl novel randomly. To my surprise, it was pretty good. There was a plot that a boy A had a relationship online, he just talked to his boyfiend on telephone, they had never seen each other for six months before they broke up. His roommate asked him why he didn't have a ralationship with somebody live nearby, so that they could hang out a lot. A answered,"I just felt lonely and wanted to have connection with someone."
Suddenly, I found out that it is the same reason why I wanted to read a novel instead of learning something. Intellectually, I should've learned something I think is more valuable such as English, which can help me with my IELTS. In contrast, reading a novel was unvalued, which was wasting fo time. Emotionally, I wanted to take a break from a whold day work. The two thoughts were fighting. As a result, I couldn't concerntrate on the novel totally because I felt guilty. I
could hardly enjoy myself. Furthermore, I began to think where I really want to be? Who I really want to be? What I think I should do is really what I want to do? I had no answer.
Two hours later, I felt bored. Thus, I stopped reading. When I was on my way of taking the rubbish out, I remember the sentence from the entry which was about the satisfaction running. "Running was so easy that I just needed to run step by step. The right foot, then the left foot, again and again." Yep, life can be also easier and simpler when I just take it step by step. So, I sit down and write down my struggle to improve my English. And then I need to go to bed early and get up early.

Feedback

very good journal. I understood you completely, but there were some minor errors. Keep up the good work and continue to things one step at a time!

My Struggle

After dinner, I felt exhausted.

I knew I should go to study, such as English, drums etchave gone to study English, practice the drums, or something like that.

You usually don't study musical instruments–you practice them.

But what I wanted to do was to read a novel online because I didn't want to think about anything, and I haven't been to the top floor forin a few days.

Keep the verb tenses consistent–last sentence was in the past tense, so this one should be, too.

Today was cool, so I thought I should go upstairs to enjoy the comfortable moment.

Or you could split this into two sentences (period after "cool")–you just need a conjunction between two independent clauses if you want to have them in one sentence.

I picked a bl novel randomly.

Not sure what bl means?

To my surprise, it was pretty good.

There was a plot that plot followed a boy, A, who had a relationship online, h. He just talked to his boyfriend on telehe phone, t. They had never seen each other for six months before they broke up.

His roommate asked him why he didn't have a raelationship with somebody who lived nearby, so that they could hang out a lot.

A answered, "I just felt lonely and wanted to have a connection with someone."

Suddenly, I found outrealized that it is the same reason why I wanted to read a novel instead of learning something.

This thread has a good explanation of the difference between "find out" and "realize"
https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/difference-between-realize-and-find-out.1571433/

Intellectually, I know that I should' have learned something that I think is more valuable, such as English, which can help me with my IELTS.

In contrast, reading a novel was unvalued, whichn't valuable/it was a wasting foe of time.

I think "unvalued" is a word, but I've never really seen it used.
Oddly enough, "invaluable" actually means "extremely valuable." English is weird.

Emotionally, I wanted to take a break from aafter spending the wholde day working.

This version sounds more natural to me.

The two thoughts were fighting.

As a result, I couldn't concerntrate fully on the novel totally because I felt guilty.

I

I could hardly enjoy myself.

Furthermore, I began to think about where I really wanted to be?.

Who did I really want to be?

Again, verb tense consistency–everything should be in the past tense.

Was what I thinkought I should do is really what I wanted to do?

I had no answer.

Two hours later, I felt bored.

Thus, I stopped reading.

When I was on my way tof takinge the rubbish out, I remembered the sentence from the entry which was about the satisfaction running.

"Running was so easy that I just needed to run step by step.

The right foot, then the left foot, again and again."

Yep, life can be also easier and simpler when I just take it step by step.

So, I siat down and write downstarted writing about my struggle to improve my English.

And then I need to go to bed early and get up early.

I knew I should go to study,'ve went to go study something such as English, drums, etc.

But what I want to do was to read a novel online because I didn't want to think anything, and I haven't been to the top floor for a few days.

A better way to write this would be:
"But all I wanted to do was read a novel online because that didn't require me to think about anything. I haven't been to the top floor of my house for more than several days."

Today was cool, I thought I should go upstairs to enjoy the comfortable moment.

I picked a bl novel randomly.

I'm not sure what "bl" means here. Maybe this was a typo or spelling mistake? Feel free to let me know what it means and I can edit my correction.

A better way to write this would be:
"The plot of the book was about a boy (boy A) who had an online relationship. While he has talked with his boyfriend on the phone, they had never seen each other in the six months from when they got together until they broke up."

(I'm not sure I understood the meaning correctly. Feel free to let me know if I'm mistaken.)

You can connect these sentences like this:
Furthermore, I began to think where I really wanted to be and who I really wanted to be.

What I think I should do is really what I want to do?

"Am I doing things because I should do them or because I want to do them?"

I had no answer.

Two hours later, I felt bored.

Thus, I stopped reading.

"Two hours later, I started feeling bored so I stopped reading"

When I was on my way tof takinge the trash/rubbish out, I remembered the sentence from the entry which was about the satisfaction running.

"Running was so easy thatbecause I just needed to run step by step.

Yep, life can be also easier and simpler when I just take it step by step.

You can also write it as: "Yep, life can be much easier and simpler when I take it step by step."

Ah ok I see. In that case I think your sentence is correct since boys' love is a genre.
You can also say "I randomly picked a boys' love novel to read."
