× Last year I had just made my own money, so I went on an amazing trip with my friends to this beautiful island in Greece where we partied a lot.

✓ Last year I had just earned my own money, so I went on an amazing trip with my friends to this beautiful island in Greece where we partied a lot.

The phrase 'had just made my own money' is awkward and less common in this context. The verb 'make money' is often used informally, but 'earned my own money' is more appropriate and clear when referring to having income for the first time. This correction improves clarity and appropriateness of verb usage in past perfect tense.

× We would offer flowers and fruits to the God and we would pray for good life and seek blessings.

✓ We would offer flowers and fruits to God and we would pray for a good life and seek blessings.

The article 'the' before 'God' is unnecessary because 'God' is a proper noun and does not require an article. Also, 'good life' needs the indefinite article 'a' to be grammatically correct. Removing 'the' before 'God' and adding 'a' before 'good life' corrects the prepositional and article usage.

× It's also important to make an impact by either offering food to the people who cannot afford it by distributing fruits, vegetables and these items amongst the underprivileged people.

✓ It's also important to make an impact by either offering food to people who cannot afford it by distributing fruits, vegetables, and these items among the underprivileged people.

The preposition 'amongst' is less common and 'among' is preferred in modern English. Also, 'the people who cannot afford it' is better as 'people who cannot afford it' to generalize. Adding a comma after 'vegetables' improves clarity in the list.

× I think according to the Chinese people, it's very important to make an impact on your birthday by celebrating your own in a very impactful way.

✓ I think, according to Chinese people, it's very important to make an impact on your birthday by celebrating your own in a very impactful way.

The phrase 'the Chinese people' is better expressed as 'Chinese people' without the definite article 'the' when referring to a group in general. Also, adding a comma after 'I think' improves sentence clarity.
