The winter vacation is coming to an end soon. It’s hard to believe that I’ll return to work next week. It feels like I just started my winter vacation yesterday. I’m worrying about whether I can keep my habits of reading books and learning languages after the new term begins. Although I’m able to discipline myself during vacations, daily work can easily destroy my self-discipline. I need more energy to resist the temptation of doing nothing after I get off work. As always, my winter vacation plan hasn’t been 100% realized, but I’m still happy with my progress.

The winter vacation soon will be no more. It’s hard to believe that I return to work next week. It feels like I started my winter vacation only yesterday. I worry though, lest my best habits weaken: reading books and learning languages. Can I can maintain these precious habits once the new term begins? Although I’m able to discipline myself during vacation, the exigencies of a job tend to undermine my self-discipline. Oh Sloth, be not proud! I shall defeat you when my working day is done! True to form, my winter vacation accomplishments have fallen short of my dreams, but I am happy still with my progress. Bravo, Claudia! Do not falter! Sloth will not defeat you!
"I'll return" is fine, but "will" is not needed. I think it even sounds better to use the simple present tense. To move action into the future, you need to do something, but using "will" is only one of several possible ways. "Next week" moves the action into the future all on its own. You need do no more. //// In your fourth sentence, the principal thought is: "Can I keep?". I tried to magnify the importance of that by turning the sentence into a question that confronts the reader more forcefully.
