I want someone to correct my diary. Would you do that for me, please?

JUST A DIARY ON Mar.21th

I had thought that generally people around the world are expected to pay in cash when buying something. But that did not seem to be the case when I was on a trip abroad. I have some reasons why I was under that impression. One is: I am too young to use electronic payments. I am still a collage student (Actually, tomorrow I'm going to graduate from college and I'll be out in the world, i.e. joining the workforce), so I didn't have my own credit card and did not have any chances to pay with credit card. But at last, after 6 months, I obtained some credit cards. Of course, I use them when shopping online; however, in real life (like shopping offline) I don't choose to use electronic payments. In the last year, I have been abroad to 3 countries where English is the national language. Almost all the people who live in those countries pay with credit card. This scene shocked me. At the same time, it embarrassed me that I was paying with CASH. According to the internet, electronic payments are common around the world, especially in Europe and the United States. It's unusual in Japan, I think. For example, when taking the bus, watching a movie, or buying something to drink form a vending machine, almost all Japanese people are still of an analogue mindset, including me (I'm just guessing). But, when I was on my trip abroad, I realized that this method was really useful. I'll keep that in mind and try to take the initiative to pay with a credit card.

I thought that usually people in the world are supposed to pay in cash when buying something. But I noticed that it does not seem that way when I was on trip abroad. I have some reason why I was under the impression that it's usual. One is: I am too young to use electronic method. I am still a college student ( Actually tomorrow I'm going to graduate from the college, and I'll be into the world soon, I mean joining the workforce). So I didn' t have my own credit-card and do not have any chance to pay using a credit-card. But 6 month ago, at last, I obtained some credit-cards. Of course I use it for online-shopping, however, in real life like shopping-offline, I don't choice a electronic payment. From last year to this year, I have been abroad to 3 countries where English speakers live. There, almost all of the people that live in the country paid in credit-card. This scene shocked me, at the same time, it embarrassd me that i am paying by CASH. According to the internet, it's said that electronic payments is usual in the world especially Europe and the United states. In japan, it's not usual, I think. For example, when taking off(alighting? departing?) the bus, watching a movie, buying something to drink from a vending machine here, almost all Japanese are still analogue person including me( I'm just guessing). But I got to knew that this method was really usuful when I was on a trip abroad. I will keep it in mind and I'll try to do that.
