The weather said that there were two typhoons coming. Yes, two typhoons are coming at the same time. It reminds me of the famous slogan: winter is coming, which came from the series"Game of Thrones".
The town where I am living is about 100 km from the sea, so there are always many typhoons from June to October every year. When I was a kid, the eletricity system of my town was so poor that even a big thunder could make it out of work. Without eletricity, we children could't watch TV. And there was no bus in the small town, we could't go anywhere for travelling. So I would play pokers with my neighbors, some of who were schoolmates of mine, some were their mothers.
When I was a college student, my family moved in a little house in front of a middle school. I remembered one of the typhoons, which happened in summer holiday. The winds kept roaring and roaring, whereas the windows were shaking heavily and they seemed like breaking every seconds. Though I was scared, I still stayed alone in my room. I looked out of the window and saw several ducks standing together in the grass. I wrote a sentence in my article: I was weaker than the ducks.
Tonight, I am contradictory of the typhoons' coming. On one hand, I am expecting they coming because the storm will make me separate from the world, I can stay in my place alone without any humans' noise but just the sounds of rain and wind. I can read and think in the quiet world. On the other hand, I am a little worried about they coming because it will be so inconvenient to go for work. But I can't do anything to control the typhoons, so I become peaceful now.

The weather said that there were two typhoons coming.
Colloquially this is okay, like "Have you seen the weather?" "They said on the weather that it would be sunny" "The weather today says light showers" - but properly this should be "The weather forecast said".
Yes, two typhoons are coming at the same time.
It reminds me of the famous slogan: winter is coming, which came from the series "Game of Thrones".
The town where I am living is about 100 km from the sea, so there are always many typhoons from June to October every year.
Note that "The town where I live" would be very natural here, you don't *need* the progressive tense. But it's okay.
When I was a kid, the electricity system of my town was so poor that even a big thunderstorm could makeput it out of workaction.
Or "a big lightning strike". "A big thunder" is the noise only.
Without electricity, we children couldn't watch TV.
And there was no bus in the small town, we couldn't go anywhere for travelling.
So I would play pokers with my neighbors, some of who were schoolmates of mine, some were their mothers.
The card game, right?
When I was a college student, my family moved into a little house in front of a middle school.
Or "moved into".
I remembered one of the typhoons, which happened in the summer holiday.
Are you thinking of a specific time you remembered this? Like "Yesterday I remembered one of the typhoons"? It's fine if so. But maybe "I remember" would be more natural.
The winds kept roaring and roaring, whereas the windows were shaking heavily and they seemed like breaking every few seconds.
Or "every second". "whereas" is a bit odd here, there doesn't seem to be a contrast. But I wouldn't say it's wrong.
Though I was scared, I still stayed alone in my room.
I looked out of the window and saw several ducks standing together in the grass.
I wrote a sentence in my articlediary: I was weaker than the ducks.
Maybe? I don't know exactly what you mean by "article", usually an article is a piece of writing you find in a newspaper.
Tonight, I am contradictory ofambivalent about the typhoons' coming.
Good word to use here. Otherwise, you might say "I have contradictory *feelings* about the typhoons' coming." But "I am contradictory" doesn't fit.
On one hand, I am expecanticipating theym coming because the storm will make me separate from the world, I can stay in my place alone without any humans' noise but just the sounds of rain and wind.
This is tricky - expecting just means "I believe they will come". I am expecting the taxi to arrive at ten, I am expecting to be fired tomorrow. It doesn't say anything about your feelings, just that you believe something will happen. "anticipating" means the same thing, but we also use it to mean "I am excited about this thing that will happen". "I am waiting for it eagerly".
I can read and think in the quiet world.
On the other hand, I am a little worried about theym coming because it will be so inconvenient to go forto work.
But I can't do anything to control the typhoons, so I become peaceful now.
Feedback
I would anticipate them also - I love storms, thunderstorms or just rainstorms. As long as I don't have to go outside :)
This was well written, your tenses were good and I liked your imagery. Pay attention to "couldn't", though :)
