MY FUTURE CAREER
It’s rather difficult sometimes to choose a career and to speak about the future
profession. I’d say it’s because a lot may change in our life in a moment. There are
lucky people who chose their profession in childhood. But they are few.
If we are not indifferent to our future, while thinking about the future career we are
to pay attention to a number of important things. We should determine our abilities
and inclinations. Then we should analyze job prospects. We must know whether
the profession we choose will guarantee good living conditions and give
promotion. We must be sure we’ll avoid unemployment or at least will be able to
apply our knowledge and skills in other fields of human activity. In short, we are to
decide what we are going to do in our life and feel satisfied, but not bored or
disappointed.
When I was a fifth-former I dreamt of becoming a doctor. I wanted to be a surgeon
and treat people and save their lives. I admired the courage and generosity of
surgeons. But then I noticed I couldn’t bare the sight of blood, I’m not able to deal
with surgical instruments. And I gave up this idea.
At that time I realized that I was fond of English. I was always good at English at
school. And when we got acquainted with the English and American literature, I
understood that I want to have a perfect command of the English language and
become a good specialist in English.
So I do my best to master the language because I have made up my mind to apply
to the Linguistic University and become either a teacher or an interpreter. I haven’t
chosen it yet. Both professions are interesting and necessary in our society.
Perhaps, I’ll keep our family tradition and become a teacher of English. But I’ll
think about it tomorrow if I enter the University.
