English task 1.38

2th March 2010.

Ever since I was a child people have asked me what I wanna become. Who I wanna become. Schools, jobs? And today the topic is more relevant than ever. I am in an age where I have to decide what I wanna do for the rest of my life. Just saying those words freaks me out. It is definitely the biggest decision I have to make. Ever.

When I was younger I always wanted to become an actor. I wanted to entertain people all over the world. I started to take courses when I was six years old, and the dream of becoming an actress just grew bigger, as I got older. I don't know when I decided not to follow this dream, but I realized that if I wanted to have an OK income, acting was not the way to go. Otherwise I haven't left acting as a hobby, I am a part of a musical-group named “FAME”.

When I comes to work and education I have decided to step behind the camera. I wanna work with commercials. I want to be a part of an agency with a good reputation and be able to create both national and international advertisement. That is why I did choose media, marketing and international English as my subjects at school. I'm not sure where I want to continue my education after high school, but I hope to at least take one year abroad.

The thought of becoming a grownup person gives me a mixed mood. I really look forward to be imperative and have control over my own life. But at the same time it is a bit sad and scary. I have a job today, and I feel like I have been taking a small step out in the life of a grownup person, but there is still a long way to go! I'm looking forward to step out in the “real world”, but I feel frail. Afraid of taking the wrong decisions.

But no matter what I do within five years I hope the decisions I'll make will give me a life and a career I can be satisfied with.
