I am in grade 12 at the moment, and I have many plans for my near future. In about 8 more months, I will attend the biggest exam of a student - the university entrance exam; and this can be considered as one of the most important milestones in my life. In grade 12, we need to determine our path and which university we want to study, so I also make a detailed plan for my higher education. I am good at natural science subjects, so I would love to study in medical or computer universities. I live in a small countryside, so I have to move to another big city to finish my study. It means that I will live far from my family for a long time, but I have my reparation to maintain a good life even without my parents’ care. I learn to cook the main dishes from my mother, and my father is teaching me to fix some of the simple households as well as riding a motorbike. I intend to look for a part time job after I am settled down at the new place, so I really need to get a driving license so I could be initiative with my travel. I will try to cover a part of my expenses to reduce my parents’ pressure, but I will always keep my study as my first priority. My next four - year plan is all about studying and taking a good care of myself when I am away from home. There will be many bigger things coming after I graduation, but I am sure that I can handle them well if I have a good preparation.

Now I am a last year student of university, and I am about to become a real adult once I graduate. I study at a private university of Ho Chi Minh City, and I am major in Business Administration. My temporary plan at the moment is to finish the last semester with flying colors to be qualified to do the graduation thesis. Then I will make the best thesis that one student can ever make to get a really good result in my certificate. After that, I will sign up to be an intern at a suitable company for about three months to get real life experience as well as a chance to work in a good company. The internship will not get me any money, but I have a little saving since when I had a part time job, so I think those three months without salary will not challenge me. My long term plan is to find a suitable job that relating to my major, and I really want to work in an international enterprise. To achieve that goal, I intend to participate in some professional English training courses as an assistant besides my major. If the internship requires me to have further knowledge and skills, I will also sign up to some more necessary classes. All of my roommates will leave after we graduate, so I need to find a new room; and that will be my home for a long time. The reality after I finish my student life might be very harsh and challenging, and I have to admit that I am a little afraid of it. However, with my determination and effort, I believe that I can have a bright future.
