What are my dreams?

Hi Sonia,

I’m Gisela and I’m going to present myself and tell you what my dreams are.

To start, I have to tell you that I’m seventeen, I live with my mother in Fortià, I have two twin brothers who study in the University, I’m studying 2nd of Batxillerat in Castelló d’Empúries (I think you already know this ;) ), I play the saxophone and that I’m a happy person.

Until I was twelve I didn’t think too much about my future. When I was six or five I said I wanted to be a doctor, then a musician and then… I can’t remember! So it was just an imaginary future. Even that, what I really knew, because my parents told me, was that if I wanted to success I had to struggle, sure.

When I grew up, at the age of fourteen, I started to push and focus and I also started to meet my goals. For example, I run in athletic club and, little by little, running three times a week, I became better and better, until I could run in a Spanish competition, which was my objective. So I met my first goal.

Now, my goals and my challenges are different. I’m studying for the last year in the high school and next year I’ll be probably studying in the University.

My short-term goal is to get good marks this year to be able to choose the degree that I would like to do in the University. What I’m going to do to meet this goal is work very hard, don’t cut classes and refuse to give up. Then, in the University, my goals will be more or less the same: improve my knowledge, which means get good marks (maybe the mark won’t be as important as this year); meet some other people from other places and go to study abroad once.

My long-term goals are few. I don’t have many dreams in my life. I just would like to follow living happily. And to meet this goal I think the most important thing is “Don’t ever give up on yourself”, in other words, do what you like as well as you can and if you fail try it again and refuse to give up.

To conclude I want to write a sentence that I like and which is related with this topic:
“The circumstances of your live are not an excuse for not trying.”
