Hallo, Teacher
Hope you could check it for me again:roll::roll:.Thank you so much!!
The writing time is not enough for the weak student like me, i always write overtime
Topic:
When considering your university education, should you follow the wishes of your parents or be guided by your friends? Write an essay stating your opinion. Support your opinion with three reasons. Give your essay an appropriate title.
Decide your own way
Every year at this moment, many form-6 students confuses about their future. Should I go for work or continue study in university is the most common question among all the students. You must already receive much advice from your parents and friends. However, deciding the choice yourselves is always the best way for students to go.
To begin with, parents who usually have high expectation on children do not know their kids’ interests. They just want them to choose the best choice which they think it is. Take my parents as an example, my father who is an engineer encouraged me to study engineering in university so that I could inherit his business and earn considerable money from that. Therefore, they ignored my personally wishes of studying art and forced me to study engineering as my university major. I had no choice but to follow their wishes without thinking too much, and I had studying there for more than a year. However, I was not interested in engineering at all so I got an undesirable Grade Point Average and wasted my valuable time there. After that, I decided to leave the engineer school and pursued my dream of studying art. After a few years, I became a famous designer in the USA due to following my dream and interest bravely. As the old saying goes by” interests decide your future” and” life is just once”, you need to decide your choice carefully but not to accept others’ advice without thinking.
Besides, you should also consider your ability of whether you could study there or not. Some popular subjects like engineering and medicine require high mathematical ability and high marks in public examination. You could not just follow your friends’ advice but ignore your ability. I believe that everyone has his or her strengths and weaknesses, and no one is prefect. Therefore, you need to focus on developing your strengths. You are the only one who completely knows about yourselves. Please don’t try to follow other’s opinions. And deeply think if it is suitable for you.
Someone said that old people, such as parents and teachers, are experienced so you should listen to them. However, they don’t know your difficulties and could not guarantee you to have a good future even if you accept their advice. If you have decided the way to go and considered that thoroughly, you should do for it and you will have no regret even if you could not succeed at the end. In fact, no one could know the future, their advice are just assumptions for you to refer. For example, they usually encourage their sons or students to further study because they personally think that education is the only way to change a life. However, Apple founder – Steve Job and Facebook founder – Mark Zackerbrg were both uneducated in university but still got a great success respectively. Therefore, the keys to the success are following your dream and taking others’ guidance as references only.
In conclusion, when it comes to considering your future, you better think about your interest, dream, ability. Guidance and wishes of parents or friends are just references for you think deeply before you decide whether you go for a work or further study. I hope students will have no regret in the choice they made.
