MY PLANS FOR THE FUTURE
I am a first-year student now. I’m studying medicine at medical academy.
I’m going to be a surgeon like my father who is a brilliant surgeon. I have
always looked up to him. My grandfather was a surgeon too, so you can say
that it runs in the family.
I know that it’s a very difficult and responsible job and I’m going to study
really hard to become a good surgeon. I hope that after I graduate I will be
able to work at a good hospital or clinic and get a good salary. I am going to
apply for a postgraduate course and do research in the field of cardiosurgery.
