In life people have dreams and goals they
want to achieve. Many teenagers and young adults have dreams
they want to achieve during high school. For examples,
getting good marks in HSC have a good reputation among
school friends and teachers, etc. These dreams can change as
we discover new and better things and slowly forget about
the past. In this essay, I will talk to you about my dreams
and goals in life, some of these ambitions are in the areas
sport, school and work.
In school I would like to maintain a good
name for myself academically and have a good reputation. I
always try to do my best in every subject and it doesn’t
matter if I am not good at it because there is always room
for improvement. I study very hard for tests and try to get
a top score in my class.
Maths is my
favourite
subject and I am always looking to score a good mark in
every test. I like English because I like to read books and
do drama. I also like practical science, especially when we
do experiments using different equipments. School can be
hard at times, like doing assignments or having a bundle of
homework to do over the weekend. My mum always tells me that
in life nothing comes easy. You have to work hard and that
hard work will get you a better result. This has been a
great advice for me, as I started high school. Now, I aim
for best result in every subjects even those that are not my
favourite. I would also like to achieve a HSC mark 90% or
more. With these good marks I will then have a better chance
of getting in the job or University that I like. One day I
would like to become a computer engineer or a computer
programmer. I would like to do be a good student in High
School because it will help me to be a better person later
in the years. If I have a good reputation coming out of
school than maybe I will have a good reputation going into
University. If I do well in all my examinations through high
school, I can look at all my success for those years and
build more confidence in myself. I would like to go to
Sydney University or University of Technology.
Just like
school, I love my sport. One particular sport that I love
to play the most is cricket. I have been playing cricket
for my local club, Wetherill Park Cricket club for the past
four years. I was introduced to this game five or six years
ago and loved it ever since. My favourite international
teams are Australia and India. I like these two teams
because I am of Indian origin and was born in Australia. My
two favourite players are Glenn McGrath, a world class
bowler from the Australian squad and Sachin Tendulkar, the
world’s number one batsman from the Indian squad. I try to
play when I finish my homework or in my spare time. Now that
I am in high school, I always seem to have assignments or
homework to do and can’t find time to do the things I enjoy,
like sport. During the weekends, I practice batting and
bowling with my dad in our back yard. One day I hope to play
for Australia as a bowler and beat Courtney Walsh’s current
record of over 500 wickets in test match cricket. Becoming
a top bowler requires hard work and lots of practice. To
get into the Australian squad I will have to practice much
harder to be perfect. I always like playing cricket because
I love the game especially when I am bowling. I love the
feeling when I bowl somebody out and the crowd start
roaring. I also want to play to keep my body fit and
healthy. If you are successful in that sport you can obtain
a good reputation for yourself. Teachers and people will
recognise you because they like to watch sport. If you are
really good, you could get your name published in the local
paper and your name could spread through the community. I
think school is important but so is sport.
Another one
of my dreams is to become a computer software engineer like
Bill Gates. I would love to make my own softwares and become
a multi billion dollar corporation. Then, I could hire and
employ people to make the upgrade versions of the original,
while I look after the financial side of the company. It
sounds all easy in words but I know it is a very hard job
looking after a company. You have to pay tax, employees,
equipment, and the list goes on. Owning your own company can
cause a lot stress and frustration, but I think if I am
determined I will manage. I really want to do this job when
I grow up because it has been my life long dream. I love
computer programming and this means I get paid for doing
something I love. My dad always tells me to do something
you love and don’t take a job just for the money. He tells
me that this job will be hard to get because many people
want to get in the computer industry and by the time I grow
up many people will have taken this type of job. I still
will do my best to get this job.
When I achieve everything and start earning
good money, I would love to help my parents, both
financially and in any other way possible. They are
helping, encouraging and advising me all the time. They
support me with my education a great deal. This will pay
them back for all their time and effort. I would like to buy
myself a house and a car. Finally , I will find a nice
girl, get married and have few kids. I hope that one day
these dreams of mine will turn it into reality. |
