In my life, there are only two types of dreams. They are the
dreams that I dream during the night (or day), and there is
the dream of my future, a dream of what I want to become.
In the dreams at night, I might dream about being a dancer,
an artist, a singer, a vet, a doctor, a lawyer…I love those
dreams. Of course I don’t take that seriously, I don’t want
to become any of those. In these dreams, none of them are
real, and most of them won’t come true. These dreams are
opportunities for me to break away from the real world and
relax. However, although my dreams can lift my spirits so
high that I wouldn’t know what the word “sadness” meant, it
can also cast uncertainty and gloom over me and drench my
soul in fear in nightmares.
Every night, I dream about something. Most people forget
their dreams in the morning when they wake up but I don’t, I
remember them clearly and vividly, whether they are
nightmares or fantasies.
Some people’s favourite time of the day maybe in the morning
or in the afternoon, or even during dinnertime, my favourite
time of the day is late at night, when my eyes become
heavier as I drift off to slumber land. Once I enter the
dream world, anything is possible. In that world, horses
have
wings, trees can talk, and I control everything. In my
dreams, I can do anything I want to do, I can do things that
I wouldn’t dream of doing in the real world. My bed is my
personal holiday resort; I can be in America one night and
be in Japan the next.
One night, would be dreaming about being a highly respected
doctor and I saved all my patients with a simple wave of the
hand.
Another night, I would be a prestige lawyer. I would win
court cases with effortless ease and get paid handsomely for
not doing much at all.
In my dreams, I am a fighter pilot back in World War II. I
would be the only fighter pilot left fighting for Great
Britain and single-handedly win the war and be awarded
medals for bravery and courage by Winston Churchill himself!
Nevertheless, all my dreams aren’t happy and jolly; I do
have the occasional nightmare.
In my nightmares, I dream about wolves chasing me on one
dark quiet night. I run and run trying to work out where I
was from the dim light that came from the moon. The wolves
won’t give up until they capture their prey – me! And when
they do eventually capture me, I wake up, perspiring from
head to toe.
I sometimes dream about living in a world of silence.
Everyone so actively unaware of me, as if I wasn’t there, as
if I didn’t exist!
I dream about falling, falling, falling into a dark gloomy
bottomless pit. I the feeling of my stomach dropping like
when a person goes down on a lift.
I dream of losing my parents in a terrible fire, that
engulfed my house. I’m all-alone with a distant relative of
mine that thinks about nothing but himself and way to take
my family fortune, which my parents left with me.
Those dreams were the dreams I dream about at night. The
other dream is to become a doctor. My aim is to find a cure
for cancer because there is a cure for cancer and I want it
to be affordable so that everybody in the world to be able
to acquire it. I don’t want become a doctor for fame and
fortune. I want become a doctor because I want to help
people who are sick or need any medical advice. After I
become a doctor, I would try even harder to achieve my
ultimate goal – to be awarded with the Australian of the
year award. I know it won’t be easy, but I’ll do everything
in my power to get it.
First in high school, I would have to study
really hard in the junior years as well as the senior years
so that I will be well prepared for the HSC. I’m only in
year eight, and I’m in the top class. However, although I’m
in the top class, I can’t stop trying to improve my skills.
I don’t know what to study to become a doctor, but I know it
won’t be easy. It doesn’t matter how hard it is, as long as
I enjoy the subject.
Why would a thirteen-year-old boy want to become
a doctor, one might wonder. Well, as I said earlier, I want
to find a cure for cancer. It’s because whenever I hear
about someone dying from cancer, it scares me a little,
because right now, there is no cure for cancer. I feel
helpless; I
want to do something about it.Not only do I want to find a
cure for cancer, I want people hooked on drugs to get rid of
the bad habit. I live in Cabramatta, and it is an absolutely
wonderful place to live in, but when I see those people
standing in the streets half asleep, I know they have been
taking drugs. When I see this, my heart squeezes into a
tight ball, I feel sorry for them. If those people keep up
this appalling habit, soon they will die. As I walk to
school, I see needles carelessly been thrown on the ground.
By doing this they not only ruin their own lives, but put
others on the line also. If I don’t become a doctor, I would
open a rehabilitating centre for the people who have
recently given up drugs. In five more years, my dream will
come true. If I achieve a good result in the HSC, I will be
in university studying to become a doctor. I can’t wait
until that day comes, maybe by the time I become a doctor,
there will already be a cure for cancer. If that really does
happen, my dream would have finally come true, even though I
didn’t discover the cure myself, it’s all the same to me. |
