Unit 7: Changes and Becoming

Greetings from Toronto! Here is your online writing assignment for this week:

Maybe you are thinking of your future a lot these days. Maybe you have no idea what your future holds yet. Often, when we ask 'what do you want to become?' we mean 'what job do you want to have?' But 'becoming' something can also be about what kind of person you want to be in life. What kinds of values are important to you?



I'm very interested to hear what your thoughts are about the future. As John Lennon said in one of his songs, "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans."



Please make your posts at least 75 words long. Please post your responses by the beginning of your first class next week (no later than midnight on May 4).

Have a great week!

Becka

  2. Hello Becka. ^ ^
    I tell you about my future.
    I want my life is happy and wonderful.
    I hope it.
    And I will earn much money.
    I think happiness is important.
    because when I like my job I'm happy.
    Yet the future of the profession did not take seriously.
    But I am in this world who want to be absolutely necessary.
    This is my dream.

  3. I am excited and worried about that just 2 years remain until I graduate from university and become a member of society.
    What will I be doing? Who will I become?
    These days, get a job is so hard. So the most important thing is to get a job.
    I want to be a public officer because I'm meticulous one that can do work like paperwork, also tend to concentrate on stability.
    Needless to say, to be a public officer, I should make lots of efforts to apply for examinations and pass them. But I don't want to get a job that I never like for just money-making.
    And I want to be helpful to someone with anything that is knowledge or character.
    I hope that my future is just not only my success and advancement but also a masterpiece made by me and other people together.
    Because I realize that the interpersonal relationship is important very much during my entire life. I want it to revitalize and be given more weight through the rest of my life.

    And I tell you my future dream.
    I want to be a teacher. When I was 10, I met very good teacher. He is kind. So I want to be like him. Therefore I decide my job is teacher. My major is like science.
    If I become biology teacher. I like biology.
    Maybe I become biology teacher, I will teach life mechanism. Like mechanism is very complicated. I am warried I could teach students. But I don`t give up. Because I believe I become good teacher. If I am senior, I will go teaching practice. If I think about that, I am so nervous.
