P114 ex 6
As a child I wanted to be a ballet dancer. I was convinced that I had a great talent. My mother told me to keep studying too. She wanted me to be a journalist. I took ballet lessons every day and I spend all my money going to theatre. I thought that studying was a waste of time. One day when I went to ballet class on the bus, the road was blocked. A TV journalist was interviewing people about a recent accident. I watched from the bus absolutely fascinated. While I was watching I realized that I didn't want to be a ballet dancer at all. I wanted to become a TV journalist. My mother was delighted.
