I can’t believe it! I passed all my exams! I really don’t know how I managed to pass Maths. Now I need to decide what to study at university, but the problem is that I don’t know what I want to do. A few months ago I decided to study Biology, but now I’m not sure. It seems to be difficult to find a job as a biologist. I could become a doctor, but you have to study for years for that. I enjoy working with people. I don’t like doing the same thing every day. I don’t mind getting up early. I love travelling and I prefer working outside. Oh, and I can’t stand talking on the phone for long time. What’s the best job for me?
