The May holiday came and went as I had expected , I chose to be alone at the dormitory rather than enjoy the warmth of home and the joy being with my friends. I spent a lot of time introspecting and realized that it won’t take long before I become a junior and there is no time left and it is time for me to think for my future.
I have always convinced myself that being an English teacher is my life goal. No one can imagine the giant capacity one can immediately command when we focus all of our resources on one single area, so I believe that I can do it well. However, as the time went by, I have changed a lot and my mind changed. Sometimes, I am not content with my idea just to be a teacher when other people are preparing for the translation, business English, and going abroad. I also want to be somebody but not nobody. Confusion and loss are lingering in my mind.
However , a Chinese actor Huo Jianhua enlightened me. He is handsome and charming. But, what impressed me most is the experience and quality in him. Actually, he is a real dream chaser wanting to be an actor but not an idol chased by many crazy fans. It is not easy for someone to keep in a low profile and to be clam in face of the flower and clapping. However, he did. He is always wanting to be an actor and sticking to his dream. In reality, I don’t really have a good knowledge about the actor. I just like what he said and he is a brave dreamer. He said :“I just want to be a good actor, want to live my life. He said: ”one can perform one year relying on the handsome look, what about 10 years or even all your whole life? He said: ”I cherish the people who do their work carefully and want to be a good actor. He said: ”I don’t care about the glory in the center of the stage and I will choose to go behind the stage when the public recognized me as a real actor. Especially, I like what he said that young people can lost their way, so it is important for them to find their right direction.
It is true that the surface of the prosperity is just like the bubble on the sea, the forever power is always in our heart. We are supposed to find our way according to our heart. Maybe ,as an English major, to be somebody seems glorious but not suitable for me. It is not appropriate for me to hunt for those. What I should do is not care about what other people think about me and go after what I want. As one famous person said, always be a first rate version of yourself instead of a second rate version of somebody else , be your best. Whatever, at least, so far, my goal is to be a good English teacher and what I should do next is to concentrate on my major and find a major-related part time job to enrich my experience. I have always known that learning English is a long process to go. What I am supposed to do is to stick to my dream and never give up. What’s more, enthusiasm is more important ,it will take you further than any amount of experience .
We can’t afford to waste tears on ‘might-have-been, we need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after”what -can-be”.
