MY FUTURE PLANS

my name is Regina Patricia. I am a student of the faculty of literature and language. My major is Mandarin education. When I was in school, I didn't have the slightest experience in learning Mandarin, so now I feel that learning Mandarin is very difficult, so I have to put a lot of effort into learning Mandarin, I think I have many abilities that can help me doing it very well.

My grade point average (GPA) now is very satisfied to me and my family, but in the first semester of the first year, my grade point average isn't good enough. I think it's because I couldn't adjust myself to the new environment and always think that learning Mandarin is difficult like the first time I got a bad first test result, I immediately gave up and didn't want to try to learn again.

I'm a diligent and strict person. I always do my works with all my intention and before I send my works to my teacher I need to check the overall of my works that if there are any mistakes or not. Moreover, I'm quite self- confident. I usually do everything with myself so I don't like to ask for help if it isn't necessary. When working in group I'm usually a leader in a group and I can do my duties the best.

Since I had good test results, I became more and more curious about Mandarin. For the last two years I've been watching Chinese dramas. I think this is my new learning method to make it easier to speak Mandarin.

Now i've been trying well in learning mandarin my next effort is to be able to finish my college program in the mandarin language education department. Currently I have started working on my final college assignment, which is to start compiling research for chapters 1-chapters 3, I hope that the results of my research can be approved by my teacher.

I plan to do many things after I graduated from the faculty of literature and language, majoring in mandarin.. The first thing is I'm going to work at an foreign company to translator or work in the field of communication that is still related to mandarin. And I will take a special course to improve my Mandarin skills. Then I will study abroad in MBA program in communication field because I think it's very useful when my working position is higher and it's can apply to use in my real-life. And then I will come back to work in Australia. All my future plans will come true if I keep learning and trying.
