The most important decision I had to make so far is whether or not I should go abroad to pursue a master’s degree.And I’m really grateful to my dad for helping me make this decision.
About a few months ago,I started to think about my future,and I have two choices:find a job immediately after graduation or go on to a graduate school.
If I get a job,I could finally be financially independent,I mean,I don’t have to ask my parents for money anymore,and I could buy myself whatever I want.However,I will lose the freedom that a student has,I mean,no more summer and winter vacations.Plus,I have to face too much pressure from my boss,or maybe other coworkers.And dealing with the complicated relationships could really give me a headache.
And the other option,going abroad,sounds tempting at first,‘cause I could travel in a different country and try all those tasty food,but living alone in a foreign country can be really challenging for me.So I was completely torn.
My dad and I had a serious conversation about it.He said getting a master’s degree in a foreign country is better for me,‘cause not only can I learn about a different culture,I could also develop my independent skills.I would grow into a big boy after I come back.
And that’s how I made the decision,so here I am.
