My new course and future

I have been living here in Melbourne for nearly 7 months, amazing! You know, there is a saying, "Time flies like an arrow". I certainly think that is true. Day by day, I feel time passes so quickly, especially when I am having fun.

My new course, Diploma of Interpreting, started 2 months ago. At first, it was quite hard for me to switch between two languages. Even with a basic dialog, sometimes I can’t perfectly translate English into Japanese or vice versa. I always feel my English is still poor and try to find a way to overcome it.

The course I am taking right now is very basic and insufficient to get to a professional level. Therefore, I am considering taking the next course, which is the Advanced Diploma course. In fact, the course is very famous for its difficulty and I am not sure if I can keep up with the class. In addition, if I take this course, I would have to stay here one more year, which means it would take more time and money. But I believe it is worth doing.

Thinking about my future, it is very vague because I can’t imagine what it is going to be… Am I going to be successful in the future? I hope so!!
