I have graduated from the university for one more years. Then I go to work in a company. I should say some people may be envious of my work. Because the work is easy but it's wage is high. You may say,"hey, man, you are lucky". But I don't think so. I never feel happy.
I think I'm a hardworking person. I work hard, but the workload is too small. Maybe I'm too pride, but i really want to change the work situation. After getting off work, I will learn English to improve myself. But listening and reading also are big challenges to me. I konw I should practise more times. But you know, English is not my mother tongue, and I don't know if I could be fluent in English.
I think I'm looking forward to a job which is full of challenge. At the same time, the work could help me to improve my English.
Are you satisfied with your present job? Which type of job are you looking forward to?

Hello there Mattxu,
Honestly I am jobless, but, I am not as jobless as others think. You might think how, but, I love what I am doing, being a Freelance Entrepreneur. But, I am still looking for a job where I can really find enjoyment. Just like others have, they are earning that much but still having the enjoyment. Though they are tired and exhausted, still, on top of it, fun and enjoyment governs.

Agree, airashella. it's hard to marry profit and your dreams. Ay time,s you have to give up one and pursue the others for many reasons. Even if you choose what you want rather than what you need, you are still faced iwth the grin realities of life. You can only find the strength in yourself to continue on and hope that it will be fine in the end.

Dear airasheila and jeanneyvonne,
I know the job which you say is perfect. But finding a job with high wage and much enjoyment is too tough. Maybe this type of jobs exist in the world, But I don't think I could find one of them. Each type of job contains in repeated work. You know, I think the repeated work is the most boring thing in the world. I consider that I need a job which is a challenge to me and can improve me, even if it's boring sometimes. And I could accept it, I wish I could have a brilliant carrer.

Maybe, yes, I also consider of the things that if I go into a situation which you are now staying, will I like it? But in my recent situation, I need a job which is full of challenges and could improve my ablility.
Maybe I am young now, so I have the idea to change my situation.
I need to do more things to improve myself.

I have not taken a job that never interested me. I always make sure that whatever I will be working on is something that can make me feel enthusiastic about.

I quite approve of your response. I also want to do a job which I like, but it seems very difficult. I should say I admire you very much. You are doing what you like and want, but maybe I don't have enough courage to change my work only because it isn't what I like. I always consider of many things, maybe I have lost myself in all the elements.
Finally, I should say it again, "I admire you so much".

Thank you for your support. I know your meanings. But as a young man, I think I need to work with more workload, so that I could improve myself. I want to be a man who is vigorous and speedy. I wish I could have a brilliant career.
I consider that English is very important to me. And I agree with you that if I make great efforts on my English, I will make a breakthrough on it.

The most successful persons usually do not concern their current salary,they prefer to working for the brilliant future later. You have to make a choice instead of complaint. Wish you happy and successful.
BTW, keep on learning English. In China, if you want to work for a foreign company(usually refer to American company or European Company), English could be one of your key competencies.
