To study western literature and to learn many languages have always been my dreams. So I was determined to choose the subject which is relative to foreign languages to be my major study in the university. Unfortunately, I was only able to be accepted to study Chinese literature.
However, I didn’t stop to make an effort to reach my goal. I found out I can major in two subjects at the same time, but it needs a lot of hard work, and there is also an exam that we must past. I worked hard to keep my grades, otherwise, I read magazines to improve my reading and chose English composition class to sharpen my writing skill. Sometimes, I might probably think if I was doing a right thing or not, but I was lucky that everyone I met gave me lots of encouragements. Especially a teacher of my English comprehension class. She said the only secret is to “prepare well”. Thus I told myself no matter I was accepted or not, I will not be sorry to myself because I had tried my best. And I realized that if I prepared well, there must be an opportunity. Since then, not like some other students, I spent my spare time studying to strive for my future.
Nevertheless, when the exam was about to come, I got a fever. But how could I give up taking the exam? After exam, I was desperately disappointed and felt no more chance to fulfill my dream. I wondered why I had been prepared so long and couldn’t get what I want. After two weeks, the announcement was given. Surprisingly, I saw my name on it. Yes, I was accepted. I remembered the moment I cried. The feeling was like someone pulled me out of the hell. Then there was a proverb came out of my mind which is “No pays no gains”. I realized there is no short cut to success, if I would like to get a fruitful results, the only one I could depend on is myself. I thanked everyone who had helped me before and I, myself had surly learned an important lesson in my life.
