An experience

Last year, things weren't going too well for me. I didn't know what I wanted to do in the future, and my parents were pressing me a lot, which didn't help to decide. My mother wanted me to study chemistry, and my father wanted me to study computing. And I was all day in my room thinking what I should study in the University.

But everything changed to me when I met and old friend who made me realize that only I can make that decision, because only I will be woeking about that in the future.

If I had never met that old friend, I would have never thought about the future like a think that only me can choose. Nowadays, I still don't know, but I know that when I'll make the decision, it will be the correct one.
