Differences Between My Country and the U.S

            I was born in Vietnam and I have been living in U.S for five months.  I think there are lots of differences between Vietnam and U.S.  First, I talk about the traffic.  Vietnam is one of the worst place on the world about traffic. It is so terrible. many foreign visitor said that: "The through line in Vietnam is terrible.  It was like working on the board to consult with their lives are what is brought out bet."  Lots of people in Vietnam seem unaware give way.  Second, people in Vietnam are never care about get line. It is too bad. These are two examples about different life style between Vietnam and U.S.  One thing I think is different is the building materials. The houses here are made from wood frame, wall paper materials are pressed because of earthquakes.  In Vietnam, almost houses are made from sand, bricks, steel, stone, water and cement.   And I think the power plug of electric tools in U.S have three pins, we just use two in Vietnam

My Dream Job

        My father is a successful businessman, so he hope I can became a businessman like him. When I studied in university, my major was Banking, and now I want to study about finance in Master's Degree. After I finish Mater Program, i want to find a job in a foreign bank in Vietnam or i can get my own business. However, when I studied in secondary school, my dream job was flight attendant. I lived in South Vietnam. I really wanted to become a flight attendant since the first time I took a plane with my mother to go to North Vietnam. I remember clearly my feeling at that time, I was so exciting, and I said with my mother that in future I wanted to become a flight attendant. I would travel a lot, I would fly on the sky whole day. After that trip, I often dreamed that I become a flight attendant, I served the customers, and I flew with crew on a big plane. Unfortunately, when I was in high school, I was a short-sighted person, so i can not apply for study in a university to training a flight attendant. Besides, my parents did not agree me to become a flight attendant. They said that if I was a flight attendant and I got married, I would have no time for family. So my father advised me to become a businessman like him. Finally, I gave up my dream to fly on a plane. Now whenever I take a flight, I see a flight attendant, I always smile and think about my dream job.
