Work

My dream is to become an archeologist or an Egyptologist. I’d like to study ancient Egyptian history and culture: the Pyramids - the tombs of the pharaohs. I’d like to take part in excavations. To become an archeologist, you have to go on to higher education and gain a university degree. Although I am still a student, I have some kind of work experience. I have had several summer jobs. There are a lot of job opportunities for students in the summer. For example, we can hand out flyers, sell ice-cream, pick fruit and vegetables, deliver newspapers, or work at fast food restaurants or in supermarkets. The advantages of working in the summer are that you can earn a little extra spending money, and you have a chance to gain real world experience and work experience. You can also learn a little bit about time and money management. The disadvantage is that you miss all of the summer fun - you can’t meet your friends, you can’t have a lie-in, you have to get up early even in the summer. Last summer I handed out flyers for a new café at the local shopping centre. I worked four hours a day. I tried to persuade passers-by to have a cup of coffee there. I liked this job. It was never boring and I met a lot of interesting people.
