I have just been choosing my GCSE options these past few weeks. I have chosen subjects that I believe will help me to get a job on the RMS St Helena. These next two years i will need to be studying very hard, and then hopefully i will have a good and promising future.

I have recently made some important choices for my future. My number 1 option I chose was science as I thought it would help me the most. I would like to go to college so I can gain a farther insight in science and IT etc. Hopefully whilst in college I would then know what kind of job I would like to have in the future.

This year has been one of the most important years in my schooling career. I have just chosen my GCSE options for year 10 and 11. The choices I have made will have a huge impact for my future. I would like to go to college if the government has enough funding. If I don’t go I will stay on the island and would like to work on the US Base for security.

This year has been one of the most important years of my schooling career, over the past couple of months I have been deciding my options for GCSEs. It was very hard choosing from a wide range of subjects.

Now I am at the important stage of thinking about what I am going to do in the future.

 I have recently made choices that will have a huge impact on my future. This year was a very important year for me and my colleagues. We made very important decisions for our GSCE options. For my options, the number one subject that will help me in my future is Drama, as I would like to become an actor. I would like to go to college, although I’m indecisive on going to University. I hope the choices I have made will be the right ones, and in anticipation, I hope they will really help me in my future.

Recently I have made choices that will have a large impacted on my future. When I finish school, my wish is to go to college and study catering, I.T or car mechanics. Then maybe go to university. But if I don’t go to college I was also thinking about joining the Navy.

I have reached an important stage in my schooling career where I made some important decisions that will have a huge impact on my future. At the start of Year 9 I had decided on my GCSE options but recently realised that they weren’t that beneficial to what I want to do in the future. I then had to make my decision again which was really difficult as I had to choose subjects that were more related to what I wanted to do as a career. I would like to go to college to study hair and beauty.  From there I would hopefully work in salon.  Eventually I would like to start my own business in this field.
