PLANNING THE FUTURE

GEMMA (age 11)


When I grow up I`m going to be a ballet dancer. I love dancing, I go dancing three times a week. I`m going to travel all over the world and I`m going to learn French and Russian because I want to dance in Paris and Moscow. I`m not going to marry until I`m 35 and then I`m going to have two children. I`d like first a girl and then a boy ? but maybe I can`t plan that! I`m going to work until I`m 75. I`m going to teach dancing and I`m going to open a dance school. I like planning my future ? it`s very exciting!

MISS BLACK (age 62)


When I retire ? well ? first ? er, two things ? I`m going to learn Russian ? I can already speak French, Italian, and German and I want to learn another language ? and I`m going to learn to drive. I never had time to learn when I was younger. Then I`m going to buy a car and a tent and travel all over the world. I`m not going to wear boring clothes, I`m tired of blouses and skirts ? I`m going to wear jeans and tracksuits all the time. And when I come home from my travels I`m going to write a book and become a TV star and tell everyone about the places I visited and the people I met.
