Plans for next semester

I have attended in ALP for two months. It was the time that was not long enough to see more changes but it was enough to recognize to some things that I am proud of a little of my improvement.
First, I can communicate more confidently. Before that, when I start to study here, it is difficult to react immediately. Every time, I want to speak or write about anything, I need to think a long time to arrange my idea.
Second, I can understand English from people come from many countries.
However, my listening skill is still not good; I need to improve by practicing much more. I haven’t still understood clearly what native people talk. Sometimes, I ask they say again l can understand.
Next semester, I will continue to study ALP, I want to improve my English in communication and academic to admit to MBA soon. I need to get high score in TOEFL and GMAT. I know that it is not easy for me right now, but this is my target and I want to gain it.

My favorite television program

There are many TV programs, but my favorite TV program is financial news.
First of all, my interest is investment. Therefore, I like to watch financial news to follow the prices and index of something that I am interested in.
Some of financial news that I usually watch is CNBC, Bloomberg, Gold essential, and VN economy….
Second, I intend to choose finance as my major in the MBA program in the future. There is a lot of analysis in financial news that I can read. For example, when the price of oil increases, I can find out the reasons and information to explain what is going on.
In addition, financial news give a lot of information of everything is happening all over the world. I can follow the events if I should sell, buy, or hold my investment. For example, it updates the prices of gold, oil, and the exchange of currencies such as EUR/USD, JPY/USD….
For these reasons, the financial news has become one of the important things that I have to watch every day.

Work for the company or go into the business

In my opinion, I prefer to work for the company a while to get experience and after that I go into business for myself.
There are many reasons for my choice. First, the goal in my life is that become a successful business woman. However, I need a process to achieve this goal, I can’t gain it in a short time. Therefore, I have to take a position in a company to get experience in many industries. For examples, if I intend to go into business for financial industry, I have to work in some financial companies.
Second, when I work for the company, I will have many relationships with many kinds of people. These relationships help me much more in the future when I go into business. For examples, I have good relationship with my colleagues, managers, customers, in many companies that I worked. When I need to solve something that I don’t handle, I can take some advice from them.
Finally, I will go into business for myself. At that time, I have enough conditions to carry out my plan. I will use my knowledge and experiences that I got to apply in my business. Business will give me many opportunities to get more money, and create value something for the life. It is not only for me but also for my family and society.
