At some point in life, most people wish they had done something they instead passed up. There aren’t really times in my life that I would go back and redo. However the question I ask myself is what would I’ve done differently during this past year? The first half of the year was more or less perfect since I started a new, very interesting job besides my study and finished my Bachelor’s degree with excellent success. Well, let’s have a look at the current second half. I would have chosen another university in America to study abroad, because I can’t identify myself with this remote rural area in Wisconsin. Even though I really like to be in the nature and love out-of-doors activities I prefer to live in a bigger town. I like the campus and the people here in Eau Claire, but I should have chosen a university situated somewhere in or around a bigger city. Moreover I should have looked more carefully into the courses I selected at UWEC. I would have chosen more Business classes if I knew what I know now. In spite of that, I think that I’ve had time to think about my future life here at UWEC and therefore I can say that I definitely know what I want to do and reach in my future life. I am not the person who wants to have a big house with garden, marry and then have children. If I wouldn’t have had the possibility to study here at UWEC I might haven’t detected this. To sum it up, the last year was a great year since I really know now what I want to do with my future life.
