Doing Predictions …

Hello my Friends.
my name is Carlota, I am 16 year old and I live in Bucaramanga. I would like to talk about
my future ideas. When I was 12 I wanted to be a Vet because I like the animals too much.
My favourite subject is Biology and I often go to Natural Zoo close to Piedecuesta.
When I leave school, I think I´ll go to University and I’ll learn how to cure animals. Later I
think I´ll work at my own Vet. I don´t want to get married too son. So I think I’ll wait until I
am thirty. I hope my partner will be a kind, friendly and handsome man. I don´t want to be
a rich or famous but I want to be important and happy. I think I’ll live in a big city. I don´t
think that the world will change very much. We’ll have electric cars and very clever
computers. I hope we won´t have wars and more pandemics. Life will be easier and
peolpe will live longer. We´ll take care nature and animals.

My plans for the future is to be a successful pediatrician for which I need


to work hard, I would like to be very happy knowing that all my life I
have worked to achieve my goals, I want to feel that gratification that I
am doing things well. I want to be a very happy person who grows up
knowing what is the least and what, what suits him and what does not suit
him, I want to be a person who makes the best decisions and never regrets
having made them, I want to be someone who makes a mark on the

never have to seek help from another person to get me out of trouble. I
that above all put their values above the people.

NEXT YEAR BABY –Jamie Cullum-

Next Year, But if there's one thing, I must do,


Things are gonna change, Despite my greatest fears
Gonna drink less beer I'm gonna say to you
And start all over again How I've felt all of these years
Gonna read more books Next Year, Next Year, Next Year
Gonna keep up with the news I gonna tell you, how I feel
Gonna learn how to cook Well, resolutions
And spend less money on shoes Baby they come and go
Pay my bills on time Will I do any of these things?
File my mail away, everyday The answers probably no
Only drink the finest wine But if there's one thing, I must do,
And call my Gran every Sunday Despite my greatest fears
Resolutions I'm gonna say to you
Well Baby they come and go How I've felt all of these years
Will I do any of these things? Next Year, Next Year, Next Year
The answers probably no
