Dream Catcher

Every time I listen to this song, Dream Catcher,written by Band Secret Garden, I feel like hearing the murmuring of streams, while I myself would find my little piece of mind. I'm also a dream catcher!
       Whenever asked what I want to be in the future, or what kind of job I want to do, it seems the answer nearly never change---any kind on the condition that it relates to English. I don't know if I can call it destiny, but indeed it's a predestination.
       All of this dats back to the year when I was only 3 years old. One day in our annual clan gatherings, I first met my cousin, a distant relative, who,however, influenced me my whole life. She is highly educated and has a very decent job. Being kind,sweet and elegant, I admire her so much. She tought me one English word, and one phrase, which I will never forget. One is "face", and the other is "not at all". Her pronunciation is so beautiful that I immediately had a crush on English. From then on, whether on TV or on the magzine, whenever I heard or saw English, I would concentrated myself on it. I thought I was crazy at that time.
      I began to study the ABCs at the grade of three in primary school. Although it's not officially, just a supplementary class, I still very appreciated my abecedarian. She gave me a very firm foundation of learning English, the alphabet, the phonetic symbols, the pronunciation and the basic dialogues, the most important, interest. I believe without the interest, I wouldn't have holden on to it for so many years.
      Gradually I can read, listen and speak little by little, and I began to watch the TV programmes of English, which also help me a lot. When in my junior and senior school, I watched ,,such as ,, and also the programmes , which teach English through movies, and the most influential one,. These programmes accompanied me for more than 6 years and riched my English-learning life so much.
      I've always believed that I am doomed to make English as my major and my career. Even sometimes I've thought of thinking about being a journalist or a lawyer, but finally I come back,  still choosing English. And also I like everything about languages, for I love saying different languages and getting to know the exotic cultures. In the future I also want to further my French, learn some Korean,maybe Spanish. I want to keep going with my forever passion. I want to be a translater, an interpreter. As my motto is "Never give up", I believe I will stick to it and never stop my love with it.
      I'm a Dream Catcher, and I will try my best to make my dreams come true!!!
