Why Did You Choose Your Major? [#2]

　　　The reasons why I chose my major are because of money and interest. When I was a 12-year-old girl,I was attracted to computer. Why after typing only a few keys, then I could get a lot of information on the screen? How could I get the e-mails from people who live in other countries just in a few seconds? Although the transmission time was a little slow actually, I was curious about the mysteries inside of computers.

　　　It was the first time that I had to choose one major for myself after I graduated from junior high school. But it is not an easy thing to do, so I asked my parents for help. They just gave me some advices, and told me that I had to make a decision by myself, because it is my own way, not theirs. By thinking carefully for a few days, I set my goal in being rich. Then I was on the outlook for finding a good job for my future so that I can earn lots of money. Hence, I made up my mind to choose a hot department which is named information management (IM). If I concentrate on my study more, I will be more professional of IM than anyone else someday. Therefore, I will be rich in the future. Although everyone thinks it is difficult to achieve, I looked it as a challenge and faced it courageously.

　　　Also, it was not only for money, but also for the most important factor- my interest. I remembered after touching the real computer in front of me the first time, I had a special feeling in my mind. It seems like a motive power which attracts me to catch it. Then I found out that I really would like to get to know more about computers and Internet. After that, I searched the resources on the Internet and tried to write some codes using programming language which is named Visual Basic. I really enjoyed it and had a lot of fun. It is a good way to keep up concentrating on my study, too.

　　　In conclusion, not only because IM was the most popular department that everyone wanted to choose, but also it is interesting. With my own strong will and great interest, I think it is still the best decision I had done by myself to choose Information Management to be my major that year.
