   Alex: So Maria, what are your future plans?


 
  Maria: Future plans, that's a big question. I would like to have an nice career. I'm not really sure what it would be. I would love to be a CEO of some place, some place big but I don't need to. I just want to have a prestigious 1 job because I'm that kind of person and I want to have a nice pay and I want, I think it's more important to me to have, it keep on being interesting. I'm very afraid of just ending up with a job that just bores me to death or something. I do want a family. I hope I'm about to find the guy I will have a family with in the next couple of years because otherwise I'll have to start looking and I'd rather have the love at first sight thing or just like having it be normal instead of just having to look for it like those desperate 2 women you see in the TV. Have a nice house maybe in Denmark I'm not sure. I love big cities and Copenhagen is awesome 3 but I'm not sure if it's big enough for me. I might go to Tokyo, a place I studied Japanese and I might go to or I might go to another European country. I have something with Holland 4. I keep getting friends from Holland or connections and I get attracted to Dutch 5 people for some reason so Amsterdam is a choice. My parents wouldn't mind me going to Amsterdam. They want me close. I just, I don't know, I would like my future to be kind of unclear.
 
  Alex: OK.
 
  Maria: Because I have friends who've known 6 they wouldn't want to be a doctor or a nurse or a teacher since they were five and that's just I need to be able to change whenever I can.
 
  Alex: Do you think you would change your career if you felt that it got too boring or...?
 
  Maria: I don't think I know I will change. I will just say phew.
 
  Alex: So you'd want to be able to fit your work to your life as opposed 7 to the other way around?
 
  Maria: I might be a little self-centered because I have to be satisfied 8. I can't just, I have had jobs like part time jobs or very short time jobs just because I had time and I get impatient 9 very fast if it's not, if it doesn't work for me I just hate getting up in the morning and if it's going to be my life. Studying and having a part time job you can live with it. You can live with a bad job but having to do it every day, having to do a bad job every day just like it seems pointless to me.
