? what happened during a day
? how you felt or how you feel now

Today, I found out some facts about a job as a male nurse. I am quite interested in the job and think I am qualified for it. Therefore, I have decided to be a male nurse after graduation.
I told my parents about my decision. At first, they were strongly against my choice and tried to persuade me to give it up. They thought that it was a job that better suits women than men and that I might be as busy as a bee every day. However, I explained that times are changing and nursing is no longer a career for girls only. In contrast, more male angels in white are in great need. Many ordinary jobs like the nurse may look dull, but they are as essential as water to our society. Besides, I was so caring, practical, patient and hard-working that I could make an excellent carer.
In the end, they agreed to my choice. I felt as happy as a king because they understood and support my decision.
I think I will study hard to make myself a qualified nurse. I feel that it is the ideal career for me.What do you like about being a cleaner?Japanese cleanersIf no one was to collect the rubbish,...mountains of rubbishmouse disaster If no one was to collect the rubbish, the streets would soon become very dirty and unpleasant, the number of rats would increase and disease would spread.
Without cleaners, there would be mountains of rubbish in the street over one night, and thus a mouse disaster would occur.
Many ordinary jobs may look dull, but they are as essential as water to society.
These people perform such ordinary but vital tasks that they allow us to go about our daily life.Different careers need different qualities.If you want to succeed in life, you need to be as hungry as a lion.Wish everybody good luck in the future!All the jobs help society fun_ction.Homework Please write another diary about cleaners and think about what you really want to do in the future.
