Dear Cousin,
As you know, I will graduate (毕业) in a few months and I can’t decide what I should do after graduation. I had planned a two-month trip to Argentina. I’m sure it will be fantastic. But I just found out that I have been accepted for the internship (实习期) at American Airlines. If I work hard, perhaps they will offer me a job at the end of the summer. This happened to another student last summer. Both are great, but I really need your help in making the right decision.
If I travel to Argentina, I can relax and have fun with my friends. I have never taken a vacation with them and this might be the last time we can all travel together. Once I start working, it will be difficult to find so much time for a vacation. As for the internship, if I take it, I probably won’t get any time to relax. I will have to start the day after graduation and I’ll be busy working all the time. It will be very stressful.
Despite (尽管) the stress, it will be a good start for me to work for American Airlines. Although I won’t get paid, I will get experience. However, traveling to Argentina will let me practice my Spanish and I know that many companies (公司) want people with good Spanish skills. I also promised my friends that I would go with them. I really don’t want to let them down.
What should I do? I’m looking forward to your advice.
Yours,
Susan
